Chapter 48

Theodore smiled gently, not getting angry. "Got it, Grandma, I will."

He reached out and took Rosalie's hand, making her feel a pang of bitterness. He was playing his part so well, but in his heart, he was thinking about another woman. Everything they were doing at tonight's dinner was fake. Once they got back home, they would return to their broken relationship. It was sad just to think about it. Even though her heart ached, Rosalie had to maintain a smile on her face. She played along with Theodore, gazing at him lovingly. When Theodore, who had momentarily been spacing out, turned back and met Rosalie's gaze, he saw how her eyes seemed full of love for him.

She was really playing her part so convincingly. If he didn't know better, he would think she really loved him. But in reality, she only saw him as a brother.

No, perhaps not even that.

She had told him herself that she had put him with him for long enough. Since she personally said it, it had to be true, right? Thinking about her previous words, Theodore's heart throbbed uncomfortably, but he didn't know why.

His grip on her hand tightened unconsciously. Feeling the increased pressure, Rosalie frowned and lightly kicked Theodore's leg under the table, causing him to quickly release her hand.

Sydney, who hadn't spoken much, said to Rosalie, "I heard you've graduated. Have you decided where to work? Or are you planning something else?"
