Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 827

Susan sighed softly. "The spectator sees more of the game. Mr. Grant has been getting so many calls and didn't answer any of them but you didn't even ask him anything. You must be fighting."

Was this considered fighting?

I shook my head. "I don't know if we’re fighting or not, but we’re both somewhat uncomfortable with each other right now."

Susan helplessly smiled and said no more.

After talking to Susan for a while more, Theo and I said our goodbyes after seeing that it was getting late.

After getting into the car and buckling up our seatbelts, I said, "Let's go to the hospital."

"Go to the hospital?" Theo frowned. "Are you feeling unwell?"

I pursed my lips. "We'll go and get the procedure reversed."

Delaying it for too long would not be good for him. As long as he did not reverse the procedure, I would keep thinking about it.

He was a little stunned but did not say much about it and drove to the hospital.

When we arrived at the hospital, Theo learned that I had made an appointment beforehand.

He looked conflicted but did not say anything to me.

When he entered the operating theater, Keith gave him a call.

I was not supposed to answer his call without his permission, but because Keith had called too many times, I was worried that it was about an urgent matter. Hence, I answered it.

Before I could say anything, Keith said first, "Mr. Grant, someone is already investigating Zimmer Corporations. If everything goes according to plan, Zimmer Corporations will be temporarily closed for a period of time. Do you still think it is necessary to release the video of Mr. Zimmer’s mother to the media?"

I frowned. "What video?"

"Mrs. Grant?" Keith was a little shocked. He probably did not expect me to be the one to answer the phone.

"What video?" I repeated.

Keith fell silent for a long time. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Grant."

I understood if he could not tell me, but there were things that I must say to him. "He's not able to come to the phone for a while, that's why I’m answering it."

After a pause, I continued, "Keith, I’m in no position to interfere with Theo and Matthew’s battle. But you've been with Theo for so many years and have a say when it comes to work. You know what the repercussions are if he drives Zimmer Corporations to the edge. Abolishing a business is taboo among businessmen. He didn't rely on his own abilities to achieve what he has achieved in Whaldorf City today. There's also the approval of the presidents from various industries."

It was normal to have arguments in the business world, but everybody knew that being too ruthless would raise concerns with one's allies for fear that they would be treated the same way one day. Hence, n o one was brave enough to destroy one another.

Keith fell silent for a moment and said, "Thanks for the reminder, Mrs. Grant."

After hanging up the phone, I sat on the chair in the corridor in a daze.

Theo's anger began during Cassey's wedding banquet. What exactly did Matthew tell him to infuriate him so much that he was bent on destroying him?

However, I could not find the answer to this question n o matter how hard I thought.

When the procedure was done, Theo came out of the operating room with a sullen face. It was hard to read his emotions.

He let out a smile when he saw me.

I held his hand and asked, "Does it hurt?"

He smiled. "What will you do if I say it does?"

I smiled and planted a kiss on his lips. "Will this do?"

The doctor walked over and said, "Lome back for a check-up in a week. Try and hold back any kind of sexual activities for a month as it'll affect the recovery process."

I nodded at him. "Thank you, Doctor."
