Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 37

Back in the room, Zedd was openly gloating while Cindy was leaning against Theo.

Theo coldly glanced at me before looking away. There was no emotion on his face.

There were still nine glasses of wine left on the table.

I felt awful inside. I closed my eyes and picked up another glass, wanting to get this over and done. I just wanted to get out of there.

The wine was so strong that I choked. I could not stop my tears from flowing down my cheeks.

Perhaps I got used to the wine. After a while, I did not feel nauseous after downing the second glass of wine. I only felt a slight pain in my stomach, and I had cold sweat on my forehead.

Mason could tell that something was wrong with me. He held down the third glass of wine I had in my hand and shook his head gently.

I stubbornly struggled to free my glass from his hand and put it to my mouth, ready to pour it down my throat.

Suddenly, I felt my hand pressed down forcefully, and my body pulled into a familiar embrace.

"I will drink the rest on her behalf," Theo said and took the wine glass from my hand. He drank the wine quickly within seconds. He then proceeded with the next, and the next... Each glass of wine was drunk in one gulp. He finished all the wine.

Cindy was so angry that her eyes turned red. She stood up and left without saying anything.

Zedd looked at Theo with conflicted emotions before looking at me. Finally, he stomped his feet and followed Cindy out. 1

My stomach felt like it was on fire, and my head was dizzy. My lower abdomen was hurting terribly, and cold sweat beaded on my forehead.

"Let's quickly send her to the hospital." Mason looked anxious.

Theo picked me up and rushed out of the nightclub. After he placed me in the back seat, my stomach felt worse that I curled up into a ball.

He frowned and gently rubbed his large hands on my stomach for a while. "Bear with it for now. The hospital is just ahead." 1

I was shocked when I realized that Theo was referring to the central hospital not far from the nightclub. I panicked and held his hand while enduring the pain." Let's go to Doctor Lynch's hospital."

His face turned serious, clearly displeased.
