Chasing My Pregnant Wife

“Oh, okay.”

Rosalie didn’t say much about Theodore’s answer. This was his home, and he could stay if he wanted to. Although it was such a normal thing, there was a faint sense of joy in Rosalie’s heart.

During lunch, Rosalie didn’t have much of an appetite. Seeing that she was mostly eating vegetables, Theodore kept putting meat on her plate.

“Why are you only eating vegetables? Have some meat.”

-Even the sight of meat made Rosalie feel nauseous, but she forced herself to eat it to avoid suspicion. Fortunately, she had taken some anti–nausea medicine that was specifically for pregnancy symptoms beforehand. So, she could endure it for a while.

“What kind of job do you want?” Theodore suddenly asked.

Rosalie looked up at him in confusion. “What?”

“Didn’t I say I’d arrange a job for you after you graduate? What do you want to do?”

“Oh… It’s fine. I’ll find a job on my own.”

“You’ll find one yourself? Aren’t you going to work at SK Enterprise?”

“No.” Rosalie smiled bitterly. “We’re getting a divorce. As your ex–wife, how can I still work at your company? Don’t worry. I’m sure I’ll find a job elsewhere.”

“It’s just a job. You don’t have to be like this. Or is it that you don’t want to work in finance despite saying you have no regrets?”

Every time they talked these days, Theodore could feel his wife

denberately avoiding him. If she was already behaving like this before the divorce, wouldn’t they become strangers after it?

I want to further my studies,” Rosalle said, the only excuse she could come up with.

“You want to study more?”

“Yeah. I think it’s better to have a master’s degree in finance.”

“Okay. If that’s what you want to do, go ahead.”

Since Rosalie wanted to study further, Theodore had no reason to stop her.

“Which university do you want to apply to?”

‘Let’s talk about it later. I need to think about it carefully.”

Rosalie didn’t want to discuss this issue now. Saying she wanted to further her studies was just a temporary excuse. Theodore nodded and didn’t ask further questions.

When the couple returned to their bedroom after lunch, Theodore. took a gift box out of the cabinet and handed it to his wife.

“What’s this?” Rosalie asked.

“It’s your birthday present.”

Rosalie was speechless. It had already been several days since her birthday.

“What are you waiting for? Take it.”

Opening the gift box, Rosalie found a very beautiful crystal bracelet inside it. Although she didn’t know much about crystals, she could tell the bracelet was of high quality and quite expensive.

“Why are you giving me a birthday gift today out of nowhere?”

+25 BONDS

forgot about your birthday and didn’t prepare anything previously. I ust bought this today to make up for it.” Theodore casually replied, sounding like it was indeed the case

1 see. Thank you.”

Wasn’t it expected for him to forget her birthday once Cynthia returned? It made sense that he would only remember Cynthia’s

birthday from now on.

Theodore sat on the edge of the bed, took the bracelet, and put it on Rosalie’s wrist. The sparkling crystal bracelet radiated a glossy texture, accentuating her already smooth skin.

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. You should wear it often. It’s said that this kind of crystal good for health, Theodore said with a deep gaze, seemingly carrying a deeper meaning.

Rosalie lightly touched the bracelet on her wrist, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

Theodore gently embraced her. “It’s very beautiful.”

Rosalie nodded. ‘Yes, it is.”

However, what she wanted wasn’t things like this.

Theodore was momentarily lost in thought as he stared at Rosalie’s beautiful face. He suddenly held her chin and turned her face towards him, leaning down to kiss her. They had kissed many times before, so when he leaned in, Rosalie’s initial reaction wasn’t rejection, but to close her eyes.

Just as their lips met, a sudden ringtone from Theodore’s phone interrupted the moment.

He seemed a bit annoyed, but when he checked the caller ID and saw

it was Cynthia, the irritation in his eyes dissipated instantly. He answered the call and held the phone to his ear.

“What’s up, Cindy?”

Rosalie couldn’t hear what Cynthia said, but after a moment, Theodore said, “I got it. I’ll be right there.”

After ending the call, he immediately stood up. “I have to go now.” “Okay,” Rosalie responded indifferently, despite her aching heart. Seeing her silent demeanor, Theodore opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing and left.

Rosalie collapsed weakly onto the bed, caressing the bracelet on her wrist. No matter what happened, Theodore would always choose Cynthia in any situation.
