Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2339

I finally agreed to his request after his incessant pestering.

It was late by the time I started the journey back home.

The lights in the house were still on.

Theo was on the sofa and looking at the computer when I got home.

"Why did you come back so late?" Theo asked after looking at the time on his watch and then at me.

I organized my thoughts and replied, "I had something to do. I got delayed, so I had dinner outside.”

I could not let Theo know what happened at Marius’ place.

"Huh? What's the matter? Did something go wrong with the company again? Just tell me if you need my help." Theo got up and came toward me to take my bag off me with an expression of care.

"Oh no, everything is fine with the company. It's Marius. He was fighting with some people on the road. I saved him and called the police. That’s why I’ve been busy until now!"

I did not say anything about going to Marius' house. I knew Theo would be a little worried even if he did not mind Marius.

I did not want something like this to cause a rift in their relationship.

"Huh? You’re not injured, are you?" Theo checked to see if I was injured with a look of concern after hearing my story.

"Yeah, I'm fine!"

My heart was warm at Theo’s concern.

Theo took my hand. He noticed the bandage and how my skin was a little scratched up.

"Look! And you said you were okay. Next time you encounter such a situation, don't just casually stride up to help. I'm not telling you not to help, but you must do so under the premise that you’re safe. Also, call me as soon as possible regardless of what I'm doing!" Theo said in a domineering manner.

Hearing this, my heart warmed, and I smiled.

"I'll go get some ointment and re-bandage it for you!" Theo was going to go get the first aid kit.

"I’m really okay. It's been dealt with. This small injury is nothing. Am I so fragile?" I said with a relaxed expression while waving my hands again and again.
