Chapter 234
Rosalie would cover her ears as her entire body shook. She knew that if she opened the door, her aunt might beat her up.
Although her aunt was fierce to her and would scold her when she was sober, the latter seldom laid a finger on her. However, it was a different matter when her aunt was drunk and lost all senses.
After getting beaten up twice, Rosalie made it a point to lock herself up in her room each time her aunt got drunk. After screaming at her incessantly and finally running out of steam, her aunt would go back to her room and fall asleep, and Rosalie would be safe.
That was a very dark period in her life. She frequently witnessed her aunt bringing different men home. Each time that happened, the only thing she could do was to hide in her room and cover her ears.
Subsequently, her aunt abandoned her at the entrance of SK
Enterprise’s office, telling her, “Rose, wait here for me. I’ll come here and fetch you in a while.”
Rosalie ended up waiting for her for two days, during which she kept pacing back and forth at the entrance of SK Enterprise’s office. building. She eventually couldn’t withstand it any longer and fainted.
When she woke up, she saw a kind face looking down at her.
She had been through some rather tough times, but after Rebecca took her in, her life took a turn for the better. The Spencers‘ household was filled with care and concern, so much so that the darkest days in her childhood became nothing but a faint memory. Her misfortune and blessings were indeed deeply intertwined with each other.

you back then, you were but skin and bones, and with bruises all over your body. It was obvious you had suffered much. The more I think about it, the more upset I get.”
“Grandma, I’m doing fine right now, aren’t I? Let’s not bring up those unhappy memories, all right?”
No matter what came her way, Rosalie never failed to give Grandma a smile, not wishing to burden the old woman with her troubles.
To Rebecca, she was a bundle of sunshine. Over the years, Rebecca” felt thankful that she chose to adopt Rosalie.
Not only did she gain a wonderful granddaughter, but she even found an excellent wife for Theodore. Although that wasn’t her original intention, she realized over the years that Rosalie would certainly make a good wife.
It was a pity that Theodore was blind in the matters of love, just like his father, who didn’t know how to treasure what he had.
“All right, let’s not talk about it anymore.”
Rebecca patted the back of Rosalie’s hand kindly.
“Grandma.”
A voice came from the entrance, and Rebecca looked up to see Theodore walking in.
The moment he entered and saw Rosalie there, he stopped in his tracks and stared at her for a few whole seconds.
Rebecca saw the smile freeze on Theodore’s face.
“Why are you here?” Rebecca said unceremoniously to Theodore, clearly not welcoming him here.
Those who had no clue might even think that he was a random passer -by, and not her grandson.

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 !...
