Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 948

Normally, I would have snuggled into his arms and softly told him to stop smoking, but now, I merely dried my hair and lay down on the bed.

A faint scent of tobacco wafted into the bedroom. I had caught a cold and there was discomfort in my throat, so I started coughing uncontrollably when I smelled the smoke.

Perhaps I was coughing too hard and Theo heard it, so he put out the cigarette and came in to pour me a glass of water. He helped me up from the bed. "Drink some water first."

When I finished drinking the water, Theo grabbed the medicine on the bedside table. "Take two tablets for your cough."

"No." I pushed his hand away. "I took them after dinner. The doctor said that this is just a common cold. Taking too much medicine can be harmful, so there’s no need to take too much."

Theo frowned slightly but did not insist that I take the medicine anymore.

Seeing that I had stopped coughing, he got up and went to the bathroom.

I lay back down on the bed and closed my eyes to

sleep, but I did not feel sleepy at all. Though if I did not sleep, then I had no idea what to say to Theo when he came out of the shower later.

After about ten minutes, Theo came out of the shower.

I thought he would reach out to hold me to sleep but h e did not.

The large bed seemed extraordinarily spacious and wide. This must be marital dissension as they called it.

When I woke up the next day, Theo was no longer around.

It took me a long time to fall asleep last night, so I felt a little sleepy when I woke up. I grabbed my phone and saw that it was not seven o'clock yet, so I figured I should sleep a little while more.

I closed my eyes and was just about to go back to sleep when someone walked into the bedroom.

"It's time to wake up." The man's soft voice rang in my ears.

I opened my eyes to look at him. When I saw him in a suit, I asked, "Are you going to the company?"

He nodded.

"Go on, then." I yawned. "I'm going to sleep a while more."

Theo helplessly smiled. "Do you have any plans for today?” "I might go and visit Cassey," I said sleepily.

"Hurry up and get up, then." He pulled me up from bed. “Go early so we can have lunch together."

I closed my eyes again. “Okay.”

Theo smiled and lifted his hand to pinch my chin, sucking my face somewhat mischievously." Sleepyhead."

I opened my eyes to look at him and let out a puff of air, saying, "You should go to work."

I could not even sleep even if I wanted to!

After Theo left, I lay back down on the bed, not wanting to listen to him.

What I did not expect was that Theo came back again.

He saw me lying on the bed and put on a knowing expression. "You leave me no choice."

As soon as he said that, he walked over to lift the covers and picked me up from bed. "Let's go out together. I'll drop you off at the Louises' on my way to work."

I was a little speechless. "The Louises' mansion is in the east while Grant Corporation is in the south. They’re not nearby at all!"

"I can still drop you off at the Louises' even if it isn’t near."

While he spoke, he had already carried me into the bathroom. He poured me a glass of water to brush my teeth.

This scene looked just like a father taking care of his daughter who had lost her mobility.

After washing up, I went downstairs to have breakfast.

After having breakfast, Theo and I went out the door.
