When Anne grew up, she would naturally understand things. At the moment, if I told her too much, she would only feel even more pressured. I simply fed her some peas, one of her favorite foods, and gave Emma a look, asking her to watch over Anne. Emma diverted Anne's attention.

As I turned around, I noticed that Aaron's face was dark.

I had to make fun of him and asked, "You're not actually jealous of her teacher, are you?"

Aaron narrowed his eyes as he stroked his chin. In a matter-of-fact tone, he retorted, "It hasn't been long since she entered primary school, yet she already favors her teacher more than me. I can't believe that there's someone in this world who can compare to my charm. I must meet him. Tomorrow, I'll pick Anne up from school instead."

"Don't do anything rash to scare her teacher away. I've already asked Freya about him. Mr. Clark isn't a bad person. It's rare for Anne to open up to someone. Don't screw this up for her," I nagged at Aaron. "Fine, fine. I know my limits." Aaron waved his hand and directly interrupted me. He continued, "Let's talk about you instead. You haven't asked me to take care of anything in forever. Come on, what do you need me to do now?"

"I knew I wouldn't be able to hide anything from you," I said as I shrugged my shoulders. Picking up my wine glass, I gave him a toast as I requested, "Let's do business together!"

"Business? What kind of business are you talking about? Aren't you the head of a law firm already? You're also the wife of the Roberts Group's leader. Do you even need me to teach you how to do business?" Aaron said jokingly. His shrewd eyes kept scanning over me, as if wanting to discern my real thoughts.
