Chapter 102
‘You were sick Why wouldn’t come back?”
Theodore was puzzled by her question. He was her husband, after alt It seemed odd that she even had to ask.
“But Cynthia’s also in the hornital, isn’t she?”
Cynthia had attempted suicide by cutting her wrists, while Rosalie only had a slight fever. Though Rosalie felt Cynthia’s attempt was likely Insincere–people who genuinely wanted to die rarely chose to cut their wrists–she knew Cynthia was important to Theodore
“Are you asking me to go back to the hospital? Theodore stared at her coldly, somewhat displeased.
“Well, you could. Your darling might be waiting for you.”
Hearing her sarcastic tone, Theodore felt exasperated He couldn’t tell if she genuinely wanted him to leave, or if she was just jealous
He sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed. Seeing his weary
expression, Rosalie softened He hadn’t slept all night, and he must
be exhausted
She remembered the last time he had a fatigue–induced accident. She didn’t want a repeat of that
So, she decided not to argue with him anymore Gently pulling at his sleeve, she said, “Theo.”
Theodore turned his head. “What now?”
He seemed tired and unwilling to argue with her.
“Lie down and rest for a while.”
Rosalie made space for him, and fluffed up a pillow.
“What, now you care about your husband? Just a moment ago, you were eager to get rid of me.”
Rosalie couldn’t deal with him. This man always wanted to nitpick. with her. If she fought back, it would never end.
“That was then, this is now. You’re tired, so you should sleep. Rest for a while.”
“Isn’t this your bed? Do you want me to sleep in it?”
Rosalie hadn’t realized that. She nearly forgot they were sleeping in separate rooms now. It didn’t seem quite appropriate to let him sleep in her bed.
She awkwardly bit her lip. “You can go back to your own room if you want. It’s up to you.”
Strictly speaking, this whole house was his. He could sleep wherever he wanted. Besides, it was just a nap; it wasn’t like they were going to get intimate.
Theodore stared silently at her for a moment, before taking off his shoes and lying down on her bed. He lay back, exhaling deeply.
“Your bed is very comfortable.”
As he settled in, he felt a sense of belonging.
Perhaps what made him feel a sense of belonging wasn’t just the bed, but the person beside him.
“Really?” Rosalie innocently pressed down on the mattress. “It’s the same as the one in your room, you know. They’re both the same. brand.”
Theodore smirked. “Maybe it’s just my imagination.”
She didn’t understand the meaning of his words Well, that was fine
Rosalie tugged gently at his coat. “You shouldn’t sleep with your coat on. Let me help you with that.”
Theodore obediently lifted himself up, allowing her to remove his coat. Seeing her earnest expression, it felt like they were back to before he brought up divorce.
Rosalie placed his jacket aside and unbuttoned his shirt, wanting him
to be more comfortable. She covered him with the blanket.
“Sleep now.”
“Rose,” he called out to her.
“What is it?” she asked.
Theodore stared at her for a while before finally saying, “Nothing.”
As Rosalie was about to leave, Theodore grabbed her wrist. “Where are you going?”
“You’re going to sleep, so I won’t disturb you.”
“Don’t go. Stay with me for a while.”
“Won’t I bother you?”
“Not at all. Just stay here with me.
With her by his side, he felt a bit more at ease. Otherwise, what was the difference between sleeping on the bed and sleeping on the floor?
Seeing his exhausted appearance, Rosalie couldn’t help but soften again. She nodded.
“Okay, I’ll stay with you for a while.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
