Chapter 19
“Just wait here for me, okay? What kind of man waits outside the women’s restroom? Even if you’re not embarrassed, I am,” Rosalie said.
Theodore remained silent for a moment, then let go of her hand.” Alright, I’ll wait here for you.”
Rosalie immediately handed him the bottle of water, turned around, and walked away quickly.
“Slow down. Be careful not to fall,” Theodore reminded her, his tone serious yet filled with concern.
Passersby couldn’t help but envy the couple.
Rosalie slowed down. She clutched her chest tightly and frowned. It was a pity that his concern had come too late.
She rushed into the restroom and closed the door. Then, she
immediately knelt in front of the toilet bowl, forcing herself to throw up by shoving her fingers down her throat.
“Ugh…”

A strong sense of discomfort surged from her stomach and throat, and she forcefully expelled all three pills she had swallowed. She flushed the toilet once she was done, then stumbled to her feet, unable to stand steadily.
After splashing her face with cold water, Rosalie walked out of the restroom and happened to see Theodore approaching. She was glad she had come out early. If she had emerged a few minutes later, he would definitely have heard her throwing up.
“Why did you come here? Didn’t I ask you to wait +

She was really angry. He kept making it seem like she was the one who had brought up the divorce. Since he wanted a divorce so he

People passing by couldn’t help but stop to watch the drama unfold before them. Humans were curious creatures, after all..
Theodore’s face tumed semifyingly dark. He grabbed Rosalie’s hand and pulled her away.
The atmosphere in the car was unusually heavy. The driver dared not even breathe loudly as he drove. Anyone with a discerning eye could
sense that something was wrong
Rosalie was also in a depressed mood.
Theodore suddenly spoke up. “What have I done? Have I mistreated you, or did I deceive you?”
It was another interrogation directed at her, especially the last semence. It was as if he was reminding her that he had made things
clear from the beginning.
Rosalie had had enough. He was making it seem like she was the one being unreasonable.
“Mr. Spencer, you’ve been kind to me and haven’t deceived me. You
made it clear from the beginning that we would get divorced once she returned. Now that we’re going to be divorced soon, you don’t have to continue treating me like your wife.
“Perhaps you can seamlessly switch between different roles and emotions, but I can’t. If we’re going to divorce, let’s do it cleanly and leave no room for doubts!”
Rosalie’s words made the atmosphere in the car even more oppressive than before.
After a long silence, Theodore slowly said, “Rosalie, how many times do I have to tell you? We’re not divorced yet! Yes, I know we’ll eventually get divorced. Do you think we’re actors playing a role until the director calls cut? Are we supposed to stay in character until then?
“If so, then the moment I mentioned divorce, you already snapped out of character and no longer saw me as your husband, right?”
Rosalie didn’t know how to explain it. Why couldn’t this man
understand? Their thoughts were simply not on the same track. They were thinking of two different things.
Rosalie sighed. “Regardless, our marriage was like a play to begin with, performed for Grandma’s sake. So, if you think that way, that’s
fine.”
She had cried her heart out for him, but in his eyes, she was behaving out of character. Even though she was filled with grievances, she couldn’t confide in him. The more she tried not to make things difficult for him, the more he misunderstood her.
“Stop the car!” Theodore suddenly exclaimed.
The driver quickly hit the brakes and parked the car by the roadside.
“Take Ms. Young home!”
Theodore opened the car door and got out, leaving Rosalie puzzled
about where he was going.
