Chapter 687
| reminded her, "Anne, remember to drink."
"Okay, Mommy!" The little girl''s eyes were still fixed on theic when she answered me.
One could tell just how engrossed she was in her reading.
After stepping out of the screen, | couldn''t help but look at Hendrix, who was working at his desk.
He was still very focused. | picked up the unfinished book from the cradle and walked to his side, then leaned against him as |

He smiled softly and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you hungry?"
| shook my head and leaned it against his shoulder, using both my hands to open and read the book.
"What do you want to eatter?" He stopped what he was doing and put his arms behind me, which made it easier for me to lean
on him.
| thought very seriously and found that there wasn''t anything | particrly wanted to eat. | tilted my head to look at him. "I don''t
seem to be craving anything.”
"Shall we cook at home then?"
| nodded, a smile spread across my face. "But, you''re cooking.”
The food | made was not as delicious as his.
"Sure!"
After that, | continued reading my book. He looked at the book in my hand and could not help but smile. "When did you buy this?
Domineering CEO?"
| closed the book and looked at the title, "Love Me, Domineering CEO". | said with a smirk, "Monique bought this book previously
to put it in Bronzy Condo. | found it humorous, so | brought it along.”
Heughed. "So, is it good?"
| thought for a moment and nodded. "It''s alright." After a pause, | continued, "I just think that the other CEOs seem to be quite
free. Why do they have so much time that they can take the female lead around the world?"
Ever since | met Hendrix, he had always been busy with his endless meetings and incessant contract discussions.
He seemed to hear the grudge in my words. He answered with a smile, "Why don''t we travel around the world?"
| shook my head. "No way. If you don''t work, well have no breadwinner. Then, I''ll have to do it myself."
Even though I had my savings to sustain us during the four years in Hovell, it would still run out one day. It wasn''t easy taking
care of a family with a nine-to-five job.
Amused, he said, "Your savings from the Roberts Group these few years are more than enough to sustain you for an eternity.
Rather than worrying about this, you might as well worry about whether you can finish spending all this money."
Huh!
He was quite forthright about this.
This was a peaceful andfortable day. | had grown to like staying home in quietness and bliss, spending every afternoon
together as a family.
The weekend was so blissful, it passed in a blink of an eye.
Hendrix didn''t have much rest. He was lucky he could get one day off.
Only Anne and | were left to keep each otherpany, but even Anne had to go for tuition ss, so that left me all alone.
Freya called and said that she wanted to go shopping. Jarold City was a lot colder inte autumn, so | didn’t want to go out.
But being alone at home meant any easy road to depression, so | agreed to meet her at the entrance of the shopping mall.
| took a cab over instead of driving.
When | arrived, Freya was alr:
