Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 200

"Alright, I'll choose the filling." Seeing that I was in a good mood, Miss Woods cheered up as well.

"You’re always cooking for us, Miss Woods. Today, you’ll go sit on the sofa and watch TV. Let me cook for you." I pulled Miss Woods to the living room sofa to sit down.

"No, Mrs. Grant. It’s my duty to serve you. Besides, you’re pregnant. How can you cook?" Miss Woods struggled to stand up.

"Just do as she tells you to, Miss Woods. I’m here, I'll help her." Theo’s voice rang out from behind.

Miss Woods looked ambiguously at us and laughed." Alright, alright. Today, this old lady will take advantage of her seniority and wait to be served with food."

When I got back to the kitchen, I picked up the stalks o f celery and began choosing. Theo looked at me with his hands crossed, a skeptical look in his eyes. "Are you sure you know how to make lasagna?"

"Of course. I'll do it myself today so you can taste handmade lasagna. Listen up, a good lasagna has to b e made from scratch. The sheets and filling need to be handmade. That's the secret." I was confident in this

respect because I had learned it from Mom back then.

"What can I do?" Seeing how confident I was, Theo rolled up his sleeves to help.

"First, help me wash some onions and carrots," I instructed.

"Okay."

We bustled about in the kitchen, chatting from time to time. The atmosphere had never been better.

When I saw Theo wearing an apron and working hard i n the kitchen, I could not help but sigh. This was the kind of life I looked forward to as a couple. This was more perfect than I had imagined.

Soon, the minced meat and vegetables were ready. I excitedly chopped up the ingredients and vowed to let Theo admire my knife skills.

However, I soon embarrassed myself and realized I was a big talker.

Unsure if it was because of my fever last night or the fact that I was pregnant, I had no strength in my arm and it became very sore after I chopped less than ten times. It felt like it weighed a thousand pounds.

However, I had stated that I would make this meal myself, so it would be a huge humiliation to give up now.

Just as I was in a dilemma, Theo embraced me from behind and took the knife from my hand. He said tenderly, "I told you not to act tough in everything.
