Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 77

"What a coincidence, my girlfriend happens to be here. This will be easy, then. Look, I wasn't lying!" Xander said to Ginny with a smug look on his face.

Ginny looked me up and down before speaking with great certainty, "You're lying. How can a person like her be good enough for you? She's not your girlfriend a t all."

Was I that bad? I could not help but look at myself.

Indeed, because of my pregnancy, I was wearing flats and a loose cotton linen skirt. With my hair pulled up and no makeup on, I must look really old-fashioned and ugly.

"I'm not lying to you. Look at her face, she’s the woman in the picture I keep in my wallet." Xander no longer looked as helpless and anxious but was extremely smug at the moment.

Ginny then studied my face carefully for a very long time without saying a word. Then, she harrumphed and walked away with a sad expression.

This demon broke the heart of yet another girl. I felt a little guilty. Although I did not say a word from start to finish, I should not have let him drag me in to be used as a shield.

"Don't tease her if you're not interested in her," I said discontentedly while looking at him.

"I didn't. These women are the ones taking the initiative to cling to me. I want so badly to avoid them," Xander cried out, instantly feeling aggrieved.

He was right. Judging from his devilish good looks, he could attract a bunch of fans just by standing there without saying anything-not to mention the female celebrities who hung out with him every day. It would be hard not to fall in love with him.

I was silent. I suddenly remembered something and asked, "Why do you have my photo in your wallet?"

"Cough, cough... That’s not important. Wanda, since we're so fated that we're even bumping into each other when we're out to grab a cup of coffee, should w e go and watch a movie together?" he leaned over and asked excitedly.

"I’m not interested. You can go by yourself. I'm really tired, so I’ll be heading back now." Cecilia was probably going to wake up soon. I got up and got ready to leave.

"No, wait. Let's go together." He followed behind me and ran over. "Your exhaustion is all the more reason why you should try and relax. I'll carry you."

Having said that, he actually picked me up princessstyle and ran ahead at a fast speed.

"Put me down, Xander," I cried out in a panic.

He ignored me and ran even faster.

Worried about the child, I shouted, "Put me down. It’s dangerous! I'm pregnant!"
