However, if she really did that, things would only become more complicated.
She and Theodore were already divorced, but she was now suddenly pregnant with his child. Meanwhile, Cynthia was about to marry into the Spencer family. The scenario was so absurd that it was unimaginable.
The only way to simplify things was for her to silently give birth to the child alone. This way, the problem would be solved.
"Rose, do you hate Theodore?" Rebecca suddenly asked.
Rosalie was startled, then sat up straight. "Grandma, why are you suddenly asking me this?"
"Answer me first. Do you hate him?"
Rosalie flashed Rebecca a small smile. Her gaze was calm as she said, "Grandma, I don't hate him."
"Really? He made so many mistakes and hurt you so much."
"Yes, he hurt me, but it’s not wrong to not love someone. If not loving someone is a mistake, then we’re all in the wrong. We can't love every single person in this world."
"You’re always defending him, and you never put yourself first. You’re too kind."
Rebecca loved Rosalie because she was so kind, but sometimes, Rosalie's kindness broke Rebecca’s.
Rebecca sighed. "Yes, but no matter what his childhood was like, he should be responsible for his decisions as an adult. When you make a mistake, you should be punished."
"But he’s already been punished. Even though you hit him, he wasn't angry with you or me. When my mother-in-law deliberately made things difficult for me, he pulled me behind him to protect me. I never expected he’d still do that even after our divorce. He’s already done his best."
Rosalie remembered the scene vividly. He was willing to argue with his parents for her sake. He still protected her even after the divorce, which was something not everyone would do.
"Really? Was Sydney particularly harsh and fierce to you?" Rebecca asked.
Rosalie nodded. "Yes. Mom was in a bad mood for some reason. She wasn't like this before. I’m puzzled as well."
