Several times, Munchkin wanted me to go back and rest first, but I did not want to spoil his fun and insisted that he finish choosing what he wanted before we left.
The conditions we had created for Munchkin were relatively good. However, I also did not want Munchkin to develop the habit of spending money recklessly.
Hence, I definitely could not let Keith accompany him alone in the mall.
According to Keith's character, while one could not say that he completely spoiled Munchkin, it was still spoiling.
He would pay out of his own pocket if Munchkin said he wanted something. This would cause Munchkin to form a bad habit.
Hence, every time Munchkin had chosen what he wanted, he had to bring it to me. Only after I gave my permission could he pay for it.
About three or four hours later, we finally returned home. Only when I saw the clock at home did I realize that it had actually taken so long.
It was a good thing we had a maid at home. Otherwise, we would all be starving right now.
I wanted to keep Keith for dinner, but he insisted on going back to the office.
I could not persuade him, so I made him take some fruit and snacks back.
When I got in the car, I told him again and again to remember to leave work on time and not to work overtime with Theo.
He agreed, but I knew he would not do it.
After I saw Keith off, I returned to the house. The maid stepped forward and handed me two letters.
"Madam, the things you bought a few days ago have arrived. I’ve put all the parcels in the storage room for you, and they've been disinfected. Also, here are two letters. I thought it was better to give them to you directly."
"Thank you for your hard work, Caroline."
I took the letters and looked at them. One was Theo's company mail.
Some of the more important mail still had to be sent in the form of letters. It was slow, but personally, I quite liked this kind of office process.
