Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2316

I was driving, and unlike usual, Theo was seated in the passenger's seat. He had drunk tonight, so it would not be good for him to drive.

"Guess who I just ran into?" I winked, keeping him guessing.

Theo glanced at me and asked in a calm tone, "Who?"

"Yosef Faust, the general manager of Hyperspace Group. He asked me to go to the company tomorrow to talk. We might be able to decide on something. Hyperspace is an old brand. This is a good thing for Green Orange."

I was beaming with joy as I said it, but he looked very calm, not even a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth. Perhaps he was tired and did not hear what I said.

"Theo, did you hear what I said?" I called out to him.

This brought Theo back to his senses.

He snorted, then gave me a smile. "That’s great. Congratulations in advance."

Noticing that something was wrong with him, I frowned and asked, "What's the matter? Did something happen?"

Theo turned his head out of the window and propped his chin with his hands before responding to me, "I’m okay, I'm just a little tired."

"Well then, I'll drive faster so we can get back early for you to rest."

Could it be that he drank too much wine when I was busy just now and got drunk?

He did not smell too heavy of alcohol, though. It seemed like he might actually be really tired.

He would not have attended the banquet if not for me. Dealing with those little-known small companies must have probably exhausted his energy.

Thinking of this, I sped up.

We got back to the villa, and I showered first. I saw Theo sitting on a chair when I came out. He was in a daze, and his eyes were empty.

I went forward and stretched out my hand, waving it in front of him. "Theo?"
