After work, Stephanie arrived at the hospital where Theodore was admitted. As a nurse herself, she knew how to get information and was able to smoothly find out Theodore’s room number. 

As Stephanie peeked through the crack of the slightly ajar door, she saw a woman crying by the man’s bedside. 

“Theo, I’m so worried about you. Does it hurt?” 

“I’m fine, Cindy, please don’t cry.” Theodore reached out to wipe. Cynthia’s tears. “I told you not to come. Your health isn’t good, remember? Why did you insist on coming?” 

“It’s okay. I just want to be with you. You’re hurt, and no one’s here for you. It’s so lonely. I know you didn’t tell your family because you don’t, want them to worry. If I’m not here with you, who else will be?” 

Cynthia was really good with words, knowing just what to say to touch someone’s heart. 

“You were with me all day yesterday and drove back at night. You must have gotten into an accident because you were tired. It’s my fault for being so weak. If you hadn’t been taking care of me, this wouldn’t have happened.” 

“Don’t blame yourself. You didn’t choose to get sick. Please don’t cry. I won’t be happy if you keep crying, Theodore said gently yet firmly. 

Cynthia wiped her tears away. “Okay, I won’t cry.” 

“Cindy, I have something to tell you.” 

“What is it?” 

“Yesterday, Rose signed the divorce papers.”

“Really?” Cynthia started crying again, but her tears were ones of joy this time. “She finally signed? Then, you two will…” 

“My dad tore up the divorce papers.” 

“What?” Cynthia stiffened. “Why?” 

“My dad came to the hospital, found the papers, and tore them up. He’s really mad. Now, he’s trying everything to stop the divorce. I’m worried he might hurt you, so please wait a little longer, okay?” 

“Theo, I’ve waited so long.” 

Cynthia bit her lip hard, trying not to cry out loud, making herself appear more aggrieved and innocent. 

“I know. I’ll get Rose to sign another copy of the divorce papers as soon as possible, but I have to consider my parents and 

grandmother. I can’t be too aggressive, or you might suffer. If they join forces and come after you together, I might not be able to protect you,” said Theodore, his eyes filled with concern. 

He couldn’t let what had happened previously repeat itself. 

Though reluctant, Cynthia had no other choice but to nod obediently and say, “I understand. It’s okay, I’ve waited for you for so long. A few more days won’t matter.” 

Cynthia leaned into Theodore’s embrace, nestling against him. “Theo, you’ll marry me, won’t you? One day, I’ll become your wife, right?” 

Theodore didn’t hug her back, but didn’t push her away either, letting Cynthia lean against him. After a moment of silence, he looked up and gently patted the back of her head. 

“Yes,” he said. 

Stephanie was so enraged that her brain was pounding. She wanted to rush in and scold the pair of them, but forced herself to hold back 

to avoid causing trouble for her go video she had recorded. 

Suddenly, a man’s voice came from 

Stephanie turned around and saw staring at her. 

“Sorry, wrong room!” 

She hurriedly brushed past Yuvan, r fire. 

“Yuvan, what happened?” Theodore 

“A woman was acting suspiciousl the wrong room,” Yuvan replied, clo
