Chapter 1544
The phone rang again, and there was still no answer. | was going to hang up first and talk to them again later in
the morning, but | saw the screen interface showing that the call was picked up.
"Wanda?" Petra's worried voice cfrom the other line. "Is that you, Wanda?"
"Mom, it's me.
"How are you? Mom, don't worry.
Munchkin is fine, and the baby and I are both fine as well."
| touched my belly. I did not know if it was the posture. Obviously, it had not been that long, but I felt that my
belly was bigger than before.
"It's good that you're okay. Before this,
Theo called us and toldhe's found you. He told us that we didn't have to worry. | believed him, but I still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcouldn't put my heart to rest. That's why | sent you so many messages. I've disturbed your rest."
Her worry sometimes made my heart ache.
"Not at all, Mom. | was afraid that | might have disturbed you with my call."
"That's not the case. Your dad and | don't get that much sleep now that we're older. Besides, we can sleep better
now that we know you're safe and sound. So where are you guys now? Is someone taking care of you?"
"Theo took us to Zenon. Back here, Munchkin can be happy. A maid takes care of all the cooking, so there's no
need forto do it."
Petra, on the other end of the phone, heard this and relaxed a bit.
"That's good. You should rest more this tand don't think about anything else. Don't worry, whenever you
want to cback, I'll take care of you. | can move to your place as well."
Just a moment ago, | managed to calm Petra down. However, in the blink of an eye, she started to worry about
my future again.
"Okay." | originally wanted to refuse to let her rest at ease and not worry about me. However, she would
definitely not agree if | said so now. It was better to agree first.
"Mom, you and Dad should rest
early. | only called to let you know that we were safe. We're doing just fine here, so you don't have to worry
"Good. You take care of your health. Also, go to bed early." Petra hung up the phone sharply
This was what all mothers did. As soon as the matter of their children wa mentioned, they would nag endlessly.
The two phone calls just now also madewonder if | should start considering going back too.
Of course, Munchkin and | could stay in Zenon permanently and that would not be a problem at all. However, the
scould not be said for him.
| got up and looked out the window
at the small city of Zenon. The distant downtown neon lights flashed with different colors, but knew that most of
them were just street lights as many stores had closed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPerhaps there were also people working late at night, but that was the minority.
The whole city basically turned quiet after ten o'clock, and | enjoyed this pace of life. What would happen now?
At this time, | heard that the flowing sound of water in the bathroom had stopped. | suddenly remembered what
Theo said before entering the bathroom. My face began to flush as fushed to the bed to pull the covers over
myself.
The door to the bathroom opened just after | got under the covers. I quickly closed my eyes and started
pretending to sleep, but my ears were listening to the sounds aroundattentively.
| heard Theo cout and stand by the bed for a while. He then turned off the bedside lamp. | was glad that he
had letgo. As long as he went to bed, | would have ' escaped’ this time.
| was thinking of this when a large hand suddenly reached out to my waist. He tookinto his arms.
