NovelEnglishChapter 871 Susan was amused by her words. "It's not that bad, actually. An average baby weighs about six pounds. You don't have to eat too much. Just make sure the baby gets enough nutrients. When you've given birth to the baby, you can slowly adjust your diet and then lose weight." Among the two women, one of them had just given birth while another was currently pregnant. Hence, they naturally had a lot in common to talk about. I listened to them talk while eating the dessert and suddenly felt at peace. I merely hoped that the two women would not involvein their topics.
"Wanda, my brother said that Mason brought Munchkin to South Vasetine. He has never separated from you since he was a kid. You must be sad about separating, right?" Cassey said, looking at me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSusan echoed, "You and Mr. Grant really should have a second child." I pursed my lips. "He won't stay in South Vasetine forever. He'll chin a few more days." Cassey snickered. "Don't avoid the topic. Honestly, you and Theo should hurry and have another while you're still young. If you're worried that Munchkin will be upset, you can seek his opinion. He's already four now and knows certain things. Maybe he wants a brother or a sister too." I sighed lightly. "Theo and I plan to discuss this after the holidays. He has too many things to handle in the company recently and isn't in the state to consider this matter." Hearing that Theo and I had the intention of having another child, Susan and Cassey smiled reassuringly.
"I'm going to the hospital later. Petra is hospitalized for appendicitis. If not for the fact that she's my brother's sweetheart, I really wouldn't want to go," Cassey said in displeasure.
Susan smiled. "Appendicitis surgery is a minor surgery. She'll only need to be hospitalized for seven days. It should be over soon." She looked atafter saying that, seemingly askinghow many more days before Petra would be discharged.
I did not know the answer to this question and was torn about what to say when the phone rang.
I fished out my phone and saw that it was from Mason. I quickly answered it.
Munchkin's voice rang out from the other side." Mommy, Mason and I are at the airport now. We're boarding the plane soon." My face broke into a grin. "Alright. Don't forget to givea call when you disembark later so I'll know that you're safe." Munchkin let out a chuckle. "Alright, Mommy. I will." Grant Corporation's annual convention was only a few days away. Theo had beceven busier now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI would not usually feel that lonely when Munchkin was around, but now that he was not, I suddenly felt lonely.
I would start to miss him every tI finished dinner. Although we spoke on video calls every night, my heart still felt empty because I could not hold or touch him.
This afternoon, Theo chand noticed how downcast I was. He sat on the sofa and tookinto his arms. "Are you coming to the company's annual convention tonight?" I shook my head almost subconsciously. Theo sighed softly and said helplessly, "Can you cwith me? You haven't left the door for days. Just take it as you're going out for sfresh air." I looked up at him and chuckled bitterly. "You know I don't like crowded places." Theo raised his eyebrows. "I don't feel at ease leaving you at halone. I won't be going too, then." This guy!
Left with no other choice, I could only follow him. The annual gonvention was held in a five-star hotel.
A long table was laid out in the middle of the ballroom, and spread out on it was a variety of champagne and delicate pastries. Spastries looked so scrumptious that I grabbed a plate and took a few. I then found a quiet place to enjoy them. Sensing someone behind me, I turned around to look and noticed that it was Celine. 1
She had a plate of pastries in her hand just like me. She also looked like she just wanted to find a quiet place to eat. X
