Rosalie asked this on purpose as she wanted to hear Sebastian's response. Had he truly returned to the country out of guilt, or was everything just a coincidence and the company issues had truly forced him back?
"Actually, Rose," Sebastian said, "after I came back, I realized the situation is worse than I thought, so I won't be going to Melrine anytime soon. I just can't find the time."
"I see." Rosalie lowered her gaze, a little disappointed.
It just so happened that he returned to the country now, but it seemed that he also didn't dare to come back to Melrine. Was he really avoiding the authorities?
But who had tipped Sebastian off? Could Sebastian have planted someone around Theodore? Who could it be?
Rosalie forced a smile. "Alright then, I hope you sort out the company's matters at home. Don't worry about things here in Melrine. I'll come back as soon as I finish my studies."
"Okay. Rose, why don't you talk to Steve for a bit?"
Rosalie looked at the child on the screen, her eyes filling with tears. Her heart ached with both love and sorrow. "I'm sorry I can't be by your side right now, Steve. When I come back, I'll never leave you again."
Steve seemed to understand Rosalie's words. His little hands reached out into the air, as though trying to grasp something.
Rosalie nearly broke into tears. "I'm sorry, Steve. I'm so sorry."
"Rose, why are you apologizing? This isn't your fault. Don't worry too much. He's still small and doesn't know much. He has me, his biological father, by his side. I'll take good care of him. Don't you trust me?" Sebastian said.
"I…" Rosalie didn't know what to say.
The words "biological father" were probably deliberately used by Sebastian. He really did love the child as though Steve were his own—but in the end, this wasn't his child.

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Why aren't u updating......
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 !...
