Rosalie stayed by Sebastian’s side for a long time, refusing to leave. Christopher glanced at his watch, and threw a glance at Yvonne.
When the two of them left the ward, Yvonne asked, “Uncle, what’s the matter?”
“Take Rosalie back home for some rest. I’ll have someone watch over Seb,” Christopher said.
“I’m afraid Rose wouldn’t want to go back,” Yvonne said.
“Try to persuade her. Staying the night here wouldn’t help things, and would only serve to tire herself out. Make her have a good rest and come again tomorrow.”
Yvonne looked doubtfully at Christopher. “Why do I sense so much concern from you for Rose? The way you look at her is weird.”
Yvonne was usually rather blithe, but she had her thoughtful moments. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have seen through her brother’s feelings for Rosalie right from the start.
When she saw Christopher fall silent, she pressed, “What’s the matter? Are you upset with Rose? Do you think that since she’s a divorcee, she’s not fit for Seb? I guarantee you, Rose is a great woman, and…”
“Vonnie,” Christopher cut her off. “I didn’t mean that. It’s not my place to comment on your brother’s marriage, since your parents have no comments. That’s especially so for your father. I know what he’s like. Since he is happy with Rose, that proves that she isn’t a bad choice.”
Yvonne heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”
“Can I ask you for a favor?” Christopher asked.
His serious expression filled Yvonne’s heart with doubt. “What do you need help with?”
“Take Rosalie back, and see if she has a red mole in the middle of her back.”
Yvonne’s heart leapt. “Why are you asking that?”
Her uncle’s request shocked her very much.
“Well…” Christopher glanced in the direction of the ward, and said with a slight smile, “Are you willing to help me? I don’t mean any ill-will, I swear.”
“I don’t understand. Isn’t this your first time meeting Rose? Why do you want to know whether there’s a red mole on her back?”
Christopher sighed. “I can tell you why, but can you promise me not to tell anyone about it, and that it’ll be a secret between both of us?”
Since he needed a favor from Yvonne, he had to tell her the truth.
Comments
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 !...
