Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1949

I had not returned to Regal Villa for a long time, but it was still as clean as ever.

The door was open, and I went straight in.

After going in, I did not see Caroline whom I was so close with coming out to greet me. In the living room, Nicky looked out toward the door when she heard a sound. I did not expect her to still be living here after such a long period of time.

Some surprise colored her face when she saw me. She then asked with a smile, "Wanda, you're back."

"If I didn’t come back, you'll soon become the hostess here." I smiled, but I was looking at her without the gentleness of the past. It had been replaced by a sharp blade that shone in the cold light. "I thought you would’ve already moved out. "

Hearing what I said, Nicky was stunned for a moment but then she smiled. "Wanda, how can I leave when you allowed me to stay here?”

She was acting a little bit more like an innocent, gold-digging b*tch.

Not wanting to argue with her too much, I started looking for Theo. I did not see him in the living room or kitchen. I was about to go upstairs, but Nicky stopped me. "Are you looking for Theo?"

Theo?

Since when did she address him so intimately?

Nicky was still addressing him as President Grant before I left. Was she calling him by his name now?

I was thinking about this when Theo came downstairs. His forehead was still wrapped with gauze, and there were faint signs of bleeding. It looked like he had been seriously injured.

"Theo..."

"Theo."

Nicky and I spoke in unison. I turned and glared at her. I was about to step forward to help Theo, but he unexpectedly walked past me and went straight to Nicky. In a gentle voice, he asked, "Nicky, who is she?"
