Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2657

As I made my way back, the wind blowing against my face woke me up.

It had indeed been wrong of me to arrange a blind date without Marius' permission, thus angering him.

His words lingered in my mind. "It seems that you really don't understand what I want.”

I truly… did not seem to know what he wanted.

Lowering my head, I stared at my feet as I walked and fell into deep thought.

Despite knowing him for so long, I knew nothing about him.

I always felt a sense of debt toward him.

My feet came to a standstill, my mind in shambles. Could I still have a friend like Marius?

Sighing, I continued on. I passed an alley where I heard the sound of fighting. I had not wanted to stop, but then I heard a familiar voice.

"Did Walter Waters send you?"

This voice. Neil?

I took a few steps forward and heard it even clearer. "What about it? You’re the one who offended President Waters. I’ll make sure to beat you up good today!”

"I called the police. If you don't want to get caught, leave quickly.”

It really was Neil.

"Don't try to scare us. You ain’t escaping this beating today!”

I recalled having seen a few traffic police at the front just now and quickly turned back. Sure enough, there they were.

“Excuse me, there’s a man getting beaten up in the alleyway up front. Can you help?”

“Let’s go.”

I led the policemen to the alleyway. Neil had already taken a few punches.

“Hey! What are you guys up to?!”

I ran to Neil’s side. “Are you alright?”
