StartNovelAnother week passed. Every night during this past week, Rosalie would go to Theodore's room and tuck him in.
She would also bring Jake to Theodore's room, soothing both father and son together. It was as if she had beca mother to the two of them.
Theodore no longer wanted to go to work. Unless there was something urgent, he would stay at hwith Rosalie and Jake, entrusting other matters to his subordinates.
The happiest among them was undoubtedly Jake. Both his parents were by his side, and his mother held him and played with him every day.
Theodore thought that this blissful twould continue indefinitely, but one day, everything cto an abrupt halt.

Theodore found a letter on her bed.
After that, he locked himself in his room, reading the letter over and over again, not stepping out for the entire day.
[Theo, I'm sorry. In the end, I decided to leave. I hope you won't try to find me, because leaving is my own decision.
I know that doing this will surely hurt both you and Jake, but I have no choice. These past days, I have continued having nightmares. Every time, I dream of Sebastian's last words whispered in my ear before he died-that every man who loveswill meet a tragic end.
I know Sebastian said those words to torment me. If I believe him, he wins. But I can't ignore the fact that the men who lovedhave all met terrible fates.
Whether it was Yerick or Sebastian, they both deserved their ends. But Justin's death was a devastating blow to me. And you... You have beclike this because of me. Tand again, you have nearly lost your life-all because of me. It is as if I am cursed. I bring misfortune to those around me.
The only thing I can do is to stay away from those who love me, from those I care about.
I have thought about this for a long time. I don't want to leave you or Jake, but I must. Especially after seeing what has becof you, I can't stay by your side and continue harming you.
But I also can't selfishly take Jake away, because he will be safer with you than with me.
Theo, I am the one who has wronged you. But I am truly afraid-afraid that I will bring disaster upon you and Jake. You two are the people I care about most in this world, and I cannot let anything happen to you. The only way I can protect you is by leaving you. Staying by your side, I live in constant fear, unable to eat or sleep in peace. Every night when I close my eyes, I see nothing but terrifying nightmares. I have already caused Justin's death. I cannot let you and Jake suffer the sfate.
So, I hope you can let go as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPlease don't worry. I will take good care of myself. If you truly care for me, don't clooking for me. Our separation is for the best.
Perhaps one day, I will return—when I feel that this curse has been lifted, when I am certain that I no longer bring misfortune to those around me.
Chapter 1450 1 Chapter 1450 2 Jake was sitting in his crib, playing with the servant. When he saw Theodore enter, he immediately got up from the crib. "Dada." Theodore turned to the servant and said, "You may leave." "Yes, sir." The servant stepped out and closed the door behind them. Theodore walked forward and picked up Jake, then sat down on the couch with him in his arms.
Jake noticed Theodore's reddened eyes. "Dada cry." Forcing a small smile, Theodore replied, "Yes, I cried. But I won't cry anymore." "Mama...?" Jake asked.
He hadn't seen his mother all day.
Theodore had chere specifically to tell Jake the truth. "Baby, your mother has left for now. We won't be able to see her for a while." The moment Jake heard this, tears immediately fell from his eyes.
Chapter 1450 3 As he said this, Theodore realized he couldn't even convince himself. He finally broke down, holding Jake as he wept. Father and son both wept bitterly.
