Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 766

Sydney made her way directly to Rosalie's hospital room. As she walked down the hall, her phone rang inside her purse.

She quickly pulled it out and checked the screen. Her expression darkened, and she answered immediately. "Theo, where have you been?"

"Mom, I'm okay. Stop trying to find me."

"Where are you? Do you know how scared I was when I saw you weren't at the hospital?"

"That's why I'm calling, to let you know I'm alright." Theodore's voice sounded detached. "Mom, I need to be alone for a while. I'll come back in a few days."

"Are you sure you're safe?" Sydney asked, her voice filled with worry.

"I'm fine. I won't let anything happen to me."

Sydney exhaled deeply. "Okay, I'll give you some space to think things over. Take as long as you need, but promise me you'll stay safe and won't do anything rash."

A heavy feeling sat in Sydney's chest, a mother's instinct warning her that Theodore might be desperate.

"I'm not going to do anything stupid. I've already come to terms with it. I'm hanging up now."

With that, Theodore ended the call.

Sydney felt a wave of relief wash over her. She had been terrified that Theodore might have been considering something drastic. Hearing his voice reassured her that he wasn't in any immediate danger. He just needed to calm down for a few days, and wouldn't do anything rash.

He wouldn't have called if he had plans to do something reckless. He just needed time to clear his head.

Sydney wondered what had been weighing so heavily on him, and how he could ever win over the woman he cared about with that mindset.
