Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1955

She looked at me with a calm expression, completely unlike the one I just saw. She could not help but say, "Wanda, aren’t you being too generous? This is a big deal. Why are you so calm?"

"I just left the hospital, and the doctor specially told me not to agitate myself anymore."

Earlier, I was so pissed off by Nicky till the point I became unwell.

Shannon's tone softened. She looked at me, deep distress filling her eyes. "Okay, okay. I won't say much about it. So what are your plans next?"

I shook my head. It happened so suddenly. I really had no idea.

"Where are you staying now?"

"At a friend's house. Don't worry, they’re good people."

Shannon was probably worried about whichever pirate ship I was getting on again. She probed me with questions about the person’s background until I revealed Drover’s name. “Oh, it’s him! Since he lives in the public eye, I feel more at ease.

"Alright, stay there in the meantime and think about your next plan." Shannon was worried that she would be affecting me by talking too much and did not bring Nicky up again. She kept the topic revolving around Theo. "But to be honest, Theo's quite strong. The fact that he can get up and immediately handle company matters despite having lost his memory is a testament to how powerful he is.”

I was stunned for a moment before replying, "I'm a little tired. I want to rest for a while."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Remember to contact me if there’s anything. Bye."

"Bye-bye."

Putting down the phone, I thought about the problem with Nicky and unknowingly fell asleep. It was already nighttime when I woke up.

"Wanda, it's time to eat."

I heard the sound of knocking on the door and a voice calling me. I got up in a daze and replied toward the door, "Okay, you guys should eat first. I'll head down in a while."

I went into the bathroom and felt a lot more awake after washing my face. Then, I went downstairs.
