When Yerick heard the name "Rose", he frowned. "I'm a little curious. How did I bump into you here and end up getting hit? Do you even know how to drive?"
"You jaywalked, and you're blaming me for hitting you?" Theodore replied. "I have a dashcam. Want to check and see if you broke the law?"
"I was in a hurry," Yerick said, sounding aggrieved. "Besides, you're the one driving. Don't you know how to give way to pedestrians?"
Theodore couldn't be bothered to argue with Yerick, and merely said, "I'll take you to the hospital and pay for your medical bills. The rest is on you."
Yerick had darted across the street, and Theodore hadn't been able to stop in time. Even if there was any fault, it was shared equally. By getting him to the hospital and covering the costs, he had already done his part.
"You're so cold-hearted. No wonder Rose left you and married another man. You deserve it!"
Theodore frowned, and tightened his grip on the steering wheel. "What did you say?"
Yerick, despite the pain, gritted his teeth and sat up. "Are you angry? Am I not speaking the truth? The last time we met in the hospital, you were so aggressive and punched me. How could Rose be happy with that?"
Hearing this, Aurora was utterly shocked. "You two know each other? And what do you mean by punching him? Mr. Spencer, did you hit him?"
"I did punch him. He had it coming," Theodore said, starting the engine.
"What's all this about?" Aurora turned to Yerick. "So, you two know each other? Is this really a coincidence?"
Yerick replied, "We've met once. It was when Rose's husband had an accident. We thought it was Theodore's doing."
The more Aurora listened, the more confused she became. Just as she was about to ask more questions, Theodore interjected, "Enough. Let's all be quiet."
He didn't want to discuss these matters inside the car. He feared he might lose his temper.
Seeing Theodore's displeasure, Aurora dared not ask further. Yerick, too, fell silent. He leaned back against the back seat and continued groaning in pain.
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 !...
