Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 148

At that moment, I was instantly awoken from my daze and jumped out of bed. "I'm sorry, so sorry. I didn't do that on purpose. Does it hurt really bad? I'll go get the doctor."

"I'm fine, I'm just playing with you. What a klutz! Are you hurt?" Theo cradled my wrist in his hands, gently massaging it.

After he mentioned it, I realized that my wrist was burning with pain. I must have been too anxious that I did not realize I knocked my hand against the cabinet by the bed.

"I'm fine, what about you? Did your wound tear?" I lowered my gaze worriedly. I may not have moved with full strength, but I was still worried since the wound was fresh from the operation.

As I was walking out the door, I bumped into Mason. H e was wearing his white doctor’s coat with a notebook in his hands. He looked like he was going to perform a check-up on Theo. He looked refreshed, a huge contrast from his worn-out appearance last night.

Mason saw that it was me and stopped me. "Thanks for last night."

I paused and recalled that he probably meant the blanket I covered him with at the villa last night. I shook my head slightly. "No worries, it's the least I could do. You wouldn't have been awakened in the middle of the night if it weren't for that annoying man."

Mason was momentarily stunned before he reverted t o his usual aloof expression. "Where are-"
