Theodore frowned, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.
Rosalie stared blankly at the crystal bracelet on the ground, as if it represented the irreparable rift between her and Theodore. She silently bent down, picked up the broken pieces, and threw them into a nearby trash can before walking away.
Consumed by an inexplicable anger, Theodore strode forward and grabbed Rosalie’s wrist forcefully. “What is the meaning of this?!”
From Theodore’s perspective, Rosalie had deliberately broken the crystal bracelet.
Rosalie winced from his strong grip, frowning as she struggled to free her hand. “I don’t understand what you mean.”
She knew he was asking about the crystal bracelet, but why was he so angry? It was just a gift he had casually bought for her based on Cynthia’s suggestion.
With a cold expression on his face, Theodore was about to speak when Wesley intervened.
“Do you want to make a spectacle? Should I grab a megaphone and call all the employees here?”
As Wesley spoke, Theodore noticed some employees glancing over, but they quickly averted their gazes, only casting curious glances before hurriedly leaving. Such a scene would undoubtedly attract

After Wesley left, Rosalie followed suit without even glancing at Theodore, who stared at his wife’s slender figure walking away. feeling like his heart had been hollowed out

She would definitely find a way to keep him there once he arrived.
Theodore withdrew his hand. “You’re having trouble even standing, so how can you cook for me? Besides, I can dine with you whenever I want, but Grandma’s health isn’t good and I haven’t spent time with her in a long time You know how important this is, yet you’re still

Cynthia stiffened. “Theo, I’m not trying to stop you. I just love you too much, and my health isn’t good either. I don’t know how long I’ll live, so I panicked momentarily. I’m sorry. You should go home. You’re right. It’s been a long time since you’ve spent time with your grandmother.”
She lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.
“Alright.” Theodore understood her impulse, given her poor health. Let me take you home first.”
