Chasing My Pregnant Wife

“What is it?”

“If I had nothing, would you still want to be with me?”

Cynthia looked at him in confusion. “Theo, why are you asking this?”

“Answer my question first.”

“Don’t you trust me? What do you take me for?” Cynthia was a bit angry. “Did I get together with you because of your status? How could you think that of me?”

Cynthia’s words, coming from a moral high ground, successfully made Theodore feel guilty.

But he persisted, saying, “Cindy, that’s not what I meant. But you know, my family really likes Rose. If divorce her, I might lose. everything.”

Cynthia was stunned. “Are you saying you’d be left with nothing?”

When Sydney said those words at lunch, Cynthia had thought it was just talk. How could the Spencer family leave Theodore, their only heir, with nothing? But now, hearing the same thing come directly from this man’s mouth left her feeling afraid.

“That day might come. Grandma really likes Rose. If she finds out I want to divorce her, she might strip me of my inheritance. Since she controls SK Enterprise, she might even give the company directly to

Rose.”

Theodore’s voice was calm, without a hint of regret or worry. He

stated it calmly as if it didn’t matter to him even if the company was given to Rosalie.

Cynthia’s mind was in turmoil, but she kept her emotions in check as she protested, “Theo, that’s so unfair to you. You’ve worked so hard. You’re the only heir of the Spencer family. They shouldn’t treat you like this! Even if Rosalie is good, she’s not a Spencer.”

“Cindy, I don’t care about inheritance. It’s all the hard work of my grandfather’s generation. I was just lucky to be born into it. If they really don’t give it to me, it’s fine.” Theodore sighed softly. “But if I lose everything, you’ll suffer with me. So, you should consider this question. If that day really comes, I won’t demand that you stay with

me.”

Worked up, Cynthia sat up in bed. “Theo! Why would you say such things? I’m not afraid of hardship. As long as I can be with you, I’m willing to do anything. I don’t care if you have money or not.

“I’m just defending you. Even though you were born into a privileged family, you worked hard too. Without you, SK Enterprise wouldn’t be as successful as it is today. How can they treat you unfairly because of a marriage?”

Cynthia was truly scared. She did love Theodore, but if he was real

Theodore’s hand. But now, he was telling her that he might lose. everything, and it would all go to Rosalie?!

“Cindy, don’t get worked up. I already said I don’t care. You don’t need to feel like it’s an unfair situation for me. Unless, you actually won’t want to be with me anymore if I lose everything,” Theodore said.

“It’s not like that.” Cynthia hurriedly grabbed his hand. “Theo, even if

you don’t care, I feel sorry for you. You’ve sacrificed so much for the Spencer family, and now they want to treat you like this for Rosalie. It really hurts me.”

Afraid he would misunderstand, she continued, “But if that day really comes, it’s okay. As long as I can be with you, I’ll be happy no matter what. Just being able to see you makes me feel blessed.”

It wasn’t the end yet, so she couldn’t panic. She wouldn’t let Rosalie succeed.

“Okay, it’s late. You should sleep now,” Theodore said, gently pressing Cynthia down onto the bed and tucking her in.
