Aurora stood before the mirror in her wedding dress, admiring how she looked with a happy smile on her face.
She was marrying Theodore today.
Now that Rosalie had been dealt with, Aurora would be able to enjoy the rest of her life with Theodore in peace.
Their wedding was a low-profile one and they didn't invite many guests. It wasn't exactly the kind of grand wedding Aurora had imagined, but getting married to Theodore was the main point. Nothing else mattered.
Theodore stood alone on the balcony, smoking a cigarette. He looked suave in his wedding suit, but an air of despondence hung around him.
Wesley approached him. "Theo."
Theodore turned his head to glance at him. "What is it?"
"Your mom's here."
"Great," Theodore said. "Both of you can be witnesses to the wedding."
"Theo, you're all grown up and capable of making your own decisions. As parents, there's nothing much we can comment on. Aurora is pregnant and you should bear the responsibility. As long as your conscience is clear."
Theodore flung the cigarette on the floor and stomped on it.
"Dad, Rose and I got divorced much earlier than you and Mom did. You two dragged things out for a long time and suffered a lot. I guess that makes me more fortunate than the two of you."
Despite his words, Theodore smiled bitterly and turned to leave.

Rosalie was at home, keeping Steve's toys, when the doorbell rang.
After she was done, she stood up, straightened up her clothes, and walked to the door. She looked through the peephole and her expression changed.
"Cynthia, what are you doing here? How did you know I live here?" she asked.
"That's easy. Open the door. I have something to tell you."
"I have nothing to talk to you about. Please leave."
"Don't you want evidence of foul play in your grandmother's death?" Cynthia raised her phone.
Comments
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 !...
