Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 846

There were no fresh flowers at home, and cauliflower had the word 'flower' in it, so at least that accounted for something.

Keith looked at the cauliflower in his hands, then at m e. He suppressed his slightly twitching lips and hesitated for a very long time before leaving with the cauliflower.

After he left, I went to the cloakroom to change my clothes and quickly packed my things before going out of the door.

Susan and I agreed to meet at one o'clock in the afternoon, but it was only half-past 12 now, so there was still half an hour left until the appointed time. Hence, I went to a nearby cafe and waited there.

As I had appeared on TV several times, the waitress recognized me when she came forward and looked surprised. Fortunately, she was polite and merely smiled at me. "What would you like to drink, Ma'am?"

I smiled slightly. "The person I'm waiting for isn't here yet. Please give me a glass of water first."

The waitress nodded with a smile before turning around and leaving.

She poured a glass of water and put it in front of me,

saying softly, "You can get me any time if you need any help.”

I nodded. "Thank you."

She returned to the bar counter and started speaking t o her colleague in hushed voices. The two looked at m e from time to time. They were clearly talking about m e.

I drew back my gaze, picked up the glass, and looked out the window.

So far, most of the trending searches were about Grant Corporation and Zimmer Corporations. I would sometimes catch a glimpse, but I only took a look. It was not like I could not ask Theo anything about it.

Matthew took on a more radical approach after his parents' passing. Resentment and pain had grown infinitely in his heart and it was impossible to stop. I had no right to blame him and merely hoped he could one day let it all go.

As for Cindy, I did not ask Theo which option she chose. I knew that no matter which path she took, she and Theo would no longer have anything to do with each other.

There were some people who would sooner or later turn into strangers.

When I finished the water in the glass, it was one o'clock but Susan had not given me a call yet.
