Rosalie’s anger was appeased upon seeing Sebastian backing down.She turned to say to Yerick, “Yerry, I’m sorry. Seb has become more cautious now, and doesn’t mean any harm. Don’t count it against him.”“It’s fine, Rose. I won’t count it against him. He’s just worried about you, and I can understand that. You’re husband and wife, after all. He surely wouldn’t be happy seeing you with another man by your side.”Yerick was forgiving and magnanimous in his reply, clearly showing that he wasn’t upset while being understanding that Sebastian simply cared much about Rosalie. However, he seemed to be hinting at something.Sebastian clenched his fists, catching the underlying meaning that Yerick was hinting at.Was Yerick trying to insinuate that he was petty?Rosalie glanced at Sebastian, suddenly at a loss for words.Theodore infuriated him, and so did Yerick.Who did she know that wouldn’t make him mad? Was he going to get jealous with every single person of the opposite gender sh

After a while, the police left.Sebastian immediately entered the ward. “Rose, are you alright?”The police’s return to ask her more questions was akin to making her relive the suffering she endured previously.Rosalie sat on the bed, gripping the sheets tightly. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”Sebastian sat on the bed, hugging her gently and pulling her into his arms. “I’m here. No matter what happens, I’ll protect you. I’ll never let you go through that again.”His dark gaze landed on Yerick.Yerick walked over, and sat on the chair by the bedside.“Rose, the police will surely find the bastard who kidnapped you. I feel so bad for you, Rose. You always encounter the most unfortunate incidents. Heaven is way too unkind to you.”Tears started falling from Yerick’s eyes.Rosalie immediately sat up, and pulled away from Sebastian’s embrace. “Yerry, don’t cry. I’m fine. I look perfectly fine right now, don’t I?”“Rose, you must have been so frightened.”Sebastian’s brows were tightly

Sebastian said it all without batting an eyelid.“Thank you, Seb,” Yerick said joyfully. “I was worried for a moment that you wouldn’t say yes. This is great. I have friends now, I love you all!” Yerick flashed him a heart sign.Sebastian said with a smile, “Look at you, behaving like a girl.”“So what if I do?” Yerick countered, “Girls are great. Rose is a girl.”Sebastian shook his head helplessly. “Fine, alright. Do whatever you want.”‘See how I get my hands on you, you brat,’ Sebastian thought to himself.The three of them went on eating their dinner.At the start, Rosalie was worried that Sebastian might not take to Yerick well, but since he made things clear, she naturally did not need to worry anymore and chatted even more happily with Yerick.Sebastian felt like he was invisible once more, sitting there looking at them talking up a storm.There was a smudge of sauce on the corner of Yerick’s lips, and Rosalie wiped it away with a napkin. “Look at that mess! You’re e

“Yerick, you’re already eighteen years old and of age now. How could you behave like a child?”Rosalie scolded him as if he were a child. In fact, she was merely three years older than Yerick.Yerick bowed his head, looking pitiful. “I’m sorry, Rose. I was wrong.”“Don’t act pitiful. Do you think that will make me give in to you?”Sebastian suddenly chuckled. It was great that Rosalie saw the true colors of this pretentious two-faced brat.“What’s so funny?” Rosalie immediately turned her attention to Sebastian. “Are you very proud of what you’ve done?”The smile on Sebastian’s face faded. “I didn’t mean that.”Rosalie was too much. How could she bring him down like this in front of Yerick?“If that’s not what you mean, why did you laugh? Weren’t you as immature as he was? Pretending to have a headache and collapsing weakly on the floor. Why don’t you go be an actor, since you have such great acting chops?”Sebastian forced a smile. “Rose, my head really hurts! Ouch…”He star

“I’m due for an operation tomorrow, and the doctor advised me not to run around and tire myself out. It’s also not good if it affects my baby. I can’t put my baby on the line right now,” Rosalie explained.Her worried look told of her strong desire to go visit Theodore, no matter what it took.She could very well do so, but she was carrying his baby in her womb, and she had to consider the baby’s well-being.“Does Seb know that you wanted to visit Theodore today?” Yvonne asked.Rosalie nodded. “He knows. He knew about it last night. He wanted to bring me there today, but we couldn’t after hearing the doctor’s advice.”“I see.” The gears in Yvonne’s head shifted as a thought came to mind.Why did something sound strange?The more Rosalie thought about it, the more upset she was. “I wonder how tomorrow’s operation will go. I really want to see him. If only he would answer my call.”“Rose, you know where Theodore is right now, don’t you?”Rosalie nodded. “I do.”“Why don’t I dri
