Chapter 1716
Theo had already cback when | arrived at the villa.
There was only a lamp that was lit up in the living room when | entered the house. Theo was sitting on the corner
of the sofa, quietly turning the pages of a magazine.
| made snoise when | walked into the house. Theo looked up and saw me. Then, he put the magazine aside
and waved at me.
| ran into his arms. | could always find a sense of security in him. | wrapped my hands around his slim waist,
while he gently touched my face and asked, "How's everything going?"
"It was Julie who did it." My voice was calm yet gentle.
It seemed like it was exactly what Theo had expected too. He replied in a soft voice, "I see. So what are you
planning to do?"
I slowly left his embrace, then | touched my face and answered, "Julie is merely a pawn in this. If she can think of
taking advantage of Serena's death to threaten us, she could've done it earlier. Why did she wait for such a long
time? Someone must have talked to her."

While | said that, the faces of those people who held grudges againstwere flashing across my mind.
| thought about it and cup with the conclusion that there could only be one person.
"Who is it?" Theo looked atand gavea meaningful smile.
I was not in a hurry to tell him, so | said, I'm going to keep it a secret. You said you're going to letdeal with
this. What if you make the first move if | tell you who it is?"
Theo tapped my nose with his fingers, looked ataffectionately, and said, "You scheming woman."
"How can | not be cunning when I'm dealing with you, President Grant?" | smiled cheerfully.
| turned around and suddenly noticed Munchkin's photo that was on the shelf. It remindedof Munchkin, so |
said, "Oh, | forgot to ask Munchkin how he's been doing at school. It's a new environment for him, after all. I'm a
little worried."
Previously, Munchkin got into trouble when he was in kindergarten. What if...
It was at this moment Theo patted my hand and replied, "Don't worry. Cool Breeze Elementary School has a good
school ethos. The teachers will inform the parents if anything happens."
"| hope so."
Everything was good at Cool Breeze
Elementary School. It was just that
the school implemented the hoarding school management system and parents could only visit their children
during the weekends. | could only ask Munchkin how everything was when | visited him this weekend.
| stretched, rubbed my eyes, and said," Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow. It's late. We should go to bed."
"Are you just going to bed?" Theo stood up when I pulled him, but he still did not forget to tease me.
| shot a glance at him. | was exhausted, and | was not in the mood to argue with him." Yes. I'm tired. Maybe next
time."
"Are you that tired? Letcarry you, then."

unconsciously fell asleep in such a short time.
| seemed to hear someone muttering while
| was in a daze, "How can you fall asleep like that? It looks like you're really tired."
After that, he gently laidon the bed. The bed was soft. As | got comfortable in bed, | fell asleep without
knowing what happened after that.

"Are you awake now?"

"Breakfast is ready. Freshen yourself up, go downstairs, and eat your breakfast."

downstairs. He glanced atand said, "Wifey, you're too slow."
