Seeing that I was obviously relieved, Grayson said with a smile, "What were you thinking? You're clearly worried about him, yet you're deliberately ignoring him. You're too undecided in nature and that's not good."
I rubbed my nose. It was indeed my problem, so I had no way to refute it.
"Although Grant Corporation won't go bankrupt, this matter can greatly affect its constitution if not handled properly. When that happens, people who have been coveting Grant Corporation for a long time will inevitably work together and deal another blow. If he can't take it, then the company will fall. He’s under great pressure right now, Wanda. You're a couple, so you should get through tough times together and cheer him on."
I nodded. "I will."
I had listened to what Cassey said and became deeply aware of how capricious I was.
Petra was done cooking at almost 11 o'clock.
Seeing her walking out of the kitchen, I said to her, "I'm going to Grant Corporation to send Theo his lunch, Mom. Is there a lunch box at home?"
"Yeah, we have plenty." Petra was overjoyed to see that I had figured things out. "They're all insulated lunch boxes. Let me go get them for you."
She soon returned with plenty of insulated lunch boxes. I could tell at one glance that they were all good-quality ones.
She made a lot of food, so even after taking Theo's portion, there was still plenty for the rest of us.
Cassey walked downstairs carrying Pudding in her arms. When she saw Petra bagging the insulated lunch boxes, she asked curiously, "Who are you sending the lunch boxes to?"
"I'm not sending them. Wanda is bringing lunch to Theo."
Cassey’s eyes turned in their sockets as she said with a smile, "You might as well pack two sets since we have plenty of insulated lunch boxes at home. It’ll be nice if Wanda can share a meal with him after delivering him lunch. If she waits until she finishes eating at home to bring it to him, then the dishes won't be as fresh by then."
Afraid that I would be hungry, Petra was a little hesitant. "How long would it take her to finish her lunch? She can just finish it at home before sending it to him."
I knew what Cassey was thinking about, so I said to her, “Mom, I think you should pack my portion as well. I don't feel that hungry yet anyway.”
