Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1201

"He went out early in the morning because he had things to do. I was woken up by my grandpa's phone call earlier, and since I'm already awake, I don’t plan to go back to sleep anymore." Shannon sounded a bit lazy.

"Do you want to join us for lunch this afternoon, then?"

If Jordan was not around, Shannon was likely to skip lunch out of laziness.

"No." Shannon refused decisively. "It's Saturday today. That iceberg is probably at home, right? I'm more afraid to see him, so I'll pass. I'll have lunch in the mall."

Iceberg?

It seemed like an apt description.

After hanging up the phone, I got up and went to the study.

Theo had no plans on staying here longterm, so there were only a few books on the bookshelf as well as some magazines.

I grabbed a book called 'History of a Small Town’.

I was a little surprised. Theo never read books like this. Keith must have purchased the wrong book.

I sat down on the sofa and started reading the book.

The author of this book grew up in a small town, so the book was a record of some of the things that had happened in the town. There were touching and heartbreaking stories.

My emotions were soon affected, and my eyes were a little red.

When Theo walked in and saw me crying, h e was startled. 'Why are you crying?"

He quickly took his seat beside me and embraced me.

I wiped the tears from my eyes and looked up at him, saying, "I read a touching story."

Theo frowned and took the book from my hand. He glanced at it.
