The Woman From Hell

Chapter 701

I glanced at my phone. Half-past ten was not considered too late. I planned to take a look at Munchkin in his room.

Worried that Munchkin would be too afraid to sleep in an unfamiliar environment or could not find the light switch when he went to the toilet in the middle of the night, Theo had placed a nanny in his room.

I opened the door and the nanny, who was lying on the bed, woke up.

She switched on the lights, and when she saw it was m e, she immediately tried to get out of bed.

I reached out to stop her and whispered, "I'm only here to take a look because I was worried."

The nanny nodded with a smile. "Munchkin is sleeping very soundly. Don't worry, I'll take care of him."

I pursed my lips. "If he has a nightmare at night and is looking for me, don't worry about disturbing me even i f I'm asleep.

"Alright, Mrs. Grant. I understand."

Afraid that I would wake Munchkin up, I did not enter the bedroom to check on him. I explained a few more things to the nanny before leaving.

I stopped in my tracks when I passed by the study.

Theo was still busy at work at this hour. It seemed like he had a lot of work to do.

I sighed lightly and went downstairs to the kitchen. I poured a glass of water before coming back up again, knocking on the door of the study.

"Come in." The man’s low and sexy voice came from the study.

I pushed the door in and saw Theo sitting in his office chair with a pile of documents in front of him.

"I suddenly feel like I've been transported to ancient times." I walked over and put the glass on the desk." And you're the emperor."

Theo laughed and put down his pen, holding my hand. "You can’t sleep, my queen?"

I laughed. "When do you plan to rest?”

Theo was not in his 20s anymore, and coupled with his bad stomach, staying up late had affected his health.
