Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2019

Sitting in a cafe, I waited for Keith quietly.

I could vaguely hear the cries of the child from my call with him just now. He was probably still staying at home and had not gone looking for a job.

Things sure were different now.

I sighed.

"Why are you sighing, Miss Lane?"

The familiar voice pulled my thoughts back. Looking at the familiar face in front of me, I smiled lightly. "Long time no see."

"Long time no see." He still looked so spirited and more energetic than before. His complexion looked so much better without work ravaging him.

It looked like Theo had really tormented him.

"It should be easy for you to find another job with your talents. Why haven’t you found a new job?”

"How did you know that, Miss Lane?"

"I heard a child crying over the phone just now, so I figured you were probably home. It’s also work hours now, so it wasn’t difficult to put two and two together," I slowly said.

As if to agree, Keith nodded. "Well, I used to be so busy with work that I didn’t have time to spend with my family. Since I finally have more time now, I just want to take it slow and spend more time with them. I missed out on a lot when my child was growing up. I can’t miss it this time."

Without a job, he now looked like he was glowing with fatherhood. He looked very soft.

I agreed with his words. One really should not miss their child’s growth.

"I see. You can rest more, then."

"You came looking for me out of the blue, Miss Lane. What’s the situation?" It was Keith who cut to the chase first.

I mulled things over and thought about how I should start. After pondering for a moment, I said leisurely, “I want to look into someone, but I don't know if Theo has told you about her before."

"Who is it?"
