Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 282

I was a little lost in thought and could not help but recall Cindy's words when she said that my child would also be her child. Now that she had her own child, what were her words supposed to mean?

After getting in the car, I kept thinking about this incident and felt suffocated inside. I looked at Miss Zuri and asked, "How do you know Miss Reed?”

Miss Zuri froze, then asked, "You mean Miss Louis? I just got to know her. I used to work in the Louises so when Miss Louis came home, I was put in charge of taking care of her.

"Maybe," I smiled and spoke tentatively, "You mentioned that Miss Cindy is getting engaged. Who's her fiance?"

She shook her head. "I don't know either. Speaking of that, it's really strange. Judging from Miss Louis’ status and identity, her fiance must be a very famous person but his identity has been kept a secret. All I heard is that he’s someone nobody has ever seen. You know that a lot of things we servants hear are just hearsay, so we’re not sure about the details either."
