| hurriedly brought the cake to Munchkin's side and quietly took advantage of his phone call to feast on it with
Munchkin.
| did not know if it was because | was pregnant or if the owner of this store really had good baking skills, but the
cake was very tasty.
The cream was not sickly sweet, and you could even taste the sweetness of the raspberry juice. At the same
time, it was not completely separated from the cream. The texture was really amazing. The cake had just the
right thickness and fit in one's mouth perfectly.
"I know. You don't have to worry about these. I'll arrange them."
Theo put on a serious face and said a few
words before hanging up. | looked at him and felt as though something was wrong. | then put down the fork.
"Did something happen at work?"
Theo looked atand nodded with a stony expression.

that's going to be the competition venue to build momentum. In addition to inviting the leaders of the
participating companies to a meeting, there will be smechas from the organizers and other companies on
display in the exhibition hall on the first floor. You can take Munchkin to see them then.
"If he's interested, that is," Theo added to the end of his sentence.
| looked at Munchkin and wanted to ask his opinion, but | turned my head and saw the little guy burying his head
in the cake. | guessed he did not listen to anything Theo had just said.
| laughed and thought I would ask him later.
"The program this afternoon may be relatively boring. It'll all be snumerical modeling and other
competitions. If you don't understand, may feel a little bored. You can take Munchkin out for a walk. I'll have
Keith accompany you."
"Doesn't Keith need to follow you around?"
"Don't worry, Ruby will be there with me. She understands the technology. It'll be easier for her to make notes
once she goes back as well."
I nodded. I did not feel uneasy about Ruby, but if Keith followed me, | was afraid that Theo alone would be too
busy.
However, if | refused, Theo would definitely be distracted and worry aboutand Munchkin.
Hence, | finally agreed to it.
"But you must be back before dinner. There's a dinner party in the evening. | need you to accompanyto
attend it."
Speaking of which, Theo's face looked slightly unnatural.
"Ruby called you earlier about the dinner party, right?"
Theo's eyes turned away as he took a sip of coffee. "If she's still like this when we get back home, I'll have to ask
her to leave." "Take your time. Give her sttoo." | took Theo's hand.
| knew what Ruby meant.
It was not

female subordinate, especially for a business dinner like this.

subordinate.
Only on this special occasion, the person Theo brought would also serve as the female companion of the
company's leader. If the
subordinate was not a capable
assistant, it would be someone who
shared a closer relationid not want
with the leader. Ruby naturally did not want to let go of this opportunity.
She forgot that Theo and she were not compatible.
The reason | advised Theo to give Ruby smore tis that | had also seen Ruby's ability.
I had asked Keith before | came.
Ruby had no problems in her work except that she usually liked to pester Theo. Her professional ability was top
in the industry.
