The topic of impending separation felt rather heavy and neither of them wanted to continue.
"Let me peel an apple for you." Rosalie picked an apple from the basket and peeled it with a knife.
They remained silent, not saying a word for a long time.
"Rose, how is Theodore?"
"Some things happened recently and he wanted some time alone. He said he'll be back soon."
"What happened?"
Rosalie told Justin about it.
Justin's brows furrowed. "Turns out that they are siblings. That's unfortunate for Theodore. Not only does he have a madman for a younger brother, but he also has an older brother who wants to kill him."
"Yeah. We don't know what to do about it. After he returns, I want to have a good chat with him. Even if I can't help him with much, I can offer some words of consolation."
"Do you still live with him now?" Justin asked.
Rosalie nodded. "Yeah, I'm staying with him now and taking care of Steve with him. I feel like Steve has been quite happy recently, perhaps because both of his parents are by his side."
Right after Rosalie said so, a thought suddenly came to mind and she looked up to explain, "Justin, staying with him doesn't mean I've reconciled with him. It's just more convenient that way to take care of Steve together. He and I…"
"Rose," Justin cut her off. "There's no need to explain. I understand."
Rosalie was under no obligation to explain herself. He wasn't anyone to Rosalie aside from an ordinary friend.
Still, Justin did feel rather sad hearing Rosalie say that she was staying with Theodore right now. They were already staying together, so reconciliation was probably on the cards. They had a child together, too—that alone was enough for Theodore to emerge as victor.
Rosalie was suddenly at a loss for words.
"Rose, just do as you please. You don't need to consider what I think, as long as you feel that you're right."
"Justin, will you return to Melrine immediately after you recover?"

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 !...
