"That's right. I thought that way too at first," Aurora said coldly. "I hate you so much for what you did. I did want you to rot in prison here, but then I thought about it more carefully. If you go to prison, won't Rosalie become single again? At that point, Theo will have a thousand reasons to get back together with her, and he'll abandon me.
"So, after thinking it through, I decided that you shouldn't go to prison and should stay by Rosalie's side forever. That way, Theodore won't have the chance to reconcile with his ex-wife. I'm actually doing this for my benefit more than yours."
On the other end of the line, Sebastian was silent for a long time.
Aurora's words made a lot of sense, but Sebastian, who was naturally suspicious, still couldn't fully trust her.
"Why should I trust you? If you're lying to me and this was a trap set up for me, wouldn't that mean I'm falling right into your hands?" he argued.
"You don't have to trust me," Aurora said, "but once Theo leaves the hospital, he'll immediately give the evidence to the police and cooperate with the investigation. I'll testify too. Theodore has hired the best lawyer to make sure you rot in prison. If you don't believe me, just wait for the police to come and arrest you."
Sebastian fell silent again. Aurora could hear his hurried breathing.
After a long time, Sebastian gritted his teeth and said, "Aurora, if you're lying to me, I won't let you off."
"Mr. Carter, I should remind you of something. If you don't let me off, it's equivalent to helping Theodore get back with Rosalie. Even though we hate each other, we can help each other. With you by Rosalie's side, Theodore won't be able to be with her, and with me by Theodore's side, I can stop him from getting close to Rosalie. We can cooperate to keep our lovers. If you want to deal with me, I have no choice. But I believe you aren't that foolish."
"I didn't expect you to be so cunning. You look so harmless, but you're so sly," Sebastian said.

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Unrealistic. What a comedy. If Sebastian and Rosalie are cousins, their families must have already prevented them to be together abroad. Isn't it bizarre that nobody is doing something to let them know of their family relationship? And pls stop putting Aurora in a high pedestal. Your readers want Rosalie to be genuinely happy,free of stupid misunderstanding. Thank you....
Another garbled story with lots of gibberish. Absolute rubbish. I got to chapter 26 and can't anymore...
Too many people involve.. sigh~ this is like the most angst novel i've read.....
I just wish one thing...that the writer will not bring too many unnecessary and unrealistic twists,too many misunderstanding,miscommunication that gives the reader the hint not to continue with the novel. In the long run, We lost our interest in this kind of unending plot....
Thanks for the update !...
