Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1474

He had a delicate short haircut, wore a woolen jacket, and sat in a wheelchair. There was a blanket covering the lower half of his body. We were at room temperature, so I could not help but wonder if he would feel warm dressed like that.

When the man saw me approaching, he politely smiled. "You’re early, Mrs. Grant.”

"This involves human life. Please understand that I don't have the patience to wait that long." This was the last bit of my patience.

"Of course, I understand, but this is usually my rest time. You can tell that I'm a patient too, and patients need their rest. Hence, I, too, seek your understanding."

The waiter served a cup of coffee as he

spoke. I realized there was not a single person around, and even the black-clad man who showed me the way earlier was gone. In my field of vision, only Alex was sitting from across the table.

I was not even sure if he was Alex Hodds.

"You are-"

"Sigh, let's not mention it first."

Just as I opened my mouth to confirm his identity, the other party stopped me with a smile.

"Please let me have some rest, Mrs. Grant. It's only then will I be able to have the strength to get into business with you later." The other party picked up his coffee as he said. He turned to look out the window leisurely and started to admire the view.

My hands were clenched into fists, rubbing

each other. "But you seem quite okay right now. Are you deliberately stalling for time?"

As I did not know the other party well enough, I held back my anger. However, my words had revealed my impatience.

Even so, the other party was not startled at all. "No matter how okay I am, I still need to rest at this time. This is already part of my biological clock. Please don't interrupt me, Mrs. Grant. I’ll answer your doubts when the time is up."
