Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1783

The afternoon sun was particularly warm. I looked at Theo sitting in the living room obediently reading a magazine, and the corners of my mouth twitched into a smile.

I put a cup of hot tea in front of him and sat down beside him. Then, I reclined on the sofa with my head in my hands, staring at Theo.

He never took his eyes off the magazine, so I wondered if the content of the magazine attracted him or if there was some other reason. He read it very seriously.

As my train of thought was going wild, I heard fingers snapping me back into my senses. I looked at Theo with confusion in my eyes. ‘What's wrong?"
