Chapter 749 Are We Really Coming Tomorrow Morning âLetâs go back first. Your great-grandaunt wonât be able to rest easy with you all here,â Benjamin said to the children as he got to his feet.
âLetâs go home, Sweethearts. Iâll bring you all here again to visit your great-grandaunt tomorrow morning!â Arissa urged as well. Only then did the six children reluctantly bid Mary goodbye.
âGoodbye, Great-grandaunt! Rest well!â âOkay!â Mary regarded them with a smile, affection written all over her face.
âYou should all go home. Iâll be at the hospital, keeping Mdm. Mary company,â Shaun reassured the family with his hands in the pockets of his white coat.
âThank you, Mr. Bailey!â Gratitude suffused Arissa. Fortunately, weâve got an acquaintance who works as a doctor. Otherwise, we wouldnât be able to go home with peace of mind.
âItâs nothing. All this is my job, so Iâve long since gotten used to it,â Shaun replied, grinning from ear to ear. Benjamin swept a gaze over the man.
âKeep an eye on things at night!â
âWill do!â Nodding, Shaun saw them out. âGo and rest, Mr. Bailey. Thereâs no need to see us out,â Arissa remarked courteously upon noticing that the man was getting into the elevator with them.
âIâm going downstairs for dinner, not seeing you all out, Arissa. Weâre just going the same way,â Shaun explained smilingly. At once, embarrassment inundated Arissa.
Meanwhile, Benjamin shot Shaun a glare. Smirking, Shaun averted his gaze. Wow. He has really gotten it bad for her that he canât bear to see her suffering the slightest discomfiture!
Arissa glanced at the two men before she looked away, lowering her head to gaze at the children. She caressed their heads. All six children lifted their heads one by one and stared at her, adorable beyond words.
Arissa beamed at them tenderly. âDo you have something to say, Mommy?â Jasper inquired.
âNope!â Arissa answered with a smile.
âWhy did you stroke my head, then?â
Giggling, Oliver eyed her.
âMy sweethearts are cute, so I love petting your heads!â Arissa teased in a gentle voice.
At that, all six children giggled.
Shaun was also enchanted by the childrenâs adorable expressions.
He crouched and caressed their petite faces.
âHow about staying tonight to keep your great-grandaunt company with me, Sweethearts?â
The children eyeballed him, truly desiring to stay.
âMr. Bailey, Iâve finally persuaded them to go home after expending much effort, so please donât mess things up!â Arissa quipped in amusement.
Shaun chuckled. âBenjamin wonât allow it even if I want to keep them here!â
Snorting, Benjamin prompted the six children, âGet into the car, kids. Itâs time to go home.â
Gavin peeked at him.
Pouting, he called out to his siblings, âTim, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, Jesse, letâs get into the car!â
âOkay! Hurry up, Mommy!â
The children trotted out. At the same time, they even glanced back over their shoulders and hurried Arissa.
âWeâll be going back, Mr. Bailey. See you!â
âHave a safe drive home, Arissa!â Shaun waved at her.
Subsequently, Arissa quickly chased after the children.
Benjamin likewise lengthened his stride to keep up with them, afraid that he would be left behind.
Shaun was all smiles as he watched them.
What a harmonious sight! Benjaminâs becoming more and more like us ordinary folks!
He waited until their car had driven away before going to the cafeteria to eat.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 748 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You âWhy are we going home so early, Mommy? We didnât even have enough time to play with Great-grandaunt!â
Jesse stuck out her lower lip, her eyes fixated on Tim. Tim really wanted to keep Great-grandaunt company!
âYour great-grandaunt prodded us to go home because she wanted to rest. Weâll go and visit her again tomorrow!â Arissa coaxed.
âAre we really coming tomorrow morning, Ms. York?â
Tim remembered that they went to school directly that morning without going to visit Mary. Therefore, he was worried that the same would happen tomorrow.
Stroking his head, Arissa replied gently, âYup. Iâve already promised your great-grandaunt, even. But weâll have to wake up earlier tomorrow morning.
Otherwise, we wonât have time to do so.â
