Before Christopher had the chance to speak, he saw a team of men charging toward the building.
Christopher’s face turned cold. Damn that Theodore Spencer!
Theodore couldn’t wait any longer, and led his men in rushing into the building.
The door was locked open with a bang as Theodore led dozens of men in searching for their targets, all of them armed. When their gazes landed upon the bloodied corpses heaped on the ground, they were utterly shocked.
Theodore’s eyes were bloodshot as he rushed forward, desperately looking for signs of Rosalie.
Just then, Sebastian and Christopher rushed in too. They were equally taken aback by the scene that greeted them in the building.
Rose! Rose! Sebastian started yelling at the top of her voice. Where are you, Rose?
Stop yelling. Theodore walked out from a small room. Rose isn’t here. She was taken away.
Theodore crouched down to check on the dead bodies. Some of them were in a tragic state, while others died from a single shot. All thugs involved in this kidnapping were dead, not one less.
Who took Rosalie away? It certainly was the police. Was there another group of people involved?
Just then, Theodore found a post-it note stuck on a pillar. He stood up, and tore it off the pillar.
‘You tortoises are so slow. By the time you come to save her, she would have been tortured and killed, you useless bums!’ the note read. There were swear words written on the post-it notes, a bold and arrogant depiction of the contempt the writer of this note had for them. Sebastian rushed forward, and grabbed the note from Theodore’s hand. Fire burned in his chest as he read the contents of the note.
Doubts arose in Christopher’s mind when he saw the contents of the note.
Theodore turned around, and left. However, Sebastian grabbed his arm.
Where are you going? he demanded.
Theodore shook his hand off. To save Rosalie, what else?
Where are you going to save her? Do you know where she is?
I don’t know. I’ll find her, Theodore said irritably. Should I waste time here instead? She was clearly taken away. Look at the dead people inside, and think about the kind of person who took Rosalie away.
Rosalie was clearly in a different kind of danger right now.
Theodore Spencer, do you know something we don’t? Sebastian questioned him. You know who took Rose away, don’t you?
How would I know? Theodore said coldly with a frown. I’ll save her no matter who took her.
Theodore Spencer, what right do you have to save her? Sebastian bit out with rage. Rose was kidnapped because of you! I’m sure you had something to do with this. If you go save her, she’ll be in greater danger!
You have no say in this. You don’t even have your memories. You’re the one with no right to find Rose. Seems to me that not only did you lose your memories, but you also lost your brain there, Theodore taunted sardonically.
With that, Theodore turned to leave.
Sebastian wanted to give chase, but Christopher stepped forward to stop him. Alright now, Seb. Let him go.
“I’m Rose’s husband. Who is he to Rose? What right does he have to look for her? For all we know, he staged this entire thing and is pretending to save her to win her heart.
Whether he really has anything to
do with this, having him on this increases the likelihood of us finding Rose. You should put aside your grudges against him and prioritize finding Rosalie. If Theodore really staged this entire incident, the truth will come to light one day,
Sebastian stared at the note in hand and tore it into pieces before flinging the pieces on the ground.
