Chasing My Pregnant Wife

“Also, Rose did indeed throw water at Cynthia. Don’t worry. It was just cold water. But I suppose that even cold water would make you feel unbearable pain, wouldn’t it?” said Sydney, her voice dripping with

sarcasm.

“Mom, don’t push me!” Theodore’s gaze grew increasingly darker.

“What did I do? I’m just stating the facts. It’s you who’s not listening. to the truth. Did you even listen to Rose when she tried to explain why she splashed water on Cynthia? No, you only listen to everything. Cynthia says.”

Cynthia started crying in bed. “Aunt, I know it’s my fault. It’s okay if you blame me, but please don’t make things difficult for Theo, okay? If you have any issues, take them out on me.”

“Shut up! Was I talking to you? You kept quiet when I asked you to speak, but you’re so eager to interfere when it isn’t your place. Don’t think I don’t know you’re trying to sow discord!” snapped Sydney.

“That’s enough!”

Theodore grabbed Sydney’s arm and pulled her out of the hospital room. Rosalie, who was still standing outside the room, quickly stepped forward when she saw her husband treating his mother so roughly.

“She’s your mother. If you can treat her like this, how far are you willing to go for Cynthia? You’re losing control!” Rosalie reprimanded.

Theodore was no longer the man she knew. He had changed. Was it Cynthia who had changed him, or had he always been like this and Rosalie just hadn’t seen it clearly?

“Me? Lose control? You all seem to have become victims now. But the one lying in a hospital bed is Cindy, not you!” Theodore sneered.

“So, whoever’s lying in bed is the victim? This world is so simple, huh? That’s something new I learned today.” Sydney grabbed Rosalie’s arm. “Rose, go home. Lie in bed and be miserable, as though you’re at death’s door. Let’s see if your husband will worry about you like he does for Cynthia.”

“Mom, no need for that. It’s not worth fighting for a man in such a way,

said Rosalie.

“Yeah, it’s not worth it. We have so many other things to do. Why

waste time on a man? Only women who can’t live without a man will cling to them every day. Rose, let’s go.”

Sydney pulled her daughter–in–law away. Theodore didn’t stop them. Them staying here would only add to his annoyance.

After taking just a few steps, Sydney suddenly turned back and said, Theodore, think for yourself and figure out why everyone wants to pick on Cynthia. By the way, Cynthia isn’t happy about the assets you were planning to give Rose in the divorce.

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask her yourself. Tell her you’re willing to give half your assets to Rose and see how she reacts.”

The two women left. Once they were far away from Theodore, Rosalie couldn’t hold back her tears anymore. She didn’t sob out loud but just silently let the tears fall. Sydney didn’t stop her. When one feels like crying, one should cry. It was even more uncomfortable to keep it bottled up inside.

Rosalie didn’t cry for too long. After a while, she wiped away her tears, acting like nothing had happened.

“Mom, why did you come to the hospital?” she asked.

“Theo called me too, asking about what happened at lunch. From his tone, I knew he would come here and cause trouble for you.”

“Mom, thank you for coming to help me. I really didn’t know what to do just now,” Rosalie said as she gently touched her belly and wondered why it was so hard to raise a child..

“Maybe you should really divorce him. Set a time to sign the documents and make it official. If you both agree to keep it secret, Grandma won’t know, and you can pretend to be a married couple in public. Once the marriage is over, he won’t be able to do anything to you in the future,” Sydney suggested,

Seeing her mother–in–law being so calm and rational, Rosalie couldn’t help but admire her a little.

“I understand. I’ll talk to him about it when he calms down.”

No matter what she said now, Theodore wouldn’t listen anyway. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sydney nodded. “Do it as soon as possible.”

Then, she drove Rosalie back home.
