Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 768

I pursed my lips and leaned toward the man's lips to plant a kiss. "How about this?"

Theo narrowed his eyes. "No way."

"What should I do to thank you, then?” I was a little dumbfounded.

He used to only request a kiss as a token of appreciation.

Theo's smirk looked a little meaningful. "You'll owe m e first. I'll let you know when I’ve figured it out."

Waiting for him to figure it out meant that nothing would happen, so I was relieved and said with a smile, "Sure, let's wait until you figure it out, then."

Theo was aware of my petty tricks but did not say much about it and took me downstairs to have something to eat.

After eating and returning to the bedroom, Theo picked me up and placed me on the bed. "Don’t go anywhere today and lay on the bed. Have a good rest."

I thought he was overly worried and smiled slightly." My belly really isn't cramping up. I don't need to lay in bed all day."

Insistence was written all over his face and I sighed

helplessly, choosing to listen to him.

Later, he went to the study. When he returned, there were several documents in his hands. After thinking about it, I thought he was busy enough with the company’s matters. If he had to work from home while taking care of Munchkin and me, then it would only be more tiring for him.

Thinking that I had brought him trouble, I inevitably blamed myself, so I stayed in bed the whole time reading. I tried my best not to have him place his whole focus on me.

After almost an hour, Theo left the room.

I thought he went to the study again, but he came back with a bowl of carrot soup in his hands and I froze.

He sat on the bed and looked warmly and tenderly at me. "It's not that hot anymore, you can just drink it straight away."

I did not really like the taste of carrots and said with a frown, "My belly isn't cramping up. I really don't need t o drink this."

Although I had stopped throwing up these days, every time I ate too much or ate something that I did not like, I found myself throwing up quite easily.

I did not like the taste of carrots and would throw up easily.

Theo knew that, hence he did not force me to drink it and merely placed it on the bedside table. "I'll put this here first. If your stomach is hurting, then try and drink some, okay?"

I nodded. "Don't worry about me. You should hurry up and continue with your work."

If he kept coming to check on me, then with all the work that was piling up, he might even have to work until midnight.

Theo kissed my forehead and got up to finish his work.

After lunch, I did not want to go back to the room to lay down and suggested to Theo to go to the study.

He agreed. Perhaps worried that it was unsafe for Munchkin to stay downstairs alone, he brought him to the study as well.

This was a newly-purchased villa by Theo.

Considering the fact that we had Munchkin now, the study was designed to be very spacious. There was a door behind the office chair and after pushing the door in, one would come to a children’s study. The books on the bookshelves were all carefully selected b y Theo, and they were all books suitable for Munchkin's age at the moment.

However, Munchkin merely looked at the pictures when he read.

He was only four, so I did not want to put too much pressure on him when it came to his education. Hence, I focused on cultivating his hobbies.

When he was a year older, I would then find out his favorite things to do and let him learn the skills accordingly.

Time passed slowly. Theo was bustling about, and Munchkin had fallen asleep while reading books. He was nestled on the sofa and sleeping soundly.

I looked at them and felt a great sense of happiness.

How nice would it be if life could remain this simple and blissful every day?
