She was eager to witness the battlefield.

You’re right! If they end up fighting each other, that would be perfect.”

That way, he wouldn’t have to get his hands dirty.

The nurse nodded. “Just wait. The opportunity will come. They’ll definitely fight over your friend. You don’t need to worry too much. You’re smart, so I’m sure she’ll have her own plans.”

“Exactly.” Yerick’s smile grew more radiant.

However, for him, opportunities were never something one simply waited for-. they were things he created with his own hands. If he wanted it, it would happen.

“Are you feeling better?” the nurse asked.

Yerick nodded. “Much better.”

The nurse sighed in relief. “That’s good.”

Yerick’s lips curled into a barely perceptible, sinister smile. “Let’s keep our conversation today between us.

The nurse patted her chest reassuringly. “Don’t worry! I won’t tell anyone.”

“Good, I trust you. But I really don’t like being lied to. If you do tell someone, then I’ll…” Yerick paused, as if contemplating what he might do.

“You’ll what?” the nurse asked, curious.

Yerick’s smile turned dark. “I’ll kill you and scatter your ashes.”

An icy chill swept over the nurse. She shivered, feeling as if she had been doused in ice–cold water, the cold seeping into her very soul.

Seeing her stunned reaction, Yerick suddenly laughed. “Haha, did I scare you?”

The nurse came to her senses when she saw his grin, and managed a shaky smile. “So, you were just joking. You really frightened me!”

Moments ago, she had been terrified out of her wits.

Yerick continued to smile. “That was not a joke. I’m serious.”

The nurse’s smile vanished instantly.

Yerick’s gaze was intense and unyielding as he enunciated, “So watch out.”

The room fell silent as they stared at each other. After a long pause, the nurse felt a strong urge to escape, sensing that Yerick was much more than he appeared.

“Haha.” Yerick chuckled with a childlike demeanor while pointing at her. Gotcha! Looks like my acting is pretty good–maybe I should play a villain.”

The nurse’s emotions were tossed about like a rollercoaster.

“You talk as if it were real. You really would make a great villain; you even have the good looks for it! Why not just become an actor?”

“Anyone can be an actor–even idiots and monkeys. But what I want to do isn’t. something just anyone can accomplish.”

Yerick’s expression turned serious as he fixed his gaze on her.

The nurse was momentarily stunned but, after a moment’s reflection, realized he was likely performing again, and she laughed. “True, you do seem clever. You’re destined to contribute to human progress.”

“Yes, I’ll make significant contributions,” Yerick said deliberately, word by word.

A week had passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Rosalie had experienced a peaceful week in the hospital, frequently visiting Yerick and chatting with him.

But most of her time was spent with Sebastian.

She hadn’t seen Theodore lately. He seemed to have disappeared from the hospital. She didn’t ask about him; they were akin to the closest of strangers.

Rosalie felt something was off, but on reflection, everything seemed normal. It was probably for the best–avoiding random encounters and unnecessary complications was better than dealing with bizarre, meaningless

Yerick was being discharged today, and Rosalle had been bustling around early in the morning to take care of all the paperwork and arrangements for him.

Rosalie walked Yerick to the hospital entrance. Though he was being discharged, he still needed time to recover and would require someone to look

after him.

She had already covered the cost of a caregiver to assist him until he was fully

healed.

; waiting. She

At the hospital entrance, the car Rosalie had arranged released the wheelchair and moved to stand in front of Yerick.

“Yerry, Chloe will take you home for now. She’ll be there to take care of you, so don’t worry.”

“Rose, thanks so much. I promise I’ll pay you back.”

“There’s no rush. Just focus on recovering. Don’t think about the rest for now.”

“Thanks, you’re so nice to me,” Yerick said, his eyes brimming with tears; he looked as if he might start crying.

“Come on, Yerry. Don’t cry, or I’ll have to punch you,” Rosalie said, patting him gently on the head. “You need to focus on getting better.”

Yerick nodded vigorously. “Yes, I understand. I’ll work hard. Once I start earning money, I’ll buy you a big house. I won’t hire a servant; I’ll take care of you myself. I’ll help you get dressed, bring you water, make your bed, and-”

“Alright, alright,” Rosalie interrupted, “you’re getting carried away.”

“Carried away? I’m serious,” Yerick insisted earnestly. “I really want to buy you a beautiful big house.”

Rosalie smiled helplessly. “Alright, then. I’ll wait for you to buy me that big house. For now, focus on getting healthy. Your health is the most important thing.”

Yerick nodded with determination. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

After seeing Yerick off, Rosalie went back inside the hospital.

In the car, Chloe couldn’t help but ask, “Is that the girl you told me about?”

“Yes,” Yerick confirmed with a nod.

Chloe seemed to sense something. “Do you have feelings for her?”

It was pretty clear they weren’t just siblings or friends.

Yerick put his finger to his lips, whispering conspiratorially, “Shh, keep it quiet. Don’t let anyone else hear. It’s a secret.”

Chloe nodded. “Got it. But I heard her husband is also in this hospital.”

“Yes,” Yerick said, sounding displeased. “She’s been taking care of him all the time. It’s so frustrating. With all his money, can’t he fi after him?”

someone else to look

Seeing the jealousy in Yerick’s expression, Chloe found him rather endearing.” It seems like shes quite popular. I think I saw her talking to another man in the hospital before–things seemed pretty tense.

Yerick’s face darkened immediately. “That’s her ex–husband. He’s always bothering her. It’s so annoying.”

“Wow! She must be something special to have two handsome men around her.”

“Handsome? What’s the use of being handsome?” Yerick suddenly turned, his voice harsh. “It doesn’t do any good. They only make her life miserable. Being handsome doesn’t put food on the table. A splash of acid would reveal their true selves!”

If he wanted, he could make them disappear without a trace! These superficial admirers were a bunch of idiots!

Chloe stared at him, stunned.

Seeing the shock in Chloe’s wide eyes, Yerick suddenly burst into laughter.” Haha, look at you, so easily frightened. Just a little scare, and you’re all

flustered.”

Chloe exhaled in frustration. “You really shouldn’t scare me like that. You know I’m easily startled.”

Chapter 543

“You can’t even handle a little scare. If someone actually tried to kill you, you’d probably pee your pants!”

Yerick was curious to see how Chloe would react if faced with a real threat. The fear of death on this woman’s face would surely be fascinating to observe.

“You’re so morbid, talking about killing and stuff. Even though you’re my employer, I’m going to stop taking care of you if you keep scaring me. You’ll have to find someone else,” Chloe said, genuinely upset.

“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. After all, you’re older than me. I should show you some respect.”

Chloe rolled her eyes. “Respect? I’m only twenty–two, jus rour years older than you. I’m not that old!”

Yerick’s brows furrowed instantly, his gaze turning cold and distant.

Chloe felt a chill from his grim look. Though he hadn’t said a word, the eerie atmosphere seemed to suffocate her.

“You’re so timid,” Yerick said, pointing at her. “And you have the nerve to emphasize you’re older than me?”

Chloe pouted. “I’m not timid. I just…”

She found herself at a loss for words. After a moment’s hesitation, she finally said, “If you don’t want to admit I’m older, then fine.”

Honestly, though, she was curious to hear Yerick call out her name in respect. There was something sweet and charming about the way he addressed. Rosalie, even though he wore a different face in private.

She couldn’t shake the feeling that he might have a bit of a… yandere side.

Rosalie was heading towards Sebastian’s hospital room when Theodore approached her in the hallway.

She came to a halt.

It had been a week since she last saw him, and she felt a strange sensation-

sappeared in front of her after being absent.

the feeling was both foreign and familiar

Do you remember what we’re doing today?” Theodore asked.

Rosalie looked up. “Yes, we’re going to that wedding Grandma mentioned.”

Theodore glanced at his watch. “We should be heading out now. We’ll be back this afternoon.”

“Alright, I’ll go tell Sebastian. Can you wait for me here?”

Theodore nodded, leaning against the wall with his hands in his pockets, patiently waiting for her.

Rosalie suddenly felt disoriented, as if familiar scenes from the part were flashing before her eyes. It was like being transported back to a me before

their divorce.

Back then, their relationship was gentle and serene.

Rosalie had never understood why Theodore left her for Cynthia–was it really

love?

If he loved Cynthia so much, why did he show such care and affection to

another woman?

Their memories were devoid of arguments and doubts. He had been attentive and caring, and she had thought him a responsible person. Even if he didn’t love her, he still treated her well as his wife.

When he brought up divorce, however, he didn’t hesitate and was completely

indifferent.

It was only later that Theodore told her he had always loved her. That was when she realized their marriage had been harmonious; not because of ant illusion, but because they genuinely loved each other. Unfortunately, neither had expressed this openly. Both doubted the other.

Perhaps their love wasn’t pure enough. Otherwise, why would there have been. any doubts?

“What’s wrong?” Theodore asked, noticing Rosalie lost in thought.

Chapter 544

Rosalie snapped back to reality, and shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’ll be right back

She turned and walked away, with Theodore watching her retreating figure.

Back in the hospital room, Rosalie explained to Sebastian that she needed to attend a wedding. She conveniently left out that Theodore would be

accompanying her.

Given Sebastian’s current condition, mentioning Theodore’s name would require further explanation. Rosalie feared such a revelation might be too much for Sebastian to handle, especially if he believed that all his memories were incorrect.

“Seb, I’ll try to be back as quickly as I can. Rest well, and if you need anything, just give me a call.”

“It’s alright, Rose. Just go. It’s actually nice to see you busy with your own life,” Sebastian replied, settling back into his pillows.

Rosalie tucked him in. “I’ll go now. I’ll bring you some candy when I return.”

Sebastian chuckled. “Honey, do you think of me as a child?”

“Yep, I’m treating you like one. So, you’d better grow up quickly.”

Sometimes Rosalie would tease him, and it would always make them both smile.

Sebastian nodded. “I’ll grow up quickly and be a real husband for you.”

Rosalie’s smile faltered; after a long pause, she forced a smile and said, “I’ll be going now.”

Once Rosalie left, Sebastian’s smile faded, replaced by a slight frown. A fleeting look of confusion and a hint of unease crossed his dark eyes.

Why did she always avoid intimacy when he said something affectionate?

It wasn’t just avoidance in words, but in actions and expressions as well. It was as if she didn’t want them to get too close. But they were married, after all. Kissing, hugging, even sleeping together should be normal. So why the

voldance?

Especially the last time he kissed her he had clearly noticed her anxious look.

Her avoidance wasn’t obvious; he hadn’t thought much about it at first, but as it happened more frequently, It felt off. However, he just couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong.

Rosalie arrived at Theodore’s side.

“Let’s go.”

Theodore stood upright. “Have you told Sebastian?”

Rosalie nodded. “Yes.”

“Did you tell him we’re going together?”

Rosalie replied, “That’s none of your concern. I don’t want to answer that.”

She wasn’t angry or indifferent, just calmi

Theodore’s eyebrows twitched slightly before he nodded. “Alright.”

She clearly hadn’t told Sebastian.

Rosalie let out a small sigh of relief. At least he wasn’t being as persistent as he used to be. It seemed that since the last conversation in the car, something about him had changed.

“What kind of clothes do you like? I’ll take you shopping,” he offered.

“No need,” Rosalie said. “I’ll just wear what I have on.”

She had specifically chosen a loose, light green dress for today. It was elegant and well–suited to cover her slightly rounded belly.

As her stomach grew, her clothes had become looser to conceal her pregnancy.

“You’re wearing that?” Theodore eyed her up and down. “Are you sure?”

Rosalie glanced at herself. “What’s wrong with this? It’s a pretty expensive dress. It shouldn’t embarrass you.”

Theodore nodded. “Alright. You look great in that outfit. You look good in anything.”

In fact, he wanted to say that she would look even better if she weren’t wearing anything and that he was the only one who could see her naked. Unfortunately, he no longer had that opportunity.

What used to be easy for him to experience and enjoy, he now couldn’t even

express.

Theodore couldn’t help but think of Rosalie and Sebastian, wondering whether that man had seen Rosalie without anything on.

Noticing the flicker of concern in Theodore’s eyes, R lie asked, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

Theodore shook his head. “No, it’s nothing. Let’s go.”

He pressed the elevator button, and when the doors opened, they both stepped

inside.

Not far away, Yvonne ran over and repeatedly pressed the elevator button, but it was too late; the elevator was already descending. From a distance, she had seen Rosalie and Theodore standing together and stepping into the elevator, seemingly headed somewhere together.

Worried Theodore might harm Rosalie, Yvonne quickly pulled out her phone and called Rosalie.

As soon as Rosalie exited the elevator, she received Yvonne’s call and answered immediately. “Hello?”

“Rose, where are you right now?”

“I’m out for a bit.”

“Oh? Where are you going?”

“I’m attending a friend’s wedding.”

“A friend? Which friend?”

“A friend of my grandmother’s.”

“Oh I see. Are you going alone?”

Yes Rosalie replied. Tm going alone. Don’t worry, I be back soon.

Rosalie didn’t mention she was going with Theodore. After all, it was just a wedding. Once she returned, it would be as if nothing had happened. If she had told Yvonne, it might provoke Sebastian, and others might worry. But for her grandmother’s sake, she had to go with Theodore.

“Alright, then. Have a good time,” Yvonne said.

Thanks. If Seb needs anything, call me immediately.”

Yvonne hummed in reply. “Alright, goodbye.”

After ending the call, Yvonne looked puzzled.

She said she was going alone, but why did she net into the elevator with Theodore?

Yvonne didn’t dwell on it. She carried the flowers into Sebastian’s room, and found him staring off into space.

“Seb, what’s wrong?”

Sebastian snapped back to reality and turned. “You’re here.”

He didn’t remember this sister, but she felt familiar, as if they had a good relationship before.

When their father had visited him earlier, he had instinctively felt some resistance. Their relationship before the accident might not have been great.

“Seb, did Rose go out?”

Sebastian nodded. “Yes, she’s going to a wedding today.”

“Oh, she mentioned it to you.

Yvonne had thought Rosalie was keeping it from Sebastian, who seemed entirely dependent on Rosalie.

Nevertheless, it was clear Sebastian didn’t know Rosalie was meeting Theodore today.

Sebastian nodded. “She told me. I hope she can spend more time doing her own things. I feel guilty that she spends so much time on me.”

“Seb, don’t think like that. Your situation is special right now. She wants to be with you, and it makes her feel at ease.”

“She said the same thing to me,” Sebastian said, his voice tinged with sadness. “But as her husband, I can’t do anything for her. I feel so ashamed. I wish I could get better quickly to protect her.”

A trace of sadness flickered in Yvonne’s eyes.

What to do?

Sebastian and Rosalie were cousins, but how, Sebastian had amnesia. Hel thought Rosalie was truly his wife, and had fallen for her. It was hard to imagine how he would react when the truth came out.

“I wish I could go with Rose to the wedding. I can’t even accompany her to see her grandmother. I’m really a useless husband.”

Hearing Sebastian’s sighs, Yvonne tried to comfort him. “Seb, don’t say that. Once you’re better, everything will be resolved.”

“Yes, but… I might never remember.” Sebastian said, his gaze falling. “I don’t know where Rose is now, or what kind of wedding she’s attending. I really wish I could be there with her. If she’s alone there and people ask where her husband is, what will she say? I really wish I could do something for her.”

He sighed deeply, and turned his head. “Thank you for coming to see me, but, I’d like to be alone for a while, if that’s alright.”

Yvonne nodded. “Of course. I won’t disturb you any further. I’ll go get busy.”

“Alright. Thanks for coming,” Sebastian murmured.

After Yvonne left the hospital, she went to the underground parking lot. Just as she was about to drive away, she saw the elevator doors open, and Theodore and Rosalie walked into the parking lot.

She had thought they had already left.

She quickly stepped aside and watched as they drew closer, clearly hearing their conversation.

“Rose, if you’re not feeling well, it’s okay to skip it.”

“I’m not unwell. I’m fine to go.”

“Really?”

Seeing the doubt in Theodore’s eyes, Rosalie said, “I just went to the restroom. Does that mean I’m unwell? If so, everyone in the world must be unwell.”

Rosalie sighed softly. “Alright. I know you’re worried, but I’m really fine. Don’t make a fuss.”

Theodore gave a small nod, still looking concerned.

They both got into the car and drove away.

Once Yvonne saw their car leave the parking lot, she followed. m.

The wedding was a grand affair.

At that moment, they had to present themselves as a couple. Rosalie had to link her arm with Theodore’s, playing the part of a loving spouse for the

Every smile and every word showcased the elegance of a high–society lady, with Theodore acting as more of a backdrop. He watched her throughout, his gaze filled with tenderness.

He gazed at her profile, admiring her smiling face, longing to kiss her. He missed her so much–her presence, her heart, and her body.

Noticing Theodore’s intense gaze, Rosalie turned to him and asked, “What are you thinking about?”

Theodore gave a faint smile. “It’s nothing I just haven’t seen you smile like that In a long time. It’s beautiful.”

He wanted her.

So you’re saying that I’m ugly when I don’t smile?” Rosalie asked, looking at him seriously.

Theodore quickly replied, “Of course not.

Even when she wasn’t smiling, he wanted her underneath him.

Inside, he was burning with desire, but his face showed signs of panic. “Rose… What I meant was…

“Alright.” Rosalie smiled lightly. “I was just teasing you.”

She wasn’t sure what had come over her, she just wanted to joke with him. He was usually so serious and composed, and seeing him flustered was oddly amusing. It seemed she had figured out how to make him nervous.

“Why would you do that to me, Rose?” He looked at her with a hint of resentment.

“You’ve bullied me so many times, is it so wrong for me to tease you a bit?”

Rosalie said this in jest, but seeing Theodore’s slightly changed expression, she realized some jokes should not be made.

He took her casual joke seriously.

There shouldn’t be any misunderstandings between them. He had hurt her too deeply for her to accept him again. Even though she didn’t hate him, she didn’t want to love him anymore.

As Rosalie said those words, her heart felt as if it was being brutally stabbed, bleeding. Yet on the surface, she remained calm, her gaze steady.

“If I gave you any false hope, I’m sorry. I’m here today only because of our grandmother. So let’s just get through this task and report b to her. Please don’t read too much into it.”

Theodore forced a tight smile. “Sorry, I need to excuse myself.”

He turned and left, his fingers trembling. He feared that if he stayed any longer, he might lose control.

Theodore’s cold voice echoed ominously through the room.

“Love alone isn’t enough. Being an idiot can destroy everything, even if you’re a match made in heaven.”

The moment Theodore’s words rang out, the room fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on him.

At this point, the host stepped in to smooth things over. “What Mr. Spencer means is that marriage is a long and complex journey, and it requires patience and understanding. But I’m sure with the bride and groom working together, they can overcome any obstacles, just as Mrs. Spencer said!”

“No.” Theodore flatly dismissed the host’s attempt at clarification. “So–called patience and understanding are often just our own assumptions. What the other person truly needs may not be these things at all.”

The host’s smile froze. “Mr. Spencer is right! His point is that communication is crucial between spouses. It’s excellent advice, and I believe the bride and groom…”

“You.” Theodore suddenly confronted the groom, his gaze icy. “Are you sure you understand your own heart? Do you really know what you want? If, after marrying her, you enjoy everything she offers but start to act selfishly, causing her to cry and suffer, what will you do then?”

Theodore’s stare was piercing, leaving the groom momentarily speechless and visibly anxious.

“Why aren’t you speaking? Are you feeling guilty?” Theodore’s direct challenge made it seem as though he had a personal vendetta against the groom, further unsettling everyone.

“I will love her,” the groom fushed to say. “I won’t let my wife suffer. I promise!”

“Theo.” Rosalie grabbed his arm. “Let’s go downstairs. We shouldn’t delay the wedding.”

Rosalie pulled him away, feeling increasingly uneasy. Theodore must have had too much to drink, and was now acting out.

Drunk people often struggle to control their actions, even if they know what they’re doing.

Theodore suddenly wrenched his arm free from Rosalie’s grasp, his eyes locked onto the groom with piercing intensity. “Why are you sweating? Are you feeling guilty?”

Men might not understand women well, but Theodore was adept at reading them. He could clearly see that the groom was nervous, his gaze shifting and avoiding, betraying his discomfort.

“Who were you talking to? Tell me!” The bride shook him violently by the lapels

of his suit.

The room buzzed with murmurs. Family members rushed forward, trying to put. an end to the sudden chaos.

The groom hung his head while staying silent, letting his bride shake him.

“Enough. Let’s discuss this calmly,” a family member intervened. “Don’t cause a scene with everyone watching.”

“Let go of me! All of you, let go!” The bride broke free, her gaze piercing the groom. “What happened? Tell me, now!”

“It was just that one time. I got drunk because…because we were about to get married, and I was under a lot of pressure, so…so I…”

The groom couldn’t even look her in the eye.

The bride let out a bitter laugh, as if she had heard something utterly ridiculous.

“I’d rather you told me you don’t love me. You were under a lot of pressure? That’s your excuse? You think pressure justifies what you did? How could you? How could you?!”
