Sebastian still cared very much for her. How could he bear to add to her pain when she was already in such sorrow?
She had just given birth two months ago, and her health wasn't in great condition. He specifically asked the doctor about it and was told they could only be intimate at least three months later.
He could wait. He didn't want to hurt her physically.
Eventually, he just held Rosalie in his arms and hugged her.
Rosalie cried for a long time in his arms until she was exhausted and fell asleep.
After a while, when Sebastian saw she was deep in sleep, he released her and got out of bed to prepare a hot towel in the washroom. He then returned to her and gently wiped her face with the towel.
He did it so softly and gently, afraid that he might wake her up.
His heart ached as he looked at her face, which was all red and swollen from crying. Her brows were still furrowed tight despite being asleep, as if she were in a nightmare. Even her breathing was ragged.
'Theodore Spencer,' Sebastian muttered under his breath, 'why do you have to disrupt our lives? You clearly did it maliciously!'
Thankfully, Sebastian found out Theodore was coming here beforehand and had time to prepare. Otherwise, the consequences of his sudden visit would have been dire.
Just last night, Sebastian received a call from Sydney. He was suspicious about receiving her call, and his tone wasn't pleasant.
"Mrs. Harper, I don't understand. Why are you calling me?"
"I'm calling you because I have something to tell you that can help you."
"Help me?" Sebastian sneered. "Mrs. Harper, what's going on with you? Why are you helping me? You can even say we're considered enemies."
Hearing the word 'enemies', Sydney smiled bitterly. "Would you believe me if I told you that I don't see you as my enemy?"
"So what if I don't? We're enemies. I still remember what you said before as clearly as day."
Comments
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 !...
