Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 806

At this point, she looked up at me and smiled while saying, "I know you may not want to hear me say these things, but even after being here for so long, I still haven’t made a friend. There's no one I can tell these things to, and I've been keeping all these in my heart. I feel like I'm going to explode."

I pursed my lips. "You can tell me."

I was feeling guilty about Matthew. I hoped he and Liz could be together. If Liz could have the courage to love Matthew again after pouring her feelings out to me, then I was willing to listen to everything she had to say.

Liz held my hand that was resting on the table and said eagerly, "I really want to tell you how much he needs you. You’re the salvation of his soul. I even hope you can stay by his side so he'll be less in pain."

I fell silent. I had no way of answering her.

"The short few months you spent together have been o n his mind until today. I didn't understand it at first, but now I do. I guess everyone will meet that person whom they're very sure of at just a single glance. I once saw your photos on his laptop. You may not know this, but when you were at your lowest point in life, you often daydreamed alone. He would take

photos of you on his camera. There were more than a thousand photos of you. He loves you. He fell in love with you a long time ago."

I was just about to say something when I saw Keith standing at the entrance of the cafe.

He walked up to me and stood still, saying, "Mrs.

Grant, Mr. Grant says that it’s cold outside and you shouldn’t stay here for too long because your body can't take it."

Clearly, the bodyguards had spoken to Theo on the phone. He knew who I was meeting up with. He did not want Liz and me to meet.

I nodded and looked at Liz. "We may have to meet up some other time."

She pursed her lips, and her gaze fell on Keith. "Theo's way of loving you is by confining and restricting you?"

I merely smiled and made no reply.

I left the cafe with Keith and got in the car.

Keith looked at me through the rearview mirror several times. I sensed that he had something to say, s o I said faintly, "Get straight to the point."

"Mr. Grant is in the hospital, Mrs. Grant."

In other words, he wanted me to go over and visit him.

I pursed my lips and looked down at the flash drive that Liz had stuffed into my hand when I got up just now.
