Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 264

When a middle-aged man wearing a suit and waiting i n the arrivals hall saw us come out, he immediately came forth and took Theo's suitcase from him as he said respectfully, "Mr. Grant, the car is waiting outside."

Theo nodded and handed the suitcase to him before h e took my hand and said, "This is my cousin's butler. You can call him Mr. West."

I nodded to pay my respects before getting into the car with Theo. After journeying for a while, I rested my head against Theo’s shoulder and fell asleep.

Before I fell asleep, I thought about what I should say when I met Theo's cousin.

However, I fell into such a deep sleep that I did not even know how I ended up back in my bedroom.

When I woke up the next morning, I opened my eyes t o realize I was in my bedroom in Salt City. It shocked me. Hadn't I gone to Whaldorf City with Theo last night? Why was I still at home?!

Sitting up in shock, I rubbed my eyes in disbelief. What I saw in front of me did not change.

Could I be dreaming? I pinched myself hard.

Ouch! I was not dreaming.

I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, which also looked identical, up to the very way I arranged my toiletries. I had a vague sense that something was not quite right, but I could not place my finger on it.

I was still deep in thought when Theo pushed the door open and came in. He smiled and asked, "You’re awake?"

"Theo, why are we back home?" I hurriedly grabbed his shirt and asked frantically.

"Do you want to take a closer look?" His lips curled upwards into a smile.

I took another careful look around the room and finally realized what was off about it. Although everything in the room was arranged the same way they were back home, they were all new and unopened.

"What?" I stared at him in confusion.

"I was worried you would not be used to a strange environment, so I got someone to decorate the room to look like the one in Salt City," he said loftily.

My heart skipped a beat. I had not expected him to be so thoughtful and even take something like this into account.
