Sydney pulled Rosalie into the car.
Rosalie was very silent as she sat in the shotgun seat. She even forgot to buckle her safety belt. Thankfully, Sydney enjoyed doing so for her and had done it before driving.
Sydney drove on for a few seconds in silence. She glanced at Rosalie a few times, worried. Finally, she couldn’t hold herself back and murmured, “I know I was wrong to bring you there. I didn’t expect Theo to…”
“Mom,” Rosalie cut her off. “This has nothing to do with you. You didn’t want this to happen, either. It’s alright, I’ve gotten used to it.”
The calmness on Rosalie’s face told Sydney that she had been hurt countless times.
Many times, people become numb not because they were born heartless, but because they had gone through so much. They knew they couldn’t change anything, and were helpless.
Sydney thought about it before concluding, “Don’t tell him about your pregnancy. I take back what I said before, because I suddenly feel like he doesn’t deserve to know.”
Rosalie’s heart throbbed with pain. “Mom, do you really think so?”
Sydney nodded. “He’s not fit to be a father. You’ll find a better man than him. Don’t worry about the child being fatherless.”
Rosalie chuckled weakly. “I’m fine with not finding another man. Things are fine the way they are now. I’ll take care of my own baby.”
More importantly, she didn’t want to get herself hurt again. She didn’t want her child to get hurt, too.
“That’s true,” Sydney said. “That depends entirely on what you want. Just don’t mistreat yourself. You’re still young and have all the time in the world. More importantly, you have something that many don’t.”
Rosalie nodded. “Yeah.”
She caressed her belly. “I have my baby. As long as he’s with me, I’m fearless.”
Sydney furrowed her brows. “I didn’t mean the baby. Who doesn’t have a baby? Even pigs have babies. It’s nothing to be proud of.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
