"If you don't touch other women, you can tell me the truth from the start. Tell me what you were going to do or where you were going. But you hid everything. You hid everything. What can I trust from someone like this? You and your closed-mindedness are two realities I can't beat. I'm tired, Theo. It's better if we go our separate ways. I'm going to ask Lion to help me as my lawyer to file the divorce papers." Rose stopped her long sentence with a deep breath. She took a long look at Theo's throat which seemed to rise and fall. It looked like the man was preparing to say something. Theo's body slowly retreated. This did not go unnoticed by Rose, even until Theo sat on the edge of the bed and turned his back to her. "My plan, which I kept all this time could leak in the hands of a mafia. That's when I keep it to myself. Now can you explain to me, what would be the possibility of my plan not being leaked when I tell you or everyone here, if I go to aven

"I don't understand what you mean here. You can explain it to me directly. No need to beat around the bush." Theo wiped off sheet after sheet of reports from Travis without interest. Ever since Rose handed him the divorce papers, nothing had caught Theo's attention. For almost half a day he had been languishing in the study, doing nothing, just leaning back on the long sofa... closing his eyes with his head resting on the back before Travis came in with something he didn't try to digest properly. "The letter is regarding Miss Rose's condition, sir. You'll be pleased to hear it." "I told you not to beat around the bush." Theo's gray nether-eyes again closed indifferently. Now resting both feet on the glass table and fingers interlocked on the surface of the muscular abdomen. "Sorry about this, sir. After further examination, we discovered a mistake, that Miss Rose could be pregnant." Travis knew full well that Theo proba

On the rooftop, Rose was supposed to enjoy the tranquility of being alone. Shaking off the bad thoughts of things lodged in the back of her mind. Theo's attitude had been avoiding her a little since they each dispersed from the training room, which was also the reason why Rose preferred to pass the remaining time where she stood. Rose looked up to let the tendrils of the wind brush against her face. The woman's lips curved to accept the faint whispered gusts in the ear. Indeed, there was not much that Rose did. The massiveness of the peace that lingered made her feel at home. Nothing disturbed her... until a burst of water broke the sound of splashing through the night sky. Rose's attention was distracted. She moved slightly, watching the perfect body of someone—believed to be her husband, merge with the liquid. Rose's guess was right. She vaguely saw Theo half-float from one corner to another and kept doing it over and over again. W

Once the man was done. His hair was wet, some of it dangling over his forehead. Theo's every activity is silently highlighted through the reflection of the glass. Rose watched his back. Theo was deep in thought about something, which Rose couldn't possibly ask him outright. They were both silent. The sound of the hair dryer filled the room. Rose smoothed her half-dried blonde hair, never ceasing to make Theo her main object. The man was now sleeping sideways on the bed with his head still wet. "If you're going to sleep, make sure you're really ready for it," Rose said impatiently. Theo's behavior was exactly unruly, not even paying attention to her words, only the body occasionally moved—moving positions. "Theo!" Rose's tone was suddenly irritated. To her surprise, he had suddenly left her alone in the room. She had thought Theo wouldn't be back, but the door opened. Her husband entered with a glass of w

"What did you say?" The baritone voice was suddenly hoarse, typical of someone who had just been released from dreamland. In fact, Theo had spent half the day with only one activity. Sleeping. "Come on, get up. Axe is out front." Rose tugged on her husband's arm. It wasn't difficult, as Theo was in full support. Even in the midst of not fully regaining consciousness, the man planted his feet on the marble. "I lied. Axe isn't here." With a slight chuckle, Rose smoothed down the thick blanket that had been tossed randomly. Theo had to see his own condition before letting everyone see it. "Take a shower first. You really do look like a matted gorilla," Rose quipped, mimicking the sound of the largest primate. She didn't get a response or care what kind of tantrum Theo's reaction would be. "Quick shower after that—Theo!" screeched Rose as she was pulled into a large embrace and slamm
