Chapter 683
After a pause, I continued, "Nadia is pregnant."
He stopped moving and frowned. "Mason''s?"
I shrugged. "I think so."
He turned around and looked at Munchkin, who was standing in front of the TV happily eating the
pastries. He sighed. "Don''t ever tell him about Munchkin."
I pursed my lips. "Munchkin and he share a few simrities. He could tell."

"So what?" Jerome was chopping with a knife, and he was clearly infuriated. "As long as you don’t
admit it, h e won’t have the guts to take Munchkin away."
"Cecilia wouldn''t have died if it weren''t for Nadia, and now he''s letting Cecilia''s murderer conceive
his child. How can he still have the cheek to reunite with Munchkin?"
I cast my eyes down and clenched my hands slowly." She''ll get hereuppance."
No one in this world could still live life normally after doing evil things.
Jerome was a skilled cook, so after I washed the vegetables, there was nothing much I could do to
help him. I went to the living room to apany
Munchkin.
The phone in my pocket vibrated twice. I pulled it out and saw that it was a text from Theo. [It’s
raining in Whaldorf City. I forgot to take my umbre when I went out the door today.]
I smirked and sent a text back. [Where’s Keith?]
[He’s off work. He needs to spend time with his wife today.]
Even if Keith was not around, his secretary would never leave him with the possibility of getting
caught i n the rain. Was he not in the office, then?
However, I did not want to ask him where he was, so I replied: [Wear moreyers when you go out.]
Theo replied: [Okay.]
He then sent another text. [I''ll go and see you after I’m done with my work in a few more days.]
I nced at it and smiled but did not reply.
[Do you miss me?]
[Mm.] My face burned slightly.
[I miss you too.]
Jerome walked out of the kitchen. I switched off my phone and looked at him. "Are you done
cooking?"
He nodded. "Why is your face so red?" "Nothing." I quickly got up and went to the kitchen,
After eating, Jerome offered to take Munchkin out to y.
I was a little sleepy, so I did not follow them.
I took a nap in the bedroom and woke up to see that I had only slept for two hours. Naturally,
Jerome and Munchkin had not returned yet.
I looked out the window and it seemed like it was going to rain. The sky was gray and thick with
clouds.
I got up and washed my face. It was boring to stay here all by myself, so I found an umbre and
went out of the apartment.
The misty and rainy Salt City was gorgeous. It looked just like andscape painting.
It was not far from Grant Corporation. I suddenly wanted to go over and take a look, so I walked
over the whole way there.
Three years was not too long, but Grant Corporation’s building and the surrounding buildings had
changed s o much that I almost thought I was in the wrong ce if I did not look up to see the
massive words at the top of the building.
Grant Corporation''s office building was newly renovated and surrounded by new luxurious buildings
as well as shopping malls. This might have be the new city center.
After standing silently for a moment, I walked toward the square across the street.
It was still early in the day. I sat in the square looking a t the people walking by. There were lovers
holding hands andughing, as well as elderly who was walking while holding each other. There
were smiles o n their faces.
Perhaps I was in a different state of mind nowadays that I felt good about everything.
When I noticed someone next to me, I had already been carried into a warm embrace.
I smelled the familiar scent of the man and asked helplessly, "Aren''t you in Whaldorf City?"
He smiled slightly. "I thought you were still in Zenon. I didn''t know you''re already in Salt City. Why
didn’t you tell me?"
I tilted my head and leaned on his shoulder, saying mildly, "I wanted to tell you, but because you
were in Whaldorf City, I thought I''d wait until I got there."
