Chapter 696

He nodded. "When I'm done with things here, we'll go back to Whaldorf City. I've already found a

kindergarten, so Munchkin can enroll straight away when we return."

"Okay."

As soon as we got out of the car, Munchkin ran over and hugged my leg. "Mommy, I thought you

didn't want me anymore."

"What a silly thing to say." I was caught between laughter and tears.

Upon entering the villa, I saw a woman of about 40 coming out of the kitchen and turned around to

ask Theo, "Where's Miss Woods?"

"Miss Woods hasn't been feeling well since last year, s o I gave her some money to go home for

retirement. This is our new caretaker, you can just call her Ms. Franca."

I nodded to indicate that I understood.

Dinner was being cooked, so Theo and I brought Munchkin to the living room to have a seat.

Keith walked into the villa looking a little uneasy.

Theo leaned against the couch, looking at him with an

indifferent gaze.

"I was negligent in today's matter, Mr. Grant. I'll receive my punishment.” Keith bowed his head.

Theo sneered. "There won’t be a next time."

Keith nodded. "How do you plan to deal with Serena?"

"As a celebrity, she’s far from qualified right now." Theo crossed his legs in an idle posture. "She

has enjoyed the best treatment in the company in the last three years, and it's about time this ends

here. We should give other artists a chance now."

Keith nodded. "How should we deal with Julie, her mother?"

Theo frowned, a cold aura lingering on his charming brows. "I'll let you handle this accordingly. Why

would I even hire you if you're going to ask me everything?"

After a pause, he frowned and continued, "Ask Heidi t o find another artist tomorrow for the promo

shoot. If we have to delay for a day, so be it. Grant Corporation can still afford to pay the

compensation.”

"Okay."

Suddenly, there came the sound of a dog barking outside the villa.

I frowned. "Where is the barking coming from?"

Keith's body stiffened. "Mr. Randall from Peace Corp gave me a Samoyed dog. I took him home but

my wife refused to let me raise it, so I went home to pick him u p before coming here. I plan to give

him away to a random person."

"Samoyed?" Munchkin’s eyes lit up. "What kind of a dog is a Samoyed dog?"

Keith gestured with his hand. "About this big, very white fur, and purebred."

"Can I go out and take a look at it?" Munchkin asked excitedly.

I was just about to stop him when Theo said, "Of course, you can."

I froze, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Keith took Munchkin out of the villa, whereas I followed them uneasily.

A Samoyed was lying on the ground in the yard, barking pitifully.

Keith was in a rush just now and forgot to close the door, so it jumped out of the car.

Munchkin exclaimed happily when he saw the dog. H e then ran over and picked the dog up from

the ground. "He's so adorable."

I walked over and bent down to look at the Samoyed. " He is pretty cute."

The Samoyed licked Munchkin’s hand, then looked up at him and barked twice.

"Can I keep it, Mommy?" Munchkin asked expectantly.

I frowned and subconsciously wanted to refuse.

However, Theo said, "Someone will take care of him at home. Besides, when we're not at home,

Munchkin won't be as lonely if the dog is around.”
