Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore) novel Chapter 133

Chapter 133 

After talking to Cynthia, the heavy burden that was weighing on Stacey’s heart finally lifted. She felt a sense of relief and also deep sympathy for Cynthia’s past struggles. 

Witnessing Cynthia’s experiences, Stacey learned that a girl’s home isn’t determined by marriage alone. What truly matters are the family members who genuinely care for her–her parents and siblings. With loved ones who treasure her, she’ll always have a home. 

If a girl’s parents and siblings don’t show genuine love, she migh indeed feel like she lacks a home after getting married, and a family like that won’t mean anything to her. But Stacey also understood that it’s not worth sacrificing oneself for family members who don’t appreciate her, similar to how Cynthia was constantly manipulated for her natal family’s benefit. 

With that in mind, Stacey left her room, a smile gently playing on her lips. She felt lucky to have such loving parents and three protective brothers. 

“Dad, mom,” Stacey called out to her parents. Patrick had come to the Aotori Shooting Base a few days ago because he missed his daughter and wife dearly, 

“What’s up?” Patrick and Debra turned to her simultaneously, their gazes affectionate. 

Stacey approached, taking a seat on the sofa opposite Debra, and said, “This morning, my foster father, Gary called me. He wants us to send an invitation to the Mitchell family.” 

The expressions on Patrick and Debra’s faces changed almost simultaneously, both looking angry 

After a moment of hesitation, Patrick asked, “Becky, did you agree?” 

Shaking her head, Stacey replied, “No, I said I needed to discuss it with mom first.” 

Debra breathed a sigh of relief, proud of her daughter for not being manipulated by the Mitchell family. 

“We don’t need to bother with them,” Debra immediately spoke up. 

‘I hadn’t even settled the score for all the years the Mitchell family had mistreated my daughter, and now they dare to try to use the Carter family? They don’t have an ounce of self–awareness Debra thought. 

Stacey nodded with a smile, “Gary mentioned Cynthia and asked me to give the Mitchell family a chance for Cynthia’s sake.” Patrick and Debra’s faces changed once again. They exchanged silent glance, both thinking. This is not good. 

Stacey continued, “But I just spoke with Cynthia on the phone, she told me not to bother about them. Cynthia said she and the Mitchell family are different and that I could do as 1 please. 

Patrick and Debra looked at each other once more, their expressions turning cheerful. 

“Cynthia is really kind.” Patrick said with a smile. 

“Absolutely. Do you have her number? Can I befriend her? Debra asked eagerly, wanting to know more. 

Stacey was surprised. “You want to befriend Cynthia? 

Debra nodded. “Yes. Cynthia is amazing. We should thank her properly.” 

Stacey smiled. “Sure” 

Tll let Cynthia know,” Stacey said as she checked her phone.

Debra nodded. 

Stacey quickly opened WhatsApp, found Cynthia’s chat box, and messaged her, sharing that Debra wanted to be her friend. 

Meanwhile, Cynthia suddenly received a message from Stacey, Her eyes gleaming as she quickly replied. 

After getting approval from Cynthia, Stacey shared Cynthia’s number with Debra. Upon receiving the number, Debra immediately added Cynthia on WhatsApp. 

Stacey didn’t know what Debra and Cynthia said after becoming friends. She was busy teaching Lillian and Kevin, helping 

the two kids learn to talk. 

Lillian and Kevin both loved playing with Stacey. They eagerly listened to her every word, mimicking her speech. As they became more eloquent, Stacey felt proud. 

At nine in the evening. Stacey put down her parenting book and took the two little ones for a bath. She didn’t leave everything to the nanny. Occasionally, she found time to personally care for the children, who both enjoyed bathing with her. 

After giving both kids a pleasant bath, Stacey took her own shower and then cuddled with the children to sleep. Before they dozed off, just like before, she brought out a storybook to read to them. Lillian and Kevin adored listening to stories, their eyes sparkling with interest as they paid close attention. 

They’d always been lulled to sleep by stories. No matter how captivating the tale was, they eventually succumbed to drowsiness. Their adorable little eyes slowly closed as they drifted off to sleep. 

Seeing the babies fast asleep, Stacey’s voice trailed off softly. She carefully placed the storybook on the bedside table and then turned to tenderly tuck both kids in. Gently kissing their foreheads, she softly whispered. “Goodnight, my darlings.” 

Stacey switched off the light, closed her eyes, and drifted off to sleep. When she woke up again, a new day had begun. After getting ready, she was all set to head to the set for filming. 

Lillian and Kevin were also up, but Stacey was in a rush and had to leave the caretaking to the nanny. 

Hastily finishing breakfast, she set off for the set. Rushing into the filming location, Stacey was taken aback to find Theodore there. She furrowed her brows and simply walked past him towards the set. 

“Rebecca!” Theodore rushed over and grabbed her arm. 

Stacey turned to look at him.
