Chapter 32

Theodore quickly pulled out a tissue to wipe Cynthia’s tears. “It’s okay. Don’t cry.”

Then, he looked up at Rosalie‘ and said, “Rose, Cindy feels guilty about our divorce. I asked you to come today, hoping you could personally clarify our agreement and assure her that the divorce isn’t her fault.”

Rosalie was speechless.

So, Theodore intended to have her personally assure his beloved Cynthia that she wasn’t a homewrecker. How ridiculous!

Rosalie almost laughed out loud. Was it acceptable for Theodore to humiliate his wife just to make Cynthia feel better? Maybe he didn’t see it as humiliation, but it certainly felt that way for Rosalie.

Rosalie was about to speak when Theodore’s secretary suddenly knocked on the door and announced, “Mr. Spencer, Mr. Jones urgently needs to have a video conference with you.”

Theodore stood up. “Connect it to the conference room computer. I’ll be right there.”

“Yes, sir.”

After the secretary left, Theodore turned to Cynthia and said tenderly, I have to go discuss matters with our partners. I’ll be back soon.”

Cynthia nodded. “Alright, go ahead.”

Theodore approached Rosalie and said, “Rose, make sure you and Cindy have a clear conversation. Don’t let her misunderstand, okay?”

Rosalie remained expressionless, unable to shed any more tears. Staring into her hollow eyes, Theodore suddenly felt uneasy, and a

With that, he left the office.

Rosalie clenched her fists as she remained in place. Take care of Cynthia? Theodore was ridiculous. Cynthia was an adult, not a child in need of her care. Just how much did Theodore care about Cynthia?!
