After Theodore left, Jake looked glum.
"Jake, what's the matter?"
He shook his head. "Nothing."
"Are you upset that your dad was fierce to you? Is your dad always so fierce to you?"
Jake nodded with a pout.
Rosalie's heart ached. "I'll tell him not to be so fierce to you for no reason."
Jake finally broke up into a smile, but very soon, his face fell again, looking as if he had something to say.
"Jake, what's the matter? Do you have something to tell Mama? Just tell me, it's fine."
"Yeah, Jake. Mommy really wants you to talk more to her. Anything will do," Chelsea chimed in.
"Can you be with Dad again?" Jake said after pondering for a long while.
Rosalie was stunned by his question. "Jake, why did you suddenly ask that?"
"I just want to know. Can you tell me?"
Rosalie could sense that Jake was asking the question very seriously, and couldn't bear to give him a perfunctory reply. "Jake, although your dad and I are divorced, we'll always be your parents. We're family."
"So you don't want to be with Dad? Even if Dad is very nice to you, are you still not willing to be with him? Do you not like Dad at all?" Jake pressed.
Rosalie explained hurriedly, "It's not that I don't like your dad. Too many things have happened between us, and it's too complicated. You're still young…"
"I'm not young anymore," Jake said, slightly upset. "You always say that I'm young, but I'm not young at all. Also, you adults always refuse to tell me many things just because I'm a kid, but Dad isn't willing to tell you some things even though you're an adult."
Rosalie asked in doubt, "What things is your dad not willing to tell me about?"
"No…nothing." Jake bit his lip. "Oh, yes, will people die without a liver?"
"Yes, they will, but don't worry. I'm in the hospital where it's very safe. I won't die," Rosalie said.
"Will the one who gives you his liver die?" Jake asked.
Rosalie was surprised to hear his question. "Jake, did you hear something? Why are you suddenly asking that?"
"What if the person who donates his liver to you dies?" Jake asked, making Rosalie even more confused.
"What exactly happened?" She suddenly had a bad feeling about things.
Jake shook his head. "Nothing. I need the toilet."
Jake ran to the washroom. He heard what his dad had said to the doctor earlier, and he could sense that his dad didn't want his mom to know what he was doing.
But his mom just said that one would die without a liver. Wouldn't his dad die if he donated his liver to his mom?
Why must he lose either his dad or mom?
Jake sat on the toilet bowl and started crying. He covered his mouth for fear that his mom might hear him.
Just then, the doctor walked into the ward. "Ms. Young."
"Dr. Landon, you're here."
He approached her and said, "I have news for you."
"What is it?"

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 !...
