Chapter 769


    "No way." I snorted coldly. “If you don''t work, then I would have to earn money to support you."


    Although I had savings, it was not enough to sustain m e for the rest of my life.


    If Theo stopped working, then I would have to work a nine to five job. It would be difficult to sustain


    a family.


    However, was I too heartless to think so?


    Theo touched my nose. "You heartless little thing. From what you’re saying, you''ll ditch me if I stop


    working, huh?"


    I faked a smile. "Why would I?"


    Theo pinched my cheeks furiously. "Don''t worry about all these unrted things. I''ve earned


    enough money over the years, so even if Grant Corporation goes broke, I''ll still have enough money


    for you to squander away for the rest of your life. You shouldn’t worry about what to do when there''s


    no more money, but instead, you should worry about how you''re going to spend all of my money."


    See that? A rich person would sound extremely unrestrained when he spoke.


    The day passed peacefully andfortably. I really enjoyed the time with my family. I wanted to


    spend every single day quietly and mediocrely.


    It was precisely of this beauty that weekends seemed t o go by very quickly.


    It was considered a luxury for Theo to work from home for a day on the weekend. He got up very


    early the next day to go to work.


    After Keith sent Munchkin to the kindergarten, I was the only one left at home.


    After breakfast, I read a book in the study for a while and would not stop picturing the time we spent


    as a family in the study room yesterday, which made it hard for me to stay any longer in the study.


    Cassey happened to give me a call at this moment and invited me to go shopping with her, so I


    changed my clothes and went out.


    I did not drive. The driver took me to thergest shopping mall in the city center.


    Cassey stood at the entrance of the mall, dressed youthfully and beautifully. She was carrying two


    beautifully packaged pastry boxes, attracting the attention of many men.


    I got out of the car and walked over. I said with a smile, "How is Professor Caleb okay with you


    coming out dressed like this?"


    She sneered and shoved one of the pastry boxes into m y arms while responding nonchntly,


    “What about you? Why are you dressed up in such an old-fashioned way? Is Mr. Grant going


    broke?"


    After a pause, she said in exasperation, "Say, you''re such a stunner. If you could just dress up


    prettier, you''ll definitely dazzle everyone. So why are you wasting your beauty?"


    I smiled slightly. "Being too shy can attract unnecessary trouble."


    After all, I had made it twice to the top trending hashtags previously and a lot of people had seen


    my photos. If I dressed up even slightly, it was hard not to be recognized by others. If someone took


    a photo of m e in secret, then it would spell trouble.


    She seemed to have understood as well and nodded, not saying further.


    There were peopleing and going in the mall. The ce was bustling with energy, which I did


    not really like. After spending time alone for an extended period of time, I actually found such noise


    slightly unbearable.


    Cassey was a woman who enjoyed shopping very much, especially when it came to jewelry


    shopping. She would walk into every jewelry shop and purchase the jewelry she liked.


    After making payment and walking out of the shop, she would often smile like a child.


    Her cheerful expression would remind me of Cecilia. Like Casey, she would feel particrly happy


    when she tasted good food or bought the things she liked.


    Some said that birds of a feather flocked together.


    Cecilia grew up with me and we relied on each other and shared hardships together. That was why


    even if our personalities were different, we could still be very good friends.


    Though strangely, how did Cassey and I end up bing friends?


    Was it purely because her personality resembled Cecilia in some ways?


    Seeing that I was daydreaming, Cassey nudged me with her arm. "Hurry up and take a look at this


    for me.


    Which one of these two look better?"


    The clubhouse under her name alone had a profit o f six figures per day, yet she was struggling


    with which of the two nes to choose?


    I pursed my lips, "Buy them all."This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
