Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1964

The next day…

To play my role as a maid, I got up early and prepared breakfast.

Theo came downstairs before Nicky and came toward me.

He was still dressed in a black suit today. It was well-tailored, showing off his golden-ratio figure as well as his imposing aura.

He was sitting in his usual seat, and I looked at him with a smile on my lips. "Please eat."

"Mhm," Theo answered me lightly.

Five minutes later, Nicky came down. She saw me and Theo sitting at breakfast together, talking and laughing. She walked over with an unhappy expression.

She looked at me vigilantly and called Theo's name, pulling his gaze away from me. "Theo, what are you talking to her about while looking so happy?"

Theo pressed his thin lips into a line and then said lightly, "I was just wondering how yesterday's dinner and today's breakfast were all my favorite foods, so I asked her a few questions."

"Oh? What did you find out?" Nicky asked slowly while her gaze turned toward me with curiosity and sharpness in them.

I looked away and ignored her. I only responded to Theo's doubts. "The reason is very simple. I know you very well."

Theo and Nicky were both stunned by these words.

I figured Nicky did not expect me to be so direct while Theo was truly surprised that I knew him.

"I understand. After all, we used to be friends. I would inevitably tell her things about you. I didn't expect her to remember any of it. How rather scheming of her."

I really wanted to go up to Nicky and beat her up, but my reason allowed me to control myself.

Theo asked no further questions, and the topic ended just like that.
