Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1167

Mr. Collins invited me to a meal?

I asked curiously, "Why is Mr. Collins inviting me to a meal?"

"I told him about you. I haven't had a lot of friends since childhood, so he's happy that we're friends. He insisted that I drag you home to have a meal together.”

I chuckled. “Okay."

Mr. Collins had mentioned my mother when we dined together last time. I could use this opportunity to ask him about Mother.

After hanging up the phone, Theo asked m e with a faint smile, "Shannon?"

I nodded. "She invited me to dinner at Mr. Collins’ house."

Theo raised his eyebrows. "Are you not planning on bringing me along?"

After a long silence, I shook my head. "I think it'll be awkward if you go. Besides, Shannon and I will be doing most of the talking. You'll only be bored waiting for me because you can't even join in the conversation."

Actually, the main thing was that I would b e asking about my mother. I did not want him to know about it yet.

Theo did not insist further and merely asked with a faint smile, "Have you ever had a crush on Jordan?"

I nearly bit my tongue after hearing the question. I widened my eyes and looked at him with some surprise. I asked, "What are you talking about? Shannon and Jordan are already dating each other. Don’t say nonsense like that."

Theo sneered. "You were the one who said : t last time. You said you thought that

Jordan was a good man and worthy of your affection.”
