Over an hour after dinner, Rosalie lay on the bed, ready to sleep.
Just then, someone knocked on the door. Rosalie sat up from the bed. "Who is it?"
"It's me and Steve."
Rosalie immediately said, "Come in."
Theodore opened the door, holding Steve in his arms as he entered.
"Mama." As soon as Steve saw Rosalie, he immediately reached out his arms.
Theodore walked over to the bed and placed Steve on it. "No matter how I try to get him to sleep, he keeps calling for you, so I brought him over."
As soon as Steve was on the bed, he crawled toward Rosalie. "Mama, hug."
Rosalie hugged Steve and said, "Just leave him here. I'll put him to sleep. Thank you."
Theodore stood by the bed, watching her. "You don't have to thank me every time. I'm his father."
Rosalie lowered her gaze, and a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. "Theo, I'm sorry for keeping this from you. There were so many times I wanted to tell you, but for various reasons… In any case, I'm at fault."
A child's father had the right to know of his child's existence, but because she held grudges, Theodore never found out even though he had spent a lot of time with Steve.
"Rose, if this had been before, I would've blamed you." Theodore sat down on the bed. "I would've questioned you, and I might've done something unimaginable in a fit of rage, but now…"
Rosalie's heart sank. "What are you saying?"
Theodore smiled bitterly. "Nothing. It's late. You should rest. If Steve doesn't fall asleep soon, bring him to me. I'll try to get him to sleep."
Rosalie murmured in agreement, but even if Steve didn't sleep, she wouldn't bring him to Theodore for fear of disrupting his rest.
Theodore got up to leave, glancing at her before carefully closing the door.
Rosalie let out a soft sigh and lay back on the bed, holding Steve.
"Steve, I'm sorry it took so long for you to know that he's your father. You'll never lack fatherly or motherly love. I know he'll be a good father."

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 !...
