Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 271

As expected of Quinn, very quickly after less than a minute of grief, she recomposed herself and went back to looking elegant and dignified again.

However, something was still off with her countenance, and her smile looked forced.

"Let's go home, Quinn!" I suggested, knowing she was only pretending to look calm.

"Okay." She got up and walked out, her back tall and straight, though her footsteps were a little heavy. This news had come as a huge blow for her. No matter how hard she tried to pretend to be calm, it was not enough to hide the grief and disappointment within her.

Before we even managed to walk out the door, we were stopped in our tracks by the sight of a certain two people walking toward us.

Nancy and Matthew!

The two of them, walking one in front of the other, were coming into the shop and bumped right into us.

When Nancy saw us, her smile immediately disappeared and she turned around to say to Matthew, "Son, let's go somewhere else. What rotten luck!"

She sounded both bitter and harsh.

Looking at his phone, Matthew looked up and swept his gaze across me and Quinn, frowning and nodding. "Sure!”

The two were just about to turn around when the waiter went up to them and asked, “Are you here to have a cup of coffee? This way, please!"

Nancy looked Quinn over with a disgusted expression and said in a high-pitched voice, "I was here to have a cup of coffee, but your coffee shop is so low-class for serving just about any Tom, Dick, and Harry who walks in. This place has been tainted, and I'm no longer interested in drinking coffee here."

After saying that, she gave Quinn a purposeful stare, her intentions obvious.

She was so loud that she not only left the waiters stunned, but also turned the heads of the people around her. Some said in displeasure, "Who is this woman? She has a filthy mouth!"
