Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2639

That evening, recalling the incident in the mountains made Nina sad, and she ended up drinking a lot. I could not stop her and could only call Jason and ask him to come over to take her home.

After I was done talking to Jason, I looked back at Nina who was lying on the sofa while shaking my head slowly.

Shannon came back from dancing and saw Nina who was now drunk. "How much did she drink?"

"Not much. It doesn’t look like she holds her alcohol well." I smiled.

Her mood took a dive when she mentioned the mountains, and so did mine.

Despite it having been a long time, I still feel terrified when I thought about it.

If it had not been for the honest Frank Fulmer, it would have been a while before Theo found us.

We took Nina out of the bar. Jason arrived just in time, and when he saw Nina drunk, he frowned slightly. "Why did you drink so much?"

Handing Nina to him, I said, “She ended up drinking a bit more when she recalled some sad things. Hurry up and take her home."

“Thank you.”

Starting the car, Jason drove away with Nina while Shannon and I also bid each other farewell and went home.

When I got home, Theo was already in the room.

He looked up at the time and then smiled at me, “You’ve been coming home late recently, Madam. You smell like alcohol too.”

“I had a proper reason. We were celebrating Nina getting married today.”

I went up and hugged Theo, feeling safe in his arms.

Theo was probably a little surprised at my sudden proactiveness before hugging me back. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Nina brought up something from the past today, and it reminded me of how dangerous it was,” I said softly as I felt his heartbeat.
