Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1147

Now that was awkward!

Those clothes were not Shannon's?

I cleared my throat and quickly comforted Shannon. "Maybe he bought extras, so he brought them back with him and put them i n the closet."

"How is that possible?” Shannon wore a teary expression. "How could a person like him find it hard to part with clothes?

Besides, why would he bring back women's clothes if he can't wear them?”

After a few seconds of silence, I comforted her, saying, "Shannon, let’s not concern

ourselves with this for now. We can always talk about it after we’ve cleared things up. That way, at least you're being responsible toward each other. It's taboo for a pair to misunderstand each other before having a clear idea about what happened. We’re adults and should treat feelings in a more rational manner. Let's not think too much for now, okay?"

Theo and I had been together for many years. There were many times when I felt aggrieved and wronged, but that was all because I started misunderstanding him before I knew what was actually going on. I t was because I was not willing to solve the misunderstanding.

Therefore, I had suffered greatly in this relationship. I did not want Shannon and Jordan to go through similar things like Theo and I had. If a relationship could go o n until the end of time, would that not be a great thing?

Shannon looked at me, seemingly calming down now. "Okay, I'll listen to you and plan the next course of action after getting a clearer picture of things.”

Jordan had gone to the company, so only Shannon and I were at home. After unpacking her things, I went downstairs to make something to eat. However, she stopped me. She said she would do it because the smoke and grease in the kitchen would be too much for a patient like me to bear.

I did not reason with her and agreed immediately.

After going downstairs, I stood in front of a window and saw puddles in the yard. The cleaners would only come the day after tomorrow, so I went to the utility room to grab a mop and cleaned up the puddles of water in the yard.

I did not expect Jordan to come back suddenly. When I saw the groceries in his hands, I asked dazedly, "Why did you suddenly return?”

Was he not supposed to be in the company at this time?

“Aren't you guys planning to cook?” he asked, handing me a bag of fruits. "I'm worried that there won’t be enough ingredients at home. I bought some fruits too."
