Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 273

Matthew stood by the sidelines not saying a word as his countenance grew even darker and grimmer. After glancing coldly at Quinn, he turned around to look at the bystanders and roared. "Are you done watching the fun now?”

His countenance had already been cold and stern to begin with, so when coupled with his low and deep voice, an extremely intimidating aura exuded from his very being. As soon as he said those words, none of the bystanders dared to speak another word. They quickly buried their heads to pretend to sip at their drinks.

I looked at Nancy and could not help but think about how sad and pathetic she looked. She had gotten divorced at middle age and had nothing left in her life. All she did was vent her emotions to others, seemingly unable to find her purpose for life.

What was there to quibble over with someone like her? Thus, I said, "Let's go, Quinn."

She looked at Matthew and nodded, taking me out of the coffee shop.

We were both lost in our own thoughts on the way home, neither of us speaking.

Soon, I arrived back at the villa. Quinn ordered the driver to send me into the house, saying to me, "You must be exhausted. Go back and have a good rest. I'll come and take you out some other day.”

I nodded and looked at her. "Come in and have dinner before you go back."

She shook her head and said with a smile, "I'll pass. Marcus will be waiting on me to get back, and he won't eat properly if I don't go home. I have to go back and keep an eye on him."

Stunned, I then watched her leave with a smile.

As I watched her car pull away, I grew slightly confused. I had initially thought she married Marcus for a specific goal-just like what everybody was saying. However, it now seemed like that was not the case.

There were many kinds of relationships out there, so what kind was theirs?

As I pondered the question, I received a text message. When I raised my phone up to take a look, I saw that it was from Cecilia.

[Cecilia: How are things on your side? Do you like the new environment?]

I replied: [It’s alright. Theo is around, so it isn’t that strange. What about you? How are you feeling?] [Cecilia: I'm alright. I went back to the countryside today.]
