Theodore looked at her, unsure of what to say at that moment.
He had indeed wronged Cynthia. He had no right to argue back.
It was true that he had abandoned her at the wedding. Even if Cynthia cursed him, it would be entirely justified.
Seeing Theodore's cold demeanor, Cynthia felt both pain and anger. She would rather Theodore argue or even fight with her.
Instead, he treated her so indifferently, doing nothing at all, which only showed that his feelings for her were as dead as still water.
Or maybe, Theodore had never felt anything for her from the beginning, and it had all been her own delusion.
"And what about this woman?" Cynthia asked. "What are you going to do? You abandoned me, and now you're planning to be with this Aurora?"
"Cindy," Theodore interrupted her. "You'll find a better man. Don't waste your time and emotions on me anymore."
"It's easy for you to say! You just walk away, but what about me? Now I have to watch you with another woman. How can I accept that? We both fell, but you helped her up first. Theo, you're really shameless!"
Theodore felt a headache coming on. "Yes, sure, whatever you say."
"You…" Cynthia clenched her fists. "Fine. If that's the indifferent attitude you want to take, then there really is nothing left to say between us."
Cynthia wiped away her tears. "Go ahead and stay here with your Aurora. Theo, I hate you! I really hate you!"
With that, Cynthia ran off.
Theodore didn't chase after her, letting her leave. Everything was his own doing, so no matter how much Cynthia hated or blamed him, he would accept it.
He leaned wearily against the wall, exhaling a long breath.
"Rose, am I really that foolish? Why didn't I just die back then?"
About half an hour later, Aurora woke up. When she saw Theodore standing by the bed, a wave of joy filled her heart. He was still here.

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 !...
