Chapter 56
At the hospital, Sebastian sat by Rosalie’s bedside, slicing an apple
for her.
“Mr. Carter, I’m really sorry for making you come all this way.”
“No need to apologize. I came of my own accord. Besides, why do you mind when I don’t?”
Rosalie smiled politely, but still felt guilty.
“I was a bit abrupt when I hung up on you. You’re not upset, are you?”
“Come on, if I were upset, would I be here?”
After slicing the apple into small pieces and putting them in a container, Sebastian speared one with a toothpick and handed it to,
Rosalie.
“Here, have some.”
Rosalie attempted to sit up. “I can do it myself…”
“Don’t move. Have you forgotten what you just experienced?” said Sebastian, in a tone that was slightly admonishing but still warm.
Rosalie grinned awkwardly. “Mr. Carter, you don’t have to be so nice to me. I’m not used to it.”
“You don’t have to be used to it. You’re a patient. It’s a chance for me to experience taking care of someone. So that when I have a wife in the future, I’ll know what to do.”
Rosalie was puzzled by his words, but she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong about his statement.
“Open up,” he urged..

Rosalie complied and opened her mouth, letting Sebastian feed her a small piece of apple.
“Mr. Carter, why did you call me earlier?”
Rosalie hadn’t asked at the time because she was in a rush to hang
“It’s nothing important. You mentioned treating me to a meal last time, so I wanted to ask when you’d be free.”
Rosalie had almost forgotten about that.
“Your injury hasn’t healed, has it?” she asked.
It hadn’t even been three days since they last met.
“It’s nothing serious. It’ll be fine as long as I don’t engage in strenuous activity. But in your current condition, you probably won’t be able to treat me to a meal anytime soon.”
“Sorry about that, Mr. Carter. Once I’ve recovered, I’ll definitely treat you to that meal. I promise I won’t forget.”
Sebastian smiled gently. “Alright, then. I’ll be waiting for you to get
better.”
“Mr. Carter, it’s late. Shouldn’t you head home and rest?” said Rosalie, feeling embarrassed by him staying and taking care of her.
“I’ll leave after you finish the apple,” Sebastian replied.
Rosalie nodded and obediently opened her mouth to be fed another
piece of apple.
Sebastian was a considerate man who had come all this way to check on her, and wasn’t even prying into her affairs. Being around him made Rosalie feel at ease. In fact, Theodore was the only one who left her feeling distressed. She felt more relaxed around others.

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 !...
