Chapter 567


    Based on my understanding of Theo''s character, I thought he would not attend, but surprisingly, he


    nodded and said, "I''m going."


    Xander looked meaningfully at Theo but did not say anything else.


    Xander and Jerome needed to work in the afternoon, s o we drove off as we did not want to waste


    their time.


    After driving out of the residential area, I looked at Theo. "Are you really going to attend Petra''s


    banquet?"


    Theo smirked. "Xander said he didn''t want to have a meal with Petra at first, but he decided to go


    today."


    After a pause, he continued, "Also, haven’t you noticed how idle he is?"


    I did not really think about it.


    After thinking about it carefully, I realized that Xander had been too idletely, which was odd.


    His identity as a celebrity aside, even the end of the year work in the Nietzsches’ industry was


    enough to keep him on his toes.


    I pursed my lips. "Although Petra is now in control of all the Nietzsches’ industries, Xander is still


    their heir of the Nietzsches. He shouldn’t be this idle at the end o


    f the year, especially at the Nietzsches'' auditing firm. I t would usually remain busy until after New


    Year''s. Could something have happened?”


    "Looks like you''re not too dumb after all,” Theo mocked me.


    Motherf*cker...


    Would he only feel better after mocking me?


    Theo lifted his hands to touch Munchkin’s face." Nominally, Petra is part of the Nietzsches. She’s in


    charge of all of the Nietzsches'' industries. Now that her reputation is damaged, the industries under


    her name and all the industries under the Nietzsches'' are equally affected. Fortunately, the


    Nietzsches'' family fortune is big enough to help themst until now, but I think it won''tst much


    longer."


    This was something that I had never thought about. After hearing what Theo said, I felt worried for


    Xander.


    "The most important thing in apany is its reputation as well as the boss'' reputation. All the


    majorpanies that worked with the Nietzsches previously have canceled their partnership. The


    Nietzsches are now in jeopardy."


    I lowered my gaze. "So it’s useless for Xander to go to thepany now. He might as well stay at


    home and figure out a way to contactpanies that can work with the Nietzsches."


    Theo nodded. "The only way to help the Nietzsches now is to find several bigpanies to build


    partnerships as soon as possible.”


    Munchkin was probably grumpy about being left out, s o he grabbed my hair and swung it around. I


    lowered my head and kissed his forehead, then looked at Theo. "Has Grant Corporation canceled


    their partnership with Nietzsche Corporations?”


    Theo pursed his lips. "Not really, but I hadn''t moved thepany to Whaldorf City yet when we first


    signed the agreement back then. Now that I''ve moved thepany to Whaldorf City, I can''t provide


    as many funds to Nietzsche Corporations as I used to. That amount is far from enough for the


    Nietzsche Corporations now.”


    My head hurt after hearing what he said.


    I was the one who destroyed Petra’s reputation. I was one of the reasons behind Nietzsche


    Corporations'' current predicament.


    Back then, I did not know that this would indirectly affect Xander...


    When we returned to the vi, it was almost noon.

    Theo carried Munchkin to our room and told me to keep an eye on him. He went downstairs to bring


    Munchkin''s things upstairs.


    After taking the things upstairs, I walked over and tugged on his sleeve. "I''m hungry, Theo."


    Theo kissed my forehead with a smile. "What would you like to eat?"


    I pursed my lips. "I want to eat your homecooked food."


    After a pause, I continued, "Munchkin wants to eat the food you cook too."


    Theo burst outughing. “Are you sure he can eat solid food right now?"
