Chapter 405
“These are all Rosalie’s favorite dishes. Aren’t there any that I like?” Sydney seemed a bit jealous.
Theodore looked up, and said, “I don’t know what you like to eat, and you’ve never told me. We rarely eat together.”
He looked at his mother without much expression on his face.
Sydney stiffened.
Theodore continued helping Rosalie to the food.
Rosalie turned and stared at Theodore’s serious side profile, feeling a wave of bitterness in her heart. Did he have a split personality? Why else would he hurt her on one moment, and then be gentle on the next?
“Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.” Rosalie put down her cutlery, stood up, and left the dining room.
“Theo, why are you so close to your ex-wife?” Sydney asked, her words carrying a hidden meaning.
He gave a lame excuse. “She has helped me before, hasn’t she? What’s wrong with me serving her some food? It’s just common courtesy.”
“She helped you?” Sydney asked. “Are you referring to the night she stayed up with me, looking into Regent Co.’s information?”
Seeing Sydney’s half-smile, Theodore furrowed his brow. “SK avoided being dragged down by Regent Co., and I shorted Regent Co., making a big profit. Isn’t that a huge favor?”
“Yes.” Sydney nodded. “That really is a big favor, but…”
“But what?” Theodore pressed.
Sydney raised an eyebrow. “Nothing, I just feel like someone’s a coward. He’s afraid to speak the truth, and instead always causes others heartache and sadness.”
With a snap, Theodore put down his cutlery and snarled, “Did Rosalie tell you this?”
Sydney raised two fingers, and pointed at her own eyes. “I saw it myself. Who is she so heartbroken and sad for? Is it for the dog?”
Wesley sat quietly on the side, not understanding their conversation very well, but also not daring to ask nor speak.
A few seconds later, Theodore suddenly stood up, turned around, and left the dining room.
Wesley was eating. Just as he
turned to look at his son to ask where he was going, Sydney pinched his thigh hard. Wesley screamed in pain. He turned back around and looked at his wife in shock Content belongs to NovelDrama.OrgThis content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Shut up!” Sydney said word by word, her eyes full of warning. Wesley was scared, and silently lowered his head.
Rosalie had just opened the door of the washroom when a tall figure appeared in front of her. He pushed her back into the washroom and slammed the door shut with a bang. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
By the time she reacted, her body was already pressed against the cold wall.
“What are you doing?” she asked angrily.
“My mom said you’re sad and heartbroken for me, is it true? I thought you didn’t love me. Why are you still sad?” Theodore said.
Sometimes, he couldn’t understand what Rosalie was thinking. He could feel the strong attraction between the two of them, and that she had feelings for him too.
But when he proposed a divorce, or
how she behaved when there were conflicts, plus her immediate

and her saying that she was

Since that was the case, she should be happy after the divorce. But… Why did he feel otherwise when observing her?
Rosalie didn’t know what Sydney had said to him, and felt a little flustered. She hurriedly said, “That’s what your mother said, not me. She got it wrong.”
“Is that so? Then tell me you don’t care about me at all, and you’ve never loved me before, not even a bit. I want you to say it yourself.”
