Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 517

Before I could react, Theo leaned down and picked me up. He walked to the bed and put me down. "Be good and lie down.”

He turned around and left after saying that.

I was tremendously baffled. Did he not agree to divorce just now? Why would he suddenly say such things again?

A few minutes later, Miss Woods came in. When she saw me sitting dazedly on the bed, she sighed.

"Please hear me out, Miss Wanda. Arguments happen, especially between married couples. All you have to d o is solve the conflict. Getting a divorce is a big no-no."

Miss Woods had a more traditional mindset and thought that married couples should never get a divorce. No matter how hard life was, one should grit their teeth and go on with life. I could not bring myself to agree with her views, so I refused to listen to a word she said.

She opened her mouth to say something but I quickly intercepted, "You should head out first, Miss Woods. I'd like to spend some time alone."

I laid down on the bed and soon fell asleep after she went out.

I slept until midnight and woke up in a pitch-black room. I could tell that I was alone in the bedroom.

I switched on the lights and picked up the glass of water from the bedside table. I drank a few mouthfuls of water to quench my thirst.

Miss Woods had cleaned the room. The floor lamp that was kicked to the floor by Theo was gone. I would often wake up in the middle of the night and could not go back to sleep. Not wanting to think of upsetting thoughts, I grabbed my laptop and began working.

At seven o'clock in the morning, after processing the last of the documents, I looked out the window and realized that it was snowing.

I got out of bed and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the servants plowing the snow below.

As long as I was alive, life would go on as usual, no?

After a quick washing up, Miss Woods came over and said with a smile, "Miss Wanda, New Year’s Eve is approaching and it's time to buy some New Year's goods. I'm going out this afternoon to buy some stuff. D o you want to come along? It's bustling with energy out there. This will be a good time to go out for a walk and clear your head."

I shook my head. "No thanks. I still have things to handle at the office. I'm going out after breakfast."

Miss Woods returned to the kitchen and got to work. I sat on the sofa in the living room in a daze.

Heidi sent me a message saying that Jerome and Xander never went out after they returned to their residence. There were no more updates for me for the time being.
