Chapter 194
Sebastian sighed softly, then carefully laid Rosalie down on the bed. and tucked her in.
As he turned to fetch the thermometer, Rosalie caught his wrist.”
Don’t leave… Please don’t leave.”
“I won’t leave. I’m just going to get the thermometer to check your temperature.”
Rosalie’s eyes welled up with tears. “You’ll come back, right?”
“I’ll be back right away.”
“You’re lying to me. You won’t come back. You’ll go to be with Cynthia again. Every time she calls, you go to her. You say she needs you, but I need you too. Me and the baby need you!” Rosalie sobbed. “Theo, I’m pregnant. You’re going to be a father…!”
It should have been good news. Yet when she said it, it sounded so sad. She cried even harder.
“That’s wonderful. I’m going to be a father,” Sebastian played along, smiling tenderly.
“Are you happy?” Rosalie seemed incredulous. “Do you want this baby?”
“Of course I want this baby. It’s our little one. Why wouldn’t I want it?”
Rosalie was confused now, so he tried to go along as he didn’t want her to despair even more. Perhaps when she came to her senses, she would forget about it.
At least for now, a brief moment of agreement could make her happy.
“Theo…” Rosalie gripped his hand. “I thought you didn’t want this
baby. I was scared to tell you. I thought you didn’t want him.”

“How could I not? I want this baby. Please don’t cry,” Sebastian said. His voice was full of compassion, stemming not just from playing along, but from genuine concern.
“Okay, I won’t cry anymore,” Rosalie said, wiping away her tears obediently.

Sebastian bent down, his slightly cold hand touching her face. “I’ll get the thermometer. Count to sixty, and I’ll be back, okay?”
“Then I’ll start counting,” Rosalie sniffled.
“Good. I promise, I’ll be back before sixty seconds is up,” Sebastian assured her.
Rosalie nodded. Then, she released his hand and closed her eyes, silently counting.
As Rosalie reached around forty–something seconds, the bed sank down a bit.
“I’m back,” Sebastian said.
“Theo!” Rosalie exclaimed, throwing herself into his arms again. “I thought you wouldn’t come back. I thought you went to Cynthia again.
The closer she got to sixty seconds, the more scared she became. Counting made her cry again.
“Why would I do that? I said I’d come back, and I did. I wouldn’t lie to you,” Sebastian assured her.

Comments
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 !...
