Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2363

The next day.

During the day, I stayed at the hotel to work on some company matters remotely.

The banquet was at eight o'clock, and when I opened the door at six o'clock, I happened to meet Don who had also come out at the same time.

He looked a little embarrassed when I ran into him. It was probably because he was drunk yesterday.

I smiled. "Let's go together."

On the way, Don glanced at me from time to time. I caught a glimpse of his hesitation from the corner of my eye. I smiled and asked, "Do you have anything you’d like to ask?"

I was looking at him, but Don pursed his lower lip and then cleared his throat. "Yes, uhm, I drank a little too much yesterday."

"It was more than a little too much. You couldn’t even walk," I added.

Don was embarrassed. He glanced out of the window and bit his lower lip before opening his mouth to say again, "You brought me back to the hotel… Thank you..."

"It’s nothing." I waved my hand.

He still looked embarrassed. Rubbing his hands, Don said, "I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said, did I?"

My interest was piqued. "What should you not have said?" I asked back with a smile.

Don was stunned. "No, I'm just worried that I spouted nonsense when I was drunk. If I said anything, it was because I was drunk. Don't take it seriously."

"I thought drunk words are sober thoughts." Frowning, I joked.

"So, what did I say?" Don obviously could not be at ease and showed uneasiness on his face.

I laughed out loud, shaking my head. "Nothing. You just fell asleep when you were drunk. You didn't say anything,” I replied.

After receiving an affirmative response from me, Don was relieved, and his expression improved slightly. "That's good, that's good."

He sounded like he had just survived a catastrophe

Our conversation ended at the same time we arrived at Salt City University.

The auditorium had been fully furnished. Since we all had our own jobs, we were arranged to be the first on stage. We could go back after the end. I was quite satisfied with this arrangement.
