Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 850

I leaned against him just like that, and he did not move either. It was a warm and peaceful atmosphere.

There was a knock on the door and Theo said mildly, " Come in."

I wanted to pull away from him but he wrapped his arm around my shoulders to keep me from moving.

Left with no other choice and to avoid feeling awkward, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

The woman who came in was the same woman who came to see Theo earlier. She walked over and handed Theo a file. She then said in a sweet voice, "Mr. Grant, the design is out. Can you take a look at it and see what needs to be improved?"

Theo moved so lightly that before I could feel it, he was already flipping the pages. "I’m not an expert in this area. If you and the other engineers think it’s fine, you can start manufacturing it."

"Okay, sure," the woman said.

After she walked out of the office, the man's deep and attractive voice rang out in my ears. I could vaguely detect a hint of laughter. "You're pretty good at pretending to sleep."

Did I need to pretend to sleep if he had not stopped me from moving?

I opened my eyes and looked up at his chin. "Zimmer Corporations has long entered the artificial intelligence machinery market. Now that you've hired such a talent to develop artificial intelligence technology, are you planning to acquire Zimmer Corporations when the time is right and develop it vigorously?"

He raised his eyebrows and pulled the blanket that had slipped to my lap to my body. "Not entirely."

After a pause, he asked, "How did you know?"

I shrugged, kind enough not to expose Keith. "I read the file just now."

However, Keith seemed to have already reported everything to Theo about what I had asked him earlier. He pinched my chin and said with a faint smile, "Her name isn’t written in the file."

I helplessly smiled. "It's inevitably unsettling for me to see such a stunning lady around you."

He smiled slightly and reached out to put his arms around me. "If I make you feel so unsettled, why are you still so inattentive, then?"

I raised my eyebrows. "Inattentive?"

He turned to look at the desk, and I followed his gaze.
