Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2054

My words drew laughter from Matthew. He raised a brow but offered no denial.

A sense of unexpectedness surged in me. It looked like that was what he had indeed intended.

Taking a deep breath, I looked up at Matthew, with my gaze and voice filled with confusion. "I don't understand."

I shook my head and stared at him fixedly.

Matthew looked into my eyes, his expression freezing suddenly before he said, "Love makes people crazy, doesn't it?"

His question made my heart tremble. Before I could respond, he continued, "You’ve done a lot of stupid things for Theo. If someone asked you what you wanted, how would you respond to them?"

"I..."

I was once lowly like a speck of dust. I would endure his ignorant and even vicious words one by one, but what did I want at that time?

Right, what did I want?

I lowered my eyes. I only had Theo in my heart at that time and would be happy for a long time as long as he looked at me.

Seeing me like this, Matthew smiled again. "Who I am now is who you were back then. Do you understand, Wanda?"

I could not persuade Matthew, just as no one could persuade me before.

I did not want to remain here any longer after learning his purpose. I did not even want to attend the banquet. So I turned around and was prepared to leave.

Matthew suddenly stopped me. "Are you going to leave just like this?"

"I already learned your purpose. I don't think I need to stay to participate in this banquet,” I said truthfully without a waver in my voice.

I could feel him approaching me because his voice was becoming clearer and clearer. "You only know that I want to unite with everyone to go up against Theo. Do you not want to know what is the plan next?"

Turning around, I frowned. "Would you reveal your plans in front of me?"
