Chapter 214
Theodore narrowed his eyes and snapped coldly, “And how is it appropriate for you to be here?! Don’t forget, you’re still a married woman!”
“Don’t forget, we’re getting divorced tomorrow,” Rosalie retorted.
“It’s today, not tomorrow,” Theodore snapped back.
He grabbed the iron gate, causing it to rattle. Rosalie instinctively took a few steps back, her face filled with fear.
Seeing the fear in her eyes, Theodore realized he had frightened her. He softened his tone, and released the gate.
“As long as we’re not divorced yet, you’re still Mrs. Spencer. What would people say about you staying overnight at another man’s place?
“Seriously?” Rosalie scoffed. “And what about you?! You’re a married man, but when another woman calls you, you rush to accompany her and stay out all night. What does that make you?”
“That’s different. Cindy was sick, I had to go to the hospital! What about you and Sebastian? I bet you two have been fooling around for ages!”
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat, her eyes widened in shock. “What nonsense are you spouting? When did I ever get involved with him? We’re just friends! Don’t make baseless accusations!”
Theodore was being absurd. He was fooling around with Cynthia, yet here he was, accusing her!
“Baseless accusations? Hah.” Theodore clenched his fists. “Didn’t you tell me that you first met Sebastian in college? I asked you again

later, and you gave the same answer. You’re lying to me! You knew him before that.”
Rosalie’s heart sank, and she shot him an incredulous look. “What do you mean?”
“What do I mean? Can’t you understand?” Theodore’s face turned grim as he continued sarcastically, “On your birthday, you were all dressed up and having dinner with him. That’s not a wonder, though, since you’ve been together for a while, right? It was your birthday, so of course you wanted him there!”
Rosalie’s head was spinning. She felt as though someone had struck her on her head. Caleb was probably the one who told Theodore about that day.
Theodore turned red with anger, his teeth clenched. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Feeling guilty?”
“Why should I feel guilty?” Rosalie’s eyes were fearless. “Yes, I did have dinner with Sebastian on my birthday. That was the first time I met him. The restaurant was fully booked, so we shared a table. Caleb probably misunderstood when he saw us. Later, I told you we first met in college to avoid any misunderstandings.”
“Misunderstandings? Are you sure?” Theodore smirked cynically, not believing a word.
“Whether you believe it or not, that is the truth. I have nothing to gain from lying to you now. We’re getting divorced anyway, and it’s not like I want to salvage anything in this relationship. What’s the point of lying to you?” she shot back.
Theodore clenched his fist and slammed it against the iron gate and a loud bang resounded. The resounding noise from
him the impression of a tran
cage.
Rosalie took a deep breath, trying hard to restrain her panic.
“Leave, please. We’ll meet at the clerk’s office at nine tomorrow.”

This was the last night she would get angry because of him. She was tired of being accused by him over and over again for no reason.
“Come back with me!” Theodore demanded sternly. “I won’t allow you to stay here tonight!”
Rosalie must have come here last night. Had he known about this yesterday, he would never have let Rosalie come here.
His wife actually spent the night at another man’s place!
Even though he was divorcing her, Theodore couldn’t accept it. Whether it was due to male possessiveness or an inferiority complex,
he just couldn’t allow it!
