The receptionist dialed Justin's room using the front desk phone, but no one picked up.
"I'm sorry, miss. The guest is not answering. He may not be in his room."
Rosalie panicked. "Justin, where are you?"
"Check the surveillance footage," Rosalie immediately told the receptionist. "Please, pull up the footage. I need to see where he went."
"I'm sorry, miss. We can't provide access to our hotel's surveillance footage to unauthorized persons. If you can't reach your friend, you should call the police. If law enforcement requests the footage, we will provide it to them."
Rosalie hesitated. Her first instinct was indeed to call the police, but she was worried as Justin's identity was complicated.
She stumbled out of the hotel entrance, took out her phone, and called him again and again.
By the sixth call, Rosalie collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably.
"Justin, where did you go? Didn't you promise to wait for me? How could you lie to me? You swore! You're a liar! You never keep your promises!"
She was sobbing so hard she could hardly breathe. Passersby stared at her, puzzled by her despair.
Just then, a familiar voice sounded above her. "Rose?"
Hearing the voice, Rosalie lifted her head and saw Justin.
She gasped in shock. "You…"
"Rose!" Justin immediately bent down and carried her off the ground. "Why are you sitting here? Did someone bully you? Tell me who it was!"
Holding her tightly, he glanced around, trying to find the person who had wronged her.
Realizing it was all a misunderstanding, Justin let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps he had been too paranoid.
He had rushed back as soon as he could, but he was still too late.
"You just went out?" Rosalie snapped, still furious. "You promised you'd stay in the hotel and wait for me! Why did you leave? Do you even know what time it is? I knocked on your door and found you weren't there. You didn't answer my calls either! Do you have any idea how scared I was? I thought you had left without saying a word!"
Hearing her words, Justin's heart ached. He quickly took out his phone from his pocket and saw that she had called him many times.
"I'm sorry. I had my phone on silent and forgot to switch it back. I'm sorry, Rose."
He pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly and soothing her. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
He didn't tell her about chasing the stranger. He didn't want her to worry. It was better for her to believe he had simply gone out for a walk.

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 !...
