Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1398

Maybe he was truly in pain from the impact, he lay in bed and waited quietly for me.

I found the first aid kit and returned to the bedroom to tend to the wound on his forehead. Just as I was almost done applying the ointment, the locksmith said at the top of his lungs that he was done changing the lock.

I got up to go out and walked the locksmith out. I then set the password. It was still Shannon's birthday.

When I returned to the bedroom, Theo lay in bed with his eyes closed, looking like he had fallen asleep.

I was relieved to see that the bruise on his forehead was not too obvious.

After switching off the lights and laying down on the bed, I had just closed my eyes when Theo rolled over and embraced me.

I frowned and said, "Go to sleep."

"I can only sleep when I hold you."

Those were the words that only a child would say.

I rolled my eyes and ignored him.

I closed my eyes and planned to sleep, but my mind suddenly flashed back to the time I nearly died in the hospital.

I had been wanting to ask Theo about it when we were at the resort, but it was never a good time to ask because a lot of people were around. It also slipped from my mind when we came back.

I shifted my body and buried my head in Theo’s arms. "Theo, did you find anything about the incident at the hospital the last time?"

I suspected that Jordan had ordered someone to do it, but it was just a suspicion as I had no evidence.

In fact, I would feel slightly more at ease if it was Jordan. After all, we now knew that he was a scumbag who was very much against us.
