I held my forehead and said, "This has nothing to do with her nature. It's just that sweets are not good for her teeth and skin."
"It doesn't even matter if she only eats once in a while," Freya said. She continued to defend her stance. Luckily, Zachary, who was rational, tried to persuade her, "Alright, Freya, don't interfere when Arianna is educating her child. You'll need to educate Oliver in the future."
Freya shrugged as she replied, "Alright."
After that, she raised her chin and pointed at Hendrix, who was still standing. "Where did the both of you go just now? Minnie said that you two went out early in the morning," Freya asked.
"We went out to settle something," I replied. After that, I turned to Hendrix and urged him, "Don't you have things to take care of? You go first," I said.
"Alright," Hendrix nodded. After saying goodbye to Freya and the others, he turned around and left the house.
As soon as he walked out, Freya asked, "It's only the first few days of the new day, and Hendrix has already started going back to work. Is he that busy?"
"The foreign investors do not celebrate the new year, and Hendrix also needs to entertain them. So, unfortunately, he has to leave. First, I hope that you don't mind," I explained.
Our guests were visiting our house in the new year. However, the owner was out meeting clients. To an outsider, it would seem rude.
Zachary waved his hand and said indifferently, "Work is more important."
Freya glanced at him and did not delve into it. She immediately changed the topic. "What do you think about what I just said?" She asked.
"What's that?" I asked with a confused look.
"Getting Anne a younger brother," Freya replied. She looked so passionate, immediately putting a fervent smile on her face. She continued saying, "Frankly speaking, Anne is quite lonely. Furthermore, Hendrix is so devoted to his career. In the future, the Roberts Group's business plan will definitely get bigger. There has to be someone inheriting it. Aren't you thinking of having another child?"
I almost felt dizzy listening to it. I replied helplessly, "It seems like you want to be involved in this matter."
