“To…to look for my wife, of course,” Theodore replied confidently.
“Your wife?” Sydney sneered. “Who’s your wife?”
“Mom, you clearly don’t care about me, as I’ve said many times. You don’t even know who my wife is.” Theodore looked down, and added dejectedly, “You’ve never cared about me since I was a kid. I hardly saw you, and I had no idea where you went.”
Sydney had wanted to trap him with her words, but her eyes dimmed with guilt at his accusation.
She composed herself before saying, “Do you really hate me, then?”
“What about you?” Theodore looked up. “Do you really hate me, too? You think of Dad whenever you see me.”
Tears suddenly welled up in Sydney’s eyes.
“Alright, that’s quite enough. Remove your wet clothes and get changed into these dry ones.”
Sydney sat next to him and wiped his face and hair before reaching out to unbutton his shirt. Suddenly, Theodore grabbed her hands and shoved her away rudely.
“What are you doing?” Sydney exclaimed in shock.
“I’m married. Don’t touch me.”
Sydney rolled her eyes. “I know you’re married. Your wife is Rosalie Young.”
“Why did you touch me if you knew that? How shameless,” Theodore said as he buttoned his shirt up and looked at her in disdain.
Sydney sighed helplessly.
This drunkard had clearly forgotten that he was divorced. What was the point of acting like a devoted husband? His wife was no longer his wife anymore.
Theodore was so drunk, Sydney couldn’t bear to sober him up. Since he was already drunk, she would let him feel better about things. If being drunk allowed him to think that he’s still married, then so be it.
Sydney found the situation getting stranger and stranger by the minute.
“I’m your mother!” Sydney said exasperatedly. “Your biological mother! Your clothes are all wet, and I’m changing you out of them. Quit fooling around.”
“Mom?” Theodore suddenly drew close to her, and said with widened eyes, “Where did you go? How did you come back? I haven’t seen you in a long time.”
“You beat.” Sydney smacked the back of his head, but not too hard. “Yes, I’m back. I’m back to see my son. Can’t I?”
Theodore chuckled. “Seems like you still remember your son. You weren’t by my side even when I was sick. You clearly don’t care about me.”
Theodore was talking in circles.
“Theo, you’re so silly. Why did you get a divorce when it made you so unhappy? Rose is slowly recovering from it, but you’re falling deeper and deeper in it. You’re not walking in your father’s footsteps, you’re the enhanced version of him,” Sydney said.

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Why aren't u updating......
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 !...
