Theodore knew what happened between Sebastian and Rosalie.

At the very least, that man genuinely treated Rosalie well. He was by her side and cared for her when she needed it the most.

But what did Sebastian do for Sydney?

Mothers would generally protect their own children, but why was his own mother like this?

Theodore never expected his own mother to protect him.

Ever since he was young, he had solved his own problems all by himself. He never expected to receive care and help from his parents.

Did she have to make things so obvious? Even calling Sebastian by his nickname?

He could accept his mother defending Rosalie.

What he couldn't tolerate was his mother calling Sebastian's name so tenderly, when he did nothing for her.

Theodore wondered if he was being petty, or if this world was truly unfair toward him. Why was everyone, including his own mother, taking Sebastian's side?

Sydney's innocent calling of Sebastian's nickname was enough to tear Theodore's heart into two.

Sydney was stunned. Guilt and remorse filled her heart.

She lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, unsure of what to say at that moment.
