Sebastian had already made all the arrangements for going to Melrine tomorrow. They had agreed to leave tomorrow afternoon.
Before leaving, Rosalie wanted to visit her grandmother because she didn't know when she would return from Melrine. She planned to tell her grandmother everything and no longer wanted to keep secrets.
Rosalie and Sebastian had agreed that Sebastian would have dinner with his family in the evening, while Rosalie would have dinner with her grandmother. They each went about their own affairs.
In the evening, Rosalie drove to her grandmother's place. On the way, she received a call from an unknown number.
As soon as she answered, an anxious voice came through the phone. "Rose, is that you? It's your aunt."
Rosalie frowned. "How did you get my phone number?"
But as soon as she asked, Rosalie remembered that she had helped Laila with the hospitalization procedures and left her phone number. So, it wasn't surprising that Laila had her number.
"Rose, never mind that for now. Can you lend me some money?"
"I've already said that I won't lend you any money. You should repay the debt you owe yourself."
If she lent money to Laila now, it would be a bottomless pit.
"Rose, I'm begging you. I swear it's just this once!"
"I don't believe your oaths. People like you will never stop. You've already squandered my parents' compensation and extorted my grandmother. I won't give you a single penny. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."
"No!" Laila screamed. "Rose, I beg you. If you don't lend me money, I'm doomed! Can you lend me one million? I'll pay you back. Please, I'm begging you. Help me! For the sake of your parents, please, I'm begging you!"
Comments
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 !...
