For Rosalie’s sake, he couldn’t start fighting Sebastian. It would only hurt her badly.
“That’s right,” Theodore said indifferently.
He said nothing further beyond that.
Sebastian had thought that Theodore would clap back with a retort, and didn’t expect him to agree with his words.
Although he didn’t remember much about Theodore, he had a very strong negative feeling about him. He felt that Theodore wasn’t one to agree so readily to what others say, especially his rival in love.
Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Theodore not pick a fight with Sebastian.
At the very least, Theodore backed down.
Cynthia furrowed her brows. “Theo, what’s going on?”
Sebastian was clearly provoking Theodore. Why was he not getting angry at all? He even agreed to Sebastian’s words. Was he mad? Was he holding himself back for Rosalie’s sake?
Cynthia was fuming.
Rosalie didn’t enjoy this meal one bit. She didn’t expect to bump into them here, and least of all, that she would have lunch with Theodore and Cynthia.
The four of them didn’t talk much after that.
After lunch, Theodore asked, “Where are you two planning to go after lunch?”
“We’ll be walking around,” Rosalie said.
“Let’s go together, the four of us…”
“No,” Rosalie cut him off. “I don’t like double dates.”
Having lunch together was the greatest compromise she could make. She couldn’t possibly spend the entire afternoon staring at Theodore!
Sebastian grabbed Rosalie’s hand, and said, “Yes, Rose and I want some alone time in the afternoon.”
Theodore scoffed. “What, worried that I’ll snatch her away?”
Theodore furrowed his brows; he was about to say something, when Rosalie said, “Let Sebastian take this. It’ll be our treat this time.”
“That’s not too good,” Cynthia said. “Theo booked the entire restaurant. It won’t be cheap.”
“Do you think I can’t afford it?” Sebastian looked coldly at Cynthia. She looked like a nasty person right from the get-go, and she disgusted him.
Cynthia smiled. “Why would I think so? I just think there’s no need for you to go to such an expense, when it’s just peanuts for Theo.”
Lily sensed something wrong with Cynthia’s words. ‘Why does this lady sound as though she thinks that Mr. Carter is very poor?’
Sebastian was the CEO of Skycrest Enterprise. If he were poor, there wouldn’t be rich people in this world.
Sebastian ignored Cynthia, and said to Lily, “Take it.”
“Okay, Mr. Carter,” Lily said as she took the card.
She addressed him very courteously, as if trying to remind someone of something.

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Why aren't u updating......
Unrealistic. What a comedy. If Sebastian and Rosalie are cousins, their families must have already prevented them to be together abroad. Isn't it bizarre that nobody is doing something to let them know of their family relationship? And pls stop putting Aurora in a high pedestal. Your readers want Rosalie to be genuinely happy,free of stupid misunderstanding. Thank you....
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 !...
