Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 298

Theo laughed after hearing this and reached out to pinch my face. Stop pretending to look pitiful.”

I snorted but did not say anything else.

The car drove back to the villa, and I was so drowsy that I could no longer open my eyes. Theo carried me upstairs and I fell into a deep sleep the moment my head touched the pillow.

The next morning when I woke up, Theo was not in the bedroom. Thinking that he might have gone out, I tried to find my phone to call him.

However, I searched for a very long time but still could not find it. After thinking about it, I figured I might have left it in the Zimmers' villa.

After washing up and going downstairs, I planned to borrow Miss Zuri's phone. However, I saw Miss Woods walking out of the kitchen. I widened my eyes in surprise. "What are you doing here, Miss Woods?!"

"Of course it’s because Mr. Grant is worried that I can't take good care of you alone,” Miss Zuri replied first.

"I see your belly is getting much bigger now, Mrs. Grant." Miss Woods walked over with a smile and asked, "Have you checked the gender? Is the baby a boy or a girl?"

At this moment, the smell of chicken soup wafted out of the kitchen. I stroked my belly. "I'm not going to check it. This baby will be precious to me regardless if it's a boy or a girl. Are you making chicken soup in the kitchen? Just the smell of it is making me so hungry!"

Miss Zuri patted her thigh and said with a smile, "Yes, I'll go serve it right now."

She soon came out holding a bowl of chicken soup.

I drank half a bowl and looked at Miss Woods. "What time did Theo go out?"

"Mr. Grant went out at six in the morning. It looked like it was for something urgent.”

I nodded but said no more.

Theo had been very busy lately. He was probably hoping to gain a firm foothold in Whaldorf City as soon as possible and open up the international market.

I knew how ambitious he was, and logically speaking, I should be helping him at this moment instead of asking him to take the time out to keep me company.

If it were Cindy, would things be easier for Theo?
