"Really? Quick, call her," Rebecca urged gladly.
Sydney's brows furrowed as she said, "Theo, are you really going to call Rose right now? She's very busy."
The solemn look on his mother's face made it seem as though the sky would fall on their heads if he really called Rosalie.
Instead of saying something, Theodore let Rebecca go and pulled out his phone from his pocket. He left the scene, and walked toward the door of the villa.
Sydney hurried out after him and saw him scrolling through his contacts.
Sydney said, "Theo, are you really going to call Rose?"
If he called her out of the blue, all her efforts would go down the drain.
Things would go back to what they were in the past, with the two of them entangled with each other and in pain.
"Are you afraid of me calling Rose?" Theo said.
"No, that's not what I meant," Sydney explained. "I just don't want to see you hurting."
"It's none of your business. It's my own business whether I'm hurting or not. I'm an adult, not a child needing his mother's protection."
Sydney bowed her head in guilt. "Theo, I just… I just don't want you two getting involved with each other again."
Fury burned in Theodore's chest, but he remained silent as he continued making the call and putting the phone at his ear.
Sydney was very nervous, unsure of what he would say to Rosalie. She couldn't rudely snatch the phone over. That would be too much.
But if things imploded between them, they would get entangled like they were before.
Things between Rosalie, Theodore, and Sebastian would get complicated again and might even become worse than it was before.
When the call went through, Theodore said, "Hello, Ms. Payne."
Sydney felt so anxious, but when she heard Theodore's greeting, she looked up with doubt in her eyes.
She heard Theodore go ahead to say, "Can you do me a favor, please?"
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 !...
