Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 502

After a pause, she continued, "You think you'll be spared just because everyone is covering for you?

Your fingerprints are all over the knife. I'll take it to the police station and report it myself. I'll also hire the best attorney out there and take this to court."

As soon as she finished her sentence, Theo stabbed himself in the abdomen with the fruit knife.

Everyone was stunned by his unexpected action. Cindy looked at him with a face filled with horror. "W-What are you doing, T-Theowy?"

"I just have to stab myself, right?" Theo's complexion turned pale. "Wanda is my wife. I should bear the consequences for her no matter what they are. I'll pay back for what she has done."

I rushed over to check his abdomen and said with reddened eyes, "I chose to do it. I should be the one to bear the consequences no matter what they are. I don't need you to do this for me. Do you think I'll be moved just because you did this?"

After a pause, I continued, "I did something wrong and should be punished. I'll turn myself in at the police station.”

I turned around to leave after saying that.

Mason stopped me in my tracks, and I was displeased. "Stop it." Theo turned around and grabbed my arm. "She's more important to you than me, huh?" Cindy asked in a quivering voice.

Theo turned around to look at her. "She's my wife. There’s no one in this world who's more important to me than her."

"Y-You..." Cindy squeezed her eyes shut. "Get out. I want all of you to get out."

Theo refused to leave because his purpose had not been achieved. "Promise me that you’ll not continue to pursue this matter. If you're still mad, then I'll stab myself one more time. Tell me where I should stab."

Having said that, he reached out to pull out the fruit knife stuck in his abdomen.

This was bound to result in hemorrhage. Cindy widened her eyes in horror. "You leave me no choice."

Theo was considered to have assented tacitly by not responding.

She took a deep breath and looked at Theo with disappointment and sadness in her eyes. "Okay, I promise to not pursue this matter anymore."

He was then pushed into the operating room. I sat dazedly on the bench in the corridor, not hearing a word Mason was saying when he walked over to talk t o me.

My mind was still in a mess after what had happened just now.

Petra and Grayson came to the operating theater. I was brought back to my senses by Petra's high heels clicking on the floor.

I looked up at her.

"You don't have to be too worried." Her tone was particularly gentle.

There was a look of skepticism in my eyes. "I'm not in the mood to argue with you. You can retaliate against me however you want. You don't have to inform me in advance."

Petra said anxiously, "We’re not trying to argue with you, I'm just worr-"

"That's enough." Grayson voiced out to interrupt her." This is now a thing in the past and there's no need to bring it up again. It's late. I'll take you to Cindy's ward t o rest."

After they left, Mason blandly said, "They won’t give you trouble anymore after this."

I pursed my lips but did not say a word.

I was not concerned if they would retaliate against me and give me trouble. I was not afraid either. Like I mentioned, I was willing to bear the consequences of my sins.

“His wound isn't deep, right?" I reconfirmed.

Mason sighed helplessly. "It isn't. He has also taken care of his body well, so a wound like that will heal in no time at all."
