Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) -
Chapter 761
Thus, Theodore arrived at Caleb's place without informing anyone, not even his parents. He didn't want to tell them. They would only offer comfort and advice, and he had heard enough of that. "Caleb, do you remember a few months ago when I was still married to Rose? I got drunk at your place, and you brought Rose over?"
"Of course, I remember. You even beat me up back then. You were so angry. If you weren't my best friend, I'd have made you pay for it." As he spoke, Caleb clenched his fists with gritted teeth. "Do you remember why I beat you up?" Theodore asked.
Caleb scratched his head. "Of course I remember. At that time, Rose came over, and you were drunk. I had a few arguments with her, and when you woke up, you came over and beat me up to protect her. I thought you were protecting your wife, but it turned out you mistook her for Cynthia. So, specifically, you thought I was bullying Cynthia."
Theodore forced a bitter smile. "Yes, I remember. After I beat you up, I was holding your shoulder, calling out Cynthia's name."
Mentioning this, he suddenly realized he hadn't seen Cynthia for a while. He wondered how she was doing. After he canceled the wedding, Cynthia must have been heartbroken and hated him.
"You're a jerk," Caleb added. "Even I thought you were a jerk. That was your wife, and you were protecting her because you thought she was another woman. You were holding her hand yet calling her another woman's name. I was so enraged." "Yes, I was a jerk," Theodore admitted.
Caleb said, "That's why you deserve what you're going through now. You brought this on yourself. Back then, you insisted on divorcing Rosalie and marrying Cynthia. We couldn't stop you.
"Now you're regretting it, aren't you? She's with a new man now, right? Are you happy?"
Caleb seized the opportunity to vent, which also felt like a way to get back at Theodore for beating him up back then.
After Caleb finished his tirade, he noticed Theodore had gone silent.
He felt a bit uneasy-had he gone too far? Was Theodore considering suicide again? But honestly, Theodore deserved it. He insisted on divorcing Rosalie and marrying Cynthia. Now that Rosalie didn't want him anymore, wasn't it his own fault? Although Caleb was Theodore's friend, honestly, Rosalie was now married to Sebastian, and Sebastian was her husband. It was understandable for her to protect her husband, right?
Besides, it was the kidnappers who hurt him. Shouldn't they be blamed first?
It seemed like Rosalie had made a difficult choice. It was like choosing between two children-no matter which one she abandoned, the other would hate her.
However, Caleb didn't dare say much. Given Theodore's current state, he feared that if he said more, Theodore might take drastic actions, and that would be his fault.
However, he could understand Theodore's feelings. The woman he loved chose another man at a critical moment-who wouldn't be heartbroken? Still, Theodore brought this upon himself. He didn't cherish what he had when he had it. "Are you silently cursing me for deserving this?" Theodore seemed to have read Caleb's mind.
Caleb remained silent, but Theodore guessed what he was thinking.
Caleb felt a bit guilty, "I... I didn't. No, I didn't. Absolutely not. No, no, no."
After saying "no" so many times, even if he wasn't guilty, he felt guilty, and his denial seemed hollow.
Theodore gave a wry smile. "It's okay. I do deserve it. It's all my fault. I've come to terms with it."
"Theo, you did make mistakes, but you're also quite unfortunate. From another perspective, you're a very devoted person. Even though you're divorced, you're still so distressed about your ex-wife. You almost lost your life over her. I believe if she gave you another chance, you would treat her well. It's just that..."
Caleb didn't expect Rosalie, who was so gentle and loved Theodore, to be so unwilling to reconcile after the divorce. She wasn't a strong-willed person. No matter how hard Theodore pursued her, she wouldn't come back. Now, she was married to another man, and that was quite a blow.
"Actually, at that time, I didn't take her as Cynthia. I knew it was her."
"What are you talking about?" Caleb looked at him in confusion.
Theodore turned to meet his gaze. "The day I beat you up, I knew it was Rose from start to finish. It's just that I had already said I wanted to divorce her, so I deliberately said Cynthia's name. I thought if I called out another woman's name, Rose would forget about me and divorce me decisively." Caleb didn't know how to respond. He really wanted to travel back in time and punch Theodore. This man truly brought it upon himself.
As Theodore's good friend, Caleb genuinely sympathized with him. Even so, he also truly felt Theodore deserved it.
