Chapter 469
Meanwhile, Rosalie had been staying vigil by Sebastian’s bedside.
Christopher stood at the door with his hands in his pockets, staring straight at Rosalie with furrowed brows and an unreadable expression.
After pondering for a moment, he walked in. Seeing him, Rosalie turned around and greeted him.
Christopher nodded. “You’ve been with him for very a long time. Yvonne told me you didn’t even have lunch this afternoon. It’s getting late. I’ll take you out for dinner.”
“It’s alright, I’m not hungry.” Rosalie continued looking at Sebastian, her face etched with worry. She wanted to be by his side.
He would be so scared all alone, unable to move and talk.
“I know you want to accompany him, but not eating or drinking wouldn’t help him in his state right now. Even worse, it’d only make him worry. You should take care of yourself, or Sebastian might blame us for neglecting your health when he wakes up,” Christopher said.
Each time someone mentioned Sebastian waking up, Rosalie would feel a tug at her heart. She wanted to hold onto any sliver of hope, but that alone felt frightening to her.
She wished so badly that he would wake up, but she feared the disappointment if he didn’t.
“Stop forcing yourself. Do you want to starve yourself? There are bodyguards here. Don’t worry, nothing will happen. Sebastian is already like this. You must take care of yourself for his sake.”© NôvelDrama.Org – All rights reserved.
Rosalie finally nodded. “Okay.”
Christopher was right. Her not eating or drinking wasn’t going to help things. What’s more, she was pregnant.
She stood up and left the ward with Christopher, her gaze lingering on Sebastian.
Christopher brought her to a restaurant nearby, where he booked a private room. A few solemn-looking bodyguards stood right outside the private room.
Alone with Christopher, Rosalie felt pressured.
He was a serious man, exuding an outstanding aura that belonged to a very important figure. Rosalie guessed that he probably held a very powerful and authoritative position.
Good genes ran in the Jacksons, and every single member blessed with striking good looks. Sebastian’s mother was a beauty, and Christopher stood out with his handsome features.
“Is it just us? Is Vonnie not joining us for dinner?” Rosalie asked.
“She already ate something, and is at the hospital right now. She’s feeling rather low right now with her brother in his current state, so she told us to go ahead and not worry about her,” he explained. Content

Rosalie sighed. “Vonnie’s very close to her brother. She must be very sad right now.”
“They’re siblings, after all.”
Christopher poured Rosalie a cup of hot tea Talking about siblings, she told me a little about your story. She said Theodore Spencer is your ex-husband.” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat. She wasn’t worried about others knowing that she was once married, but she wondered if Yvonne revealed her pregnancy.
Rosalie nodded. “Yes, he is.”
She wondered if Christopher would judge her for marrying his nephew not long after divorcing Theodore.
To her surprise, Christopher did nothing of the sort. Instead, he said, “I know him. Tremendously capable despite his young age, a rare talent indeed, SK Enterprise is a multinational corporation that’s thriving under his excellent
management.” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Rosalie smiled. “Yeah.”
Theodore might be lackluster in other aspects, but Rosalie had to admit that he was adept at managing his company.
No one is perfect in this world. Theodore was successful in his business and navigated the commercial world with ease, but when it came to matters of the heart…
