I pursed my lips, feeling a bit upset.
I did not know why he was unhappy, and I did not know whether he was unhappy because of me.
Theo continued reading his book on the couch. I did not want to say anything anymore, so I just got up and walked into the bathroom.
Once I was done showering, I lay down on the bed, getting ready to sleep.
After going walking so much, I would be lying if I said I was not tired.
Theo picked up his phone when it rang, but he did not say much. Instead, he got up and handed it to me. Then, he returned to the couch where he continued reading his
book.
I glanced at the phone. It was Petia. I held it up to my ear and asked, "What's wrong. Mom?"
"Wanda, Munchkin is having a fever again. It keeps coming and going. I'm a little worried." Petra sounded anxious.
He was having a fever again?
In the past, Munchkin would not have recurring fevers, not even when the seasons were changing.
I was a little worried too, but I was not in Whaldorf City at the moment. I had no way of bringing Munchkin to the hospital." Mom, ask a maid to bring Muchkin to the hospital. Don't worry too much, it might just be a cold. Perhaps he'll get better once the season has changed."
Petra sighed softly. "Alright, I'll ask someone to bring him to the hospital tomorrow. Your father and I have been too busy these days. Once you and Theo are done with your matters in Limbia, please come back quickly. As for you, don't just run around as you please. You should stay in Whaldorf City and learn how to manage the company. Your father and I are old.
We’re thinking it might be time to hand the business over to you and Cassey. You're both young, knowledgeable, and capable. We can rest assured if the company is passed to both of you."
I never thought that they would decide to hand the business to me, so I refused without thinking. "Mom, you know I don't like running around the workplace.
Besides, I have things I want to do too. Moreover, Xander and Cassey are both excellent. They’re more than capable. As long as you have them, you can pass some of your duties to them once you get tired.”
