Chapter 63

Theodore didn't want to believe that Cynthia was capable of such things. He had even blamed Rosalie for what happened with the bracelet, but her demeanor at the time didn't seem like she was lying either. "That bracelet... Well... I told her it was very beautiful and perfect for her. Theo, don't you remember? After you bought that bracelet, I accidentally saw it and thought it was for me.

"But then, you told me it was for Rosalie. I just praised how beautiful it was and said it was a perfect gift for her. Did she misunderstand? It's my fault for not explaining properly. Should I go talk to her and clear things up?"

Cynthia looked anxious and ashamed.

It wouldn't make a difference even if Theodore confronted the two women. There was no evidence only Cynthia and Rosalie knew what happened in the office. Cynthia could spin the story however she liked. Theodore pondered momentarily before finally coldly saying, "Next time, don't bring up such matters. It's better not to say anything if you're just going to leave things half-said and make people misunderstand."

"I... Theo, you misunderstood. I really didn't mean it that way. Maybe I misspoke, but I didn't intend to do that. I can explain it to her," said Cynthia, panicking.

"No need. I just hope this doesn't happen again."
