After half an hour, Rosalie went to Rebecca’s room and found the
older woman awake and reading a book. She wasn’t sure how long
Rebecca had been awake.
“Grandma,” Rosalie greeted as she walked in.
“Rose, is Theo awake?”
“Yes, Grandma. I made him some garlic soup, and he drank it.”
“Oh, child. Why are you so good to him? You care for him like you’re his mother. Make sure he doesn’t take advantage of you.”
“Grandma, it’s not much trouble for me to make him some garlic soup. If I don’t help him clear his head, he’ll be a nuisance when he acts tipsy around you.”
“If he’s a nuisance, I’ll make him leave,” Rebecca said bluntly.
Rosalie sat on the edge of the bed. “Theo and I will stay with you this afternoon, and then we’ll have dinner together tonight. How about
that?”
They had originally planned to sneak out the resident register during the day, but the plan failed. Thus, Rosalie had to extend the time.
She had to get the resident register. She would divorce Theodore. latest by tomorrow.
Rosalie refused to drag it out any longer. She didn’t want to watch Theodore continue to be involved with Cynthia during their marriage.
After the divorce, he could do whatever he wanted, and she wouldn’t have to see it.
Theodore said she was in a hurry to divorce. Indeed, she was in a

hurry now.
“What’s going on with you two today? You’re both so eager to accompany an old woman like me. Is there something going on?” Rebecca asked.
Her eyes were sharp and clear despite her age, shining brightly.
Rosalie frowned. “Grandma, what do you think we are? Of course we want to spend more time with you! You’re usually alone here, and we should take care of you more. Your words make it sound like we have ulterior motives.”
Rosalie did have ulterior motives. She hated the way she pretended.
“Fine. If you want to accompany me, of course I’ll be happy. Why don’t you two stay the night? I won’t let Theo drink anymore if you do that,” Rebecca said.
“Okay. Thank you, Grandma,” Rosalie said with a smile.
Theodore and Rosalie did spend the afternoon with Rebecca. They tried to find an opportunity, especially Rosalie, who was particularly
active.
She told Theodore where the box containing the resident register was, hoping he’d find the right moment to get it. Unfortunately, there was never a good chance.
Since Zane always kept a bunch of keys in hand, one of which was the key to the box, Rosalie couldn’t directly ask him for it. If she did, he would definitely get suspicious and might inform Rebecca, who would easily catch on to what they were up to.
So, the couple had to wait patiently.
In the evening, Rebecca had the kitchen prepare a table full of dishes

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 !...
