Chapter 341
In the ward, only the two of them remained.
Sebastian smiled awkwardly. “Don’t mind her, Rose. She never thinks before she talks.”
“It’s okay, actually. It’s kind of nice. She doesn’t have any ulterior motives, and I quite like her,” Rosalie said.
She got off the bed, and bent down to put on her shoes.
Sebastian immediately walked up to her and crouched. “Let me help you.”
He knelt down on one knee, held her ankle, and picked up a shoe.
Rosalie instinctively pulled back.
Sebastian seemed to notice, and lifted his head. “Let me help you, You have low blood sugar. If you get dizzy again later, it’s not good for the baby.”
He then carefully shipped her foot into the shoe. Even in the simple. act of helping her put on her shoes, his movements were gentlemanly
and courteous.
Looking at Sebastian helping her with her shoes, Rosalie’s eyes. briefly misted over.
The scene felt familiar. She suddenly remembered the time Theodore. had done the same for her. It was shortly after they had got married.
“Ow, ow, ow!” Rosalie groaned, clutching her stomach in pain and rolling around on the bed.
At the time, she had only been married to Theodore for a week. Theodore had left early in the morning, and she had planned to go to

school. However, the pain in her stomach was so intense that she couldn’t walk.
She had also forgotten to take painkillers beforehand, and now, it was too late. Her painkillers usually took two hours to take effect, and by the time they worked, the pain would already have subsided.
Her stomach always hurt badly during her menstrual period. This had been going on for several years now, but the pain usually went away after two to three hours.
Rosalie was curled up under the navy blanket, trembling. She tossed and turned, occasionally letting out painful groans, completely unaware that the door had been opened and footsteps were rapidly approaching.
With a rustle, the blanket covering her head was lifted, and a man’s worried face appeared above her. “What’s wrong?”
A large hand reached up to her forehead. It was sticky with sweat, but her skin was cold.
“Theo, why are you back?” she asked in surprise.
He had gone to the company early this morning, hadn’t he?
“The butler said you didn’t go to university today, and that you were in your room all day. I called your phone, but you didn’t answer, so I came back to check on you.”
Rosalie was stunned for a few seconds. At that instant, she even forgot about the pain. He had returned because of her?
She was in so much pain that her phone had slipped from her hand and fallen to the ground, causing the screen to crack. Perhaps it was broken, so when Theodore called her, there was no sound.
Rosalie struggled to sit up on the bed. “I’m fine.”

“You say you’re fine, but look at your complexion.” Theodore wiped the sweat from her forehead, his brow furrowing. “Let me take you to the hospital.”
“It’s nothing, really.” She waved her hand. “I’m not sick, I just… I just…”
“Just what?” Theodore asked.
Rosalie lowered her head, feeling a bit embarrassed. “I just got my period. It’s just normal menstrual cramps. I’ll be fine in a few hours. You don’t need to worry. Go back to your work.”
She was in such a sorry state now; her complexion must be terrible. She didn’t want Theodore to see her like this. Everyone wanted to show their best side to their beloved
Theodore was staring at her, but she didn’t dare to meet his gaze. She kept avoiding his eyes and turning her head away. If she had known he would come back today, she would have forced herself to go to school or leave home.
Theodore pinched her chin lightly, turning her head to face him.
“Why are you avoiding me?”
