Chasing My Pregnant Wife



The topic of impending separation felt rather heavy and neither of them wanted to continue.

"Let me peel an apple for you." Rosalie picked an apple from the basket and peeled it with a knife.

They remained silent, not saying a word for a long time.

"Rose, how is Theodore?"

"Some things happened recently and he wanted some time alone. He said he'll be back soon."

"What happened?"

Rosalie told Justin about it.

Justin's brows furrowed. "Turns out that they are siblings. That's unfortunate for Theodore. Not only does he have a madman for a younger brother, but he also has an older brother who wants to kill him."

"Yeah. We don't know what to do about it. After he returns, I want to have a good chat with him. Even if I can't help him with much, I can offer some words of consolation."

"Do

you still live with him now?" Justin asked.

Rosalie nodded. "Yeah, I'm staying with him now and taking care of Steve with him. I feel like Steve has been quite happy recently, perhaps because both of his parents are by his side."

Right after Rosalie said so, a thought suddenly came to mind and she looked up to explain, "Justin, staying with him doesn't mean I've reconciled with him. It's just more convenient that way to take care of Steve together. He and I..."

"Rose," Justin cut her off. "There's no need to explain. I understand."

Rosalie was under no obligation to explain herself. He wasn't anyone to Rosalie aside from an ordinary friend.

Still, Justin did feel rather sad hearing Rosalie say that she was staying with Theodore right now. They were already staying together, so reconciliation was probably on the cards. They had a child together, too—that alone was enough for Theodore to emerge as victor.

Rosalie was suddenly at a loss for words.

"Rose, just do as you please. You don't need to consider what I think, as long as you feel that you're right."

"Justin, will you return to Melrine immediately after you recover?"

Back on the topic again, Rosalie felt rather suffocated.

"Do you want me to go back immediately?"

"I..."

Justin took a bite of it. "Rose, I'm going to get some rest. Go home."

"But you haven't had lunch," Rosalie said. "Get some sleep after lunch."

"I will have lunch. Head on home first. I'll read this book when I'm free."

Rosalie knew that the mood had gone wrong. Justin was leaving, and she couldn't make him stay.

She stood up, picking up the book. "I'll be off, then. I'll come back to visit you again."

Justin nodded.

She turned to walk to the door, but suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked back. "Justin, promise me one thing." "What is it?"

"If you really end up going back to

Melrine, t

me before you do. Don't just leave without a word like what you did before."

Justin nodded. "Okay, I promise."noveldrama

Hearing his promise, Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief and left the ward with the book in hand.
