Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2302

Sylvester called right after I had made my decision.

I looked up at Theo and pointed at the name. "Should I pick up?"

"Of course. He’s your brother, after all," Theo responded without thinking.

My brother…

I was used to being an only child, and suddenly having an older brother felt strange.

However, I still had to answer this call out of courtesy.

Clearing my throat, I tapped on the answer button and turn on the speakerphone. Sylvester's voice rang in my ears clearly, "Have you confirmed it?"

He was well-informed.

I responded, "Yes, I have."

"So, you’re my sister. I didn’t bark up the wrong tree." I could hear the joy in Sylvester’s voice.

Sylvester continued before I could reply, "Come back to the Yard family with me. Our grandfather wants to see you very much."

"I..." My voice dragged, and I raised my eyes to look at Theo. The expression on his face remained unchanged, but his eyes were clearly asking me to tell Sylvester what I thought. I sighed and then said, "I apologize, but I can't go back to the Yards."

"Why?!" Sylvester's voice was full of surprise.

"I’m not familiar with the Yards, and it doesn't make sense for me to go back now. So, that's it. You’ve found me. You can go back on your own to return to your life. Why bother taking me back?"

Sylvester very obviously paused after he heard what I said. "Sister, everyone in the family misses you very much."

"We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years. How can we have feelings for one another? Mr. Anders… Mr. Yard, why are you forcing me?" My voice was indifferent.

"But..."

"I’m sorry. I have matters to attend to here, so I'll hang up first. Goodbye, Mr. Yard." After that, I immediately hung up the call.
