Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1962

I washed the dishes and went upstairs. When I looked up, I saw Nicky standing in the corridor with her arms crossed, waiting for me.

I glanced at Nicky. Even though I knew she was waiting for me, I still walked past her before she stopped me. "Wanda, didn't you see me?"

The corners of my mouth twitched slightly as I turned to look at her. "I did. I thought you were standing here for kicks. What’s wrong? Do you need me for something?”

She was a little angry but was worried that Theo, who was in the study, would hear us. Nicky glanced at the study before looking back at me. "We’ll talk in your room."

After she said that, Nicky walked to the room ahead of me.

Judging from how familiar she was with the way, it seemed like she was really familiar with the villa.

I lowered my eyes and entered the room after her.

Seeing me enter, Nicky glanced around to make sure that Theo had not come out before closing the door. She looked back at me with disdain on her face. "Wanda, you’d better lay low a little since you’re staying here. Don't overdo it."

Her sudden warning got a laugh out of me. I still had some of the urge to laugh in my eyes when I looked at her. "Could it be that I did something excessive and it threatened you?"

Hearing my counter question, Nicky was at a loss for words. She paused, her eyes shining. "Well, no. But I’m telling you in advance not to engage in these futile efforts."

It turned out she was here to tell me off.

I pursed my lower lip, lowered my head, and smiled before shaking my head. “Do you lack that much confidence in yourself?"

"It has nothing to do with my self-confidence. I know you have a strong background, but if you dare blatantly steal Theo, I’ll never stop with you!"

How delusional was this woman?
