Rosalie's voice was tinged with resigned sorrow. She had no energy to scold him or get mad at Theodore, and every word she said was drenched with helplessness.

"I have a question for you that I hope you'll answer honestly," Theodore said.

"What is it?" Rosalie asked. "Let me go before we talk."

It wasn't appropriate for him to be holding her like this in public.

Theodore let go of her arm. "Rose, tell me the truth. Did you tell Sebastian to leave?"

His question was neither interrogative nor asked in anger. He simply wanted to know the answer to it.

Rosalie's eyes flashed with doubt when she heard his question. She understood every word he spoke, but when strung together in the question, she didn't seem to comprehend at all.

"What do you mean by that? What do you mean I told him to leave?" she shot back.

"Did you already know what Sebastian did and thought that I would cause him trouble, so you told him to leave?"

Rosalie chuckled. "Do you know what you're saying? I only knew what he did when you showed me the video evidence. What you're saying makes it sound like I was in cahoots with him to flee the country."
