He turned around, his face frighteningly pale. “If you still don’t love Mom, you wouldn’t even be here right now! You wouldn’t care about the child she gave birth to, either.”
“Theo, you’re my son! I care about you, no matter what.”
“Then why were you always not around when I was young? Why were you always with other women when I needed you most?”
Wesley was at a loss for words.
Theodore sneered. “You’re here not because you’re a good father. You’re at best a bastard who suddenly had his conscience pricked and wants to go back to your family.”
Wesley clenched his fists. “Did your mom say something to you?”
“No, she didn’t say anything. She doesn’t even talk to me about you.”
His words were blades piercing through Wesley’s chest.
Theodore’s words were cold and cruel, but they exposed the truth that Sydney never talked about his father to him.
Her hatred toward Wesley had faded to cold indifference.
Although they still met and interacted with each other, a huge chasm laid between them.
Wesley would rather Sydney spoke bad about him to Theodore. At the very least, that would prove that he mattered to her, even if she hated him.
“Your mom still can’t forgive me, but I’ll try very hard. Can’t you help me out? We’re family. Isn’t it good for a family to be together? Theo, I’ll make it up to you.”
“No, I won’t help you. I don’t need you to make it up to me. Mom will never forgive you, and you don’t deserve to be forgiven anyway. You did wrong, and she’ll never forgive you. One day, she’ll find a better man and abandon you. You’ll be in misery, and regret everything you did.”
Theodore’s cold, unfeeling words sent waves of pain crashing in Wesley’s heart.
Yet, these words were a precise description of what happened to Theodore himself.
He ended up walking down his father’s path. He knew it was wrong, but he committed the same mistakes anyway.
At that point in time, both of them didn’t think what they did was wrong. It was as if they were blinded to think that they were right in what they did—they refused to listen to anyone, stubbornly and arrogantly insisting on their own ways.

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 !...
