Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1797

It just so happened that Susan had sent me a few photos of her house before, and I used them all.

I typed in the title, rental, and waited for those who were interested.

"What conditions should I set?" Holding my chin, I began to type while thinking.

"Clean and hygienic, has to clean up the place at least once a week, diligent and motivated, no bad habits, no bad history..."

I listed a few, and after I was done, I read through them again. "Are there too many conditions?"

"Yes."

My mumblings actually got a response, which made me shudder.

When I looked up, I saw Theo standing behind the sofa. He had his hands behind him and was looking at me with a smile. I was startled again and patted my chest. "When did you come back? Why were you so quiet?"

He walked around and sat next to me. He stretched his head to look at the computer screen and said with a smile, "Your conditions are the same as looking for a husband. Whose house is it?"

With a sigh, I told him, "Susan's. She left. I took her to the airport. She asked me to rent out her house and help those in need before she left."

"You're renting it for free?" Theo had a brow raised, and there was a small smile on the corner of his mouth.

I tilted my head to look at him before letting out another sigh. "She canceled her number and I can’t reach her, so I..."

"I get it. It seems that she doesn't want anyone to know where she’s going. She’s determined to forget everything here. It's good. It's a relief for her, no?" Theo's tone was light and gentle. He was coaxing me.

After he said that, he reached out his hand and took me into his arms.

At this moment, my heart was full.

Just then, there was a sound from the door and we looked over together.

It was Nicky who had returned.

She was a little embarrassed when she saw our intimate position and was hesitating whether to call out to us or not, but we had looked over first.
