Chapter 115
Rebecca replied, “At that time, Wesley was as stubborn as a mule. He couldn’t be persuaded, no matter what. He really left with nothing, and gave up everything to chase after his first love. Before he left, he even had a fight with Sydney. Theo was about ten years old at that time.”
Rosalie frowned tightly. “Dad was really over the line ”
“Yes, I don’t know what got into him. He was truly blinded by something. What was so good about that first love of his?”
Hearing this, Rosalie also wondered what was so special about Cynthia.
“And then, what happened?” Rosalie asked further.
Suddenly, Rebecca burst into laughter.
“The story’s just too funny. That woman originally thought I couldn’t bear to let my son leave with nothing. As time went on, she realized that I really made Wesley leave with nothing. He had no money left, and had lost everything. When that woman realized she couldn’t become Mrs. Spencer, she left him.”
At this point, Rebecca couldn’t stop laughing.
“I’ve seen so many women like her, all just aiming to be a lady of the Spencer family.”
Rosalie couldn’t help but laugh too. “So, Dad was abandoned?”
“Exactly! Later, Wesley realized her true colors. He came back to apologize to me. I told him that apologizing to me won’t help, and that he should apologize to his wife. Sydney wasn’t willing to
forgive him and insisted on divorcing him, but Wesley refused,” Rebecca replied.
“After all the twists and turns, the marriage hasn’t ended. Sydney’s disappointed in him, and doesn’t want to live with him. She focuses on her career, and doesn’t care about Wesley. Even now, they’re still at a stalemate.”
Rosalie understood everything after hearing this.
“Mom’s attitude towards Dad is understandable, considering how Dad acted. It’s all Dad’s fault.”
Rosalie didn’t defend Wesley. After all, he was completely in the
wrong.
“Even though Wesley is my biological son, I can’t just turn a blind eye to what he did. I did talk to Sydney, subtly hinting and hoping they could reconcile. Ultimately, their relationship is up to them. I can’t force it. Whether Sydney can forgive my son and what happens in the future, it’s all up to them,” Rebecca said.
Rosalie truly admired Rebecca. Few people could be as clear–minded as her.
“Yes, what happens in the future is up to them. I feel like Mom’s career is still very important to her, though. She should be living a fulfilling life now.”

“That’s right. She’s very capable. She became the bank president through her own abilities, without relying on the Spencer family.
“Actually, she’s had a tough life. Her mother died early, and her father remarried when she was young. Her stepmother treated her badly, and even abused her when she was a child.
“After she married into the family, her father and stepmother shamelessly came looking for her. They wanted to climb the social ladder through her. I told Sydney that it was her decision, but she’s
very clear–headed. If someone treats her badly, she doesn’t care about their blood ties.”
Rebecca suddenly remembered something, and said, “Actually,
Sydney is quite similar to you in some ways. When I chose a wife for Wesley, I also considered her character.”
“Does that mean you arranged Dad’s marriage too, Grandma?”
It seemed similar to what happened between her and Theodore.
“Rose, do you think I’m too overbearing? To even arrange marriages?” Rebecca asked.
“I didn’t mean it like that, Grandma.”
