Chapter 852

I nodded and said no more. I merely lowered my gaze t o look at the bracelet. "The bracelet I wore

previously was from Yvonne, but I later learned how expensive it was so I took it off. How much did

you spend on this bracelet? If it’s too expensive, then I don't want to wear it all day long."

I would be really heartbroken if it broke.

He pursed his lips and smoothed out my long hair." Keith went on a business trip previously and

visited a jewelry shop on his way back. He wanted to buy his wife a gift and had set his eyes on two

pieces, which h e bought. When I learned about it, I noticed how nice the green emerald is, so I

bought one from him."

I knew nothing about emeralds, but I knew it was not a s simple as he made it out to be. The luster

and quality looked extraordinarily pleasant, so how could it be a casual purchase from a jewelry

store?

Before I woke up the next morning, I heard the sound o f running footsteps outside the door.

The curtains were then opened and a bright light shone into the room. I grabbed the blanket and

covered my face, saying irritably, "Theo Grant, don't you think you're horrible for not letting me sleep

when you don't want to sleep yourself?"

Theo walked over and lifted the covers, his body blocking a huge portion of the sunlight. I opened

my eyes and quickly got used to the brightness. "What time is it?”

"It’s almost nine o'clock now. We already have guests a t home. It's time you get out of bed," Theo

helplessly said.

I finally remembered that Quinn and the Louises were coming over today.

After a quick washing up, I walked out of the bedroom and saw Munchkin running upstairs. I quickly

said," Munchkin, don't run up the staircase."

Munchkin quickly stopped. "You're finally out of bed, Mommy.”

After going downstairs, Theo was already sitting down on the sofa drinking tea with Grayson.

Petra and Quinn were cooking in the kitchen. Their laughter could be heard from the living room.

Munchkin came downstairs with Snowy in his arms, then sat down beside Theo. "Theo, Snowy is

finally awake too."

Did my own son just imply something?

Sensing the lively atmosphere, the word 'mediocrity' suddenly came to my mind.

Quinn came out of the kitchen with a bowl of shrimp stew in her hands. "We’ve all eaten. Have

something first. Lunch will be late.”

I nodded and reached out to take it.

She turned around and went to busy herself in the kitchen again. I looked in the direction of the

kitchen, lost in thoughts.

Theo beckoned to me. "What are you thinking about, Wanda? Be good, sit down, and drink the

stew.”

I took my seat beside him and looked at Grayson, asking, "Have you been here for long?"

He shook his head and said with a smile, "We just came."

After a pause, he looked at the stew in my hands and continued, “You seem thinner now. You

should eat more."

I forced a smile, not knowing what to say.

After taking a few small bites, Quinn came out of the kitchen and said to Theo, "Come and make the

wraps with us, Theo."

Theo nodded and got up to go into the kitchen.

Grayson and I were alone now. Although we were father and daughter, we had almost nothing to

say to each other.

Seemingly noticing the bracelet on my wrist, he was slightly stunned and said, "This bracelet is of

good

quality."

I was stunned, then I said, "Theo gave it to me."

He nodded. "He treats you very well."

I smiled. "Yeah.”

There was nothing left to say and we fell silent.
