Chapter 162
A few days later, Rosalie was sitting with Rebecca, knitting a sweater. These past few days, she had been spending time with Rebecca.
“Rose, when are you and Theo planning to divorce?” Rebecca asked.
Rosalie smiled lightly. “Grandma, he’s been a bit busy these days. We’ll do it when he’s less occupied. But don’t worry. Even if I divorce him, I’ll still come to see you often. You’ll always be my grandmother.” “I just want you to be happy soon. How busy can he be? He doesn’t even have an hour to spare for a divorce.”
Before, it was Rebecca who didn’t want them to divorce. Now, it seemed she was urging them to split up. A topic that used to be sensitive could now be discussed easily.
“He’s indeed very busy, Grandma. There’s a lot going on with the company, and as the CEO, there’s a lot he has to take care of…”
“Enough,” Rebecca interrupted her. “Don’t hide things from me. I know he’s in the hospital.”
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat. She looked up, the knitting needle almost pricking her hand.
“Grandma, you…you knew?”
She had been hiding it these past few days, afraid that Rebecca would find out. She didn’t expect the latter to already know. It seemed like they shouldn’t hide things from her in the future.
“I knew you were afraid I would worry, so you didn’t say anything. But don’t forget, even though I’ve retired, I still know what’s going on with the company. Theo hasn’t been to the office for days, and I could easily find out with just a phone call

She was even more shrewd than they thought.
“You don’t have to worry, Grandma. He’s supposed to be discharged today.”
“I know. Oh, that child’s stomach has never been good. Even if he’s discharged today, if he keeps agitating it, he’ll end up back in the hospital. He doesn’t take care of his stomach properly, and just keeps drinking.” Rebecca sighed.
“Did you always know about his stomach?”
“Yes, I’ve always known.”
Rosalie frowned slightly. “And I’m the only one who didn’t know? No one ever told me about this.”
“Theo didn’t want anyone to tell you.”
“Why?” Rosalie was shocked.
“He didn’t want you to worry, so he told me not to tell you. He believed he could slowly take care of himself. Having one more person worrying wouldn’t help, so I didn’t say anything.”
“Grandma, you should’ve told me earlier.”
Rosalie felt a bit guilty. If she had known about Theodore’s stomach. issues earlier, she would have definitely tried to take better care of him during their marriage. She would have kept an eye on him, and made sure he didn’t drink.
“Well, what good would it do to tell you earlier? Now that you’re
getting divorced, I feel really upset,” Rebecca said.
As soon as this was brought up, Rosalie’s complaints disappeared, leaving only guilt towards Rebecca.
“Alright, let’s not talk about these unhappy things. Theo being

hospitalized is his own doing. It has nothing to do with you,” Rebecca comforted Rosalie.
At this point, the old lady seemed to have come to terms with it.
“Grandma, Theo’s getting discharged today. I plan to go with him to handle the divorce procedures this afternoon.”

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 !...
