NovelEnglishWhat's more, she had stayed up the entire night and kept him in the dark about it. It was natural that she was hot-tempered and flared up at him.
As for why she didn't tell him about it, he reasoned that it must be because they were divorced and she was keeping her distance, but couldn't stop herself from caring for him. Theodore drew the link in his own mind.
Sydney noticed the tender look in Theodore's eyes. "Seems like your ex-wife still treats you very well, and is so considerate toward you." The mention of his 'ex-wife' made Theodore's eyes go dim. He felt slightly uncomfortable, and stood up.
"Whatever it is, you should have advised her not to stay up the entire night. Her body is still in such a weak condition. What if something bad happened?" "I told her to sleep early, but she refused to listen. She's not a child. Could I have forced her to go to sleep? Even if it's not for herself, I thought she would go to bed early for the b..." Sydney's mind buzzed as she froze.

Sydney forced a smile, and said, "Even if it's not for herself, I thought she'd go to bed early to prevent Grandma from worrying about her." Sydney's tone was stiff, but her words made sense as she tried to make up an excuse. She had wanted to say that it was for the baby in her womb.
In fact, Sydney was very curious as to how Theodore would respond upon finding out about Rosalie's pregnancy. However, she promised Rosalie that she wouldn't expose her secret. She couldn't tell Theodore about it without her permission. If she messed things up and make the situation even more of a tragedy than it already was, it would be terrible.
Theodore still looked suspicious. He could sense that Sydney was making up an excuse to hide what she originally wanted to say.
But from how she looked, he couldn't tell what it was.
He was about to ask further, when Sydney said, "Rose treats you so well, but you don't treasure her and insist on marrying Cynthia. Will that woman sacrifice her beauty sleep to do something like this for you? Theodore's brows furrowed. "Don't talk about her. She's so ill right now, so don't talk bad about her behind her back." "I'm not talking bad about her. I'm talking bad about you, and I'm doing that in your face. I think you must be blind to abandon such an amazing wife and get entangled with another woman. You're an idiot, like your father is." "My father is an idiot, I'll admit that." Theodore's face turned cold, his voice tinged with frustration. "I know you once loved him, but things are different between Rose and me." "How is it different?" Sydney asked.
"Rose is..." Theodore suddenly felt pain pierce through his heart.
They were already divorced. What's the point of saying all these? Sydney wouldn't understand.
Rose didn't love him. How could he tie her down? She even told him that she wasn't happy with him, and had had enough of the marriage.
Her words were like a thorn in his chest, and the mere thought of it pained him.
As Theodore's eyes dimmed, Sydney seemed to sense something. "Did you ever talk things through with Rose?" Why did she suddenly think that the ones who needed a good chat were not her and Theodore, but him and Rose? There seemed to be many heartfelt words that they never shared with each other.

Theodore sighed. "We've said everything there is to say. Things are fine, now that we're divorced. We don't need to keep fighting like we did before." Each tshe cried, he felt as though he had committed a heinous crime.
Theodore's fingers caressed the notebook on the table, his eyes growing darker and deeper.
