Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 452

"Alright." Theo picked me up and spun me around." Then we'll have surf and turf tonight."

After that, we went downstairs. Quinn knew that we were going out for dinner and did not say anything. She just reminded us to be careful when we drove because of the slippery roads.

Theo hugged me after I got in the car and fastened my seat belt. "I didn't come back last night because I slept in the office. I thought about you all night long and couldn't even sleep. I even thought about driving home a few times."

Any woman would like to hear that, and I was the same. I looked up to see the love in his eyes and my heartbeat sped up a little. "Then why didn’t you?"

"It was after midnight when I finished my work." Theo massaged my neck. "And I was afraid I couldn't bring myself to leave you in the morning."

I felt that he was getting better at sweet-talking. I wondered where he learned to do that.

"When I woke up last night to see that you weren’t back, I felt empty. I know that you've been very busy recently and you were probably sleeping in the office because you worked till late. But I'm worried about

your lack of sleep and the stress you endure during the daytime. You might fall sick," I whispered to him because I felt a little embarrassed toward the end.

When Theo saw that I was slightly flushed, he teased and asked, "If you feel sorry for me, you should serve m e obediently, okay?"

The corners of my mouth twitched. "Is that all you think about?"

Theo laughed and nodded.

F*ck me...

This jerk was a master at ruining the mood!

Theo drove the car to the entrance of a surf and turf restaurant we often went to. He stopped in front of the restaurant so that I could get down first as there were many people in the restaurant and the place was full.

Theo and I then went to a private room. I did not feel like picking stuff from the menu, so I left the important task to him.

After ordering, he asked, "It's almost New Year's Eve. Carlson invited you to go to his place for New Year's Eve. Do you want to go?"
