"Do you feel relieved now? Have a good rest, and wait for a suitable heart donor. You'll be fine." "Theo, do you know?" A trace of melancholy flashed past Cynthia's eyes.

His face was showing hardly any emotion. He simply nodded, and said, "Don't be so agitated. Keep yourself calm, or it won't be good for y your heart.
Cynthia could see the calm on Theodore's face, and felt slightly annoyed. Now that he was divorced and could finally marry her, he should be over the moon. But why didn't he look happy at all? Didn't he want to divorce Rosalie? Cynthia felt uneasy the more she thought about it. She kept telling herself that Theodore cared for her, but she couldn't ignore the indifference he was exuding and the disappointment in his eyes.
After a moment's thought, she said with feigned empathy, "Theo, I know you two have been together for a long tand you treat her like your sister. The sudden divorce probably left you feeling a little empty inside." She held his hand, and gently rubbed her fingers across the back of his hand.
