"Don't push yourself too hard," I reminded him. Theo smiled and nodded.

However, when I stood up and left the room, Theo opened his laptop again and started to work.

I came to the kitchen. Caroline was already making dinner, and I felt a little embarrassed.

The house was not as big as the one in Whaldorf City, and the space was much smaller. I wondered if Caroline had heard us from outside the room. Previously, I told myself that although the house was small, it was cozy and warm.

However, it was at that moment I realized that we needed a bigger house.

Munchkin was not watching TV. He was sitting in the room, putting the 3D jigsaw puzzle pieces together. Everything looked peaceful and tranquil. Munchkin had been behaving himself ever since Theo came back.

Munchkin never managed to follow the routine that was set for him back then and always watched TV.

He would always find a chance to watch TV when I let my guard down. He would not miss the chance even if all he had was just a few minutes. Now, apart from the few hours scheduled for him every day, I would never catch him sitting in front of the TV again.

Although I felt a little jealous of Theo, it put my mind at ease knowing that the child was willing to behave himself.

It was time for dinner. I asked Caroline to sit down and have dinner with us. She had been cooking meals and eating with Keith when the three of us went out to have fun.

If Keith was busy with work, Caroline would have to eat alone. She must be lonely.

That was why I insisted that she stay for dinner. Munchkin invited her to join us too. Caroline was overwhelmed and could not stand it, so she agreed to have dinner with us.

After dinner, Caroline insisted on not letting me do the dishes in the kitchen. She asked me to rest.

I could not argue with her, so I had no choice but to sit down.

After a while, Caroline finished cleaning up the dishes. She informed me and went downstairs to rest.

It was only then I realized the house had become quiet all of a sudden after Caroline's departure.

I had no idea when Theo headed to the study.

I turned on the TV, knowing that there was a show on the discovery channel tonight that Munchkin loved to watch. Hence, I switched to that channel in advance to prepare for the show.

While the advertisements were

playing on the TV, I tiptoed my way to the study. I gently pushed the door open. Theo was indeed inside. His brows were furrowed as he looked at the computer screen with a gloomy look on his face.

His furrowed brows slowly after he saw me.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" I looked at him, feeling a little anxious.

"Nothing. It's just work," Theo comforted me.

"Is it because of Astral Cosmetics?" I asked directly.

It was normal for companies like Astral Cosmetics to have issues since it was a new company.

However, judging from what Keith had told me and the marketing channels I watched, Astral Cosmetics had already possessed the conditions to operate normally.

The marketing was good. It turned

out that other than the gic

engineering skills that attracted

ет

most of the people who cared about their appearance, it was also

jawdropping news for many y

clinics.

This head start had increased the gap between Astral and their competitors. Theo

should not be so troubled over the company.

Theo hesitated for a moment before explaining to me, "Yeah, it's about Astral Cosmetics. Don't worry, it's not about the business. I was

thinking of expanding into nel

markets. That's why I'm facing some difficulties here."

What Theo said put me at ease, but it piqued my curiosity.
