Rosalie's heart trembled. She rushed forward and covered Theodore's mouth with her hand, her eyes filled with intense panic. "Don't say such things."

He had a son now, but he was speaking of an end to his lineage. She also didn't want Theodore to die a terrible death.

Theodore grabbed her wrist and suddenly pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips.

Rosalie's eyes widened, and her mind felt like it exploded in that instant. In a panic, she stretched out both hands to push him away, trying to resist- but he wouldn't budge.

Rosalie dared not struggle or shout too hard, fearing that Justin might hear. Justin would certainly come out to stop them. He was injured and running a fever; his body couldn't handle such an ordeal. He definitely wouldn't be a match for Theodore.

Rosalie had no choice but to helplessly close her eyes, allowing him to kiss her.

After a long while, Theodore finally let her go. He cupped the back of her head with one hand and held her waist with the other, his breath hot against her skin.

Rosalie struggled fiercely to break free from his embrace. She raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face, gritting her teeth as she spat, "You're shameless."

Theodore's eyes turned red, and he said in a strained voice, "You wanted to know whether I harmed him, didn't you? I told you I didn't, but you didn't believe me. The only thing I can do is swear and say these harsh words, but you won't let me. Rose, what is it that you want?"
