We finally returned to the homestay, and Lola was delighted to see Harriet back. "Harriet, it's good that you’re fine."
"I'm going to take a shower. I stink all over." Harriet cursed and got onto the elevator.
Munchkin flew into Theo’s arms when he saw him. "Daddy."
Delia also came over. Seeing that both of us had returned safely, she smiled brightly. "Wanda, President Grant, it's great that you both are back safely."
"Thank you for taking care of Munchkin."
I would not have been able to go to Theo unhindered if she had not been here.
Hearing this, Delia waved her hand and smiled lightly. "It's nothing."
"By the way, Marius, thank you very much for this time. I’ll treat you to dinner when we go back to Whaldorf City." I turned my gaze to Marius.
He put both hands in his pockets and said calmly, “You’ve already thanked me. No need to say thank you again. But I’ll accept the meal."
"Delia, you should join us when the time comes."
"Let's go back to the room first," Theo interrupted me.
I almost forgot that we had not washed up yet, so I nodded. "We'll go back to our room first. You guys go to rest too."
I felt really sorry after seeing the dark circles around Marius’s eyes.
After saying that, I brought Munchkin and followed Theo upstairs.
"Sleep after your shower. You definitely didn’t manage to sleep well yesterday on the mountain, no?" Theo’s expression was distressed when he saw my face that was haggard from the vicissitudes of life.
He held my face and planted a kiss on my lips. "You too. You go on ahead first. You were in the mountain for a far longer time. It's time to wash up."
Theo thought for a moment. "Are you starting to get annoyed with me?"
"No. Regardless, go and wash up quick."
I pushed Theo into the bathroom, and then I sat down.
Munchkin was playing by himself, while the expression on Mr. Carter’s face when he saw me appeared in my mind. It seemed strange.
