"Are you cursingsilently, thinking I deserve this?" Given the atmosphere, he could guess what Caleb was thinking.
Caleb scratched his head. "I actually sympathize with you." "You don't need to sympathize with me. I know I brought this upon myself." Caleb sighed. "Will you get back up?" Theodore's gaze shifted to him. After a long pause, he nodded. "I will." It was good that Rosalie was fine. It was just that she didn't love him anymore. What was the point of wallowing in self-pity here? Morning sunlight streamed through the window, casting warm rays into the ward. The beams illuminated the bed, bathing the person lying there in a soft glow.

Her eyes shone with sudden clarity as she reached out to touch her belly.
"Baby... My baby." Sebastian, who had been dozing in the chair beside her, jolted awake at the sound.
"Rose, you're awake." She quickly grasped his hand. "Theo, where's my baby?" Hearing Theodore's name, Sebastian's brow furrowed tightly.

The sunlight streaming through the window blinded him a little, but he continued to watch Rosalie with a helpless expression that was heart-wrenching.

Sebastian bent down slightly and gently stroked her hair, his gazeincredibly tender. "It's great that you're okay. It doesn't matter what happens to me." Tears glistened in Sebastian's eyes.
Rosalie could see the deep sense of grievance in his eyes. She reached out, and lightly touched her rounded belly. Her baby was still here. Rosalie, feeling distressed, said, "Please don't hide things from me, okay?" X
