NovelEnglishChapter 862 In comparison, Petra was not that comfortable. She opened her mouth to speak a few times but only ended up saying one sentence, "He's really nice to you." She was referring to Theo when she said 'he'. I nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Yes." We fell into a long silence again after that.
"Yesterday, I heard that Mason is going to take Munchkin to South Vasetine," she spoke again in a cautious manner.
I nodded, looking at the lines on my palm and feeling a little irritable.
Petra sighed gently. "You and Theo should take advantage while you're still young to have another child." I looked up at her but did not say anything.

We were clearly mother and daughter, yet we had to be so cautious around each other. Should I call this ridiculous or pathetic? However, how else should we get along if not like this? Neither of us had an answer to that, hence we could only let it remain like this.
Not long after that, the nurse cin to administer the drip for Petra. With another person in the ward, the atmosphere seemed less awkward now.
The nurse finished administering the drip and went out. Soon after, Theo cback after buying breakfast. Petra had just undergone an operation and could only eat plain food, so he bought oatmeal and eggs. Theo took out the oatmeal from the bag and said with a smile, "I asked the nurse and you're only allowed oatmeal and eggs. You can only eat other things in another two more days." Petra nodded and thanked him.
We were not people who often mingled together, so we fell silent when there was nothing else to say.
I was not expecting Susan at all but she cbringing lots of things.
Although she usually seemed quiet, she was a woman who had worked alongside Tyler for many years.
Sensing the slightly awkward atmosphere between Petra and me, she could not stop talking once she started. Therefore, in the next few hours, Susan was instead the one who kept talking to Petra.
It was not until a look of exhaustion appeared on Petra's face that she left.
When Grayson cback, Theo and I left as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI had nothing to do after that, so Theo suggested that I accompany him to work. Knowing that it was useless to reject his offer, I went to Grant Corporation with him.
Maybe he saw that I was in a bad mood, so he held my hand when we my hand were waiting at the traffic light. He brought it closer to his mouth to kiss it. "You're in a bad mood?"
I froze and said blandly, "I can't say that I'm in a bad mood. I don't know how to put it. You can say that our interactions as mother and daughter are careful, and that's sad no matter how you think of it." Theo gently sighed. "So are you choosing to let go?" "What choice do I have other than choosing to let go?" I looked at him with a hidden pain in my gaze.
We lived in the scity, not to mention that we were family m were family om members who shared blood ties.
There was no way we could avoid each other forever. Were we supposed to interact so awkwardly every twe met? Theo smiled slightly. "There's no other choice and you know that." There was indeed no other choice. Life was just so helpless sometimes.
