Chapter 1638


    I hurriedly brought the cake to Munchkin''s side and quietly took advantage of his phone call to feast on it with Munchkin.


    I did not know if it was because I was pregnant or if the owner of this store really had good baking skills, but the cake was very tasty.


    The cream was not sickly sweet, and you could even taste the sweetness of the raspberry juice. At the same time, it was notpletely separated from the cream. The texture was really amazing. The cake had just the right thickness and fit in one''s mouth perfectly.


    "I know. You don''t have to worry about these. I''ll arrange them."


    Theo put on a serious face and said a few


    words before hanging up. I looked at him and felt as though something was wrong. I then put down the fork.


    "Did something happen at work?"


    Theo looked at me and nodded with a stony expression.


    "Registration officially starts tomorrow, and they''ve chosen to hold a registration session at the exhibition hall that''s going to be thepetition venue to build momentum. In addition to inviting the leaders of the participatingpanies to a meeting, there will be some mechas from the organizers and otherpanies on disy in the exhibition hall on the first floor. You can take Munchkin to see them then.


    "If he''s interested, that is," Theo added to the end of his sentence.


    I looked at Munchkin and wanted to ask his opinion, but I turned my head and saw the little guy burying his head in the cake. I guessed he did not listen to anything Theo had just said.


    Iughed and thought I would ask himter.


    "The program this afternoon may be rtively boring. It''ll all be some numerical modeling and otherpetitions. If you don''t understand, may feel a little bored. You can take Munchkin out for a walk. I''ll have Keith apany you."


    "Doesn''t Keith need to follow you around?"


    "Don''t worry, Ruby will be there with me. She understands the technology. It''ll be easier for her to make notes once she goes back as well."


    I nodded. I did not feel uneasy about Ruby, but if Keith followed me, I was afraid that Theo alone would be too busy.


    However, if I refused, Theo would definitely be distracted and worry about me and Munchkin.


    Hence, I finally agreed to it.


    "But you must be back before dinner. There''s a dinner party in the evening. I need you to apany me to attend it."


    Speaking of which, Theo''s face looked slightly unnatural.


    "Ruby called you earlier about the dinner party, right?"


    Theo''s eyes turned away as he took a sip of coffee. "If she''s still like this when we get back home, I''ll have to ask her to leave." "Take your time. Give her some time too." I took Theo''s hand.


    I knew what Ruby meant.


    It was not


    to attestrange for a boss、 to attend a dinner party with their et


    female subordinate, especially for a business dinner like this.


    Even if everyone was dressed more formally, the talk was all about work. Hence, it was normal to bring a female subordinate.


    Only on this special asion, the person Theo brought would also serve as the femalepanion of thepany''s leader. If theText ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    el


    subordinate was not a capable


    assistant, it would be someone who


    shared a closer rtionid not want


    with the leader. Ruby naturally did not want to let go of this opportunity.


    She forgot that Theo and she were notpatible.


    The reason I advised Theo to give Ruby some more time is that I had also seen Ruby''s ability.


    I had asked Keith before I came.


    Ruby had no problems in her work except that she usually liked to pester Theo. Her professional ability was top in the industry.


    This statement could be verified in this business trip to France. If she did not really have the skills, Theo definitely would not have brought her along.
