Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 279

After lying down for a while, I still could not sleep, so I said, "I can’t sleep, Theo. My body’s aching all over. Can you give me a massage?”

"Where do you feel uncomfortable? Here?"

"Yes, my arms and thighs too. Also, my...

"I still can't sleep, Theo. Why don't you sing me a song?"

"Okay, I'll sing you a lullaby!”

"You know how to sing that?"

"Mm, I learned it some time ago so I would know how t o coax the baby in the future."

While listening to his deep and low humming, I finally fell asleep in his arms with a smile.

When I woke up the next morning, my arm was sore. It was probably because I was sleeping too soundly that I forgot to turn around and switch sides. Lately, to avoid soreness from sleeping in the same posture for too long, I would frequently turn over in my sleep.

As it was too late last night, I slept a little too soundly and forgot to turn over. Hence, half of my body was aching a lot at the moment.

I lay flat on the bed for a very long time before finally

feeling better. Theo was no longer in the room. Looking at the time, it was nearly nine in the morning. Although I was very tired, I still got up, washed up, and went downstairs.

When Miss Zuri saw me coming downstairs, she immediately served the breakfast she had prepared.

"Mr. Grant went out to handle some business, Mrs.

Grant. He ordered me to make breakfast and wait for you to wake up before he left. Come and have something to eat."

I nodded gently and drank a glass of milk. I forced myself to eat some eggs as well. Having absolutely no appetite, I then got up and went to the garden to take a stroll.

The sky was clear after the rain. The morning sun was not particularly glaring, so I sat on a lounger in the pavilion to soak up the sun. In no time at all, I dozed off.
