Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 399

Sebastian's face stiffened, and he shifted his gaze away.

"I don't."

He didn’t dare to admit it, because he was afraid it would implicate Rosalie. When he was in elementary school, he was very close to a girl. Both of them had been children, and they innocently expressed their liking for each other.

However, his father found out about it. Soon, the girl was sent away, and he never saw her again.

His father didn’t allow him to like anyone. Everything had to be arranged by him. From that moment, Sebastian never dared to admit to his father that he liked someone. He was afraid his father would act again.

"No? If that's the case, then you don't need to marry Rosalie. Since you don't like her, there's no need for me to match you two up. I don’t want to force you. You can go now."

Geoffrey seemed impatient as he brushed past Sebastian.

The more Sebastian thought about it, the more something felt off. He followed Geoffrey. "What exactly do you mean? This has nothing to do with Rose. It's all my decision. She doesn't like me at all."

He was worried Geoffrey was trying to trap him.

Geoffrey stopped in his tracks. "So, you like her?"

"Dad, she's Theodore’s ex-wife. She's not someone you can just send away. You better not touch her, or else the Spencers..."

"Sebastian, do you really think I'm so cruel? Do you think I’m going to send her abroad and hide her, so you'll never see her again?" Geoffrey said helplessly.

Sebastian clenched his fists. "Didn't you do that before?"

"You're still holding a grudge against me for that? Don’t worry, that girl is doing well. I made sure she received a good education and is now living a good life. She should thank me. The price was just staying away from you. No big deal. If you had insisted on keeping her by your side, her fate might not have been as good."

This incident had happened a long, long time ago. It had almost been twenty years. Now, hearing his father mention it again, Sebastian actually thought it might have been for the best. He was convinced his father was telling the truth. His father was cruel, but rarely lied.

"Dad, I don’t want to dwell on the past. I just want to tell you not to repeat your mistakes. I'm not a child anymore."

Geoffrey stared at him without saying anything. Instead, he took out his phone, dialed a number, and put it on speaker.

On the other end of the phone, a gentle voice could be heard. "Hello?"

"Rosalie, it's me."

"Mr. Carter, what can I do for you?"

Sebastian was surprised that Geoffrey had called Rosalie. He was about to say something when Geoffrey gestured for him to stay quiet, and then said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to ask if you told Sebastian about the marriage."
