Chapter 1448

Even though Theodore didn't say it outright, Rosalie had already guessed.

"Did you get these injuries while saving me? And the one on your shoulder... It's a gunshot wound, isn't it?"

The thought of him enduring such pain, carrying his injuries while still staying by her side and losing sleep over it, made her heart ache.
