Aurora and Angie watched as Rebecca tumbled down the stairs, almost letting out a scream in shock. They instinctively reached out to pull her back, but it was already too late.
The two women stood at the top of the stairs, completely at a loss.
Aurora immediately accused Angie. "You pushed her!"
"Me?!" Angie retorted, her voice sharp. "It wasn't me! You were the one who pushed her! I was only trying to help you, and now you're blaming me for it!"
The tension between them escalated, and it seemed they were about to turn on each other.
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Aurora knew she couldn't afford to argue with Angie at this critical moment. Fighting over who had pushed Rebecca down the stairs would only lead to their mutual downfall.
"Angie," Aurora said, grabbing her hand firmly. "What's done is done. We have to cover this up, or we're both finished. We're in this together now, so don't let anything slip."
Angie wiped the cold sweat from her brow. "What do we do now?"
Aurora thought quickly and said, "Listen carefully. If anyone asks, we heard a noise and came out to check. That's when we saw Rebecca falling down the stairs. It has nothing to do with us. Got it?"
"Yes, yes." Angie nodded vigorously. "I got it."
The two of them agreed on their story and resolved to keep the incident hidden.
Whether it was Angie or Aurora who had pushed Rebecca down the stairs no longer mattered. They were both involved.
Now, they were in the same boat. If the boat sank, they would both go down with it.

Angie still felt uneasy. "Aurora, if Rebecca died, it'd be over and done with. But she didn't. Instead, she's in a coma. What if she wakes up and talks?"

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 !...
