Chapter 112
Rosalie wasn’t even angry, she just found it amusing. Cynthia w** just too ridiculous it seemed Theodore hadn’t told her about stealing
the resident register
Stil it was strange. It was such a big deal, but Theodore hadn’t mentioned it to Cynthia when it condemned both of them.
‘You’re right” Rosalie said. He cares so much about you, but I’m curious why he didn’t tell you about what was ploned today”
“I know about today’s plans,” Cynthip replied “He told me everything”
“Oh, really? So, what did he say? Rosalie asked curiously
She just wanted to see how Cynthia would play the fool. If Cynthia truly knew, would she remain so calm? Would she deliberately delay Theodore and prevent him from leaving her side?
“Theo said you guys are going back to have lunch with his
grandmother. Didn’t you just accompany her a few days ago? It’s not a big deal if he goes a bit later, right?”
“Oh, is that so? He only told you that we were having lunch with his grandmother, and nothing else?
“What else could there be? You better not be up to something! Theo doesn’t like manipulative women.*
Cynthia spoke as if she were trying to catch a thief red–handed.
Rosalie almost rolled her eyes. She couldn’t be bothered to say more to Cynthia.
“Fine. When Theo comes back, you tell him I said this. If he comes back too late, I’ll have lunch with Grandma first. Once we’re done, I’ll
leave. I can’t accompany Grandma while trying to get the resident register. If he doesn’t come for it, then so be it. We won’t divorce today. Bye.”

Just as Rosalie was about to hang up, Cynthia finally processed what
she said.
“Wait a minute!” Cynthia almost roared on the other end. “What did you say?! You’re going to get the resident register? When was this decided? How come I didn’t know?”
“Why does it concern you? Shouldn’t your darling be the one telling you? After all, it’s a big deal for both of you. Doesn’t he love you so much? I thought he’d have told you.”
Rosalie’s tone was sarcastic, and Cynthia didn’t like it one bit. Her expression turned ugly.
“Rosalie, you’re not playing some trick again, are you? Is it some kind of trap? If I ask Theo about this, will he get mad at me?”
“I don’t know about that. You figure it out yourself. Bye now.” Rosalie hung up without bothering to listen to more of her nonsense.
Cynthia’s mood remained unsettled for a long time. Theodore hadn’t taken his phone, so she couldn’t reach him and could only wait for his
return.
Eventually, Theodore came back with lunch in hand.
“Cindy, I’ve brought back lunch. Let’s eat,” he said.
“Theo, Rosalie called just now. I was worried she had something urgent, so I picked it up for you. She told me something, but I think it might be a joke,” Cynthia said.
Theodore paused slightly as he arranged the food. Then, he
responded indifferently as though he already knew what it was about, “What did she say?”
“She said you were going to your grandmother’s today to get the resident register so you two could process the divorce.”
Theodore’s hand, busy with setting down the dishes, paused momentarily. He furrowed his brows and then replied casually, “That’s right.”
Cynthia’s heart raced, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“Some things are better told once they’re done. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will only disappoint you. It’s just like last time, with the divorce papers. They were signed and then torn apart,” Theodore responded in a somewhat detached manner.
“Theo, are you saying we might not get the resident register today?” Cynthia asked urgently.
“I don’t know,” Theodore replied nonchalantly. “Until it’s done, no one knows the outcome.”
“Then why don’t you hurry back? If you’re not there, she can’t do it alone,” she urged.
