Chapter 159

Rosalie waited until the afternoon.

Actually, she had wanted to divorce earlier, thinking Theodore’s hungover would have dissipated by

now.

She picked up her phone again and called Theodore, but it went straight to voicemail.

Rosalie was getting frustrated.

Didn’t Caleb tell Theodore about their divorce plan? How could he just turn off his phone at such a

critical moment?

Rosalie went to find Anthony. He had a phone directory, and after finding Caleb’s number, she

dialed it.

On the other end, Caleb answered, “Hello.”

“It’s Rosalie.”

“Rose, what’s up?”

“Is Theo still with you?”

“He… He’s not here anymore.”

“His phone is off, I can’t reach him. Since he’s not with you, do your know where he went?”

“He…”

“Come on, Caleb. Please tell me the truth.”

“He… he’s in the hospital.”

Rosalie gasped. “What happened? Did he get into another accident?”

Could Theodore have been drunk driving again?

“Oh, it’s not an accident. He’s been in the room for a long time, and he didn’t open the door. I went

to check on him at noon, and when I found he hadn’t moved, I forced the door open. He was

unconscious, so I rushed him to the hospital. The doctor said it’s stomach bleeding.

“Which hospital is Theo in? Tell me quickly!”

Rosalie hurried to the hospital, where Caleb was pacing back and forth in front of Theodore’s room.

“Caleb!” Rosalie approached quickly, anxious. “How is he?”

Caleb said, “He’s been treated in the emergency room, and is still

unconscious.”

“How could he have stomach bleeding? Is it because of drinking?”

“Drinking is indeed part of the reason, but…” Caleb scratched his head.

‘But what? Tell me.”

“Don’t you know he’s been taking stomach medication all this time?”

Rosalie went silent. She remembered seeing Caleb buying medicine before, saying it was for

Theodore.

Back then, Caleb sounded like Theodore needed the medication. But later, Theodore told her he

wasn’t taking it long–term.

“You mean his stomach isn’t in good condition, and he’s been taking medication?”

“Yeah, he has a stomach condition and takes medicine regularly. He’s also careful about what he

eats. He avoids spicy foods, but he still likes to drink.”

Rosalie tightened her grip on the straps of her bag. “He never told me

about this. I even asked him, and he said he wasn’t taking it long–term.

“Maybe he was afraid you’d worry. Do you want to go in and see him?” Caleb asked.

Rosalie nodded, and cautiously opened the door.

Theodore was still unconscious on the hospital bed. She backed out, and closed the door.

“Did the doctor say when he’ll wake up?” Rosalie asked.

“He should wake up once the anesthesia wears off. But…” Caleb paused for a moment. “Are you

really going through with the divorce?”

“Yeah, I am.”

“No chance of turning back?”

Rosalie shook her head. “None.”

Caleb sighed. “It’s a shame. How did it come to this?”

“When did you start caring about me and Theo’s marriage?”

Caleb looked regretful. “It’s not that I care, it’s just… It feels uncomfortable. After all, Theodore’s a

good friend of mine. I feel like if you two divorce, he won’t be happy about it.”

Rosalie smiled wryly. “That’s unlikely. He might actually be happy. especially since after our divorce,

he can be with the person he likes.”

“You mean Cynthia.” Caleb sighed and crossed his arms. “If she marries Theo, I won’t want to talk

to that woman.”

“Why?”

“No reason.”
