Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1257

Theo raised his eyes to glance at me. I glared at him, snatched over the cigarette in his hands, snapped it in half, and threw it in the rubbish bin. "Who allowed you to smoke?"

Theo smiled faintly as he got up and circled his arm around my waist. He smiled and said, "It’s all my fault."

"You aren't allowed to smoke anymore."

"Alright, I'll listen to my wife's words.”

Cindy did not expect me to overhear what she said while badmouthing me. After being momentarily stunned, she looked at Zedd and spoke up in an aggrieved tone," Zedd, you know that I didn't mean anything else. I was just making a joke." "I know." Zedd comforted her at once. "It's alright."

Could one just cover the bad things that they said with a simple joke?

I sneered. I did not feel like saying anything else.

Since it was not early anymore, Theo and I returned to our place to rest after walking around the area nearby the hotel for a short while.

We had been busy for an entire day. I was tired and sleepy right now. I fell asleep as soon as I lay on the bed after showering.

While I was half-asleep, I vaguely heard Theo telling me something. However, I could not remember what he said. I murmured a blur response to him and fell asleep.

It was not long until National Day.

Although I would not be able complete the project before National Day, I could still finish some of the important tasks at hand.

Theo was not in the room when I woke up in the morning. There was a note on the bedside table.

I picked it up and looked at the note. [ Something came up and I have to make a trip to the city. Remember to have your meals on time.]
