She knew Sebastian was bribing her. But since it was his credit card, she would succumb this time.
“Rose,” Yvonne said meekly, “why don’t you stay here and chat with Seb? I’ll take a stroll downstairs. I’ll come back for you in a while.”
“But I…”
“Rose,” Yvonne whispered into her ear, “he looks quite anxious, and is probably worried that you’re angry at him. Just stay and chat with him, all right?”
With that, Yvonne released Rosalie’s hand and grabbed Sebastian’s card before making a run for the door. She slammed the door shut, not giving Rosalie a chance to reject her.
“You…”
Rosalie was rendered speechless at the “bribe” that just took place under her nose.
Sebastian strode forward, and stopped right in front of her.
Left with no way out, Rosalie stood where she was and flashed him an awkward smile.
“Rose, I’m sorry you had to see what happened earlier. They committed a huge mistake at work, and I had to tell them off. It wasn’t without reason.”
He didn’t want Rosalie to think of him as a volatile and bad-tempered person. All the more he didn’t want her thinking of him as a bully, just because he was rich and powerful.
Rosalie nodded calmly. “I know.”
Still, she never imagined that Sebastian was capable of being so frightening, especially given his usual genteel and mild-mannered demeanor.
He was even more frightening than people who usually looked more scary than he did.
“But…” Rosalie paused.
“But what?” Sebastian asked anxiously. “Do you think I shouldn’t have been so fierce to them? How about this? I’ll call them back and apologize to them. Or is there something else you want me to do?”
He was beginning to ramble on in a bid to please her.

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 !...
