Chasing My Pregnant Wife

Rosalie was about to say that Theodore should be more worried about Cynthia, but she suddenly recalled that Theodore didn’t want to hear any mention of her name.

Each time they mentioned Cynthia, they always ended up upset.

As such, Rosalie swallowed back her words. Instead, she said, “You should be worried about yourself instead.”

Theodore seemed to have guessed what Rosalie originally wanted to say, but since she held herself back, he didn’t expose her. He took her cue in avoiding the topic of Cynthia.

“Rose, whether you believe it or not, have no malicious intent

whatsoever. I’m just worried that you’ll get hurt. Men are all horrible creatures. I’m just trying to help you discern between good and bad.”

He was genuine about it–and, if he was willing to admit it, slightly jealous.

“As my ex–husband, you might be willing to be the gate–keeper of my new relationship, but my new partner might not be agreeable to that,” Rosalie said reluctantly.

Theodore furrowed his brows. “Haven’t I already said that I’m your brother, and you’re my sister? What’s wrong with me gate–keeping my future brother–in–law?”

Theodore’s tone was dripping with bitter jealousy. Clearly, he wasn’t concerned with gate–keeping his future brother–in–law.

He simply didn’t want Rosalie looking for another man. In fact, he would find a way to make those men beat a hasty retreat.

Rosalie, refusing to concede, retorted, “Who would have an ex-

husband as a brother? Ridiculous. Ultimately, you just don’t want me to find another man, right? We’re divorced. Why are you allowed to be with Cynthia, while I’m forbidden from finding another partner? According to your logic, shouldn’t you bring Cynthia to me so I can gate–keep your relationship as your sister?”

“Haven’t you already met her?” Theodore said.

“Yes, I have,” Rosalie said. “But you’ve never asked me for my opinion on her, and you’ve always insisted on being with her.”

Theodore asked, “Then tell me, what’s your opinion on her? Do you think she’s fine?”

“If I told you to break up with her, would you do it?” she blurted out.

Since he dared to ask her for her opinion, she dared to tell him. They were divorced, anyway. What did she have to worry about?

Theodore was stunned at Rosalie’s request.

After all that, the joke was turned on him.

“Come on, why aren’t you speaking? Didn’t you ask me for my

opinion?” Rosalie pressed. She wanted to see how ridiculous

Theodore could be.

Theodore remained silent for a long time. Silence in itself was the best answer–an answer that struck the heart even deeper than a direct, verbal answer.

He could fool another with his words, but he couldn’t fake the look in his eyes. No matter what, breaking up with Cynthia was out of the question for him.

His dazed face made Rosalie burst out laughing.

Theodore furrowed his brows. “What are you laughing at?”

“You look so amusing! I fooled you, didn’t I? Hahaha…!”

Seeing Rosalie’s relaxed expression, Theodore realized she had been joking all along. She was only pretending to be angry and sad.

“So you were putting on an act.” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

He had thought she was furious with him, and panicked.

“What else? Would I really count it against you?” Rosalie sat next to him with a gleeful smile. “I finally caught you. You actually looked pretty cute when you got tricked.”

She sat very near him, the mood between them lighter and more

relaxed than before.

Rosalie’s gleeful and happy expression gave Theodore the sudden urge to punch her.

He was in such a panic just now, but it turned out that she was pretending all along. He really thought that he had made her sad and hurt her with his words.

Since when did she become so cheeky?

Seeing the displeasure on Theodore’s face, Rosalie leaned in close and ask, “Are you alright? Are you angry at me?”

Theodore raised a hand, and pinched her nose hard.

“I am angry at you, you dishonest brat. You’ve become more immature after we got divorced. You’re in dire need of a lesson.”
