Chapter 1686
The Woman From Hell
Keith came in to inform us when it was time to get off work.
Theo and I exchanged glances with each other. I was carrying out the mission Munchkin had
assigned me, while Theo was more worried about the baby in my belly.
Hence, the two of us did not say anything and immediately stood up. We headed to the office
canteen.
Although it was not a sumptuous meal, we were finally sitting down and having a proper meal
together.
It was as though I had completed my mission. We supervised each other and finally finished our
dinner.
Then, we hurried back to the office and began to work. Keith could not help but shake his head.
"Madam, it would be better if you look after yourself. I'm here to help President Grant. Donât worry,â
said Keith.
Keith thought I was busy with the companyâs matters.
"Donât worry. Iâm having fun here. Donât mind me. You've been busy for the past few days. If there's
nothing left to do, you can go home earlier. President Grant still needs you to help him tomorrow."
Keith knew us well, and he knew our habits. He stopped convincing me when I told him that.
I almost finished my work, and when I was about to save the document, my phone rang.
I picked it up and glanced at it. It was Fred who called.
I did not inform Theo when I saw that he was busy working. I answered the call right away.
"Wanda, weâve already finished eating dinner. I thought youâd be coming to pick Munchkin up, but I
didn't receive any calls from you. That's why I took the liberty of taking Munchkin here. Iâm currently
downstairs at Theoâs office. Are you nearby?"
I tilted my head and looked downstairs. There was a black-colored SUV parked there.
"Are you downstairs now? Is that SUV yours?â I was curious. Did he buy a car for himself?
âYes. I thought youâd be going with us and it'd be more convenient if I got a car..."
I initially thought of telling him that he could use my car, but I remembered that Theo was right
beside me. I dispelled the thought of it. Otherwise, Theo would be mad at me.
âOkay. Hang on. I'm coming," I replied.
"Okay. Munchkin and I are waiting downstairs.â
I turned to look at Theo, who was beside me, after hanging up the call.
Theo was staring at the screen. His fingers were flying across the computer keyboard as he asked,
"Do you need me to accompany you downstairs?"
"It's okay. Iâll leave you to your work. You won't be able to work when Munchkin comes upstairs
later."
I teased him and walked toward him.
Theo reached out to grab my hand and said, TH be upstairs. Call me if anything happens."
I reached out, gently stroked his slightly messy hair, and said, "Don't worry. How would he dare to
do anything to me at the officeâs entrance? Iâll be back soon."
When I arrived at the entrance, Fred and Munchkin saw me. They got out of the car happily.
I turned around and glanced behind them," Whereâs Tina?â
"That little girl had a great time. She fell asleep in the car. Munchkin insisted on not waking her up,"
replied Fred.
Then, the two of us shifted our gaze to Munchkin.
"Yeah Pumpkin is too tired. Letâs let her sleep." "Did you say goodbye to Tina?â
âOf course!" Munchkin replied with confidence, "I borrowed a pen from Uncle Fred and left a note for
Pumpkin when we were waiting for you. Besides, Uncle Fred will help me tell Pumpkin what
happened when he goes back. We can video call and talk to each other if that doesn't work."
This little guy seemed to be willing to part with her today.
I smiled helplessly and said, "Thank you for today." I stroked Munchkinâs head and said to Fred.
"No problem. It's just a shame that you couldn't make it today. The three of us were hoping that you
could come with us,â said Fred.
Munchkin immediately became enthusiastic when he heard that, and he said, "Yes. Mommy, you
didn't get to see how big the dinosaur models in there were." The little guy described it with his
gestures.
"Really? Then, letâs ask Daddy so we can all go together next time," I replied.
I quickly mentioned Theo's name so that I would not have to listen to Fred's nonsense.
