Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 523

“I'm the scumbag, but every time I see you with Sebastian, I feel like you shouldn’t be so close to him. Since you both are just friends, why should you be so intimate with each other? I ignored what I had done, and all the painful situations I put you in. At that time, Sebastian brought you so much hope.”

“Ordinary friends and best friends are different. If you must compare the two and then use the standards for ordinary friends to criticize all cross-gender friendships, that’s superficial. It just means that one doesn’t understand how complex emotions can get. Such a person is doomed to never have true friends, and even if they do, they will lose them.”

“I shouldn’t have measured your friendship with Sebastian using the standards of ordinary friends. I was viewing your relationship from my narrow perspective, so I became extreme and harsh. I hurt you repeatedly, questioned you, and belittled you.”

“Foolish and superficial people see everything in black and white, but there are gray areas. Sebastian was willing to fight me to the death for you, so when he encounters difficulties, you also stand by him without hesitation.”

“If someone’s willing to fight others for you, always stand by your side, protect you, and care for you, and if you abandon them in their time of need because you think it's none of your business, then such a person doesn’t deserve to have someone treat them well.”

“But… You deserve it, Rose. You deserve all the goodness in the world. When I was good to you, you were sincere with me because I gave my all. Now, it’s Sebastian’s turn. I repeatedly questioned and hurt you. I pushed you to Sebastian myself, causing you and him to go from mere acquaintances to close friends, then good friends, best friends, and finally to a married couple. If I had firmly believed in you from the beginning, if I had been willing to stay by your side even once, you and Sebastian wouldn’t have come to this point.”

As Theodore spoke, he laughed, but his laughter soon turned into tears. He gripped the steering wheel, resting his forehead on it. His whole body trembled, and veins bulged on his hands.
