Xyla's gaze fell on Rosalie. Her half-smile made Rosalie feel uneasy.
However, Rosalie still offered a polite smile. This was her first time meeting Sebastian's mother. Xyla looked well-maintained; she was a beautiful woman with great poise. Sebastian's excellent appearance must be inherited from his parents.
"Very nice," Xyla said calmly. "When are you two getting married?"
As soon as the topic of marriage came up, Rosalie tensed up. She smiled, and said, "Seb and I are still discussing it. As for the wedding, we..."
"What's there to discuss?" Geoffrey interrupted her.
Rosalie was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "Marriage is a big deal. Of course, it needs to be properly discussed. And then..."
"Aren't you in love with each other?" Geoffrey interrupted her again. "Isn’t the reason you announced you’re together and came here in a hurry to explain the situation to us is so you can get married as soon as possible?"
Sebastian, worried his father might make things difficult for Rosalie, spoke up. "Dad. Rose means..."
"Let me finish speaking first." Geoffrey frowned. "Why are you so anxious?"
Sebastian wanted to rebuke Geoffrey, but Rosalie gently tugged on his sleeve, signaling him to stay silent.
"Mr. Carter, please go ahead," Rosalie said cautiously, afraid of exposing herself.
Geoffrey raised his head slightly. "Since you two have made things so clear to me, I think there's no need to waste any more time. You should get the marriage certificate first thing tomorrow morning and officially become a married couple."
"Dad, I think..." he said again.
"What now?" Geoffrey asked sternly. "Are you deceiving me? I’m just asking you to get married as soon as possible. Are you unwilling?"
"Mr. Carter." Rosalie stood up. "Rest assured, we’ll get the marriage certificate first thing tomorrow to prove we're not lying. We’re serious about each other."
Only then did a smile appear on Geoffrey's face, and he nodded. "That's more like it. You should be decisive about some things."
Perhaps she felt too pressured, Rosalie felt her stomach churning. She quickly turned to Sebastian. "I need to go to the restroom."
Sebastian noticed Rosalie's pale face. He quickly stood up, taking her hand. "I'll take you."

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 !...
