Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 771

Sebastian found Sydney's apology unsettling.

Was she scheming against him? What was she really up to?

It felt surreal, like she had completely changed overnight. Just yesterday, she had been aggressive and threatening, but now she wore an expression of deep remorse.

He couldn't shake off the suspicion that she had some ulterior motive.

Maybe she had a hidden agenda. Sebastian couldn't bring himself to trust her appearance of repentance.

"I know you hate me,” he said bluntly. "You don't need to put on a show in front of me. I don't care if you dislike me. As long as Rose cares about me, that's all that matters.”

Sydney's demeanor was grating, and Sebastian felt a strange, uncomfortable unease. He even felt sorry for her. He would rather she continued to be hostile.

For all he knew, her current behavior could be an act.

"Indeed,” Sydney replied with a faint smile. "Rose does care about you, and you two are no longer just friends.”

"I'm her husband,” Sebastian said firmly. "How can friends compare to that? No matter how much you dislike me, I'm married to Rose. I don't understand why you're saying these things today, telling Rose not to meet Theodore again. You must have an agenda.”

"I have no hidden agenda,” Sydney explained earnestly. "I genuinely hope she won't meet Theo again. They've had too many complications between them, and I've seen it all. Theo has hurt her deeply. Given how things are now, it would be better if they didn't see each other.”

Seeing Sydney's sincere expression, Sebastian remained skeptical. "Is that so? You mentioned yesterday that Theodore wasn't in the hospital room. Where is he, then?”
