Some time later, Rosalie realized that Jake was being rather sullen.
Each time she asked him whether something was wrong, he would brush her away, claiming that he was fine before running off.
It was a Saturday, and Rosalie didn't need to go to work. She was seated on the couch with a book when Chelsea ran over, her braids swaying behind her.
"Mommy, can you give me a hug?"
How could Rosalie say no to her adorable little daughter? She shut the book and said, "But of course. Come on over."
Rosalie opened her arms, very willing to show Chelsea affection.
Chelsea crawled up onto the couch happily, sitting on Rosalie's lap and diving into her embrace.
Jake happened to see it all.
Rosalie noticed Jake standing a short distance away and was about to say something to him when he ran off.
The smile on Rosalie's face faded as a look of worry took over.
At night, Rosalie put Chelsea under Theodore's care and went to Jake, wanting to speak to him alone.
"Jake, what's with you recently? Did I do something wrong?"
"No," Jake said as he fiddled with his toy robot.
Rosalie sat by his side. "What do you mean, 'no'? You've been sulking so much these days. Tell Mommy about it, won't you? If I've done wrong, I can certainly change," she said patiently.
"How are you going to change? You won't be able to change the fact that you love Chelsea so much," Jake complained.
Rosalie asked, perturbed, "Are you upset because I love Chelsea? But I love you, too."
"Who do you love most, me or Chelsea?" Jake asked.
Rosalie said, "I love both of you equally, I can't choose between one or the other."
"Not at all," Jake insisted. "You clearly love Chelsea more."
That was the reason why Jake had been feeling glum recently. He sensed that Mommy was closer to Chelsea and more polite and distant toward him.
Chelsea could boldly dive into Mommy's arms, but he was shy and didn't dare to do so.

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 !...
