Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 454

"Do you know what kind of life I want?" Matthew raised his voice. "I want a life with you in it."

It was clearly a blatant confession, and for a moment, I did not know what to do. "Matthew, you mustn't say such things."

I did not know how to respond to his feelings, and him expressing his feelings to me so bluntly only stressed me out.

"I could’ve endured being alone if I hadn't seen the light." Matthew grabbed my hand. "You can't make me lose the light after showing it to me.”

I was breathless for a moment and did not know what to say for a long time.

Before I answered him, the light in Matthew's eyes dimmed. "I understand."

He hugged me tightly. "I don't want you to feel troubled, so I won't make you feel troubled again until you and Theo separate."

"That day will never come." An icy voice came from behind me and I could tell that it belonged to Theo.

Matthew let go of me and I turned around to walk to Theo's side. It was my way of showing where I stood i n all this.

"Good girl." Theo nodded in satisfaction and yanked off the coat draped over me. He threw it on the floor and took me into his arms. "If there's nothing else, Mr. Zimmer, I'll be taking my wife back to bed. It's getting late and you should get some rest too."

Matthew narrowed his eyes, and his face looked extremely cold.

Theo carried me back to the room and left after he threw me on the bed.

After a while, he came back with a steaming cup of water. I stared at him blankly because I could not tell whether he was angry or not.

From the looks of his grumpy face, I could tell that he was angry. However, even though he was angry, I thought that it was very cute of him to pour me a cup o f hot water to warm me up.
