Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 333

"Wanda, what's wrong with you?” It was Matthew on the other side of the phone. He could hear that I sounded unusual and was anxious about it.

"I'm fine." I closed my eyes. "I'm just sleepy."

Matthew immediately let out a sigh of relief. "Then get some sleep after dinner. I've asked the caretaker to send it over. It should be there soon."

I truly appreciated his attentiveness and care, but they made me feel burdened. "Matthew, can you stop treating me so kindly? What if I can't repay your kindness?"

Matthew chuckled. He chose not to answer this question. "Stop thinking nonsense. Remember to take your medicine after your dinner, then get some sleep. I'm going to attend a meeting now. That's all.”

"Alright." I sighed helplessly.

Not long after I hung up the phone, the caretaker arrived to send the dinner over.

It was a shame to let the food go to waste. Even though I had no appetite, I forced myself to eat some o f it. After dinner, I took the anti-depressant pills. Then, I went back to the bedroom and lay down on my bed. I soon fell asleep.

It was unknown how long I had been asleep but the room was dark when I woke up. I heard the heavy rain outside. I wrapped myself tightly in the blanket.

Fortunately, there was no thunder. Otherwise, I was afraid that I would have another episode. I did not want to hallucinate and run out of the house again.

I was unable to fall asleep again. I switched on the lights at the bedside and took my phone out.

While I was scrolling Facebook, I received a text message. 1

[Are you asleep?]

It was a text message from Theo. I felt a sudden irritation in my heart.
