“So, you’re not angry at me?” Theodore asked, seeking reassurance.

“For now,” Rosalie replied.

Who knew what might happen later? She couldn’t promise the future, but at least for now, she wasn’t angry with him.

Theodore smiled contentedly, and planted a kiss on her cheek. “Thank you for not being angry at me.”

“It’s nothing. Now go to sleep.”

Theodore nodded faintly; just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID.
