Chapter 452
“The patient seems to have been attacked. We don’t know who he is yet. The police are trying to find his family. If we get the family’s consent, we can perform the surgery immediately!”
Seeing how excited they were, Rosalie felt a heavy weight on her.
From their perspective, they would naturally be happy. On the other hand, the injured person they mentioned would die. After all, it was one person’s life for another’s. As expected as long as the one dying wasn’t someone they cared about, it didn’t matter.
The doctor continued, “The patient’s organs are very healthy. If the family agrees, his corneas and all his organs, even his skin, can be donated. We could save many lives.”
“You said he was attacked?” Theodore asked.
The doctor nodded. “Judging from his injuries, yes. And he had not identification on him. He might have been robbed.”
“I see. Once you find his family, tell them that if they agree to donating his organs, I’ll agree to any condition,” Theodore said.
Rosalie felt dizzy, like she was about to faint. Her heart ached, as if something bad had happened. She felt very, very uneasy.
After the doctor left, Theodore grabbed her into a tight hug. “Rose, did you hear that? Cindy’s not going to die!”
Rosalie forcefully pushed him away “What does that have to do with me? Do you expect me to celebrate with you?”
“Rose, don’t you understand? Once Cindy’s better, I’ll make things clear with her. I won’t see her again.
“So as long as she’s alive, you can rest easy and break up with her confidently?” Rosalie sneered.
Theodore frowned. “Isn’t this what you wanted? Didn’t you ask me to
make a choice before? I’ve chosen now, so why aren’t you happy?”

“Why should I be happy? It’s too late! From the moment you asked for a divorce, you’ve had plenty of time to tell me and make a choice, but you never did. Not once! You waited until after Sebastian and I got married to tell me. You really have great timing.”
Rosalie felt that she and Theodore weren’t meant to be together. The timing was always wrong.
Immediately, Theodore’s expression turned cold. “It’s never too late as long as you know how you feel.”
“It’s too late. The world doesn’t want us to be together. Otherwise, why didn’t you tell me sooner? How many times do I have to say this? Sebastian and I are already married,” she snapped.
In truth, her marriage to Sebastian wasn’t the point. Since it was a fake marriage, they could divorce anytime. The real issue was that she couldn’t pretend nothing had happened.
The pain Theodore brought her was too agonizing. She was afraid.
“Do you love him?” Theodore demanded. “Tell me! Did you marry him because you love him and you two were involved long before, or because you were heartbroken and sought comfort in him?”
Rosalie couldn’t answer his question. Neither was true.
If she told Theodore she married Sebastian to help him, Theodore would never stop bothering her. But she couldn’t say she loved Sebastian either, because that was a lie.
Given Theodore’s current crazed state, if he went to cause trouble for Sebastian, the consequences would be severe
