Chapter 18
After Rosalie’s checkup, the doctor reviewed the test results and said, “It’s just mild food poisoning. It’s nothing serious. You’ll be fine after a few days of rest.”
“Is that so?” Theodore seemed disappointed when he heard that.
When they arrived at the hospital, Rosalie had rushed to the restroom, and he clearly heard the sounds of her throwing up. At that moment, his heart had been heavy and filled with doubt. But now, the doctor was telling him she only had food poisoning.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Rosalie forced a smile. “See, I told you it was nothing. It’s just mild food poisoning. Let’s go home.”
Theodore took the test report from the doctor’s desk and examined it carefully. The results matched what the doctor had said.
“Then, give her some medication,” Theodore said.
After the doctor prescribed some medication for Rosalie, Theodore was ready to take her home. As they walked out, Rosalie saw
Stephanie in the hallway. Dressed in a nurse’s uniform, she was talking to someone.
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly grabbed Theodore’s hand. Wait a minute.”
“What’s wrong?” Theodore asked, turning to his wife.
“I’m thirsty. There’s a vending machine over there. I want to buy a bottle of water.”
“I’ll get it for you. Just wait here.”
Theodore handed the medication to Rosalie and walked towards the

vending machine.
As soon as he was gone, Rosalie quickly took out her phone and called Stephanie Carter, her best friend. When Stephanie answered the phone, she noticed Rosalle standing not far away from her.
She was about to walk over when Rosalie hurriedly said, “Don’t come here. Don’t let Theo see you. He doesn’t know you work here as a
nurse.”
Stephanie immediately understood what was going on and nodded. Fine. But after this is over, you need to explain everything to me, or I won’t help you anymore.”
“Okay, Steph. Please hide quickly.”
Stephanie left after Rosalie ended the call, just as Theodore returned with a bottle of water in his hand. He personally opened the bottle and handed it to her.
Rosalie was about to take a sip when Theodore suddenly grabbed her wrist.
“Wait.” He took the medication from her hand and took out a few pills, handing them to her. “Take the medication while you’re at it.”
Rosalie stiffened instantly. She had to be careful about taking
medication while pregnant.
“Why are you hesitating? Taking the pills will make you feel better,” he urged.
“I’m fine for now. I’ll take them after lunch. I shouldn’t take
medication on an empty stomach, you know?”
“You had breakfast a short while ago, your stomach isn’t empty. Take the pills now. Hurry up,” Theodore urged again.
Rosalie stared silently at the pills.

Seeing her hesitant expression, Theodore seemed to have a hint of suspicion. “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to take them?”
“No, I just don’t like taking pills. They’re hard to swallow,” Rosalie said, knowing that her excuse was weak,

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 !...
