The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 454

Sophia was momentarily stunned, instinctively turning to look at Brandon.

"Don't worry. I'm not trying to fight you for custody."

After saying that, Brandon had already pulled Theresa along to go back to their room to pick out clothes.

Sophia stood still, feeling a bit lost as well.

The Brandon she knew was back, cool and logical, always all about business. The Brandon from over two years ago seemed even more distant and

unapproachable, but it was the kind of unapproachable that came from extreme calm and reason. Now, he seemed to be unapproachable with a hint of emotion.

The tenderness Brandon had shown recently was as fleeting as a flash in the pan.

Sophia got it. She chose this road herself, so she had no right to feel down, let alone to care or complain.

Brandon took Theresa for a bath, carefully dried her hair, and then read her a bedtime story, lulling her to sleep.

Although he was still a rookie dad, his natural knack for learning and the cramming he'd done recently meant he was pretty much nailing the whole childcare thing.

Theresa loved his company too. Despite Sophia not being by her side all night, Theresa's mood wasn't affected at all; in fact, she seemed especially happy, interacting well with Brandon.
