Chapter 77
Cynthia picked up a clean napkin from the table and wiped her face. Just the thought that Theodore loved her an was about to divorce Rosalie made her feel victorious. After all, Rosalie was just a
discarded wife.
Rosalie didn’t want to argue with Cynthia any longer. It was beneath her dignity to quarrel here, especially when others were already looking at them. She grabbed her purse and was about to stand up and leave, when suddenly, a hand landed on her shoulder.
“I’m here.”
Sydney appeared in front of the two other women. She gently pressed Rosalie back into her seat.
“I’m so sorry I’m late. You two must have felt awkward being alone together.”
Seeing that Cynthia’s face was damp, Sydney looked concerned. “Ms. Zeller, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, Aunt. Thank you for your concern. There was just a little misunderstanding between Rosalie and I. You don’t need to worry about it,” Cynthia replied.
Her demeanor was now completely different from before. She was the kind of person who could change her tune depending on who she
was with.
“Mom, I think I should leave first,” Rosalie said as she looked up at
her mother–in–law.
“Leave? Why?” Sydney sat down at their table and signaled to the waiter. “Since everyone’s here, let’s arder some food.”
The waiter handed them three menus
Not having much of an appetite, Rosalie wanted to get straight to the point. She had thought she would be having a simple me with her mother–in–law, and hadn’t expected Sydney to invite Cynthia as well.
“Mom, if you have something to say just say it
“I just wanted to have a meal with you two and chat There’s nothing major Can you do me this favor, considering I’m your mother in law?” Sydney said.
Giving Cynthia a cold glance, Rosalie tried not to let herself get angry. That woman wasn’t worth it. Having randomly picked a dish, Rosalie handed her menu to the waiter
After the three of them ordered their food, Sydney turned to Cynthia
“Ms. Zeller, I’m really sorry to have you come all this way, especially knowing you’re not feeling well.”
*No problem You wanted to see me, so of course I came. I’m happy to see you,” Cynthia replied politely.
“You’re indeed very polite, Sydney said.
Sydney was usually serious, but the smile currently on her face made her appear much friendlier. Rosalie found it strange that Sydney. seemed to like Cynthia quite a bit. Could Cynthia’s seemingly sweet demeanor have fooled Sydney too?
“That’s what I should do. You’re my elder, Aunt, but you really take care of yourself so well. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought you were Theo’s sister instead of his mother,” Cynthia complimented.

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 !...
