Rosalie scoffed. “In that case, why did you come looking for me? Who are you trying to show care for? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll roll over in her grave?”
As always, Cynthia was always coming in between them.
Bitter pain billowed in Theodore’s eyes as he stared at the woman before him. He remained silent, but his eyes spoke of an intense mix of complicated emotions.
“Didn’t you make me choose?” Theodore pinched her chin, and went on, “I’m making myself clear now. I choose you. As for Cynthia, you don’t need to care about her. I’ll bear all the consequences, because everything's my fault!”
Rosalie shut her eyes in pain. “Theo, it’s too late. Making your choice now…it’s all too late!”
Sorrow spread from her heart to her head, and she couldn’t help but sob bitterly.
“Don’t cry.”
Seeing her bursting into tears made Theodore anxious. He hurriedly wiped her tears away, but they kept flowing.
“Why would it be too late? Are you still angry over what I said before? I didn’t mean them. Cindy’s on the verge of death. At that time, I had no other choice. Take it that I was a bastard and just hate me. It’s better than crying over me.”
“And now you have a choice? Why didn’t you not have a choice before? Now you can make the choice of picking me? Doesn’t that make me sad too?” Rosalie asked in between sobs. “Aren’t you just being fickle? Even if you chose me today, how would I know if you’d end up choosing Cindy tomorrow? Or some other woman altogether?”
His ever-changing stance scared her.
“I won’t! As long as you remarry me, I promise you, I’ll never do that again! As long as you give me a sliver of hope and make me believe that you love me, I won’t do it again!”
“You’re out of your mind! You really are!”
“When I requested for a divorce back then, I asked you if you saw me as a brother. I got so furious when you said yes. I was thinking, if you denied it and said that you love me, I would definitely have hugged you tight and apologized for even raising divorce.”
“Saying I’d divorce you was a sort of test. I was testing if you loved me or not. I was a fool to even test you like that! It caused us to really get divorced in the end.
“I thought you wanted to divorce me a long time ago. I thought you might be very happy after divorcing me. I feared you might think of yourself as a child bride of the Spencer family, and only married me to repay our kindness. You’ve always been considerate of others. You keep everything to yourself and short change yourself. That was why I presumptuously made that decision.
“I was wrong. After the divorce, I realized I couldn’t stand it. I could stand not having you around, I couldn’t stand seeing you with other men. How could other men have you? You’re my woman, and I’m going to make things right! Just take it that I’ve really gone mad!”
He had lost his mind, and was throwing caution to the wind. In fact, he was rambling incoherently.
But he knew one thing—he would bear all responsibility, even if it meant breaking his promise to Cynthia again!

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 !...
