Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1743

I told Theo about this when I returned home that night.

However, I did not share Queenie's and Florence's names with him. All I told him was that Sandra had defended me.

There was no discernible expression on Theo's face after he heard what I had to say, and he said calmly, "Just because she spoke up for you doesn’t necessarily mean it's a good thing.”

I did not understand what he was hinting at and tilted my head to look at him. "Theo, you don't think Director Tyler is a good person?"

The man shook his head. Then, worried that I might overthink things, he explained, "Director Tyler is talented, and I admire her. I just don't want you to trust someone simply because they did you a small favor."

I smiled when I heard his explanation. "Got it. I understand what you mean. I just felt embarrassed about the way we were so suspicious and interrogated her previously.”

"How about this? I'll increase her pay after she has completed the events scheduled for next week. What do you think?”

"Alright," I agreed.

Since that counted as compensation, I felt much better about things.

"How are you feeling today?" Theo changed the subject. He cared more about how I felt than he did about other people.

I gave him an 'OK' sign. "Everything’s fine. I’ve clarified everything I don't understand, and things will go even smoother tomorrow.' "My wife is so smart and talented. I'm sure she can shine like a star whenever she goes."

Theo complimented me languidly as the corners of his lips curled upward into a bright smile.

I looked up at him and saw the affection in his eyes. "That's enough. People are going to call you a potter praising his pots."

"Nothing to be afraid of since my wife is so talented."
