Due to the fight, Theodore and Sebastian were taken to a nearby police station.
The two of them were separately interrogated and investigated. After a few hours, the police finally decided to release them.
Because neither tried to evade responsibility and didn’t cause any grievous harm or damage, the police handled the issue with great discretion.
They issued Theodore and Sebastian a warning, demanding they adhere to the country’s laws and ensure they wouldn’t cause another argument. Then, the two had to sign their names.
After everything was over, the police called for their family to take them home.
As the situation wasn’t so severe as to require bail, Rosalie and Aurora could take the two of them away after they gave their signatures. Night had fallen.
The gate of the police station was a stately yet mysterious divider, separating chaos and hustle and bustle from the world.
The street lamp shone weakly and solitarily, looking like a lone star in the night sky.
The four of them met again at the gate of the police station.
Rosalie saw Aurora holding onto Theodore’s arm. Aurora avoided their gaze and grabbed Theodore’s arm. Theo, let’s go.
Rosalie didn’t look too good, and her voice was hoarse. After all that had happened, she felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
The two pairs eventually walked away in different directions without saying anything further. The drama ended just like that, quietly and lonesomely.
The streets were quiet, with very few people. The wind blew across the road, whispering low and bleakly.
Darkness spread across the lands, wrapping everything in its shadow. Neon lights blinked weakly in the distance, outlining the city’s silhouette. Aurora held Theodore’s arm as they slowly walked along the streets.
Their car was parked nearby, but Theodore wasn’t intending to drive. She had no idea where he wanted to walk to.
Aurora kept silent and simply stayed by his side.
If she were alone, walking down the streets of a foreign country at night, she would surely feel scared. However, with Theodore by her side, she felt very safe with him around like her guardian angel.
She boldly leaned her head against his shoulder.
The corner of her lips lifted in a happy smile when Theodore didn’t push her away.
Their relationship had taken a leap forward, and it was all thanks to his ex-wife’s cruelty. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stood a chance. Aurora felt a little hungry. She didn’t have time for lunch, as she had been so worried about Theodore for the rest of the afternoon that she had lost her appetite.
After they returned to their house, the sky had turned dark. Theodore remained silent all the way and didn’t say a word throughout the entire journey. Aurora was very worried. She found his silence frightening, as if he had his soul all sucked out of him.
As they returned to their house, Theodore collapsed on the carpet the moment they reached the living room, his big and strong body suddenly losing its support.
Despite collapsing to the floor, he
remained expressionless, his eyes empty, immersed in dark
hopelessness. It looked as though he didn’t even realize that he had fallen to the ground.
Or perhaps he didn’t care.
His eyes were a deep, dark lake, rippling on the surface but without any signs of life. Endless sorrow and helplessness could be seen in its depths. Theodore was drowning in pain, unable to extricate himself from it.
Theo, Aurora called him, but suddenly thought of something. Mr. Spencer, are you alright? Should we go to the hospital for a check?
