Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 219

"Did you encounter something? Are you feeling anxious?” His voice sounded a little worried.

"A lot of things have happened. I want to have a talk with you. When are you coming back? Can you come look for me in Salt City? I'm pregnant and can't go far."

"Alright. I'll finish my work here in the next two days and fly back to see you. Before that, promise me you’ll have self-control, eat your meals well, listen to music, take a walk, and think happy thoughts. Don't let yourself fall into a negative mood."

Maybe my tone sounded too depressing and scared Jerome. He nagged for a long time.

I was not in that serious of a state. I was just panicking, which made my mind return to the past. I only wanted to have a talk with him.

I hung up after chatting with Jerome for a while. I did not want to go back home and just wanted to stay somewhere empty and silent. I then took a cab and went to Cecilia’s house.

Back when Cecilia had just bought the house, she wanted to give me the keys but I refused to accept them. I thought that I would not go there alone if she were not at home. After I called her and asked about

the keys, she forced me to take them and said it was t o prevent me from wandering around outside when I got into a fight with Theo.

Come to think of it now, Cecilia indeed had good foresight.

When I got to her house, I sat on the couch and thought about many things. At last, I felt exhausted and climbed into bed to get a good sleep.

When I was half-asleep, I was awakened by the crashing noises outside of the door. I quickly got out o f bed and opened the door to have a look. The door lock that was in good condition just earlier was smashed and broken. Theo stood outside the door with a cold face.

When he saw me, Theo let out a sigh of relief and asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't you answer the phone?”

I frowned with a sour face and said faintly, "It was on silent mode, I didn't hear it.” I glanced at Cecilia’s door lock and felt somewhat angered.

"You didn't answer my calls and I got really worried, s o I..." He spoke halfway and turned to the technician who had not left yet. He said, "Get the lock changed to a new one. Get the best and most expensive one there i s."

I did not say anything more and turned to return to the bedroom.
