Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2099

Although I knew Nicky would not give up so easily, she had at least been very quiet in the past few months. Even when I bumped into her when Theo and I were out for a walk, she would just nod slightly at us.

As my belly got bigger day by day, my due date was also getting closer and closer.

I was admitted to the hospital at Theo's suggestion.

Now, it was Shannon's turn to accompany me. She cut fruit for me. "Eat it."

"You’re becoming more and more virtuous, Shannon," I joked.

Shannon glanced at me. "Watch what you say. I’m a mother, after all. Your due date is just around the corner, right?"

I nodded. "Yes."

"If you give birth to a little princess, we can set up our babies together." Shannon's face beamed with joy. She became even more excited. "Yes, that's right. Your’s and Theo's child must be refined. Our Jackie is the only one worthy of your little princess."

"Not necessarily."

Theo suddenly appeared and glanced at Shannon. "I hope it’ll be a boy." He kissed me lightly on the forehead and smiled.

Hearing this, I pursed my lips. "You won’t like her if she’s a girl?"

"Of course not. Whether it's a boy or a girl, they’re still children of the Grants. If it’s a girl, she’ll attract too many suitors and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect her." Theo touched my stomach, his eyes full of love.

He would be a good father.

Shannon pursed her lips. "If it’s a girl, just marry her into our family and you won’t have to deal with all those messed up people outside."

"If your Jackson ends up being ignorant, I’ll regret the marriage."

"Don't worry, Jackie will definitely be a promising child. He’ll be no less than you, Theo."
