Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 38

I held my forehead. I had completely forgotten about Cecilia. Fortunately, this woman still remembered to look for me after a night of fun.

Noticing that I did not say anything, Cecilia continued, "It is okay if the overbearing CEO persona did not suit your taste. When you have recovered, I will get a cooler guy for you."

“Thank you. You do not get me involved in this kind of thing in the future. I met Theo and Cindy at the nightclub last night.” I did not want to talk to her about this anymore, so I changed the topic.

"F*ck, you caught them cheating red-handed again? It must be an exciting scene. Tell me about it." Cecilia's tone instantly became excited.

"Do you think I have that right?" I held the phone with one hand and got up to pull open the curtains. The sun is high in the sky outside. It was another humid, sunny day.

"That is true. You cannot win against that phony b* tch. Forget it, let's not talk about her lest we get upset. When do you plan to leave?" Cecilia was always annoyed with Theo Grant and Cindy. She would get angry every time they were mentioned.

Just by hearing Cecelia’s question, I sensed a headache surfacing. I had not seen the divorce papers ever since Theo had taken them. He was unwilling to g o through the divorce procedures. Besides that, matters of the company had not been resolved yet.

"It will probably take a while. I have not settled the matters at hand yet." I felt a little helpless.

"It is fine. I will slowly sell off the milk tea shop. For the next few days, I will take some time off to go to Rosella City to have a look." Cecilia's tone was relaxed and nonchalant.

I felt a little sad and started choking up. "You have finally managed to make the milk tea shop business prosper. And now because of me, you have to sell it off. Are you sure you want to do that?"

She had given up too much for me.

"Didn’t I open the shop for you? Besides, I can always start afresh. There is nothing wrong about it."

Speaking of that, Cecilia suddenly became enthusiastic and said, "Likewise for you, you have made Nectarine Entertainment a success too. Have you thought about what you will do in the future?"

I was stunned for a while. I had not thought about it. B y the time I settled things here, my belly would have grown big already.

"I am quite tired after working hard in the past years.

Let's take a break for a while first."

"That is true. I will take care of you then," Cecilia said generously.
