Chapter 500
Rosalie explained the situation patiently and in all seriousness to him, seeking his forgiveness. She knew Sebastian would definitely be upset, having promised him she would return very soon, but ended up making him wait for so long.
He had lost his memory, and she was the only person he remembered. The wait must have been torturous to him, making him feel as though he were abandoned.
Sebastian peeked his face out from the sheets. “What friend? Male or female?”
Rosalie chuckled helplessly. Did he lose his memory, or was he just jealous?
“Don’t worry. He’s just an 18-year-old boy,” she said.
“Is that so? How did you get to know him? You care so much about him.”
“We live in the same district. Don’t worry, there’s nothing between us. We’re just friends. I see him as a brother, and he treats me like a sister. I couldn’t just ignore about him when something like that happened to him. Don’t pick a fight with me over this, okay?”
Sebastian pouted like a child, clearly still angry. However, seeing Rosalie apologizing so sincerely to him softened his stance. He couldn’t bear to keep blaming her.
At the next moment, he looked pitifully at her. “Fine. I’ll forgive you just this once. Don’t do it again, or at least tell me about it. I waited so long for you, I thought you abandoned me.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Sebastian spoke in a trembling voice, his eyes brimming with tears. Rosalie never thought she would see him in such a vulnerable state.
It was normal that he was behaving like this, given the ordeal he was going through. He was deeply traumatized, and was clinging onto her for dear life.
Rosalie took on the responsibility of taking care of him till his full recovery.
“Got it. Next time, I’ll make things clear to you. I won’t do this again, please don’t be upset. I’m back with you now, I’m right here,” she assured. Sebastian stared at Rosalie in a daze. Her words of comfort did make him feel better, but the seeing her so submissive, gentle, and thoughtful made her feel like a stranger-as if she shouldn’t be treating him like this.
The tone she took with him felt more like that of a mother toward a child, and not that of a wife toward a husband.
He didn’t see the deep love etched in
her eyes that a wife should have for her husband, but he was very sure that he loved her deeply evenwith his memory loss. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Seeing Sebastian in a daze, Rosalie asked, “Seb, what’s the matter? Do you feel unwell?”
Sebastian shook his head. “No, I’m good. Honey, have you had dinner?”
Rosalie’s recount of her evening sounded like she hadn’t had dinner.
Rosalie replied frankly, “Nope. I’ll grab something to eat later.”
“Let the bodyguard buy food for you. It’s so late, I don’t feel safe letting you go out alone.”
Sebastian held her hand. Rosalie saw the insecurity in his eyes, and his need for her to be by his side.
“Sure. I’ll ask the bodyguard for help, and tell him what I’d like to eat.”
Sebastian nodded.
After Rosalie spoke to the bodyguard, he quickly returned with dinner.
After dinner, Rosalie prepared to retire for the night.
