Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Chapter 20

The words “Ms. Young” haunted Rosalie like a curse all the way back

home.

Feeling some discomfort, she wanted to lie down in bed as soon as she arrived. As she waswalking to the bed, she stumbled and accidentally kicked the trash can. Just as she was about tosteady it, she noticed a phone with a cracked screen in the trash can.

Wasn’t this Theodore’s phone?

Rosalie remembered having heard something fall in the room early this morning. It seemed to havebeen this phone.

However, the floor of the bedroom was carpeted. So, even if the phone had fallen, it wouldn’t makesuch a loud noise, nor would the

screen have cracked like this. In fact, it looked as if someone had

deliberately smashed the phone.

Since the argument in the car, Rosalie hadn’t seen Theodore for four consecutive days. He seemedto have vanished into thin air, and the couple hadn’t been in contact with each other at all.

Every day, Rosalie felt heartbroken. When she woke up every morning, she felt suffocated, but shehad to keep going. She also had to force a smile on her face and pretend to be happy wheneverRebecca came to see her.

Today was a somewhat special day – Rosalie would be receiving her degree at Ashwick University’sconvocation ceremony.

She had just graduated from the Finance faculty. As the best student of her cohort, the dean hadasked her to represent the student body

and deliver a graduation speech. However, with everything that had happened over the past fewdays, Rosalle had completely forgotten about it and hadn’t prepared anything.

Theodore had once said that he would accompany her on this day, but today, she was alone.

When the dean called her name, Rosalie stood up from her place.

amidst the sea of students. Dressed in a black academic gown, she looked like a model student.

As the audience applauded, Rosalie walked onstage and adjusted the microphone. Just as she wasabout to speak, she spotted a mant walking into the hall. He stood with his hands in his pockets,silently staring at her.

Despite the distance, she recognized him at a glance!

Rosalie’s heart raced with excitement. Theodore had actually come. She had thought he didn’t wantto see her after that incident!

The whole room fell silent. Theodore had made a low–key entrance, and everyone’s eyes werefocused on Rosalie. No one had noticed the important figure entering the hall.

“Ms. Young, what’s wrong?” the dean whispered.

Snapping back to reality, Rosalie straightened up, smiled, and began speaking, “I am honored to bestanding here today to deliver this speech. Honestly, I didn’t like finance initially, nor did I want to

choose this major.

“I ultimately chose it because I hoped to use my knowledge to help the people around me.Unfortunately, the person I wanted to help. didn’t need my assistance.”

She had hoped to help Theodore, even going as far as to choose a major she didn’t like becauseshe didn’t want to be too different from

him.

Rosalie kept her eye on Theodore’s figure as she spoke. To her, it looked like he took a few stepsbackwards and left.

She had once told Theodore that she chose to major in finance because she liked it. But now, at hergraduation ceremony, she admitted that she disliked it. Now that they were getting divorced, shedared to say anything that came to mind, except that she loved him.

Rosalie continued, “But I never regretted this choice. Finance sounds like a vast and complexsubject. It involves a lot of data, intricate calculations, and seemingly high thresholds. It sounds likeit requires great talent to study this subject!

“But that’s not necessarily the case. As long as you use the right approach, even those who nevermajored in finance can understand the camel rating system.

“I’m grateful that I chose this major. Regardless of the outcome, I’ll be thankful for what I once had.Even if it’s over, those things will give me a better future. Thank you.”

In less than a minute, Rosalie finished her speech and bowed to the audience.

After the applause died down, the principal spoke again, “We have invited a special guest who tooktime out of his busy schedule to attend this ceremony.”
