Sydney couldn't explain why, either. She simply felt that Theodore liked Rosalie very much. Yet, his actions and decisions were so confusing.

She also didn't want to give Rosalie empty hope. If she were mistaken, it would only lead to disappointments for Rosalie.

They were already divorced, anyway. It no longer mattered what Theodore really felt.

"Yes, I have no idea what's blinding him. I can't figure out what's so good about Cynthia Zeller. At least the woman Wesley fell in love with back then was a true talent."

Rosalie smiled. "Maybe Theo just found his soulmate. No matter who she is, she's bound to make him fall in love with her."

Love sometimes didn't make sense. Yet, sometimes it was all that mattered-even if others find it illogical and foolish.

"What about you? Do you like Theo?" Sydney asked.

Rosalie's heart raced.

Sydney stared at her. "What's the matter?"

"Mom, we're already divorced. None of this matters anymore." Rosalie's voice was hoarse, as if a blade was stuck in her throat and hurt her badly. "Let's eat. The food's getting cold." Sydney didn't pursue the matter further, and simply nodded. "Okay."
