"Yerick, I'll do anything you ask of me, but don't hurt Steve. He's just a baby, and he knows nothing. Spare him, please."
"I was intending to spare him. Put the baby on the bed, quick! Or I'll kill him!" Yerick yelled warningly, losing patience.
Rosalie kissed Steve's cheek and tearily placed him on the bed. "What exactly do you want?"
"Rose, let's leave this place. There are way too many disgusting people around. I'll take you away somewhere where it's just the two of us."
"Where are you taking me to?"
Yerick pulled out a bottle of pills from his pocket. He twisted it open, took a pill, and presented it to Rosalie. "Take this."
"What is this?" Rosalie asked.
"Don't worry, it won't kill you. It'll make you lose consciousness for a while to make it easier for me to take you away."
"What about Steve? What will you do to him?" Rosalie asked with concern.
"Rose, didn't you ask me to spare him? I promise you that you can leave Steve at home while you come with me."
"How could I do that? He's still just a baby! Who will take care of him while he's all alone at home? Who will feed him and change his diapers?"
"Hmm, that's true." Yerick pondered for a moment before saying, "What you said makes sense, Rose. Why don't I bring Steve along? I can threaten you with him all the time."
Yerick made a move to carry Steve.
"Don't touch him!" Rosalie said agitatedly. She rushed to the bed and hugged Steve tight. "Don't touch him! Don't hurt my son!"
"What exactly do you want, then?" Yerick asked, "You either come with me alone or bring Steve along. I'm giving you a choice right now."
Rosalie didn't know what to do, either. What would happen if Steve were at home for a long time without anyone realizing he was there alone?
But if she took Steve with her, only heaven knows what Yerick that madman would do.
"Rose, have you decided?"
"If I go with you, what will happen to me? What will happen to Steve?"
"My dear Rose, I don't have much patience left. If you're worried about Steve, then take him along with you. If you want me to spare him, then leave him here and come with me. I promise I won't hurt him."
Rosalie was in a dilemma.
"Rose, I'll give you ten more seconds. Tell me your decision or I'll kill him."
Yerick's gun was still aimed at Steve.
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 !...
