As Cynthia cried, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, and she struggled to breathe. She clutched her heart, gasping for air.
Theodore immediately kneeled beside her, and helped her up from the floor before guiding her back to the bed. He quickly pressed the emergency button.
Medical staff rushed in to check on Cynthia. The doctor informed Theodore that Cynthia had recently undergone a heart transplant, and was still recovering. She needed to get plenty of rest and avoid emotional stress, as it could put a significant strain on her new heart.
Once the medical team left, Cynthia lay on the bed in her white wedding dress. Theodore walked over to her.
He didn’t take her hand, but said with a resigned tone, “Cindy, why are you doing this to yourself? I’m just a man who’s always breaking his promises. You shouldn’t waste your time on me. There are many other men in this world who deserve your love. You will meet someone better.”
“That’s easy for you to say,” Cynthia sneered. “And what about you? Why did you fall in love with Rosalie? Why don’t you love me or someone else?”
Theodore remained silent for a long time, not responding.
“Theo, you can’t be this cruel,” Cynthia said as she cried. “Do you know how happy I was when I put on this wedding dress? I gave you all my dignity and showed you my heart, but now you’re humiliating me. And this dress—it was a gift from you.”
Theodore sighed softly. “At the time, you were very ill, and it was hard to find a suitable heart, so…”
“So you made a promise to marry me, and now, you’re backing out after I got my transplant. If that’s the case, I’d rather not have this heart!”
“Cindy,” Theodore said, frowning, “isn’t it better this way? You’re alive, safe and sound, and living like a normal person.”

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 !...
