Chapter 175
Theodore could sense that the two women wanted to chat in private, and his presence made it inconvenient for them to do so.
So he said, “I’ll go grab a bottle of water.”
After he made an excuse and left, Stephanie finally said, “Are you two not getting a divorce?”
Rosalie smiled awkwardly. “I’m afraid that’s the case. We’re not getting a divorce for the time being.”
“You can’t be serious!” Stephanie said with a helpless look. “You two aren’t getting a divorce after going through so much? Are you two thinking straight?!”
Even she felt tired from just hearing about what was going on. And now, they were deciding not to go ahead with the divorce.
If this were a drama series, she’d definitely be cursing as she watched.
“Grandma isn’t in good health. She says she’s fine with us getting a divorce, but she’s in fact very upset about it. I don’t want her to be sad, so we decided to delay it,” Rosalie said.
“Until when are you going to delay it? You can’t possibly suffer for someone else’s happiness. Didn’t you tell me about Theodore and Cynthia having a rendezvous in the resort? Why aren’t you getting a divorce when they’ve already done something like that?! I really take my hat off to you!” Stephanie said sarcastically.
“Steph, that was a misunderstanding. They’ve cleared the air. They didn’t have sex,” Rosalie explained the situation to Stephanie.
Stephanie scoffed. “That woman is capable of anything. Was that a

desperate attempt of hers because Theodore refuses to be intimate with her?”
“Steph, things between Theo and I are very complicated. It’s not a clear–cut situation. As much as I want the divorce, I have to bear with
the current state for Grandma’s sake.”
Stephanie sighed. “You silly girl. I really wonder how long you can bear with this.”
“Theo told me that he’ll keep his distance from Cynthia.”
“Trust you to believe what a man says,” Stephanie said, her lips curled in a sneer. “He just wants his cake and eat it too.”
“Steph, Theo isn’t like that.”
“Why are you still speaking up for him when he’s gone to such an extent with Cynthia?”
“L…”
Rosalie didn’t know what she was thinking, either. Theodore and Cynthia had gone so far. Yet in the depths of her heart, she still
trusted that he wasn’t a man who would fool around with other
women.
However, she found it difficult to explain herself to Stephanie. It was natural that outsiders were unable to understand the decade–long relationship she shared with Theodore.
The funny thing was, Rosalie seemed to be the third party in Theodore and Cynthia’s eyes.
“Are you going to tell him about it?” Stephanie asked as she caressed Rosalie’s belly.
“I…” Rosalie said with hesitation. “I’m not sure yet. I was so certain that we’d be divorced. I never expected things to turn out this way.
Rather than telling Theo, I prefer telling Grandma about it. She’s been wanting grandchildren for the longest time, but I’ve been keeping this from her. I feel very guilty about it.”
Stephanie sighed again. “Seems to me that you’re living your life for Grandma. Perhaps you might be freed only after she passes away.”
Stephanie immediately slapped her palm over her mouth the moment those words left her.

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 !...
