Before his departure, Theodore carried Steve in his arms for a long time, saying many things to him.
"Stevie, I'm so sorry. If anything were to happen to Daddy, I can't take care of you anymore. I know I should be doing that and that I shouldn't be so selfish, but I can't help it. I have to go save Mommy. If I don't come back, you must listen to Grandpa and Grandma. They will take care of you."
Theodore kissed his cheek.
"I left you many videos, enough to last you till you turn 18. Remember to watch one every year on your birthday. I want you to know that I'll remember you forever."
He started tearing up.
"I'm sorry, Daddy needs to go. I'll protect myself and your mommy as best as I can. We'll definitely find a way back home."
Theodore put Steve back into his cot.
"Dada…" Steve leaned against the edge of the cot and blinked innocently at Theodore.
"I'm sorry. Daddy's leaving." He planted a final kiss on Steve's cheek and left, his heart breaking.
Steve plopped onto the mattress and started wailing, "Dada…!"

Theodore set off with a bunch of men.
Veloso and Blencalgo weren't neighboring countries and he first had to transit at Caltary.
Christopher leveraged his political influence to negotiate with people in Caltary to allow them in and infiltrate Veloso through them.
Their agreement came on one condition, which was that if Theodore's operation failed and things were to blow up, Caltary would claim ignorance that people from Blencalgo snuck into Caltary in disguise and would hold them accountable for it.
His request was reasonable. It was natural for each country to consider its own interests.
Their help was sufficient, as long as they could enter Caltary.
Theodore and his men arrived at the base they previously agreed on, which was along the borders between Caltary and Veloso. The terrain was rough and studded with wild vegetation. Rolling hills surrounded them, the aura of death hanging heavily around them.
Theodore instructed his team members to build a temporary base at the borders.
The team in charge of communications laid out all their high-tech communication gadgets and started to establish a steady connection. The intelligence and reconnaissance team stationed themselves at the border, surveying the situation there and ensuring that all was safe.
The one receiving them in Veloso had given them a map of the underground passageway, Sebastian's address, as well as a blueprint of his villa.
A car would await them at the end of the tunnel and send them to a spot two kilometers away from Sebastian's villa, where they would get off and go on foot. If they succeeded, they would meet at the agreed time. The car would drive them back to the borders.

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 !...
