Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 39

I had no choice but to put some soup in my mouth. Before I could drink it, the fishy stench made my stomach churn. I quickly ran to the bathroom and threw up.

"Why are you still throwing up?" He looked at me suspiciously.

"It's probably because I drank yesterday. Plus, I'm not used to the smell of mullets since I was young. So..." I explained with guilt in the tone of my voice.

His body stiffened up, perhaps recalling last night's incident.

I thought about how this was the first time Theo had cooked for me, so I closed my eyes and forced myself t o drink up the fish soup.

"You do not have to drink it if you do not want to. I will make another one for you." He reached out to take the soup bowl and pour the pot of soup into the sink.

"I am sorry." I felt guilty as I knew that he had meant well.

"It is my fault. I did not know you did not like fish soup.” His face was placid. His voice was flat and apologetic.

I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. After what

happened yesterday and today, he didn't seem as cold as he used to be.

He went back into the kitchen and made a bowl of porridge. "Your stomach is probably feeling uncomfortable after yesterday's drinking," he said softly. "Eat this."

He then looked at me and said indifferently, "You can rest at home today. I will take care of the company. You have caused the company to lose a lot of money. Think about how you can make up for it!"

He turned around and left after speaking.

His attitude toward me had indeed changed. When did it start to change? Was it after he found out that I was pregnant or after I aborted the child?

I was lost in my thoughts, even when Mason arrived.

He looked at the porridge in front of me and frowned." The child is growing. You should eat something nutritious or the baby’s development will be affected."

It was only then that I came back to my senses and got up quickly. "Doctor Lynch, you're here."
