    Theodore took his original pills to a pharmaceutical quality testingboratory. He knew someone from there who did aposition analysis on the pills.


    The results showed that it was a legitimate psychoactive drug prescribed by the hospital and there were no issues with it.


    Theodore wanted to test the pills because he suspected that someone switched out the pills, but based on the test results, the pills were exactly what the doctor had previously prescribed.


    Perhaps he was overthinking.


    He had been exceeding the dosage during this period. The doctor had reminded him about the strong side effects of the pill and warned him to strictly follow his instructions, but he didn''t heed the doctor''s orders. He deserved whatever happened to him.


    For a long time, he had been relying on medication to maintain his mental state, which was hanging by a thread. Otherwise, the thought of death was always haunting him.


    Theodore drove back home.


    Upon hearing his car, Aurora immediately ran out.


    Theodore walked over with a cold look. "We...we need to talk."


    "If you''re talking aboutst night, it''s alright, I can pretend nothing happened. Don''t feel burdened in any way. I won''t ask you to take responsibility, either. I won''t tell anyone about it," Aurora said.


    Aurora was very worried that Theodore might feel burdened and wanted to be the first to assure him of it. However, Theodore''s face didn''t change much and he continued looking coldly at her.


    "Theo, what''s the matter? Do you feel unwell? Or do you feel burdened in any way? Just tell me about it and we can solve it together. I don''t need you to take responsibility."


    "Aurora, I took you as Rosest night," Theodore said icily without any hint of warmth. "You know that better than I do, right?"


    He only remembered seeing Rosaliest night. Even if it was an illusion, that was the only memory he had ofst night.


    The look on Aurora''s face froze for a second before she lowered her head. "I know, but it''s fine. I don''t mind. I know you have feelings for her and I won''t bear a grudge against you or get jealous about it. I understand you."


    "Aurora, you don''t need to


    understand me. I lost controlst night, and I think we can''t go on like this. It''s great you don''t need me to take responsibility for it." He pulled out his wallet from his pocket and retrieved a check. "Take this money and leave. Let''s not see each other from now on."


    Since what happenedst night had happened, there was nothing much left for Theodore to say. However, he couldn''t take responsibility for Aurora just because of that. He couldn''t bring himself to do it.


    Seeing the check in Theodore''s hand, Aurora''s face stiffened. "What are you doing? I don''t want money. I said you don''t need to take responsibility for what happened. Can''t we be friends? Why must you..."


    "Aurora," Theodore cut her off. "It''s impossible between us. Your cousin caused my grandmother''s death and I can''t ept it."


    Aurora smiled bitterly, her heart breaking into a million pieces.


    "So I have to be punished for Angie''s mistake? In that case, you really shouldn''t have saved me when I tried to kill myself. If you thought it was my fault, you should have made me pay the price when I tried tomit suicide. Why are you telling me this only now?"


    "I know it''s not your fault," Theodore rified. "You don''t have to die


    because of a mistake you didn''tmit. But she''s your cousin, and I can''t bear absolutely no

    against you. The best solution is for us to never see each other again." novelbin


    "Theo, you''re so cruel," Aurora said as she started sobbing.


    "I am cruel, and a bastard at that. You should have known that a long time ago."


    Theodore had no choice but to act cold-hearted to dash all of Aurora''s hopes.


    "I will continue having my men search for your ex-boyfriend and sending bodyguards to protect you at your house. You won''t be harmed, but you can''t stay here any longer. Please leave."


    With that, he stuffed the check in her hands and walked into the vi, not caring whether she wanted the money or not.


    The check drifted in the wind from Aurora''s hand to the ground.
