Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1088

The elevator stopped again and a few more people walked in.

He was accidentally bumped by someone walking in, and his body pressed against mine, which made me even more awkward.

I could distinctly feel my heart beating a little quicker. Theo's gaze fell on my face as he said in a low and deep voice, "We’ll arrive soon."

Though his words were breezy, they were able to give me a temporary sense of security.

When the elevator arrived on the first floor, Jordan, Elena, and Keith were already waiting at the door.

Theo walked out of the elevator first. Cally bumped her shoulder against mine and said a little ambiguously, "I saw that. You were embracing each other."

I blushed. "Cut it out. You made a mistake."

I quickened my pace forward after saying that.

Cally chuckled playfully behind me, which made me blush even more.

When we got to the entrance of the restaurant, Keith left after Theo said something to him.

The two employees following Elena noticed how Elena’s ankle did not seem to be getting better, so they asked with concern," Should I buy some ointment for you, Ms. Mandez?" "No." Elena refused with a slight smile. "It's not serious. It should be fine soon."

Her smile was very pleasant to look at, which made the two employees from Grant Corporation feel like they should be doing something.

Therefore, they said to Theo, "We’d like to excuse ourselves, Mr. Grant.”

Theo heard their exchange and glanced indifferently at them, saying, "Keith has gone to buy it."

The two volunteers felt slightly awkward, but they were now looking at Theo and Elena with an even more ambiguous gaze.

Jordan glanced blandly at me before saying with a smile, "You’re such a gentleman, Mr. Grant. I should've thought o f it first. How could I let Keith buy it? Gaily should be the one buying it. She can also buy some ointment for Ms. Lane while she’s at it. Ladies can't have scars on them."
