Chasing My Pregnant Wife

Rosalie felt disoriented after being wheeled out of the emergency room. She could hear voices, but her eyelids felt heavy.

Two hours later, Rosalie jolted awake from a nightmare. Having dreamt about losing her child, she instinctively touched her belly.

“My baby… my baby!”

“Rose, the baby is fine,” Stephanie said, holding her friend’s hand.

Rosalie turned to see her best friend standing by her bed. Upon hearing that her baby–was okay, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling her tension finally ease. Yet, tears started running down her face.

“I’m sorry, sweetie. I’m so sorry. Thankfully, you’re okay. Mommy won’t say silly things again!” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Stephanie wiped away Rosalie’s tears. “Don’t cry. You’re showing signs of miscarriage, so you mustn’t get too emotional. You have to take good care of yourself for the next few months. Rest in bed, eat balanced meals, and avoid strenuous activities.”

Rosalie nodded vigorously. “I understand. I’ll do all of that!”

Suddenly, a man walked into the ward.

“Mr. Carter, what are you doing here?” asked a surprised Rosalie.

Sebastian placed some fruits on the bedside table. “You sounded very worried on the phone. I got a bit concerned, so I came over.”

“Rose, Mr. Carter came to the emergency room when you were there. He was anxiously waiting at the door. Anyone else would have thought he was your husband” Stephanin anid tacsinal.

He’s… he…”

Rosalie suddenly didn’t know how to introduce Sebastian to Stephanie. They weren’t close enough to be considered friends, but they weren’t strangers either.

“I’m her friend,” Sebastian said as he stepped forward. “Though we’ve only known each other for a short while. Isn’t that right, Ms. Young?”

Rosalie nodded. “Yes.”

Thinking about how she couldn’t properly introduce Sebastian made her feel awkward. It had been quite impolite of her.

Stephanie whispered softly in her friend’s ear, “Why do you always have handsome guys around you? Who do you think is more handsome, him or your husband?”

At the mention of “husband“, Rosalie’s nose tingled, and the tears she had barely stopped started flowing again.

“What’s wrong? Don’t cry. Tell me what happened,” said a panicked Stephanie, feeling guilty for bringing up Rosalie’s husband and upsetting her. Something must have happened between the couple.

Sensing that the two friends needed to talk privately, Sebastian excused himself, “I’ll go out for a walk. I’ll come back later.”

But he didn’t go far, simply standing just outside the door and

listening in on the conversation.

“Steph, Theodore and I are getting divorced. I can’t tell him about this baby, or he’ll insist I get rid of it!”

Stephanie was shocked. “Divorce? Why?”

Rosalie told Stephanie everything, pouring out the whole story from beginning to end. She had bottled it up for so long, and now all her frustrations and grievances were finally coming out. Hearing

everything her friend had gone through left Stephanie feeling angry and upset.

“That jerk is so outrageous! And Cynthia is shameless! Rose, don’t cry. A man like that isn’t worth your tears. You’ll find someone better! Focus on your baby. Those two aren’t worth your emotions!”

“My head knows that, but my heart hurts! I’ve loved him for ten years. I was foolish to fall for the wrong man. If I didn’t love him, none of this would have happened. He… he just doesn’t love me!”

“Shh, it’s okay.” Stephanie hugged Rosalie. “Since you’re divorcing Theodore anyway, take your share of the assets and live freely. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Mr. Carter isn’t bad either, you know?

“I don’t think he’s any worse than Theodore. Look, he rushed over here late at night because he was worried about you. There are still good men out there. Don’t waste your time on a rotten one. It’s not worth it. “Steph, stop that. Mr. Carter and I don’t have that kind of relationship. It’s impossible!” Rosalie asserted firmly.

“Is Mr. Carter married?” Stephanie asked curiously.

“I–I’m not sure.” Rosalie shook her head. “But a man like him probably has a girlfriend at least. I’m sure he has plenty of women around him. Anyway, don’t say anything, especially not in front of him. It’ll be awkward.”

“Okay, I got it.” Stephanie nodded, wiping Rosalie’s tears with a tissue. “But promise me not to cry anymore. Many people care about you. Don’t just focus on that scumbag Theodore.”

Rosalie nodded. “Yeah, I know. Thank you.”

Yes, many people cared about her. Why dwell on a man who didn’t love her?

With Stephanie comforting her —

not get too worked up, fearing it might harm her baby.

“Here, eat some fruit.” Stephanie handed Rosalie a peeled banana.

Having not eaten much for dinner, Rosalie was now feeling a bit hungry. Plus, for the sake of her baby, she needed to replenish her nutrients. So, she obediently ate the banana Stephanie handed her.
