Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1173

I froze, not able to understand what he meant by that in a short while.

I then saw him grabbing my arm. He gently rolled up my sleeve. Seeing the scratch marks on it, he said with a frown, "You didn't hit back?”

I nodded. "I did, but I just trimmed my nails two days ago, so my scratches don't hurt. I merely yanked her hair a few times."

He looked at me, a hint of exasperation emerging on his charming face. "If you don't have long nails, don’t you know how t o use your fists and legs?"

I could not stifle my laughter any longer." I'm not like you guys. I can’t use both my hands and legs at the same time when I fight. It's not that bad, really, dally poured a basin of water on her, so we weren't really a t a disadvantage."

He looked at me with a face full of disgust." It was two against one yet you still got hurt. You weren’t even the one who poured the water. If Lally wasn’t around, then would you be disfigured by now?"

I did not say anything anymore and lowered my head like a child, whispering,"

I wouldn’t have the guts to fight with her if Lally wasn't around. I'm definitely no match for her bold character.”

Theo snorted and did not intend to entertain me anymore. He turned around and prepared to leave.

I followed behind him and crouched down after taking just a few steps. I watched as h e walked far away. I felt particularly happy.

When he heard that it was all quiet behind him, he stopped walking and looked back a t me. He asked me with his brows raised, " What’s wrong?”

I looked up at him and pretended as though I was crippled. Without moving, I said, "I'm injured and can’t walk."

Theo facepalmed himself as helplessness was written all over his face. “Just tell me what I should do."

I tilted my head to think about it and said," Carry me."

Theo stifled a laugh. "Is your leg injured?”

I shook my head. “It’s not."

Theo chuckled, "Why should I carry you, then?"
