What’s more, she had stayed up the entire night and kept him in the dark about it. It was natural that she was hot-tempered and flared up at him.
As for why she didn’t tell him about it, he reasoned that it must be because they were divorced and she was keeping her distance, but couldn’t stop herself from caring for him.
Theodore drew the link in his own mind.
Sydney noticed the tender look in Theodore’s eyes. “Seems like your ex-wife still treats you very well, and is so considerate toward you.”
The mention of his ‘ex-wife’ made Theodore’s eyes go dim. He felt slightly uncomfortable, and stood up.
“Whatever it is, you should have advised her not to stay up the entire night. Her body is still in such a weak condition. What if something bad happened?”
“I told her to sleep early, but she refused to listen. She’s not a child. Could I have forced her to go to sleep? Even if it’s not for herself, I thought she would go to bed early for the b…”
Sydney’s mind buzzed as she froze.
‘Oh no,’ she thought. She almost let the cat out of the bag!
Theodore’s eyes narrowed, and he looked suspiciously at Sydney. “For the what?”
Sydney forced a smile, and said, “Even if it’s not for herself, I thought she’d go to bed early to prevent Grandma from worrying about her.”
Sydney’s tone was stiff, but her words made sense as she tried to make up an excuse. She had wanted to say that it was for the baby in her womb.
In fact, Sydney was very curious as to how Theodore would respond upon finding out about Rosalie’s pregnancy.
However, she promised Rosalie that she wouldn’t expose her secret. She couldn’t tell Theodore about it without her permission. If she messed things up and make the situation even more of a tragedy than it already was, it would be terrible.
Theodore still looked suspicious. He could sense that Sydney was making up an excuse to hide what she originally wanted to say.
But from how she looked, he couldn’t tell what it was.
He was about to ask further, when Sydney said, “Rose treats you so well, but you don’t treasure her and insist on marrying Cynthia. Will that woman sacrifice her beauty sleep to do something like this for you?”
Theodore’s brows furrowed. “Don’t talk about her. She’s so ill right now, so don’t talk bad about her behind her back.”

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 !...
