Chapter 437
Theodore’s words sent Rosalie spiraling in shock. She stared at him wide-eyed, as if time had come to a stand-still.
Very soon, she snapped out of her daze. A strong sense of irony took over.
“Theodore Spencer. Do you mean to say that everything that has happened has nothing to do with you and Cynthia, but it’s all because you thought I don’t love you? That you let me go as an act of compassion, so I could be happy? Is that it?”
Her words sounded laughable even to herself, but it seemed to be exactly what Theodore meant.
Theodore suddenly leaned in closer, his voice hoarse with sorrow. “If I say yes, can you tell me if you ever loved me?”
Rosalie laughed bitterly. “We’re coming back full circle once more. You asked me if I ever loved you, but does that change anything? If I say that I never loved you, will you just blame everything on me? If I say that I do, will you cut things off with Cynthia?”
“I can!” Theodore proclaimed loudly and resolutely.
Rosalie’s world turned quiet. Everything froze, and even Theodore seemed to freeze in time.
Her mind froze at the moment he said he could. There seemed to a black hole sucking in all her thoughts. Everything was eerily quiet, with nothing but endless shock and fear.
The momentary loss of sense of reality made everything feel like a dream. Her erratic heartbeat, heavy breathing, and the deep, dark eyes he was staring at her with…
He was leaning in close to her, the fire in his eyes almost scorching her fiercely and mercilessly.
Rosalie’s lips trembled, a lump in her throat, as she spat out, “What did you just say?”
Theodore’s right hand shifted from her shoulder to lightly pinch her chin. He tilted her head up and looked straight into her eyes, his voice heavy and hoarse.
“If you love me, even if just a little bit, we’ll get remarried.”
Rosalie was utterly flabbergasted by his suggestion. “Do you know what on earth you’re saying? Are you mad?”
“I am!” Theodore’s eyes were
bloodshot as he went on, “You’re
driving me mad! You make me wonder every single day-what’ exactly I did wrong that my Rose doesn’t love me?” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Tears trickled down Rosalie’s cheeks, the sorrow in her heart spreading to every crevice in her body.
What exactly did Theodore mean? Did he really divorce her because he thought she didn’t love him?
So, did he love her?
She wanted to ask if he loved her, but she didn’t dare to. It seemed as though things between them couldn’t go back to the past.

“That’s only because Cindy only has a matter of days left!” he said solemnly. “Her heart is failing. She has to find a heart donor within a week, but we just can’t find a match. She’s doomed, so I… I wanted to give her a wedding before her funeral.” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
