Chapter 573
The Woman From Hell
Grayson sighed lightly and said, "Cindy, there are plenty of people sitting in this room. Can you just
be more sensible?"
Cindy gaped. She wanted to say something else, but Zedd pulled her away and said, "Uncle is right.
There are so many people present here. You can say anything that you want in private after this
meal."
She listened to Zeddâs words. She then followed Zedd and sat down on a chair.
I was seated not far away from her. Theo kept taking food for me. Every time he placed some food
in my bowl, Cindy would cast a harsh and hostile glare at me.
It would truly be odd if I found this meal comfortable.
After tasting one of the dishes, Petra put down her cutleries and looked at me. "I heard that you like
desserts, so I specially asked the chefs at home to prepare some and bring it over. I'll let you try the
dessert later. You can tell me if you like it."
After a pause, she continued speaking, "I'll order a nourishing stew for you. You're too thin. You
need to nourish your body more. Otherwise, you won't have the energy to look after your child."
I pursed my lips and said, "Thank you for your
kindness, Petra."
There was a stunned expression on my face right now. Petra's illogical actions made me feel utterly
dazed.
After the waiters served the stew, Petra filled a bowl with stew and handed it to me. "Taste it."
Did she poison this stew?
I glanced at Theo. He smiled and said, "Try it."
Since he said so, I had no choice but to pick up the spoon and take a sip of the stew.
It tasted pretty good. However, I was not in a good mood. I stopped drinking the stew after taking
two sips.
Right then, Munchkin woke up in arms. He let out a few mumbles. Jerome glanced at him by the
side and asked, "Did you bring a feeding bottle with you?â
He had looked after Munchkin for a longer time than me, so he could easily tell if he was hungry or
if he had wet his diaper.
Theo lowered his head and took out a can of milk formula as well as a feeding bottle from the bag
on the floor. Jerome asked the waiter for some hot water.
After mixing the milk formula with water and waiting for the milk to cool down to an appropriate
temperature, he started feeding Munchkin.
However, Munchkin stopped drinking the milk after taking a few sips. He kept extending both of his
arms
toward him.
Jerome placed him in my arms.
"Whatâs going on?" I was slightly confused.
Xander chuckled and said, "He doesn't want to drink milk formula anymore."
Petra noticed what was going on and said, "It's normal for children to dislike drinking milk formula
after being accustomed to breastfeeding. I'll accompany you to the room next door so that you can
breastfeed.â
I nodded and carried Munchkin in my arms as I got up from the chair.
After entering the room next door. Petra smiled and said, "He's extremely hungry. Otherwise, he
wouldn't have woken up."
I pursed my lips without saying anything. I sat down o n the chair and started breastfeeding
Munchkin.
Initially, I thought that she would leave. However, she did not do so. She kept standing by the side
as she watched me breastfeed Munchkin. There was a loving expression on her face.
I frowned. I found everything weirder now.
