Theodore knew what happened between Sebastian and Rosalie.

At the very least, that man genuinely treated Rosalie well. He was by her side and cared for her when she needed it the most.

But what did Sebastian do for Sydney?

Mothers would generally protect their own children, but why was his own mother like this?

Theodore never expected his own mother to protect him.

Ever since he was young, he had solved his own problems all by himself. He never expected to receive care and help from his parents.
