Chapter 171
Rosalie’s grip tightened over her phone, feeling miserable. Her heart. broke thinking about tears streaming down Rebecca’s old, wrinkled. face.
She had been keeping Rebecca company all this while, but she didn’t. even realize what Rebecca was feeling. And yet, Theodore did.
Perhaps she had misunderstood him all along. It wasn’t that he didn’t care about Grandma, he simply didn’t show his concern as explicitly as she did. He had never been an expressive person.
Her palms started sweating. “Are we going to just keep dragging things out?”
“I promise you that I’ll keep my distance from Cindy.”
Rosalie found that laughable. “Keep your distance? I can’t just turn a blind eye to what you two have already done!”
“Nothing happened between us!”
“Don’t bother explaining yourself. I saw it clearly with my own eyes.”
The image of them in the resort made pain pulsate through Rosalie’s heart.
“What you saw may not be the truth.“”
“What’s the truth, then?” Rosalie demanded. “Was it not true that your and Cynthia were locked in an embrace? Was it not true that you and her were lying on the same bed? Do you think I’m a three–year–old child?”
She said it so flatly, as if emphasizing even a single word would exhaust her.

Theodore remained silent.
Yet, when he reached a junction where he was supposed to go straight, he chose to turn right instead.
Rosalie recognized that it wasn’t the usual route back home, and immediately asked, “Where are you going?”
Theodore didn’t answer her, and continued driving until he stopped the car in front of a bungalow.
He unbuckled the seatbelt and stepped out of the car, before going to the other side and opening her car door. “Come out.”
“Where are we?” Rosalie asked.
Theodore ignored her question once more, and repeated himself. Come out.”
Rosalie stepped out of the car. Theodore slammed the door shut, grabbed her hand, and brought her into the bungalow. He knew the passcode, and walked straight into the building right after keying it in.
A middle–aged female servant greeted them the moment they stepped in. “Mr. Spencer, you’ve come.”
“Is Cindy back?”
“Ms. Zeller isn’t back yet.”
“All right. Go back to your tasks.”
Theodore led Rosalie to the hall, where she sat down on the couch.
Rosalie looked around her. So this was where Cynthia lived.
“Why did you bring me here? Are you trying to tell me that you and Cynthia are so close, you even know the passcode to her house? Does she also know the passcode to our house?”

No wonder she felt uncomfortable the moment she stepped in.
The female servant served them two cups of water, which she placed on the coffee table before taking her leave.
“Why in the world did you bring me here? Tell me, or I’m leaving.”
Rosalie was about to stand up, when Theodore grabbed her arm. ” Wait… Wait here for a moment.”
“Why?”
“I have something to tell you.”
“I have nothing to say to you,” Rosalie said, bent on leaving. However, Theodore’s grip on her arm was way too tight. She had no choice but

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 !...
