Chapter 136
Two hours later, Rosalie sat at a table in a café, waiting anxiously.
A man walked in, donning a casual white outfit. It made him look a lot more approachable than usual in his business suit.
He went to Rosalie and saw her looking out the window, as if searching for something. He said softly, “Rosalie.”
The mention of her name made Rosalie turn to look at Sebastian.
She immediately asked, “Well, Mr. Carter, how are things going?
Sebastian sat opposite Rosalie. “Didn’t I tell you to just call me Sebastian? You sound like a stranger when you call me Mr. Carter.”
He was already calling her by name, after all.
Rosalie forced a smile, not wanting to dwell too much on the issue of addressing each other. She asked again, “Sebastian, how are things going?”
“I asked my friend for help to check things out, and I got an address. Theodore is still in Ashwick City, but in a very remote resort. He booked the entire place.”
“Resort?”
“Yes,” Sebastian said as he pulled out a name card from his pocket that belonged to the resort. “This is the one. The address and contact
number are indicated on it.”
“Sebastian, are you sure Theodore is in this resort?”
Sebastian nodded.
“Yes,” he said, “I’m sure about that.”

Rosalie pulled her phone out and dialed Theodore’s number. Once again, she found his phone still switched off.
She flung her phone on the table out of anger.

Rosalie grabbed the name card, and made a move to leave.
Sebastian grabbed her arm, and stopped her. “Wait.”
“Is there something else?” Rosalie pulled her arm back. The touch of another man made her feel uneasy.
“Apologies.” Sebastian retracted his hand, and said with an awkward smile, “I just want to tell you that according to information I’ve
received, Theodore booked the entire resort. His men are everywhere. Outsiders aren’t allowed in, and his men might stop you outside the entrance if you were to try entering.”
“But I’m no outsider. I’m his wife.”
Sebastian smiled faintly. “He switched his phone off, and clearly doesn’t want you contacting him. He probably doesn’t want to see you, either. If you head there, all the more he won’t want to see you.”
Rosalie thought about how the line went through the first time she tried calling Theodore, but he deliberately refused to pick up her call and even cut off the call. She subsequently found his phone switched off when she called a second time.
What Sebastian said made sense. He knew a man’s mind more clearly than she did.
Rosalie sighed in frustration. “What should I do, then? Time’s running out. I promised Grandma to return the resident register by five in the

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
