“Oh, Grandma! Enough already. You know I’m shy,” Rosalie said, pretending to be embarrassed.
“Alright, I won’t bother you two anymore. Goodbye.” Rebecca ended. the video call.
Rosalie sighed deeply, immediately dropping the shy act and
becoming calm. She turned to Theodore and said, “I’m returning to my room now. You should rest early.”
She was about to leave bed when Theodore grabbed her hand. “Wait a
minute.”
Rosalie turned around and asked, “What’s up?”
“Why don’t you just sleep here?”
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat. She shook her head quickly. “No. That would be inappropriate.”
She tried to leave, but Theodore’s grip tightened..
“Why? Even though we’re getting divorced tomorrow, the time hasn’t come yet. We’re still husband and wife for now. This is our last night together as a married couple.”
Rosalie’s heart ached.
Yes, after tomorrow, he wouldn’t be her husband anymore. He would belong to Cynthia.
Suddenly, Theodore pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly. “Stay. I won’t touch you, but let’s not sleep in separate rooms tonight.”
Rosalie couldn’t resist the desire in her heart. She wanted to stay strong, but she couldn’t stop her love for him.
it was just one night, their last night together as husband and wife She wanted to cherish it, and put a peaceful end to their married life.
Rosalie gently pushed him away and said, “Okay, let’s sleep
Theodore held her and lay down on the bed Rosalie leaned into his embrace, feeling his warm hug Herhose tingled, and tears welled up uncontrollably
She wiped away her tears discreetly, trying not to get them on his clothes so he wouldn’t notice
Sensing that the woman in his arms was trembling Theodore gently stroked the back of her head
“What’s wrong“? Are you cold?”
He covered her with the blanket, holding her tightly to warm her
“No, it’s just You’ll be holding someone else in the future,” Rosalie’s voice sounded a little bitter.
He called her name “Rose.
“What is it?” Rosalie responded softly
“Let’s forget about everyone else tonight, okay? It’s just us two here”
Rosalie murmured softly, “Okay.“
Theodore continued to hold her. He held Rosalie until she fell into a deep sleep, but he couldn’t sleep.
After Rosalie had fallen asleep. Theodore carefully let go of her and left the room. He went to the yard alone to get some fresh air
Cynthia sent him several messages. He saw them, but didn’t reply. He sat alone in a chair, staring blankly at the sky.

However, his heart felt incredibly bleak. It felt like it had been hollowed out.
Tomorrow, they were going to divorce in secret.
Shouldn’t he tell Cynthia this good news in advance? But, why didn’t he feel like replying to her messages? Why was he avoiding them, too? He pondered about it for a long time.
Maybe it was because things hadn’t reached their conclusion yet, so he didn’t want to say too much in advance.
What if something unexpected happened, and Cynthia would be disappointed? Her health was not good, and she was emotionally fragile. It wouldn’t be good to hurt her.
As for Rosalie, she should be very happy after the divorce. She would finally be completely free.
Theodore spent at least an hour outside. When he felt a bit cold, he returned to the room. He climbed into bed, and hugged Rosalie tightly.
The petite woman slept soundly. She snuggled into his embrace like a little kitten, and looked incredibly cute.
