Chasing My Pregnant Wife



Theodore suddenly suggested, "Rose, move in with me. I'll arrange for someone to protect you 24/7."

Rosalie was taken aback. After regaining her composure, she immediately shook her head. "There's no need. I can take care of myself. You don't have to worry."

"Rose," Theodore said with urgency, "you're right. With everything that's been happening, it's likely we've been under surveillance for a while. I think you need protection. Please, move in with me."

"You're just looking for an excuse to get me to live with you. I won't move in with you, so don't bring it up again. I have to go now. You'd better get a check-up."

With that, Rosalie took Steve back from Theodore's arms. Seeing how resolute she was, Theodore realized that saying more would be futile.

"I'm sorry for being impulsive earlier. At the very least, let me take you home. Please, I won't feel at ease unless I escort you back." Rosalie nodded. "Alright."

The driver dropped Wesley off at his residence. Exhausted, Wesley collapsed onto the couch. Despite not having slept all night, he couldn't feel any trace of drowsiness.

After hesitating, Wesley picked up his phone and dialed a number. On the other end, Christopher's voice sounded. "Hello?"

"Christopher, Sydney's been hurt."

"What did you say?" Christopher asked immediately. "What happened to her?"

"She attended Theodore's wedding and was shot. She's still unconscious in the ICU now."

"What?" Christopher exclaimed, shocked. "Which hospital is she in?"

"You don't need to know that," Wesley replied. "I called to ask if you have any idea who might have wanted to harm Sydney."

Christopher fell silent. After a moment, he said, "I'm not sure, but I'll investigate."

"You don't know anything?" Wesley snapped. "Sydney left me and chose to be with you, but you're clueless about everything concerning her! What good are you?"

"Sydney left me after divorcing you. She's not with me. Wesley, if you couldn't protect the woman you love, don't project your incompetence on others. She was with you when this happened. Maybe you should reflect on whether this is your fault."

With that, Christopher hung up the phone.

Wesley was stunned. Sydney had broken up with Christopher?

Christopher likely wouldn't lie about something like this-there was no reason for him to.

Why would Sydney leave Christopher right after divorcing him?

Could it be that she didn't want to be with Christopher after all?

Had she not divorced him because of Christopher?

What was the real reason?

Bang, bang, bang!

The door was pounded on with a force so strong it felt like it might break.

Chandra was sitting on the balcony, smoking. The sharp knocking made her frown. None of the servants would dare to knock like that. She already had a good idea who it was.

"What do you want? Are you trying to break down the door?"

Chandra stubbed out her cigarette and went to open the door.

Outside, Christopher stood fuming, his glare so intense it seemed he wanted to devour her.

"What are you doing?" Chandra asked.

"Did you order someone to shoot Sydney?"

Chandra froze for a moment before

"Was it you?" Christopher asked, clearly unconvinced.

He stormed inside, slammed the door shut, and locked it. "Mom, tell me the truth! Did you do this?"

Chandra let out a cold laugh. "The way you're acting, it's almost likez you're hoping I did it. That way, you can say you found the culprit and
