Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 503

"Wait until I get discharged and go home." Theo kissed my forehead.

I pursed my lips and raised my head, saying, "Let's not wait till then. Let's do it now."

I did not expect myself to be so passionate one day. Perhaps I was moved by the fact that he stabbed himself with a knife and that gave me a great sense of security.

Theo thought I was joking and simply laughed, not taking me seriously.

I kissed his lips with a frown, then moved to his neck.

Theo sighed helplessly. "Do you feel bad about it?"

I nodded. "Don’t do hurtful things like that to yourself anymore, Theo. I'm not worth it."

Everyone deserved to be punished for the sins they committed. I should be paying the price for my actions, not someone else.

Why should someone else have to bear the cost of the mistake I made?

"It doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not."

Theo stroked my head and spoke with a tender tone.

"I only know that you're my wife and I’m your husband. I'm the family's pillar of strength and an umbrella. I should be protecting you. I’ll also pay for all your actions."

Tears welled up in my eyes and I had a strong urge to cry.

Theo then consoled me for a while more before he fell asleep.

I disliked the hospital, so I did not manage to sleep well and woke up a few times at night.

I would wake up with a start from a bad dream. I would dream of Theo lying on the ground covered in blood, giving me his last words. It was just like Matthew before he died.
