Chapter 249
Wesley withdrew his hand awkwardly. Seeing Rosalie nearby, he gave her a resigned smile and stepped away from Sydney.
Rosalie approached them. “Hello, Mr. Spencer, Mrs. Spencer.”
Sydney frowned, setting down her teacup. “Why are you calling us that? It’s only been a few days, and you don’t recognize us anymore?”
Rosalie forced herself to smile. “Theo and I are divorced now, so…”
At the mention of their divorce, Wesley and Sydney exchanged glances. They didn’t seem particularly surprised, as if they already knew.
“I heard about it from Mom,” Sydney said calmly. “But even after the divorce, you still call her ‘Grandma. Why don’t you call us Mom and Dad anymore? Are you playing favorites?”
“Huh? I…” Rosalie was taken aback. Sydney seemed upset, and Rosalie hurried to explain, “I didn’t mean to, I just…”
She had never heard this perspective before. Usually, people talked about parents or in–laws playing favorites, not the daughter–in–law.
“That’s enough, Sydney. Don’t scare her,” Wesley said. Seeing
Rosalie’s flustered expression, he explained, “She’s not scolding you, she’s just-”
“But I am scolding her,” Sydney retorted, looking displeased. “Since when do you get to twist my words? Did you get my permission to do so?”
Wesley froze, a flash of embarrassment crossing his eyes. Sydney showed him no mercy.

Despite the blow to his male pride, he silently endured it. He accepted this bitter reality, feeling it was his due.
Rosalie stood there awkwardly. Wesley, after all, was Theodore’s
father, the chairman of SK Enterprise, and a man of high status. Yet, in front of his wife, he appeared so humble.
It was a real–life example of “hurting your wife for a moment of pleasure, but the chase becomes a lifelong struggle.” Wesley had been trying to win Sydney back for years without success.
To ease the awkward tension, Rosalie smiled and said, “I’m sorry, it was my fault. You both will always be my family. Even though Theo. and I are divorced, you’ll still be like parents to me.”
Comments
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 !...
