Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1777

Back in the room, Theo sat in front of my dresser without saying a word.

"What's the matter? Why are you sitting here alone? What are you thinking?” I stepped forward and sat on the bed opposite him.

I heard his slight sigh, and Theo turned his head to look at me with distressed eyes. " Next time, you have to inform me."

I promised him while nodding my head. ' Alright. I'll let you know in the future."

Hearing his heavy sigh, I knew Theo must be blaming himself now.

As I held onto his hand, I looked at him with a small smile on my lips. "Theo, I didn’t tell you because I was too worried about Munchkin’s safety. I thought I could solve it on my own."

I believed that Theo understood me and my current state of mind.

In the end, he merely sighed and said nothing.

Unable to bear to see him like this, I stood up, walked behind him, and hugged him from behind. "I didn't do it on purpose."

He took my hand and held onto it. Then, he pulled me up to him to face him upfront.

I could not look directly into his eyes. At this moment, there was some sort of hurt in his eyes that made me unable to look at him.

I always thought I could solve such a thing on my own, but in the end, I still needed him to come to the police station so that I could leave. I lowered my eyes and did not say anything.

Theo sighed again. He held my hand and said in a deep voice, "Wanda, I want you to believe that I can protect you and Munchkin at the same time."

He said these words so earnestly and so solemnly that I could not lift my eyes to look at him. "Theo, I'm... truly sorry."

I had a lot of things to say, yet they all morphed into a single apology. Then, for some reason, my eyes gradually became wet, and I burst into tears unconsciously.
