Chapter 851 Be Late âI think we should still head upstairs, Great-grandaunt. You should lie down more!â Worry was scribbled on Zacharyâs face. Oliver and Jesse nodded.
âYouâll feel better if you lie down. Letâs go upstairs.â
âGo on upstairs, Great-grandaunt. We wonât play anymore. Once you get better, weâll bring you down here again and have fun together! We can even tour around Dellmoor!â Gavin advised.
Tim, too, nodded. âYou should listen to them, Great-grandaunt. Letâs head upstairs and rest.â âAll right, all right. Letâs head upstairs!â With a smile, Mary nodded, not wanting to let the children worry.
Turning to Arissa, she said, âLetâs go, Issa!â With a nod, Arissa smiled and led Mary back to her ward. âCome on, kids!â All six children followed behind.
âSlow down, Mommy. Donât push it too fast or Great-grandaunt will feel uncomfortable!â one of them suggested. âOkay!â Arissa replied with a smile before slowing her speed down.
âIâm feeling fine. The operation was successful. My stomach doesnât hurt anymore now.â Upon smiling, Mary comforted the children. âYou guys donât have to be so apprehensive. Donât you see Iâm doing well right now?â
The children still stared at her with concern. âIn that case, if youâre feeling uncomfortable, Great-grandaunt, you must quickly let us know! You can let Mommy or Mr. Bailey know too!â
The old woman was pleased to hear the concern in the childrenâs voices. âOkay.â
After they all returned to her ward, the children helped her lie on the bed.
âAre you feeling uncomfortable anywhere, Grandaunt?â Arissa asked caringly as she tucked Mary in.
âIâm feeling fine. You and the kids donât have to worry about me. I feel recharged after taking a stroll downstairs!â The old woman smiled and waved her hand, non-verbally asking Arissa to rest, too.
The children surrounded the bed and stared at Mary.
âRest well, Great-grandaunt!â Gavin said.
She nodded. âYou all should rest too!â
As they spoke, Shaun dropped by and gave Mary a checkup. âIs it okay if I give you an injection right now, Mdm. Mary?â
âSure! Go ahead.â Mary nodded cooperatively.
When he saw Arissa and the children staring at the old woman worryingly, he smiled. âYou all should sit at the side. Mdm. Mary is doing fine. Itâs beneficial for the patientâs recovery if they spend time taking strolls from time to time.â
Arissa grinned. âI understand that, but I still canât help but worry.â
Shaun nodded, grabbed the needle, and gave the old woman an injection.
As for the children, they used the kettle inside the ward to boil her an egg. They then rubbed the egg on the needle bruise on the back of Maryâs other hand.
The kind gesture made the elderly woman feel very touched. The smile on her wrinkled face remained for a long time.
Seeing how diligent the children were, Arissa watched from the side and let them do their thing.
It was then Benjamin called.
She answered, âHello?â
âHave you gone to pick up the children?â he asked.
âYes. Weâre at Grandauntâs place right now.â With a grin, she watched as the children kept Mary company.
âOkay. I still have work I need to take care of here, so Iâll be there late!â Benjamin informed.
âNo need to rush. If they get hungry, Iâll buy something for them to eat. When I picked them up, I asked them if theyâd eaten, and they told me they ate some snacks in school during the afternoon, so they arenât hungry yet.â
âAll right, then. Donât just take care of the children. If youâre hungry, you should eat something too. Iâll be there once I wrap up my matters.â
âGot it. You should get back to work. Iâm hanging up now!â Arissa smiled.
âOkay.â
After the call ended, she washed some fruits and asked the children to eat them.
