Chapter 670 Theo took my shoulder and said in a tender voice," We've been married for seven years. Of course, we've known each other for a very long time." He controlled his voice at just the right volso those around him could hear it. As soon as his words fell, the people around us started wagging their tongues.
Although Fred knew that my relationship with him was not ordinary, he did not expect it to be so extraordinary. Hence, he was somewhat surprised.
I elbowed Theo and stared up at him. "We're divorced." Theo acted as though he did not hear what I just said." Sometimes being too charming won't do. She mistakenly thought that I was messing with other women out there and secretly brought our child here in a fit of pique. She refuses to listen to my explanation. I had a hard tsearching for her all these years." Why was he working as a president when he was so good at making up stories? He should be a ist instead! "I can't believe she's Theo Grant's wife.

It was almost tfor the kids to finish their lessons. The car drove to the kindergarten entrance and we waited for a short tbefore the school bell rang. Theo followedout of the car.
The children were lining up to leave the kindergarten. Munchkin was the first in line for his class, so when he saw Theo from afar, his face was filled with joy. He waved at him with a smile. Theo smiled and waved back.
"Theo!" Munchkin jumped into Theo's arms as soon as he left the kindergarten compound. "I've missed you!" Theo was over the moon, and the smile on his face deepened. "Because you missedso much, I'll let you choose whatever you want to eat for dinner tonight." "I want KFC!" Munchkin looked atafter saying that, putting away the smile on his face.
