Chapter 170
Rosalie sat in the front passenger seat in the car while Theodore drove on in silence.
There were a few times Rosalie had the urge to speak, but seeing Theodore remaining silent made her hold herself back.
It felt like a competition in which the first to speak loses.
Just as that thought popped into Rosalie’s mind, Theodore spoke up.
“I hope you won’t think about what happened today again.”
Rosalie furrowed her brows. “Then why are you mentioning it again?”
“I just want to make things clear. I’ll look into what exactly happened with the operation.”
Rosalie scoffed. “In that case, you’re admitting that you think. Grandma did it even before investigating things.”
Theodore said, “It is precisely because I think that Grandma’s the one. that I didn’t go ahead with the investigations. Whatever it is, Cindy. has already paid the price.”
Rosalie sneered, “So, whatever she says is right and whatever she does will be forgiven, just because of her health condition?”
“What if it were you? Do you want to be in poor health like Cindy and pitied, or to be in good health but misunderstood?”
Rosalie chuckled. “So being in poor health allows you to receive unconditional protection and pity. I’ve learned something new today.”
According to his logic, a person can do whatever she likes because of her poor health, and be forgiven even when she does something wrong. Such a person was to be pitied, after all.

Theodore didn’t explain himself further on this matter. Since it was already over, then so be it.
The more he explained himself, the more it might upset Rose, he thought.
“Let’s go through with the divorce today. We’ll head home to fetch the resident register. We can’t delay this any longer,” Rosalie said.
“Rose, I want to discuss the divorce with you.”
“What about it do you want to discuss?” Rosalie asked.
Theodore suggested, “Shall we not get a divorce for the time being?”
Rosalie was stunned. “What did you say?”
“Let’s not get a divorce for now,” he repeated himself.
Rosalie suddenly laughed out loud–not out of joy, but because she found the entire situation laughable,
“What exactly is wrong with you?! You were the one who asked for a divorce in the first place. Fine, I can accept that many things have happened that stopped us from going through with the divorce. But now, you’re telling me that you don’t want a divorce? What’s this? Do you have some sort of fetish that makes the prospect of being with Cynthia less thrilling after the divorce?”
She really couldn’t understand this man.
Theodore’s brows were tightly knitted.
“I didn’t mean that,” he said.
“So what exactly did you mean?”
“You saw for yourself what happened today. The Spencers will never approve of Cindy. Grandma said many things to me, but one thing is for sure: she’s getting older, and her health is deteriorating. If we get

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 !...
