Chapter 169

The memory of Cynthia claiming that Theodore would defend her just half an hour ago flashed past Rosalie's mind.

Cynthia had a reason for being so confident. Theodore really was

defending her. Even if he knew Cynthia might have done it on

purpose, he still chose to defend her

How much did he love her to defend her to such an extent, despite knowing that she slandered his grandmother? "Fine, it's over since you said it's over. But don't forget: just because it's over, doesn't mean that it never happened."

Theodore grabbed her arm to stop her. "Wait, there's one more thing."

"What else is there? If it's about Cynthia, I don't want to hear it. Let me go."
