After a while, Theodore cback with a bouquet of lilies.
He got into the car and presented the bouquet to Rosalie, asking, "Does it look nice?" Seeing Theodore full of smiles made Rosalie furrow her brows. "Not bad. I'm sure Aurora will like it." The smile on Theodore's face froze.
Then, he said rather disappointedly, "This is for you and the baby, not for her." Rosalie sat stunned for a while. "What did you say?" "Lilies are your favorite flowers. These are for you." Theodore was worried she might misinterpret his words, so he made himself very clear.

"Why bother? Givingflowers for no reason, you're..." "I just want to give you flowers. If you don't like them, just give it to Grandma and tell her you bought it for her." Rosalie remained silent for a while. Since he had already bought it, it would be a pity to throw it away just like that.

"Did Sebastian not have any objections? Is he not fighting for custody of the baby?" Rosalie couldn't explain this to Theodore right now, so all she could give was a vague answer. "He can see the baby since we parted amicably. This is between the two of us, so you don't need to bother yourself with it." en.kikistories Theodore was rather disappointed to hear that. He nodded. "Got it." Rosalie stared at Theodore's side profile, suddenly feeling suffocated. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but eventually swallowed her words back.

They didn't speak at all for the rest of the journey.
Theodore drove Rosalie to Grandma's place. When they reached the door, Aurora and Angie immediately greeted them there.
Aurora approached Rosalie enthusiastically. "You're finally here! We've been waiting for you for a long time. Grandma keeps talking about wanting to see you."
