Chapter 169
The memory of Cynthia claiming that Theodore would defend her just half an hour ago flashed past Rosalie’s mind.
Cynthia had a reason for being so confident. Theodore really was
defending her. Even if he knew Cynthia might have done it on
purpose, he still chose to defend her
How much did he love her to defend her to such an extent, despite knowing that she slandered his grandmother?
“Fine, it’s over since you said it’s over. But don’t forget: just because it’s over, doesn’t mean that it never happened.”
Rosalie then turned to leave.
Theodore grabbed her arm to stop her. “Wait, there’s one more thing.”
“What else is there? If it’s about Cynthia, I don’t want to hear it. Let me go.”
Just then, Rebecca and the rest walked in. “Rose.”
“Grandma,” Rosalie said as she shook Theodore’s hand off hard. She walked to Rebecca. “Grandma, are you all right?”
“I’m fine, really. We’ve talked things through about what happened today,” Rebecca said, looking to be in a good mood.
Sydney and Wesley were standing next to Rebecca.
Cynthia was with them as well, her head bowed and her face covered with streaks of tear stains.
Rosalie said, “Grandma, since you’ve talked things through, I’ll head back first.”

“All right. You’ve kept me company over the past few days, it’s time for you to head back home for some rest. But…” Rebecca turned to glance at Cynthia. “Ms. Zeller will be heading back home. Theo, are you going to send Rose or Ms. Zeller home?”
Theodore stood up from the couch, and straightened out his jacket.
Rosalie knew what Theodore would say even before he spoke. She said to Rebecca, “Grandma, just have the driver send me back home. I
“Rose, I’ll send you home,” Theodore said as he appeared behind her. Let’s go home. I haven’t returned in a while.”
Rosalie furrowed her brows as a look of surprise flashed past her face. She turned to look at him, thinking she might have misheard him. She finally snapped back to attention after a while.
“Aren’t you going to send Cynthia back?”
Cynthia didn’t expect Theodore to say that either, and glanced at him pitifully.
“Cindy, the driver will send you home. I have something to attend to today,” he said.
He had to send Rosalie home.
Cynthia knew it wasn’t a good idea to bug him under such circumstances, and had no choice but to bite her lip and nod.
Rebecca smiled. “All right, head back home now. You two can talk when you reach home.”
“Mom.” Sydney stepped forward., “I’ll head off too. I’ll come and visit you again next time.”
“Sure, go on ahead.”

When Sydney turned to leave, Wesley bade Rebecca a hasty farewell as well. “I’ll head off, too.”
Rebecca nodded as she saw Wesley follow closely behind Sydney.

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
