Chapter 2203
That night, after returning to my room, I took a shower and fell asleep. I fell asleep soon after I lay down, perhaps because I was exhausted. I was woken up by the glare of the sun the next day.
I stretched out my hand to touch the side of the bed. It was empty, and there was no warmth. Did Theo not come back to the room last night? What I said last night came to mind. He really did not come in. I really did not know if I should say that he was upright or just had no EQ.
I got up from bed, washed up, and went downstairs.
Theo and Munchkin were busy in the kitchen and dining room. Munchkin was serving juice on the table. When he turned around and saw me, a bright smile appeared on his face. "Mommy, you're awake."
Theo came out of the kitchen the next second wearing an apron and holding a plate of scrambled eggs. He looked up at me and smiled flatteringly. "Breakfast is just done. You can come and eat now." This was probably to atone for what happened yesterday.
I walked toward the dining table, pulled out the chair, and sat down. "You're being so virtuous today?"
"Why not? As long as I can make the madam smile." Theo winked at me.
More sweet talk.
Even so, I enjoyed it and could not help the corners of my mouth curling up. "Okay, let's consider that matter over. Just make sure it doesn't happen again."
Theo and Munchkin glanced at each other, the expression on their faces revealing a sense of success.
Munchkin put an egg in the bowl for me. "Mommy, eat more."
"You eat too, Munchkin."
He was going back to school tomorrow, and the reluctance in my heart surfaced again.
"Daddy and I will be staying at home with Munchkin today. Is that okay?"
"Okay."Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Munchkin was delighted after he heard what I said. Sure enough, children liked having their parents by their side.
Thinking of this, I thought of Cecilia again, and my gaze gradually dimmed.
"What's wrong?" Theo asked me in a low voice upon noticing my expression.
I shook my head quickly. "It's nothing. I just thought of someone suddenly."
Theo probably guessed it after looking at Munchkin and did not press anymore.
"You guys are having breakfast. I came just in time, then."
The originally warm atmosphere was suddenly shattered by a sharp voice.
Harriet appeared in our house dressed casually, and I was surprised. How did she come in?
I turned my suspicious gaze to Theo, who was also confused. He shook his head at me, indicating that it was not his doing.
"What a luxurious breakfast. Do you mind if I join you?" Harriet put her hands on the table and looked at me before then looking at Theo.
Even if I did mind it, she was already here. I did not say it out loud despite thinking this. After all, she was Green Orange's spokesperson now, so it was not good for us to offend her Content belongs to

Smiling reluctantly, I turned to her. "Of course. Please take a seat, Miss Osborn. Caroline, do bring two more portions of food.”
Her manager Lola had also come. She looked at us apologetically. "Sorry to bother you."
Compared to Harriet, I still felt more.

The two of them sat down one after another. Harriet showed no courtesy at all. She was not as cold as she was on stage. Instead, she behaved more like the girl next door. "Not bad. Did you prepare this, Theo?"
"Yes," he replied coldly.
"You made such a grand entrance, Miss Osborn. We were surprised. Did you come here for something?"
I actually wanted to ask how she got in, but asking that directly would not be too great, so I switched up my method of questioning.
"Isn't it normal to greet your neighbors after moving?"
Neighbors?
