Chapter 998


    ?


    In this world, perhaps only Aurora was willing to go along with his lies, cooperating in his deceptions and amodating him.


    No matter how strange his requests were, she epted them wholeheartedly without ever questioning him.


    Why was Aurora so good to him? She was so good that it pained him. Maybe one day, he would truly fall in love with her.


    "Mr. Carter, I have a few words I''d like to say to you," Aurora said. She gently released Theodore''s hand and walked over to stand in front of Sebastian.


    Theodore grabbed her hand. "Don''t go over there."


    "Theo, I just want to say a few words to him. Don''t worry. I trust Mr. Carter would never harm me here, especially since this is a hospital with so many security cameras. He couldn''t do anything reckless."


    The mention of "security cameras" seemed to carry an implied meaning.


    At that time, Sebastian had barged into Theodore''s house and damaged the security cameras.


    Sebastian understood the implication in Aurora''s words and let out a coldugh.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Aurora stepped up to Sebastian. "Mr. Carter, the conflict between you and Theodore started because of your wife. But I believe that with time, you both will let things go. Regardless, I hope you can take good care of your wife. After all, she''s Theodore''s ex-wife, and they grew up together like siblings."


    Aurora nced at Theodore as she continued, "So Rosalie''s happiness is what matters most. I trust that you can make her happy."


    Sebastian narrowed his eyes, gazing at Aurora with suspicion. What was this woman up to? What kind of nonsense was she saying to him? "Mr. Carter, Theodore''s sister is like my sister, and those he cares about are people I care about, no matter who they are."


    With tear-filled eyes, Aurora grabbed Sebastian''s hand. "Mr. Carter, I''m entrusting our Rosalie to you."


    Sebastian''s brow furrowed. He hadn''t expected Aurora to pull such a move. She was actually holding his hand-was she crazy?


    Yet, in that moment, he sensed something. Aurora seemed to be giving him some kind of look.


    Sebastian quickly withdrew his hand, responding coldly, "Miss Payne, you''re being presumptuous. What do you mean by ''our Rosalie''? She has nothing to do with you now She''s my Rosalie. Now that you two are expecting a child, lock it in. Don''te meddling in my and Rosalie''s life."


    After finishing, Sebastian turned and left, his footsteps exuding disdain.


    Theodore embraced Aurora from behind. "Aurora, what were you doing just now? Why did you say those things to him?"


    Aurora gently held Theodore''s hand. "Theo, I know how important Rosalie is to you. Although I get a bit jealous of her as a woman, my heart aches too, and feel envy-I also


    understand how much she means to you. If anything happened to her, or if she were unhappy, you wouldn''t be happy either. So, from the bottom of my heart, I want Rosalie to be happy."


    Aurora turned around, nestling into his arms and hugging his waist tightly.


    "I said those things to Sebastian just now to hopefully prevent him from causing you more trouble. If he can see that the two of us are truly happy, all the better. I don''t want any more conflicts between you two. If you were hurt, I''d be sad. If

    Sebastian were hurt, Rosalie would feel sad. And if Rosalie felt sad, then you would too. So, in the end, you would still be the one getting hurt. I don''t want that to happen."
