She parted her lips slightly, exhaling trembling breaths.
Theodore's breath, buried in the crook of her neck, became increasingly hot and heavy.
Suddenly, a faint voice came from her lips. "Theo, has Vincent's surgery been completed?"
Theodore's body stiffened. Just as his passion was reaching its peak, he heard Rosalie utter another man's name. He felt a pang of guilt and pain.
He stared into Rosalie's closed eyes, noticing she was still asleep—or perhaps half-asleep—not fully conscious of what was happening.
Yet, even in her half-dreaming state, she still thought of that man. Even while asleep, she was concerned for him.
Theodore suddenly felt like a scoundrel. How could he take advantage of her like this at such a vulnerable moment?
She was already suffering enough, yet he still hurt her.
It was so hard. How many men could control themselves when faced with their beloved woman lying naked in front of them?
Theodore closed his eyes in pain, a tear slipping down his cheek and falling onto her.
Finally, he sighed deeply, pulled the blanket over them both, and gently held her in his arms. He kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear, "Not yet. You rest for now, and I'll let you know once the surgery is done."
Rosalie was really exhausted, and she was also frightened by recent events. She was mentally and physically drained, too tired to even open her eyes. So, she was completely unaware of how close she was to Theodore.
Theodore held her like this, unwilling to let go or look away.
That night, Theodore didn't know how many times he kissed her.
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 !...
