Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35 

Rosalie felt like her heart was being torn apart, and her mind was on the verge of splitting open. 

Cynthia even knew about these things. It seemed that Theodore had been telling Cynthia everything about his married life over the past year. They had been in contact all along. 

“Theo once went on a two–month business trip, right? He was with me, 

Cynthia volunteered the information. “He was with me the whole time, traveling together. He was happiest when he was with me.” 

It felt like one thunderbolt after another was striking Rosalie’s brain. She was in a daze, hoping desperately that this was just a nightmare and that she would wake up soon. 

Rosalie remembered the night when Theodore had come home in a hurry, wanting to be intimate with her. They hadn’t seen each other for two months, and she was deeply in love with him, so she hadn’t pushed him away. 

The whole process had gone smoothly. He had been gentle and considerate of her feelings. But the following day, he asked for a divorce. 

Had he planned all of this? Since he wanted a divorce and had been with Cynthia for those two months, why had he come back that night and touched her? Had he just been squeezing out Rosalie’s last bit of value? 

Rosalie clenched her fists tightly, her nails almost digging into her palms. Only the sharp pain was keeping her from spiraling. She took a deep breath to calm herself, refusing to let herself panic or lose her composure because of this woman’s words.

“Why are you telling me all this? Theodore is going to divorce me anyway. Are you trying to provoke me? Do you think I care?” 

Rosalie’s heart felt like it had been shattered into pieces, but she didn’t want to show any signs of weakness. This was her last remaining shred of dignity. 

“Provoke you?” Cynthia innocently shook her head. “No, you must have misunderstood me. I didn’t mean it that way. I’m just concerned about you and trying to help.” 

Hearing these words from Cynthia made Rosalie feel nauseous. She was disgusted by the mere thought of it. 

“What do you mean by ‘looking out for me‘, Ms. Zeller? How dare you say that?” 

Cynthia let out a sigh before speaking earnestly, “I want you to know that I have your best interests at heart. Theo is a remarkable man, and I’m certain you would find him attractive. 

“However, it’s important to understand that he has strong feelings for me. I don’t want you to hold on to unrealistic fantasies. I’m telling you this not to upset you, but to help you see the reality of the situation.” 

Rosalie felt extremely repulsed by Cynthia’s hypocritical stance, but to some extent, what she said was not entirely wrong. 

Unrealistic fantasies? Yes, they were indeed that. All the goodness Rosalie once saw in Theodore was fake. 

She used to think he was a responsible person, but now it seemed that everything he had done was for Cynthia. All his words and actions had been part of a plan, including his kindness towards her. Only when he was good to his ‘wife‘ could Cynthia be safe.
