By the time Rosalie got home, it was already half-past one.
She had promised to call Sebastian to let him know she was safe, but she didn't feel like talking, so she sent him a text message instead.
[Seb, I’m home now. Don’t worry.]
Sebastian replied, [Okay. I’m glad you’re home.]
Rosalie sat on the sofa and started browsing the rentals that were available in for Hullbeck, the city she had chosen to stay. She would leave the day after tomorrow.
Tonight, she would accompany Sydney to meet Theodore, and tomorrow, she would spend the day with her grandmother. The day after that, she would leave.
Rosalie quietly planned out what she would do once she got there. She would buy some books to read during her pregnancy. After she gave birth, she would pursue her graduate studies.
Although she was divorced, Rosalie still thought that she was quite lucky. At least she didn’t have to worry about money. She had shares in SK Enterprise and plenty of cash in her account.
She was a thrifty person. She never wasted food and water, didn’t like luxury goods, and never bought things she didn’t need. She had no idea how many lifetimes it would take to spend all her money.
Rosalie browsed through the rentals on her phone. She finally found a few promising options after a long search. Just as she was about to call to inquire, her phone rang.
Rosalie picked up the call. “Hello, Seb.”
“Rose, I’m outside your building. Can I come up?”
“Outside?” Rosalie quickly went to the window, pulled back the curtains, and opened the window. She saw a car parked nearby, and Sebastian was waving at her.
“Seb, why are you here?”
“You said you had something to tell me in person about my father, so I came to ask about it. Don’t worry, I won’t take up too much of your time. I’ll leave in ten minutes. Can I come up?”
Since Sebastian was already here, Rosalie couldn’t turn him away. Moreover, she was free now.
“Alright, come up. I’ll open the door for you.”
Shortly after Rosalie hung up, Sebastian arrived at her apartment. He looked a bit tired and worried. As soon as he walked in, he asked, “Are you sure you’re okay after meeting my father today?”
Rosalie sighed helplessly, and spun around once in front of Sebastian. “Look, I’m perfectly fine. No missing limbs. Do you want to count my hairs to see if any are missing?”
Hearing Rosalie joke, Sebastian relaxed. She really seemed alright.
“That’s good. You said you had something to tell me about my father. What is it?”
“Your father said you’re getting married. Is that true?”
Sebastian was taken aback. “I’m getting married? He told you that?”
Rosalie nodded. “He told me at lunch today. You didn’t know about this?”
Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
