Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Chapter 353

"You do have a friend by the name of Lily, don't you?" Sebastian smiled, knowing that he had a hold over Yvonne.

Yvonne swallowed hard. She straightened her body, and said seriously, "No, I don't."

He arched a brow, and was about to put his card away when she grabbed his wrist.

"But I can make her up!"

She stretched her hands out, and carefully pulled his black card from his fingers. She wrapped her arms tightly around it, for fear that her brother would snatch it back. Then, she blew him a flying kiss.

"See you, Seb! I'll be off to replace you a Lily!"

In the middle of the night, Rosalie felt thirsty and got out of bed for a cup of water.

She felt restless and irritable, with many things on her mind. The matter regarding Sebastian bothered her the most. She couldn't tell him about it, and had to settle the matter behind his back. This whole thing concerned his father, after all.

Rosalie chuckled helplessly over the irony of the situation.

What an outrageous situation she was facing right now-a father, using his son to threaten an outsider!

She had to admit, Geoffrey was sharp-eyed enough to pinpoint her weak spot right from their first meeting.

Rosalie returned to her bed, her head heavy as she rested it on both her hands. She stared at the ceiling in a daze.

After a while, she sat up on the bed, grabbed her phone, and sent Sebastian a text.

[Seb, are you still awake?]

Sebastian replied within seconds. [Not yet. What's the matter? Did something happen?]

Rosalie could sense his worry for her just through his text. She replied immediately, [I'm fine. I just wanted to ask if you are.]

[I'm fine. Just got home from work.]

Rosalie glanced at the clock, and realized that it was already eleven forty-almost midnight.

[Were you busy all the way till now? It's already so late!] she texted.

[Yeah, there was a lot of work today. I just took a shower and was in bed when you texted,] he replied.

[Go and rest. I won't disturb you anymore.]

[It's fine, I don't feel tired now. Just tell me if there's something up.]

[Nothing much, just wanted to check in on you. I didn't even realize it was so late. Go to sleep.]

[I'm very happy to receive your text. I can sleep well tonight.]

[So exaggerated? Oh, yes. Did you manage to ask Lily out?]

[I did. We'll have dinner tomorrow night. I'll go fetch you.]

[Don't do that. You should be fetching Lily instead.]

[Yvonne will fetch her.]

[Oh, but you should be the one fetching her! Don't worry about me, I can make my way there myself. Also, I'll just be there for a few minutes. I'll replace a way to draw Vonnie away so you and Lily can have some time alone. Don't worry, Vonnie and I won't be a third wheel. We're just there to make things less awkward and ease the tension. After we leave, you'll be on your own.]

Sebastian looked at Rosalie being so thoughtful in trying to set him up with someone else, and smiled bitterly.

He replied patiently, [Thank you. We'll see when tomorrow comes round.]

[Okay, we'll play it by ear. I look forward to meeting the lady you fancy. I'm sure she's very special,] Rosalie texted back.
