Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 512

"I'm not hungry," Theo said in a cold voice.

I tried to persuade him but he trotted upstairs, so I could only swallow my words back in.

Miss Woods followed him upstairs before coming down again shortly. She trotted up to me and whispered under her breath, "Mr. Grant has returned t o his bedroom. Why don't you take the dishes upstairs to coax him? Cold wars are taboo between couples, and getting mad at each other can affect your relationship."

I pursed my lips and mulled it over before nodding. “G o and prepare the dishes, then. I'll bring them to him."

Ms. Woods nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'll do that right away. Give me a moment, Miss Wanda."

When she was done preparing the dishes, I held the tray as she helped me upstairs.

When we came to the bedroom door, she pushed the door open and I walked in to see Theo smoking on the balcony. I helplessly sighed.

Theo would always smoke whenever something was bothering him. I was unsure if coaxing him was going to be easy this time.

The door behind me closed and I slowly walked to the

desk where I set down the tray. I then walked toward the balcony and softly said, "I brought the dishes upstairs. Want to have some?"

As soon as I approached Theo, I realized that his entire body was exuding an ice-cold aura. It gave me goosebumps.

Theo put out his cigarette and turned around, looking indifferently at me.

Although I could not sense anything from his eyes and face, I could tell that he was very angry, furious even.

I cast my eyes down and tried my best to sound soft and tender. "You've been working the whole day, so I'm sure you haven't eaten a proper meal. It won’t be good for your health if you skip dinner. Why don’t you take a bite?"

I hoped his mood would be lifted seeing that I was putting in a lot of effort to coax him, which would make it much easier to solve the problem later.

"I heard what you said to Tyler on the phone yesterday, Wanda Lane."

Subtle veins were bulging from Theo’s forehead. "I went to retrieve the roadside surveillance footage of the location where you had your car accident."
