Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 357

After hearing Rosalie out, Sydney fell silent.

Her first thought was that Theodore was in trouble.

As it turned out, Rosalie stayed up the entire night reading through the documents to identify the problem with Regent Co. not for his sake at all. Quite the opposite—she did it for Sebastian.

Sydney suddenly laughed, the sound laced with helplessness and irony.

Theodore wasn’t the only one who misunderstood the situation. She did, too. She really thought that Rosalie did it for her son, but she never expected…

Rosalie clearly had her priorities in place, more so than Sydney did in her younger days. The girl might look weak and vulnerable, but she had a clear mind and knew exactly what she needed to do.

Meanwhile, Rosalie didn’t understand why Sydney was laughing. “Mom? What’s the matter?”

“Nothing,” Sydney said, looking at Rosalie. “So Geoffrey Carter threatened you with his son, and you accepted it because you care about his son very soon?”

“Seb’s a good friend of mine,” Rosalie explained. “I can’t sit idly by and watch that happen to him, so I’ll help wherever I can. But it’s fine if you’re not willing to do it. I’ll think of another way.”

“No need for that,” Sydney said. “Tell him that I’ll meet him.”

Joy filled Rosalie’s heart. “Really? Mom, you’re okay with seeing him?”

Sydney nodded. “Go ahead and tell him that.”

“But Mom,” Rosalie said, as the smile faded from her face, “I don’t want to force you to do this. If you’re very resistant to the idea, you don't need to meet him.”

“There’s nothing to be resistant to,” Sydney said calmly. “There’s no harm in getting to know a big shot, anyway.”

“Why did you reject me in the first place?”

Rosalie didn’t understand. Sydney had rejected her so firmly at the start, and she even sounded disgusted with the idea. Why did she suddenly change her mind and agree to it so readily?
