Chapter 866

Theo told me that Mason was going to take Munchkin to South Vasetine tomorrow, so I packed his

luggage before going to bed.

Mason came early the next morning. When I came downstairs, Theo was discussing the acquisition

of Zimmer Corporations with him.

Theo's countenance would surely sink every time he talked about acquiring Zimmer Corporations.

Mason was also trying to talk him out of driving Matthew into a corner, but he responded coldly,

"This isn't something you should worry about."

Undeterred, Mason continued to persuade him. "Don't forget that Zimmer Corporations is doing very

well abroad. Once you bring them down domestically, it'll b e very difficult for our industries abroad

to survive."

Theo’s complexion darkened further. "Do you think I’m only capable of bringing Zimmer

Corporations down domestically?"

Mason was stunned. "Are you saying that you've made a move abroad as well?"

Theo took a sip of water, his posture lackadaisical. "If he behaves himself when he goes abroad,

then I’ll consider sparing him. But if he doesn't behave

himself, then I'm sorry."

Like him, Mason was a businessman too, hence he understood what Theo would do when the time

came." If he refuses to relent, you'll spread the word about him stealing funds from other

companies, right?”

Theo did not say yes or no.

The two fell silent for a few seconds, and Mason could not help but ask, "I don’t understand. Why

must you drive Matthew into a corner?"

Theo raised his eyebrows, his gaze sweeping across m e as I walked downstairs. His sullen face

revealed a smile. He beckoned to me, signaling me to go over.

Although it was a pity that I did not get to hear Theo's answer, on second thought, I figured he never

intended to answer that question either.

Caroline walked out of the kitchen and said with a smile, "Sir, Ma’am, Mr. Mason, breakfast is

ready."

I nodded and thought Munchkin was still sleeping, so

I said to Caroline, "You can go wake Munchkin up, Caroline."

Caroline smiled and pointed outside the villa." Munchkin is already awake, Ma’am. He’s playing with

Snowy in the yard.”

As soon as she said that, Munchkin came in with Snowy.

When he saw me, his eyes lit up and he threw himself into my arms. "Mommy, you were having a

lie-in again.” "I wasn't having a lie-in." I gently sighed. "You're the one who stays in bed every day.

You only woke up early today."

Munchkin smiled sheepishly. "Don't worry, Mommy. I won't stay in bed anymore.”

One should not take those words seriously, of course.

I felt a furry touch on my feet and looked down, only to see Snowy rubbing himself against my feet.

He had grown up a lot, and the fur on his body was white and thick, which made him seem

extraordinarily adorable.

"Mommy." Munchkin rubbed Snowy’s head. "Can I bring Snowy with me?"

I frowned. "Snowy is a pet and needs to be checked in. But he’ll be afraid if he's checked in and

might even fall sick, so I don't recommend bringing him with you."

"But..." Children were innocent and would usually have an emotional dependence on those they

spent a lot of time with.

Mason could not stand seeing Munchkin so sad. He said, "There’s a special cabin on the plane for

pets. We just need to book a first-class cabin, check-in, and then we can take Snowy with us.”
