At night, Rosalie sat by the bedside and read a bedtime story to her daughter. In it, the prince and princess lived happily ever after.
Chelsea gently held Rosalie's hand. "I want to sleep with you, Mommy."
Rosalie pinched her tiny nose. "You're already so big, and you still want to sleep with Mommy?"
"I just want to. I want to stick to Mommy forever."
Chelsea dove into Rosalie's embrace.
Rosalie doted on her daughter very much. "Alright, I'll stay here with you."
Suddenly, she was reminded of Jake.
She mustered up all the courage she had today to try to see him, but all she got was seeing him having a great time with another woman.
She couldn't be so selfish as to rush up to Jake and claim that she was his mother, so she retreated home.
She didn't know what she should do.
Rosalie missed Jake dearly.
She knew she had disappointed Jake, depriving him of the love of a mother. Perhaps because of that, she poured all of her love to Chelsea. Yet the more Rosalie did so, the more she felt she was disappointing her son. She soon spiralled down a vicious cycle.
"Mommy, what's the matter?"
Chelsea could sense that Rosalie was not in a good mood.
"I'm fine. Go to bed, darling."
Just then, Rosalie's phone vibrated. She looked at the incoming phone number, and her heart skipped a beat.
She recognized the number. It belonged to Theodore—he never changed it.
She, on the other hand, had changed her number. He clearly had her investigated, since he was the one calling her.
"Chelsea, I need to take a call. Go to sleep first."
Rosalie left the room with her phone in hand. Along the corridor, she took a deep breath and answered the call. "Hello."
Her voice was obviously trembling.
Silence ensued on the other end of the call for at least half a minute.
"Let's meet."
Rosalie tried to suppress her agitation and calm herself down. "Sure. Where do you want to meet?"
"Let's talk over a meal," Theodore suggested. "Make a reservation with a restaurant and contact me. I'll try my best to bring Jake with me."

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 !...
