Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 34

"Now?" I did not know what the person on the other end of the line said, but Theo turned to look at me.

"I will get off here!" I guessed that Cindy was looking for him. I quickly signaled him to stop the car.

He did not say anything and just parked the car by the roadside. "Zedd and the rest are looking for me. Take a taxi home first."

He said this out of the blue.

Was he explaining this to me?

My hand paused on the car door, then I nodded and closed it.

Feeling flustered, I did not go straight home. Instead, I took out my phone and called Cecilia. “I am at Humanitarian Square. Want to come over?"

"You damned woman. It has only been a few days since your miscarriage. Why did you not just lie down at home? Why did you go to Humanitarian Square?" Cecilia snapped.

"If you do not come now, I am going to hang up," I said deliberately, afraid that she would not stop nagging.

"Stand there and do not move." As expected, Cecelia relented and hung up the phone.

She arrived in less than ten minutes. I was sitting on the steps with my chin propped on my hand, watching a group of kids skate.

"Why did you come here all of a sudden?" Cecilia handed me some hot milk tea.

I took the cup and took a sip. "I am bored!"

She held her forehead. "My dear Miss, can you understand something? You are a patient in recovery now. What if you fall sick from the cold wind?"

Knowing that she was doing this for my good, I reached out and pulled her to sit with me. "It is boring.

Sit with me for a while.”

Cecilia did not say anything. She just sat beside me and looked at the surroundings. My thoughts drifted away. Did Theo realize that I was still pregnant today?

If he did, why did he not lash out?

If not, he seemed to be deep in thought when Madam Hendrick spoke.

"This is so boring. Come on, I will take you out to relieve your boredom.” Just as my mind was wandering, Cecilia pulled me toward the city.

"Where to?" I asked as we walked.

"I am taking you to expand your horizons and get rid o f boredom." Cecilia pulled me mysteriously toward a nightclub called 'Live Colors’.
