Chapter 82
“If it weren’t for you, Theo would have married Rose a long time ago. What chance would you have had then? Rose has known Theo for so. many years. How long have you known him? If we have to talk about who came first, how do you know Theo liked you first?” Sydney retorted bluntly.
“Mom.” Rosalie grabbed Sydney’s arm. “Stop it. She’s not feeling well. Theo won’t be happy if you make her pass out from anger.”
Rosalie had only spoken out of consideration for Sydney. It wouldn’t be worth it if the relationship between mother and son soured because of Cynthia. It was clear that Theodore and Cynthia were in love. Who Theodore liked first wasn’t important anymore. What mattered was who he loved now, and who he was willing to get a divorce for.
Cynthia was indeed getting dizzy from anger. She covered her chest as she gasped for air.
“If Theo loves her, why would he be with me? Aunt, he’s your son. No one in the Spencer family cares about him. No one supports his love. They all forced him to marry someone he doesn’t like. He’s the only child of the Spencer family! How can you bear to treat him like this?! Do you know how painful it is for Theo to not be with me every day?”
“I don’t know how painful it is for him, but what I’m sure of is that Theo was doing just fine before you appeared. Why did everything become so complicated after you showed up?” said Sydney.
Unable to bear it anymore and unafraid to speak her mind, Cynthia ranted, “Why are you all targeting me? What did I do wrong? How am I worse than Rosalie?
“Just because Rosalie’s parents are heroes? So what? What does it
have to do with Rosalie? It’s not her doing. Marriage is about
compatibility, right? Although the Zeller family may not be as good as the Spencer family, they’re still thousands of times better than
Rosalie. Why are you all so biased?!”
Rosalie was about to speak up, but Sydney gently patted her hand, signaling for her to stay quiet.
Instead, it was Sydney who spoke, “You make a good point, Ms. Zeller. Why does the whole Spencer family dislike you? If just one person dislikes you, it might be because the two people don’t get. along. But if everyone dislikes you, you should consider whether it’s you who’s the problem.
“Theo is still young and may have misjudged you, but his Grandma, -his dad, and I have lived for many years and seen all sorts of things. With the kind of person you are, you should be grateful that you were even allowed into our family’s life to begin with!
“Don’t think I don’t know why you’re with Theo. I’m telling you now, if Theodore marries you, I’ll kick him out with nothing. He won’t have a penny, and you’ll have to take care of him!”
By the end of her little speech, Sydney’s expression had become extremely serious and was even filled with disgust.
Rosalie was startled by her mother–in–law’s sudden change. Sydney now seemed full of hatred for Cynthia and seemed to despise her deeply, which was completely opposite to her previous demeanor.
“You… you…” Cynthia clutched her chest. “You’re all going too far. You’re ganging up on me. Why do you have to be like this?”
“There’s no reason for it. You can simply consider it as me bullying. you.” Sydney picked up the divorce papers and turned to Rosalie.” Let’s go. Ms. Zeller probably doesn’t want to see us right now.”

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 !...
