She had rebuked and hit him, although he had no idea she was his mother. She didn't even dare tell him the truth.
"Mr. Carter, regarding what happened yesterday and my previous behavior toward you, I sincerely apologize. I hope you won't hold it against me."
Sebastian couldn't shake the suspicion that his father had somehow pressured her into this display of contrition. Despite her earnest demeanor, he found it hard to trust her motives.
“I don't care what's going on in your head," he said coldly. “For Rose's sake, I'll let it go. But you should leave now."
With that, Sebastian turned on his heel and walked away.
He might have chosen to overlook Sydney's behavior for Rosalie's sake, but internally, he remained troubled. No matter how many apologies she offered, the damage had been done. Could a simple apology truly make up for everything?
He felt that the Spencers were utterly shameless, thinking that apologizing could erase all their wrongs. Theodore had been like this, and now Sydney was too. It was almost laughable.
As Sebastian's figure receded, Sydney's heart turned heavy with a profound, unspoken sorrow. Tears welled in her eyes as she reflected on the years lost and the love and support she failed to give him. Her guilt and regret were overwhelming.
Even though Geoffrey was responsible for so much of this turmoil, as a mother, she couldn't escape the weight of her own mistakes. She deeply regretted the harsh words she had once used with Sebastian. The thought of him harboring such hatred for her was unbearable. If he found out she was his real mother, he would be even more tormented.
Her gaze was weary and helpless, as if she faced an insurmountable obstacle.
What should she do?
Back in the hospital room, Rosalie quickly asked, “Seb, what happened with my mom?”
Sebastian bristled at the way Rosalie continued to call Sydney “Mom." To him, she was Theodore's mother, not Rosalie's. She was merely his ex-mother-in-law, and he couldn't understand why Rosalie clung to this designation as if she couldn't let go of the Spencers.
Comments
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 !...
