Chapter 700

After dinner, I went back to the bedroom to organize m y clothes. They were some cheap clothes

which I wore out of habit and felt very comfortable in.

Theo came back from the study and walked in when I was folding my clothes. He came to my side

and snatched the clothes away. "How can I let you do this kind of thing?"

Having said that, he began folding my clothes.

The man had extremely slender fingers. There was a watch worth millions of dollars on his wrist,

and I thought to myself that one contract that this pair of hands signed was enough for me to live

out the rest of my life. However, his hands were now folding my clothes.

Seeing the dazed look on my face, he looked up with a warm gaze. "What are you thinking about?"

I pursed my lips. "I'm thinking about what to do if Munchkin can't make friends when he goes to

kindergarten?"

"He won’t." Theo put the folded clothes into the closet. "He’s my son, and those children will be

eager to be friends with him."

"I'm afraid those who befriend him for his identity

aren't true friends."

The school that Theo found was naturally the best. Most of the children there were from families

that were rich and distinguished. When I was still working in Grant Corporation back then, I

overheard a department manager saying that if there was a child who was more well off in the class,

other children’s parents would tell their children to get closer to the child.

This was a very bad thing. Children of this age were obviously very innocent. Who they hung out

with should be entirely up to them.

Theo put his arm around my shoulder. "Don't worry so much. Munchkin is a very clever child. I’m

sure he can tell who is sincere in wanting to be friends with him."

I nodded and said no more.

When Theo was done folding the clothes, I said," Munchkin's school has been decided, so I should

find a job soon and go to work as normal again."

He frowned and expressed his disapproval. "You can rest a while more."

I pursed my lips. "I've been resting for more than half a month now."

"What about joining Grant Corporation?" he said, sweeping his gaze across the clothes in the closet

as though I had too few clothes. "I'll ask someone to buy you some more clothes tomorrow.”

I shook my head. "No, these are enough for me."

If he asked someone to buy me more clothes, they would no doubt be specially tailored by

designers and would cost an exorbitant amount. I was not particular about fashion and had always

prioritized comfort. No matter how many more he purchased, they would only end up as decorative

items.

He did not continue to persuade me and pulled me to sit on the bed, saying warmly, "Consider

coming back t o Grant Corporation."

I wanted to refuse, but after considering his character, I knew that refusing was not going to be that

easy. Hence, I simply said, "Wanting to work is one thing and wanting to do something I love is

another. Grant Corporation is really good, but work gets very busy there. If I were still in Zenon, then

I would definitely want to go to Grant Corporation more than anyone just to make a living. But now

that I have you, I don't need t o worry about making a living anymore so I want to do the things I

want to do."

He did listen to me. "What do you want to do?"

"My dream as a child was to become a lawyer, but I didn't do well enough in the college entrance

exam, so I chose another profession."

Theo raised his eyebrows. "So you want to go back to school?"

I nodded.

One needed to do work that one enjoyed in order to feel like one was not purely making money but

enjoying the work too.

He nodded and smiled. "Okay. Tomorrow, I'll have Keith go find a good training class."

I chuckled and looked up at him. "Does it feel like you're raising another daughter?”

He laughed. "It's an honor to raise you."

I leaned on his chest and listened to his heartbeat. I could not help but feel at ease. The future was

unpredictable. The best thing to do was to live in the moment.

Theo still had work to do. He went to the study after staying in the room with me for a moment.

I went to the bathroom to take a shower and came out t o lie on the bed. I looked at the dim light

overhead and found it hard to fall asleep.
