Chapter 123 Rosalie went back to Theodore's room, feeling uneasy. She laid down. beside him, and covered herself with the blanket.
She wasn't sure if Anthony suspected anything. Anyway, there was nothing she could do now. So, she decided to take a nap first.
Over an hour later, Theodore groggily opened his eyes to find a woman sleeping soundly beside him. He shifted to face her, his slightly drunken gaze fixing on her.
Actually, a single bottle of wine wasn't enough to render him unconscious.
He moved closer, gently wrapping his arm around her before closing his eyes again.

When had he embraced her? Rosalie felt a bit dazed, but pushed aside any stray thoughts when she thought about their relationship.

"Theo, have ssoup.
"Feed me.
Rosalie chuckled at his childishness. "You wantto feed you? You're not unconscious. Get up and drink it yourself, quickly." Theodore's long eyelashes fluttered, and a hint of vulnerability -flashed in his eyes. "But didn't you feedlast time?" Remembering the last the was drunk and she had to feed him, Rosalie blushed. "You're not as drunk this time, right? Hurry up and drink it while it's warm." There seemed to be a hint of disappointment in Theodore's eyes. He sat up in bed and obediently took the garlic soup from her, drinking it down in one gulp. He did feel much better after drinking it. Rosalie gently touched his forehead and cheeks. Suddenly, he grabbed her hand and kissed it.
Startled, Rosalie quickly withdrew her hand, blushing. "What are you doing?" "Kissing you," he replied directly.

She placed the empty bowl on the bedside table.
"I found out where Grandma's resident register is. It's in a box, but it's locked. I know where the keyns. Let's work together this afternoon to get the resident register. If we can't do it today, we'll go for the divorce tomorrow. Either way, we can't leave empty-handed." She seemed determined to get the resident register.

"I have a headache," he replied, clutching the bedsheet like a sick child.
"I warned you not to drink so much at lunchtime, but you didn't listen, she scolded gently. Seeing him in discomfort, her concern grew.
"Drinking makes Grandma happy," Theodore said softly, looking at her. "I can't comfort her like you' do. Just a few words from you, and she feels really happy." Rosalie sighed. "Fine, get up and wash your face. It might make your feel better." Theodore let Rosalie pull him up from the bed.
