Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1291

Petra and Grayson walked over as well. In just a few months, the two seemed to have aged more than a dozen years. They looked nothing like they were in their 50s but 60s.

I looked at them, not knowing what to say. I just put on a slight smile.

Petra's face was plastered with a loving smile. "I'm glad you're back. Although it’s really late now, we must welcome you home. Come in and have something to eat."

She pulled me into the villa after saying that.

When I called Cassey, she must have woken Petra up to prepare food.

Munchkin would not leave my side. He looked at me as though he was afraid that I would suddenly disappear again.

I rubbed his head and asked with a smile," You didn't sleep?"

"I was sleeping but suddenly woke up. Grandma then told me that you were coming back. Maybe our hearts are connected."

My heart warmed up, and I kissed his forehead. "Do you want to go to sleep now?"

"No."

Petra frowned. "You should go to bed. When your mommy has eaten, we'll all go to bed."

Munchkin was a very good boy and jumped off my lap compliantly.

I was just about to say good night to him when he ran upstairs.

Not long after that, he came back down.

Hugging my thighs, he said in a spoiled manner, "I want to sleep with you tonight, Mommy. I really miss you. Now that you're back, I won’t be able to fall asleep if I don't sleep with you."

When a child had separated from their mother for a very long time, it was only normal for them to state such a request. As a mother, I would not refuse.

I nodded with a smile. "Sure, well both share a bed tonight."

"Yay!" Munchkin was so happy he hopped and jumped around.
