Chapter 7
In the evening, Rosalie went to a restaurant alone and ordered a meal, forcing herself to eat something for the sake of her unborn child. Her plan was to return to her room after dinner and concoct a story to tell Rebecca the next day, to reassure the old woman that she and
Theodore had spent a wonderful night together.
Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure not far away, walking out of the
restaurant.
Cynthia?
Accompanying her were a man and a woman. The three of them chatted, shook hands, and walked out together.
But where was Theodore?
“Miss, sorry to disturb you. Are you alone?” a waiter asked.
Rosalie snapped out of her thoughts. “Yeah. Do you need something?”
“There’s a gentleman who wants to dine here, but there’s a queue of waiting guests and limited seating. So, may I ask if you would be willing to share your table with him? If not, it’s okay.”
Rosalie turned her head and saw a well–dressed man not far away. He looked quite handsome and elegant.
“It’s fine,” Rosalie replied. She was about to finish her meal anyway.
“Alright. Thank you, miss.”
Soon after the waiter spoke to the man, Sebastian Carter, he walked over to Rosalie’s side with a smile on his face.
“Sorry about this, miss. I didn’t make a reservation, so there’s no available seating. But I really wanted to try this restaurant’s

specialties.”
“It’s difficult to get a reservation at this restaurant. There was a cancellation today, so I was lucky. Please, have a seat,” Rosalie replied politely.
As Sebastian calmly sat opposite Rosalie, he noted that she was. wearing a blue dress, with her black hair tied up and wisps of curls hanging down on both sides of her cheeks. She looked quite
charming and lively. Though she was smiling, her expression somehow seemed sorrowful.
“Is there something on my face?” asked Rosalie, feeling a bit uneasy at Sebastian’s scrutiny.
“I’m sorry. I just thought you seemed a bit sad.”
“I’m not.”
Her heart was already broken. There was no room left for sadness.
“Sorry, I must have assumed too much,” Sebastian replied, after which he dropped the matter.
Not far away, a sports car was parked outside the restaurant. A man emerged from a nearby pharmacy and approached the vehicle. He opened the door and was about to get in, but suddenly noticed at familiar figure sitting by the restaurant’s glass window.
Wasn’t that Theodore’s wife? Who was the man opposite her? What the hell?
Caleb Finch immediately took out his phone and recorded a fifteen- second video, then quickly sent it to Theodore, accompanied by a text
message.
[Bro, take a look at this! Is your wife cheating on you? She got all

dolled up and is out on a date with a handsome guy in the middle of the night! Don’t worry, man. I’ve got your back! I’ll straighten this out for you!]

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
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 !...
