Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1625

This was the first real trial in Thomas and Rosalind's marriage.

The sweet days were suddenly mixed with bitter medicine.

Such a matter required Thomas to make a decision. When he received the news,

he hurried home without delay. He didn't even stop to greet his mother and went

straight to Rosalind's room.

He came back cold from the snow, with flakes resting on his shoulders. After

shivering for a moment outside, he warmed his hands by the fire before daring to

hold her.

His voice broke as he said, "Why didn't you tell me you were ill? You must never

do that again. If you feel unwell, you must tell me at once."

With his return, Rosalind felt steadier and more at ease.

But when Thomas saw how thin she had grown, tears filled his eyes. "I've let you

suffer. It's my fault. I have not taken good care of you."

As she laid her head against his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat, the

worries and sadness of recent days slowly began to fade.

"I'm the one who has troubled you. You are so busy, yet I made you come home,"

she said.

"No matter how busy I am, someone else can take my place in the army. But no

one can take my place by your side." Thomas gently stroked her back. "I

understand everything now. Let me speak with the physician again, and then we

will decide. Is that alright?"
