Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 130

His handsome eyes darkened slightly. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this what you call fine?" There was anger in his tone.

"I'm really fine. It doesn't hurt at all." I was being stubborn again. I curled my lips and spoke.

He did not say anything. He took the cotton swab and dabbed it on the wounds. He was no longer as gentle a s before and seemed to deliberately exert more force.

It was so painful that I let out a gasp and cried out loud. "Theo Grant! Are you doing it on purpose?"

"Didn't you say that it doesn’t hurt at all?" There was a hint of teasing in his voice. He did not sound angry but his tone was not soft either.

However, I was enraged. "You..." I was so furious that I could not say anything.

He chuckled. Then, he treated my wounds gently just like how he did before. He even blew on them to relieve the pain.

I pursed my lips and said nothing until he was done dressing the wounds.

He put the first aid kit back, carried me back to his office, and put me on the sofa.

I stood up. "I'm going back to work."

He looked up and glanced at me. He pointed at the breakfast on the table, saying without any expression, "Finish all of them."

I was speechless. Keith bought these for him. Besides, I had almost finished eating my oatmeal and buns. I looked at him, curled my lips, and said, "I already ate some just now. I'm not a pig. How am I supposed to finish all of this?"

"You'll have to eat even if you can’t." His voice was cold. It seemed he would not take no for an answer.

"Theo, I can’t eat anymore. And I have a lot of work to d o today. I have to go downstairs. Otherwise, Heidi won't be able to handle so much work." If taking on a tough approach did not work, then I would try being soft.

He stared at me for a moment. Then, he walked to the table, took out his phone, and made a phone call.

After a while, Heidi was seen carrying a stack of documents over.

"Wanda, these are the documents for Bluewind Tech and AI-Link Technologies. Please take a look at them. And this is the stack of documents that you need to sign. You'll have to look at these too. I’ll come to get them later.”

Heidi put the documents down and shot me a curious look. The glimmer in her eyes was unusual.

I knew she wanted to figure out my relationship with Theo. I pretended that I did not notice her signal. I packed the various kinds of pastries and food into a bag before saying to her, "You haven’t eaten breakfast, right? I bought breakfast for you. You're welcome."

"Wanda, I've already eaten.” Heidi looked at me, puzzled.
