Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 543

"You can't even handle a little scare. If someone actually tried to kill you, you'd probably pee your pants!"

Yerick was curious to see how Chloe would react if faced with a real threat. The fear of death on this woman's face would surely be fascinating to observe.

“You're so morbid, talking about killing and stuff. Even though you're my employer, I'm going to stop taking care of you if you keep scaring me. You'll have to find someone else,” Chloe said, genuinely upset.

“Alright, I'll stop teasing you. After all, you're older than me. I should show you some respect.”

Chloe rolled her eyes. “Respect? I'm only twenty-two, just four years older than you. I'm not that old!”

Yerick's brows furrowed instantly, his gaze turning cold and distant.

Chloe felt a chill from his grim look. Though he hadn't said a word, the eerie atmosphere seemed to suffocate her.

“You're so timid,” Yerick said, pointing at her. “And you have the nerve to emphasize you're older than me?”

Chloe pouted. “I'm not timid. I just…”

She found herself at a loss for words. After a moment's hesitation, she finally said, “If you don't want to admit I'm older, then fine.”

Honestly, though, she was curious to hear Yerick call out her name in respect. There was something sweet and charming about the way he addressed Rosalie, even though he wore a different face in private.

She couldn't shake the feeling that he might have a bit of a... yandere side.

Rosalie was heading towards Sebastian's hospital room when Theodore approached her in the hallway.

She came to a halt.

Rosalie had never understood why Theodore left her for Cynthia—was it really love?

If he loved Cynthia so much, why did he show such care and affection to another woman?

Their memories were devoid of arguments and doubts. He had been attentive and caring, and she had thought him a responsible person. Even if he didn't love her, he still treated her well as his wife.

When he brought up divorce, however, he didn’t hesitate and was completely indifferent.

It was only later that Theodore told her he had always loved her. That was when she realized their marriage had been harmonious; not because of an illusion, but because they genuinely loved each other. Unfortunately, neither had expressed this openly. Both doubted the other.

Perhaps their love wasn't pure enough. Otherwise, why would there have been any doubts?

“What's wrong?” Theodore asked, noticing Rosalie lost in thought.
