The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1408

Munchkin was sleeping when I arrived.

Petra sat on the bed looking worriedly at Munchkin, saying, "He said he was sleepy after having breakfast this morning and has been sleeping until now."

I reached out and touched Munchkin's forehead. It was indeed a little hot. I sighed and said, "Munchkin was born a premature baby and never had much breast milk, which is why he's physically weak. Whaldorf City is too cold in the autumn, and with the air being less fresh, it's easy for him to fall sick."

"Was he often sick when you were in Zenon previously?"

I shook my head. "Zenon's temperature is optimal throughout the year. He never really fell sick there."

Petra let out a long sigh. "I've been thinking of ways to nourish his body lately, but he doesn't have an appetite and only eats a little each time. It frustrates me to see him getting skinnier and skinnier." "He's just a little boy and can't get sick all the time. Why don't you take him to Zenon for a period of time to recuperate? It won't work if this continues."

I nodded. "I've been considering taking him to Zenon too."

I had been thinking about this matter for the past few days. Since I had no work to do right now, nor did I have anything to do, I could use this opportunity to take Munchkin to Zenon until the new year. His body would not be able to handle the constant sickness.

However, Theo would surely not allow me to take Munchkin to Zenon all by myself and might even come with us. That would delay his work too much, mainly because Jordan was constantly lying in wait to attack Grant Corporation. If Theo left Whaldorf City for too long, I feared he might try something again.

"I can't go now. When Theo is done with things here, then we'll take Munchkin to Zenon for a period of time."

I looked at Munchkin's face and thought of Sky. They were about the same age and could be great playmates if they got to know each other.

Petra held my hand and persuaded me," Tell Theo not to spend all of his time at work. You're not young anymore. I inquired about it and was told that you aren't exactly infertile. The incident has caused damage to your body, so it'll take time for you to recover. It's been so many years and you should be done recuperating by now. Take time to go to the hospital together and get yourselves checked. It's never a bad thing to try for another child.

"I bumped into Quinn at the hospital two days ago. There was a man about her age beside her. I saw them entering the ob-gyn office, so I asked the doctor. I was told that she was checking if she could still conceive right now. She's planning to try for a child."

I was stunned, feeling a little surprised.

Since Matthew's father passed away, Quinn bought a flower shop with a small yard and lived alone. I thought she planned to spend the rest of her life quietly, but she had now met a compatible man and even wanted to try for a baby.

I said with a smile, "Isn't that great? She has suffered long enough in the Zimmers, so it's great to hear that she has met someone she likes and wants to give him a child. She probably wants to live an ordinary life. After all, she can't just spend the rest of her life alone."

Petra nodded. "Yeah. Humans tend to feel lonely when they're older. You and Theo should hurry up and try for another one so the house will be livelier. Look at Cassey. She's planning to have a second child now. You don't have to worry that no one will take care of your baby because we can help. I've handed all company matters to Xander and have time to take care of your baby for you."

I could not help but smile. "I know you're anxious, but this can't be rushed. You have Munchkin now, and he's always by your side to keep you company. Besides, if I were to try for another one, you're going to die of exhaustion taking care of both at the same time."

"How can I not manage? Your dad has all the time in the world right now and is bored to death every day. Even his temper is getting hotter. It's the best time for you to give birth to another one to manage his bad temper," Petra laughed unknowingly as she spoke.

Afraid that we would interrupt Munchkin's nap, we did not talk further and tiptoed out of his room.

After leaving the Louises', I drove to Grant Corporation and planned to have dinner with Theo outside.

I drove to the company's entrance out of habit, then walked into the company through the front door. As soon as I got in, I bumped into Thalia walking out of the elevator.

Seeing the lunch box in her hands and a faint blush on her face, I could not help but chuckle.

Was she dating someone? An employee working in the same company?
