Rosalie was still busy in the study. Sydney had given her a new notebook, which she had filled up.
She was halfway through the box of documents; she didn’t bother counting, and simply read the documents page by page.
Just then, her phone buzzed. Rosalie remained unperturbed, and continued jotting down notes until her phone buzzed again.
She furrowed her brows, and grabbed her phone. Glancing at the incoming text, she saw found it was from Theodore.
The first text read, ‘Are you asleep?’
The second text read, ‘??’
Rosalie typed on her phone, ‘I’m not asleep yet.’
But before she sent it out, something came to mind.
If she told him that she wasn’t asleep yet, he was bound to ask her what she was doing. It was going to take her time to reply to him.
She didn’t want to chat with Theodore right now. She was long past the time when she felt excited whenever he contacted her.
Time was of the essence, and she had to read through all the documents.
As such, she deleted her original message and typed, ‘I’m very tired, so I’m going to bed. Goodnight.’
After replying to Theodore, she switched her phone to silent mode, put it aside, and went back to work.
On the other end, Theodore stared at his phone screen in a daze.
‘Didn’t Mom say that Rose was busy? Why did Rose say she was going to bed?’ he thought.
Theodore texted Sydney again. ‘Mom, is Rose asleep or not?’
Yet, he received no response from Sydney.
From his conversation with her, it seemed as though Rose was staying the night at her place. They were both probably asleep right now.
Theodore wanted to call Rosalie, but thought that he might interrupt her rest.

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 !...
