Chapter 135

Theodore remained uncontactable over the next two days. Thankfully, Rosalie took the resident register from Rebecca on Friday and

managed to lie to her that she hadn’t had the time to replace her ID card.

The next two days were the weekends. She could tell Rebecca that the office was closed, and thus she couldn’t get her ID card replaced

Rosalie tried every way to get in contact with Theodore over these two days, but all her efforts were in vain. She called him countless times, but his phone remained resolutely switched off. She couldn’t imagine how far his relationship with Cynthia had progressed, to the point of them breaking contact with the rest of the world.

Left with no choice, Rosalie couldn’t only wait in anxiety and

heartbreak.

Monday came by, and Rebecca called her first thing in the morning. She cut straight to the chase.

“Rose, get your ID card replaced today and return the resident register to me this afternoon. Don’t drag this any longer.”
