Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 818

Theo held my hand and said a little powerlessly," You're spoiling him."

"Say that to yourself." I was a little unconvinced.

He was much better at spoiling the child compared to me.

After taking a few more bites and not being able to eat anymore, I put down the fork and knife. I looked around me but did not see a certain someone, so I asked Theo softly, "Why isn't Quinn here?"

It had been a while since Quinn had appeared in front of me to make a fuss. I did not know if she was holding back a big move or if she had accepted the outcome.

In any case, it was making me a little panicky inside.

Theo shook his head. "I don't know."

After saying that, someone came over to give him a toast. He raised his glass and drank all the wine in it.

After putting down the wine glass, he saw me looking unkindly at him and laughed. "This bit of wine is nothing.”

Having said that, he poured himself another glass to drink.

Since I came back, he would never drink unless for social needs. At this moment, he was still drinking even though no one had come over to give him a toast. He was probably in a bad mood.

Was it because of the company’s business?

It seemed like things in Grant Corporation were really hectic. He could have chosen to not come to the wedding today, but he came because of me. There must be a lot of work piling up now.

I felt sorry and said, "It’s been a long day and you must be tired. Let’s go home.”

Theo nodded. "Okay."

When we stood up, I held his hand and felt that it was slightly cold to the touch. I frowned. "Why is your hand so cold?"

My impression of him was that his hands were always warm to the touch and could send warmth to someone.

Theo was stunned for a moment and turned sideways t o look at me. "I’m okay."

His breath smelled strongly of alcohol. He had too much to drink.

When I brought him out of the hotel, the driver drove over. After getting into the car, he leaned his head on my shoulder and closed his eyes.

He was too quiet, so quiet that it was very unlike him.

Halfway, he suddenly said, “Stop the car!"

The driver was a little confused and pulled the car over. Theo quickly got out of the car and squatted on the side of the road to throw up.

I got out of the car to buy water and saw him leaning i n the car seat with his eyes closed when I came back.

"Here." I handed the water bottle to him.

He opened his eyes slightly and took the bottle of water to rinse his mouth.

The car started moving again. He leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes.

When we arrived at the villa, the driver helped him upstairs while I went to the kitchen to prepare a glass of honey water for him.

However, before I got to the kitchen, I heard Theo throwing up upstairs.

I turned around and ran upstairs. I saw Theo throwing up at the door of the bedroom and felt extremely heartbroken.

He looked extremely haggard. The driver looked helplessly at me. "Should we get a doctor, Ma’am?"

I shook my head and walked over to help Theo into the room.

I put him on the bed and went to clean up the doorway of the room.

When I was done cleaning up, I saw Theo with his eyes squeezed shut. He was lying quietly on the bed. I

walked over to call out to him softly, "Theo."

He was not asleep yet and responded to me.

I bent down to remove his suit jacket for him. "Wash u p before you sleep.”

Theo was very obedient when he was drunk. He got u p from the bed and staggered to the bathroom.

I found a pair of pajamas and a bath towel. I followed him in.
