Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 105

I pursed my lips and looked up to meet his eyes. I felt wronged. "Don't you believe me?"

He seemed to like my love confession. The corners of his lips rose and he did not answer me. He just lightly kissed my forehead before saying softly, "It's getting late. You shouldn't stay up so late. Go to sleep."

When I saw him like this, I stopped myself from telling him about Tyler. It had been a hard task to ease the atmosphere between us and I did not want to mess it up again. Hence, I decided to talk about it with him next time.

After a long day, I was very sleepy and fell asleep soon after.

The next day, I overslept. I rarely did that and when I picked up the phone to look at it, it seemed that I had muted it. Heidi had called me several times.

I called her back.

Heidi's anxious and tense voice sounded. "Wanda, I have bad news. Something bad’s going to happen."

"What’s going to happen?" My heart tightened, and my first thought was that Tyler must have come looking for me.

"Xander is going to hold a press conference today. He

said that he wants to explain the photos taken in the South Sea. All the major entertainment news outlets and netizens are waiting. They're all waiting to see who the scandalous actress is. It feels like the whole entertainment industry has blown up. Do you think that he’ll rat you out?"

When I heard what it was, I felt relieved. Xander had already called me last night to tell me about it, so I said, "It's okay, I'm sure he's just taking care of the matter." Lately, I had been going crazy because of Tyler.

"I'm not going to the office today, so if you need anything, just call me." Since the news was still trending, I did not feel like going to the office and being the target of people's gossip.

"Okay. Wanda, are you... and President Grant okay?" Heidi asked cautiously. The news had probably made the whole company worried about Theo's mood.

"Yeah, we're doing pretty well. You should go back to work." I hung up the phone after I said that and felt a little annoyed.

Before I put the phone down, it rang again. When I picked it up, I saw that it was Cecilia who was calling me.
