    It must have been him who triggered Aurora.


    She had heart disease and couldn''t handle such emotional turmoil. It was practically a death sentence.


    However, what else could he have done at the time? He couldn''t really treat Aurora as a mere substitute.


    Cynthia clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms.


    After a long while, she took a deep breath, calmed herself, and walked over to Theodore. "Theo, can you tell me what''s really going on? Who is she?" Theodore leaned against the wall, his eyes lowered. "She saved me."


    "What?" Cynthia was a bit surprised. "She saved you? When?"


    At the thought of it, Theodore''s heart ached again. Recalling that moment nearly took his breath away. "It''s in the past. I don''t want to talk about it anymore."


    He really didn''t want to discuss it any further, and changed the subject. "About the wedding... I''m sorry. I abandoned you."


    Cynthia bit her lip, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction and pain.


    "So, you do remember that you need to apologize to me. I thought you didn''t feel any guilt at all. After all, ever since the wedding, you haven''t contacted me. Theo, have you given me up?"


    Theodore straightened up, pushing himself off the wall, and said, "I can''t be with you anymore. You''ll meet a good man."


    "You..." Cynthia was furious. "Theo, you''re unbelievable! How many more people do you intend to hurt before you''re satisfied?" "Cindy," Theodore said coldly. "I don''t want to hurt you, which is why I can''t be with you. It wouldn''t be fair to you." "And who are you to decide what''s fair or not?" Cynthia shot back. "Shouldn''t that be up to me, the person involved?" Theodore fell silent. At this point, there was nothing more to say. Anything he said would only cause Cynthia more pain. Cynthia wiped the tears from her face. She didn''t press the issue any further, knowing it was pointless. Theodore had really given her up.


    She had heard that Rosalie and


    Sebastian had gone abroad, and


    was thrilled to hear the news


    Rosalie was gone. It would be best if she died abroad.


    Yet, Cynthia hadn''t expected another woman, Aurora, to appear by Theodore''s side so quickly. Moreover, she looked very much like Rosalie. "Cindy, why are you in the hospital?" Theodore suddenly thought to ask. Could it be that she was ill?


    Cynthia sighed. "The heart


    transnt surgery went well, but since this isn''t my heart, I have toe in for regr check-ups. The doctors found some minor issues, so they admitted me for a few days to monitor things more closely, just in case any problems arise."


    "What did the doctors say?" Theodore asked, clearly worried.


    He had already abandoned Cynthia and felt guilty about it. Now, hearing that her heart might have problems made him even more uneasy.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    If her heart really had issues, then all the efforts from before would be in vain.


    "The doctors said I should stay in


    the hospital for a few more days for observation: They''re not sure what''s going on yet. I just didn''t expect thating here would lead me to un into you-and that woman-while I was kept in the dark."


    "I''ve only known her for a few days," Theodore said. "And I don''t n on getting too close to her, so I didn''t think it was necessary to tell you."


    "Is that so? Not necessary?" Cynthia gave him a bitter smile. "Well, it seems we''re no longer necessary either."
