Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1680

Cindy sighed. "Whatever. I don't want to fight about such things, and I have work to do. In the future, please don't disturb me unless it’s something to do with work."

Then, I heard the sounds of Cindy's heels clicking across the floor.

She was probably leaving the scene, so I backed away hurriedly.

"Cindy Reed!"

Then, Zedd roared from the stairwell. He was probably trying to stop her.

Sure enough, the sound of her clicking heels vanished.

"You know how I feel. Leave this place and I'll let you do whatever you want. I'll open up an entertainment agency for you if

you're still fond of the entertainment industry. Acting as the CEO would be much better than staying here."

I pursed my lips. Why was Zedd being so terrible at speaking right now? Was it that difficult to tell her outright that he liked her?

"That's alright. I'm doing perfectly fine here."

As expected, Cindy turned down Zedd's offer.

However, what made me more panicked was Cindy’s rapidly approaching footsteps.

I panicked and grabbed Theo. I had no idea where we should go now.

When I turned to look at Theo with a pleading look on my face, I realized he was smirking as he stared at me. His feet were planted to the ground firmly, and he seemed to have no intention of moving.

"Quick, hide!"

"Why are you scared?" he asked as he held my waist and pulled me over so I was standing in front of him. I wanted to free myself but was not strong enough to do so.

The footsteps grew closer as she walked past the doors and arrived in front of us. Horrified, I turned around and saw Cindy standing before us with a furious look on her face.

My mind went blank, and I felt nothing but worry. Oh no, oh no. She was going to ask if we heard anything.

However, a mere second later, she merely rolled her eyes at us as she said, "The more you show off your relationship, the higher the chances of you breaking up."

She left after that.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Thank goodness she did not seem suspicious.

I glanced at Theo and thumped his chest.' What are you doing? Why did you have to let her see us?"

"What are you afraid of? This is your company. You have the freedom to be anywhere you want to."

"What are you guys doing here?" I saw Zedd when I turned around to look.
