Chasing My Pregnant Wife

Rebecca said, "Don't blame her."

Rosalie nodded. "I won't, Grandma. I don't have any reason to hold a grudge against her. I think Mom's quite lonely, too."

"Yes, she's rather pitiful. If I could turn back time, I wouldn't have let her marry Wesley. It's also my fault. But I asked you not to blame her not because she is pitiful, but because she had another reason for being harsh to you."

Rosalie was puzzled. "Grandma, what do you mean?"

"When she was harsh to you, what did you see?"

"I..." Rosalie was confused. "I just saw Mom being harsh to me."

Rebecca chuckled, and raised her hand to flick Rosalie's forehead. "Silly girl. I mean, what did Sydney's harshness result in?"

Rosalie rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit dazed from the flick.

"It resulted in..." She thought for a moment, and then tentatively said, "It resulted in Theo arguing with her."

"That's right," Rebecca said. "You finally got it."

"Theo argued with his mother to protect you. Think about it! Why would Sydney, who's so smart, pick on you for no reason? Only an idiot would do that. Do you think she's an idiot?"

With Rebecca's prompt, Rosalie suddenly understood something. "Grandma... You mean, Mom was harsh to me on purpose just to see Theo's reaction?"

"Yes," Rebecca said. "Continue guessing, and be bold."

The more Rosalie thought about it, the more incredible it seemed.

"Grandma, was Mom trying to show me Theo's reaction?"

Now, it made sense why Sydney seemed to have suddenly changed. Sydney was smart and capable, and she was strong to boot. Though she was serious and cold, she was definitely not narrow-minded. She wouldn't pick on someone for no reason.

"Yes," Rebecca continued. "She wanted to show you that Theo will still protect you if you're getting harassed. She wanted to make one last effort to see if she could salvage your relationship, even if it meant getting misunderstood by you. She just didn't expect the conflict with her son to turn out like that, nor did she expect him to bring up his childhood issues."

"How did you know, Grandma?" Rosalie asked in wonder.

Rebecca wasn't there at the time, but from her tone, it seemed like she knew everything that had happened.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Rebecca said frankly, "Would it be hard for me to find out?"

Rosalie immediately understood, and nodded without asking further. It was nothing unusual for Rebecca to know; she must have talked to the servants or the butler.

"In that case, Mom must feel very wronged. She was in a bad mood when she left, and Dad even chased after her. I don't know what happened after that." Rosalie was a bit worried.

Rebecca picked up her phone, typed something, and then clicked send.

Rosalie soon received a message. Rebecca turned around and said, "She's staying in this apartment. You can go see her."

"Okay, I'll call her before I go," Rosalie said.

"No, just go directly. If you call now,

she won't answer, and she'll reject you outright know about the conflict between her and Theodore that day, so she must be very sad I've asked, and she hasn't gone to the bank these days. She's been working remotely from home. If you go to her now, she'll be home. Surprise her, and have a good chat with her," Rebecca said.
