"You saved him?" Rosalie scoffed. "The cheek of you to say that! You shot him in his chest—I saw it myself! Theo was lucky that he managed to survive."

"Rose, oh Rose. You're really too naive. Did you forget? You chose for me to injure Theodore and protect Sebastian. Why are you blaming me now? If you were worried about Theodore dying, you shouldn't have made that choice at that time."

"Enough!" Rosalie yelled furiously. "You were clearly the despicable one who threatened me! You were the one who made things turn out this way so everyone would suffer and be in pain, and now you're trying to shift the blame on me?"

"Rose, what I wanted to tell you was that you should have chosen to let Sebastian get injured."

"None of them should have been injured! Yerick, you're wicked through and through!"

"Me, wicked? Hahaha..." Yerick laughed out loud. He pounced on Rosalie and pressed her against the window sill, his hands gripping her shoulders so hard, they almost crushed her bones.

"Rose, you only know so much. Did you know that Sebastian secretly helped me, too? He helped me acquire Cynthia's father's company. I'm currently the owner of that company, and it's been growing well recently. I'm very rich right now."
