Chapter 86 

“Don’t overthink it.” 

Those words pierced Rosalie deeply, Clearly, it was obvious that Theodore thought she was overreacting. Why did it suddenly become her fault? Was she really overthinking it? 

“Theodore, am I overthinking it, or are you just being unreasonable?! Every time, you unconditionally trust Cynthia and think I’m lying. Cynthia is always portrayed as kind and pure! I don’t understand. What has she done to influence you like this?” Rosalie exclaimed in 

frustration. 

“Rosalie, don’t speak ill of her. She hasn’t done anything to influence me, but you… Why have you become so mean? You said it yourself that you’re unhappy and fed up with me. How does my relationship with Cindy affect you? What good does it do to hurt her?” Theodore 

retorted. 

When Rosalie openly said she was fed up with Theodore and tired of their marriage, did she ever think about how he felt? Why did she think. she was the only one suffering? 

Rosalie tried hard not to get angry. She reminded herself that she was carrying their baby, and that was what mattered most. 

“Fine. I’m sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have hurt her.” 

Rosalie grabbed her clothes and left. The sentence she once forced herself to say had now become something Theodore could use against her any time. She had nothing to say and no way to explain. Continuing to argue was just a waste of time. 

“Stop right there.” Theodore grabbed her wrist. “What’s the meaning. of leaving halfway through the conversation?” 

Ive already apologized, haven’t I? What more do you want? She’s innocent, and I’m slandering her. Is that enough?” 

Rose, don’t talk to me with that attitude. There’s no sincerity in your 

words!” 

“What do you want from me, then? What counts as sincere? Should I go and apologize to her on my knees right now? Tell her that I was wrong to slander her?” 

Theodore was too much! Rosalie kept backing down, yet he kept. 

pressing on. 

“Is it so hard to have a proper conversation? Did I ask you to kneel and apologize to her? Why do you have to complicate things? It’s just a crystal bracelet. No matter how I got it, it’s a gift from me to you. Can’t you be reasonable?” 

“Sorry, I just like making things complicated. I’m not like you men, to whom everything seems simple.” 

Being asked to be reasonable by Theodore sounded especially ironic, Theodore was the one who wasn’t being reasonable! He was being biased! He was being anything but fair, and he didn’t care! If a woman treated a man like this, could he still be reasonable? Could he simplify things? 

Extremely frustrated, Theodore had an unpleasant expression on his face. He had a lot of patience, but this woman kept challenging him….! 

Just as he was about to say something, the sound of a phone ringing interrupted. Theodore let go of Rosalie and answered it. 

“Hello.” 

Holding her clothes, Rosalie had just reached the door when she heard Theodore urgently say, “Cindy attempted suicide?! I’m coming. 

over now!”

Earlier, Theodore had changed into lounge clothes to rest at home. But after receiving that call, he immediately went back to the closet to change into suitable clothes to leave. 

As he passed Rosalie, he turned his head and coldly said, “Cindy attempted suicide. You must be happy now!” 

Rosalie hugged her clothes tightly and said nothing. She watched Theodore leave after that accusation, as if she were responsible for Cynthia’s suicide attempt. Suddenly feeling uneasy, Rosalie quickly called Sydney. 

“Mom, something’s wrong. Cynthia attempted suicide.” 

Sydney sounded calm as she replied, “She won’t die.” 

“But Theo seems very angry. Cynthia will definitely blame us for this.” 

“Let her blame us. If Theo is angry, let him be. Remember my words just consider them as children throwing a tantrum. Don’t get angry. Let them make a fuss. If you can’t control yourself, think about the baby in your belly!” 

“But Mom, what if things get out of hand? Theo really cares about Cynthia. I don’t care anymore, since I’m going to divorce him. What I’m worried about is if Theo blames you, then…” 

“Then, let him come. I’m not afraid of him.” 

It seemed like Sydney had everything under control. 

The older woman dismissed Rosalie’s concerns and said, “I have things to attend to. Listen to my advice. Let them make a fuss and don’t stoop to their level.”
