Chapter 47
Anyway, the Spencer family was well aware of the situation between the couple, so there was no need to worry about upsetting anyone. Sydney didn’t want to make things difficult for herself either.
Wesley awkwardly pursed his lips and remained silent, not showing any discontent, as if he had already gotten used to it.
Rebecca’s smile froze, but she simply sighed without commenting on it, instead turning to the butler and asking him to serve the dishes. The butler nodded in response, and the servants began to bring out
dish after dish.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was subtly awkward, and it wasn’t just between Theodore and Rosalie. There was also a strange tension between Wesley and Sydney. Everyone else noticed it, but Rosalie, unfortunately, was oblivious to everything.
It was quiet, unlike a lively family gathering, as if everyone had their own thoughts.
Rebecca turned to her beloved granddaughter–in–law, the only one in the Spencer family who seemed relatively normal.
“Rose, does the food suit your taste?”
Rosalie nodded and smiled brightly. “Grandma, it’s delicious.”
The dishes weren’t too greasy, instead they were light and more. suitable for Rosalie’s current preferences. If they had been a bit oily, she might have felt nauseous.
“Eat more. Look at you, you’re so thin. You should take care of your health and have a baby soon,” Rebecca advised.

choked when she heard the old lady’s words. She coughed
continuously and wasn’t able to stop for a while. Looking worried, Theodore quickly wiped her mouth with a napkin. He also raised his hand to gently pat her on the back, seeming as if he did it almost instinctively.
Rebecca smiled knowingly. “Theo will be a good dad. Rose, you can rest assured and let Theo take care of the children in the future.”
Rosalie smiled stiffly. “Grandma, I…
She didn’t know what to say.
She was already pregnant, but she couldn’t tell anyone. She and Theodore were getting a divorce, so bringing up such a matter now would only make things more complicated. But not saying anything made her feel guilty towards Rebecca.
Theodore put down his napkin and said, “Grandma, we’re still young. There’s no rush.”
“You’re young, but I’m old.” Rebecca sighed. “Although you two usually say nice things to me, I know my own health. I don’t event know if I’ll live long enough to see you have children.”
Rebecca’s voice sounded particularly desolate, and her aged face was full of sorrow, like a lost child. It is said that as people grow older, they become more like children, and Rebecca was no exception.
The room once again fell silent. Wesley cast a cold glance at Theodore, sending him a warning look mixed with a hint of blame.
“Grandma, these things take time,” Rosalie said with a smile. “And I’ll always be here with you. Aren’t I better than a child? Babies just cry all the time. You might find it annoying.”

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 !...
