"Cynthia Zeller!" Rosalie called out to her. "You can't leave! I've signed the contract and swore that I won't tell anyone. I won't do that, I promise!"
Cynthia refused to budge. "I don't believe you unless you swear upon your son!"
"I can't swear upon my son! I can swear upon myself!"
Cynthia scoffed.
"Rosalie Young, what are you scared of? Do you have a guilty conscience? Are you worried you might implicate your son after swearing upon his name when you tell others about what happened today? You look as though you're ready to tell someone else about it right away! Otherwise, why do you not dare to swear?
"In that case, you can forget about getting this evidence. Your grandma will just have to die an unjust death while the culprit goes scot-free and even gets to enjoy life being Mrs. Spencer!"
Rosalie clenched her fists, fire burning in her chest. She pounced on Cynthia and tried to snatch the phone over.
Cynthia shoved Rosalie to the ground. "Trying to snatch the phone for me? There's no point since you can't even unlock it. What's more, I programmed it such that if the password is not keyed in over the next 10 minutes, the video and recording will be automatically deleted."
"No!' Rosalie yelled. "Don't delete them!"
"Then swear! So what if you swear upon your son's name? As long as you don't tell anyone about it, your son will be fine. As long as you keep your word, nothing will happen. There's no need to fear. Swear upon your son and I'll give you the evidence right away. Don't you want to take revenge for your grandmother?"
Cynthia's voice was like a chant, eating away at Rosalie's defenses.
Rosalie took a deep breath and finally said in a pained voice, "I swear, if…if I were to expose you, my son…he…he'll die a terrible death."
She bit her lips as tears fell down her cheeks.
"No, you should say that your son Steve will die a terrible death!"
"Cynthia, you…"

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 !...
