Chapter 768 I pursed my lips and leaned toward the man's lips to plant a kiss. "How about this?" Theo narrowed his eyes. "No way." "What should I do to thank you, then?" I was a little dumbfounded.
He used to only request a kiss as a token of appreciation.
Theo's smirk looked a little meaningful. "You'll owefirst. I'll let you know when I've figured it out." Waiting for him to figure it out meant that nothing would happen, so I was relieved and said with a smile, "Sure, let's wait until you figure it out, then." Theo was aware of my petty tricks but did not say much about it and tookdownstairs to have something to eat.
After eating and returning to the bedroom, Theo pickedup and placedon the bed. "Don't go anywhere today and lay on the bed. Have a good rest." I thought he was overly worried and smiled slightly." My belly really isn't cramping up. I don't need to lay in bed all day." Insistence was written all over his face and I sighed helplessly, choosing to listen to him.
Later, he went to the study. When he returned, there were several documents in his hands. After thinking about it, I thought he was busy enough with the company's matters. If he had to work from hwhile taking care of Munchkin and me, then it would only be more tiring for him.
Thinking that I had brought him trouble, I inevitably blamed myself, so I stayed in bed the whole treading. I tried my best not to have him place his whole focus on me.
After almost an hour, Theo left the room.
I thought he went to the study again, but he cback with a bowl of carrot soup in his hands and I froze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe sat on the bed and looked warmly and tenderly at me. "It's not that hot anymore, you can just drink it straight away." I did not really like the taste of carrots and said with a frown, "My belly isn't cramping up. I really don't need to drink this." Although I had stopped throwing up these days, every tI ate too much or ate something that I did not like, I found myself throwing up quite easily.
I did not like the taste of carrots and would throw up easily.
Theo knew that, hence he did not forceto drink it and merely placed it on the bedside table. "I'll put this here first. If your stomach is hurting, then try and drink some, okay?" I nodded. "Don't worry about me. You should hurry up and continue with your work." If he kept coming to check on me, then with all the work that was piling up, he might even have to work until midnight.
Theo kissed my forehead and got up to finish his work.
After lunch, I did not want to go back to the room to lay down and suggested to Theo to go to the study.
He agreed. Perhaps worried that it was unsafe for Munchkin to stay downstairs alone, he brought him to the study as well.
This was a newly-purchased villa by Theo.
Considering the fact that we had Munchkin now, the study was designed to be very spacious. There was a door behind the office chair and after pushing the door in, one would cto a children's study. The books on the bookshelves were all carefully selected by Theo, and they were all books suitable for Munchkin's age at the moment.
However, Munchkin merely looked at the pictures when he read.
He was only four, so I did not want to put too much pressure on him when it cto his education. Hence, I focused on cultivating his hobbies.
When he was a year older, I would then find out his favorite things to do and let him learn the skills accordingly. Tpassed slowly. Theo was bustling about, and Munchkin had fallen asleep while reading books. He was nestled on the sofa and sleeping soundly.
I looked at them and felt a great sense of happiness.
How nice would it be if life could remain this simple and blissful every day? Theo's fingers were tapping quickly on the keyboard, his gaze stern and focused. The man was inherently tough and handsome. When he was serious at work, it felt as though all the light in the world was converged around him, making him look particularly attractive.
I watched as he stopped and reached out to grab the glass. He brought it to his mouth, only to realize that there was no more water in the glass. He furrowed his charming brows slightly, though only for a fleeting moment. He then put it down and went on with his work.
I put down the book in my hands and got up. I walked over and picked up his glass.
His gaze fell on me, and he stoppedwith a smile." I'll go and pour it myself later." I smiled. "This is my duty as a wife." Perhaps this statement had pleased him very much that he wrapped his arms around my waist, ignoring the fact that Munchkin was still around. He kissed my lips.
The man's lips carried a cool fragrance and I was momentarily lost in the kiss.
It was only until I heard Munchkin callingdid I cback to my senses and push him away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMunchkin had just woken up and had not opened his eyes. When I walked over, I asked in a somewhat flustered manner, "Why are you awake?" "I'm thirsty," Munchkin opened one eye and said in a daze.
I laughed. "I'll go get both of you swater." After pouring them water and watching the two of them quench their thirst, I nestled in the small sofa once more.
Munchkin had just woken up. He jumped off the sofa holding the picture book he did not finish earlier and ran up to me. He lay down with his belly on the carpet. "Mommy, I fell asleep by accident just now. I definitely didn't fall asleep on purpose because I didn't want to read the book." I was amused by him. "Now that you're not sleepy anymore, you should read seriously. You can askif there are any words you don't know how to read." Munchkin nodded obediently. "Okay." I then looked at Theo as he sat in his office chair handling his work. Sure enough, men who were hard at work were the most good-looking.
"Mommy, why do you keep staring at Theo?" Munchkin suddenly asked.
I cback to my senses and looked at Munchkin with a slightly flushed face. "Didn't I ask you to read? What are you looking atfor?" Munchkin felt slightly aggrieved. "Okay." A man's laugh sounded in my ears and my head lowered even more.
Theo got up and walked over. He sat next toand tookinto his arms. "Do I look too handsto you?" I twitched my mouth, not wanting to admit it. "You're shameless." Theo laughed and took the book out of my hand." What do you want to have for dinner?"
I thought very seriously about it and realized that there was nothing im particular that I wished to eat. I said helplessly, "Maybe you should ask Munchkin instead." Munchkin heardcalling out his nand immediately listed a few options.
Theo rubbed his head with a smile. "Okay, I'll cook tonight for you." "Yay!" Munchkin cheered with joy.
Theo looked down at the book title in his hand and looked at me, asking, "You've been reading such unhelpful books all day?"
I cleared my throat. "How is it unhelpful? You're a president right? I'm learning from the female lead in the books on how they interact with the presidents." He raised his eyebrows. "How is your learning going, then?"
"It's alright." I stroked my nose. "I just feel a strong urge to criticize them.
e Why do the presidents in the books atways have so much free time? The female lead runs to different places in the world and he has all the tin the world to chase after her." Since meeting Theo, he had been busy with work almost every moment. There were always endless meetings, contracts, and errands.
Seemingly grasping the trace of complaint in my voice, he smiled. "How about we go to different places i n the world as well?" X
