For Rosalie''s sake, he couldn''t start fighting Sebastian. It would only hurt her badly.
"That''s right," Theodore said indifferently.
He said nothing further beyond that.
Sebastian had thought that Theodore would p back with a retort, and didn''t expect him to agree with his words.
Although he didn''t remember much about Theodore, he had a very strong negative feeling about him. He felt that Theodore wasn''t one to agree so readily to what others say, especially his rival in love.
Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Theodore not pick a fight with Sebastian.
At the very least, Theodore backed down.
Cynthia furrowed her brows. "Theo, what''s going on?"
Sebastian was clearly provoking Theodore. Why was he not getting angry at all? He even agreed to Sebastian''s words. Was he mad? Was he holding himself back for Rosalie''s sake?
Cynthia was fuming.
Rosalie didn''t enjoy this meal one bit. She didn''t expect to bump into them here, and least of all, that she would have lunch with Theodore and Cynthia.
The four of them didn''t talk much after that.
After lunch, Theodore asked, "Where are you two nning to go after lunch?"
"We''ll be walking around," Rosalie said.
"Let''s go together, the four of us..."
"No," Rosalie cut him off. "I don''t like double dates."
Having lunch together was the greatestpromise she could make. She couldn''t possibly spend the entire afternoon staring at Theodore!
Sebastian grabbed Rosalie''s hand, and said, "Yes, Rose and I want some alone time in the afternoon."
Theodore scoffed. "What, worried that I''ll snatch her away?"
Sebastian''s eyes narrowed as he said indifferently, "We''ll see if you have what it takes to do that."
Upon sensing the tension build up. again, Rosalie immediately said, "You two have such high status in
society. Please don''t joke around like this."
Cynthia was confused by Rosalie''s words. Theodore was clearly the only one with a high status in society. That description had
nothing to do with Sebastian
was a mere waiter. What''s the big deal with him?
Rosalie was shameless enough to say something like that. Was she trying to boost her husband''s ego? How sad.
Theodore crossed his arms against his chest and took a deep breath. "Okay."
He decided to stop ying a fool, and listen to Rosalie.
He then signaled for the waiter. "The bill, please."
Lily walked over with the bill in hand.
Theodore was about to take the bill, when Sebastian beat him to it and grabbed the bill. "Let me."
He signed his name on the bill, and pulled out a card from his pocket.
Theodore furrowed his brows; he was about to say something, when Rosalie said, "Let Sebastian take this. It''ll be our treat this time." “That''s not too good," Cynthia said. “Theo booked the entire restaurant. It won''t be cheap."
"Do you think I can''t afford it?"
Sebastian looked coldly at Cynthia. She looked like a nasty person right from the get-go, and she disgusted him.
Cynthia smiled. “Why would I think so? I just think there''s no need for you to go to such an expense, when it''s just peanuts for Theo."
Lily sensed something wrong with Cynthia''s words. ''Why does thisdy sound as though she thinks that Mr. Carter is very poor?''
Sebastian was the CEO of Skycrest Enterprise. If he were poor, there wouldn''t be rich people in this world.
Sebastian ignored Cynthia, and said to Lily, "Take it."
"Okay, Mr. Carter," Lily said as she took the card.
She addressed him very courteously, as if trying to remind someone of something.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
