The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 923

I had never spent National Day with so many people. I immersed myself in the lively atmosphere. I kind of knew now why having friends and family was so important.

A mundane and peaceful life was desirable.

After bustling about for almost the whole morning, food was ready in the afternoon and everyone came to the dining room.

Cassey was pregnant, so she had a big appetite. However, eating would not keep her mouth shut because she never once stopped talking since sitting a t the table.

Quinn had probably been alone for too long that she enjoyed talking to Cassey very much. The two got deeper and deeper into the conversation. They found more and more things they had in common with each other as they chatted, ignoring those around them completely.

Petra was in charge of putting food on everyone’s plates and urging them to eat more.

Grayson could not care less about others and was merely concerned about her. He constantly put food o n her plate, urging her to eat more.

There was suddenly a piece of meat on my plate.

When I looked up, I met Theo's tender eyes. I smiled. "D o you want me to overeat?"

I had already eaten a plate of food. If it were not because I was afraid of wasting food, I would have put down my cutleries and stopped eating a long time ago.

I certainly could not fit any more meat, but I could still manage to eat some vegetables.

Theo raised his eyebrows. "It's alright even if you overeat. There are several boxes of digestive tablets on the coffee table. Didn't you see them?"

I could not help but laugh. "Who prepared them?"

Theo darted Caleb a glance.

I followed his gaze and immediately knew why.

Caleb was afraid that Cassey would eat without restraint, so he prepared some digestive tablets in advance.

While listening to Cassey's laughter, I placed a piece of roasted beef on Theo’s plate. "Since you're worried about overeating, you should eat more too."

Theo chuckled. "Thanks, honey."

I blushed when he called me that. In order to conceal my embarrassment, I quickly got up to put food on other people's plates.

I put food on Petra's and Grayson's plates. They then glanced at me and smiled at each other.

The time was just right, and so were the people. When was the last time laughter had filled the villa?

After dinner, Petra and Quinn chased us out of the kitchen. They told us to sit down in the living room and have a chat.

"Let's watch some shows." Theo took the remote control and switched on the TV.

Therefore, everyone gathered to watch TV while chatting. Time flew by in the blink of an eye.

At six o’clock in the evening, Munchkin was already eager to watch the fireworks.

"Maybe serve desserts first," Grayson suggested.

"Sure.” Petra put the desserts on the coffee table. "We'll serve desserts first and have some more food. After that, we can watch the National Day show."

"Awesome!” Munchkin cheered.

We were far from the city center, and all the houses here were detached villas with yards. Hence, fireworks were allowed here.

Keith had bought a lot of fireworks a few days before National Day just for us to light them up.

Cassey put on her plus-size down jacket and ran to the yard.

She embraced Caleb's arm and asked innocently, "Will wishing on fireworks work?"

Caleb cast his eyes down and looked at her with tender eyes. "What's your wish?"

Cassey giggled in a silly manner. "I hope that our baby will be healthy, of course."

Caleb planted a kiss on her cheek. "Your wish will definitely come true, then."

I was happy to see how close they were.

When I looked up, I happened to meet Theo's deep abysmal eyes. I froze. "What's wrong?"
