Chapter 705 Be In Control Of The Finances
The six kids were standing around the hospital bed and chatting with Mary by the time she returned. Arissa decided
to sit down and join them when she saw how happy Mary looked.
“I need to take a nap, and the kids have been keeping me company all day at the hospital. You should all go get
some rest, Issa,” Mary said.
Arissa flashed her a smile. “You can go ahead and take a nap, Grandaunt. I’ll wait till you fall asleep before I leave
with the kids. Would you like to use the bathroom beforehand?”
“Yes, I do,” Mary replied as she climbed out of bed.
Arissa quickly reached out to hold her steady, but Mary gently brushed her hands off and said with a chuckle, “I can
walk on my own now, Arissa. If you keep holding on to me like this, I might end up forgetting how to walk.”
“All right. Watch your step, Grandaunt,” Arissa replied and stepped to the side.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe six kids then helped make the bed while she was in the bathroom.
“Do you feel cold, Grandaunt?” Arissa asked as she gently tucked Mary in afterward.
“No, it’s just right. Make sure to get some rest later, okay?” Mary replied.
The six kids nodded in unison. “Okay!”
Arissa waited until Mary had fallen asleep before bringing them to Benjamin’s office.
Although Benjamin rarely used the office, he had someone clean it on a daily basis. As such, the air inside wasn’t
musty at all.
“Mrs. Graham, you and the kids can take a nap in here. I’ll be right outside, so just call out to me if you need
anything,” Edwin said after adjusting the temperature.
“There’s a couch here, Edwin. How about you lay down for a bit? Or would you prefer to rest at home instead?”
Arissa asked when she saw him leaving.
“I’ll be heading back at three in the afternoon, so I guess I’ll be taking the couch,” Edwin replied with a smile.
“I’ll fetch you a blanket, then,” Arissa said as she brought the kids into the office.
The lounge looked rather simple with only a bed and a wardrobe.
Even so, it was really comfortable due to its spaciousness and warm atmosphere.
“All right, it’s time for you kids to go pee. We’ll all be taking a nap here today!”
Arissa then brought Edwin a blanket before returning to the lounge.
The kids nodded obediently and ran off to use the restroom.
“We’re done, Mommy!” they called out to her when they returned a few minutes later.
“Go on, get in bed,” Arissa said as she went to use the restroom as well.
“Hurry up and join us, Mommy!” the six kids shouted excitedly when she came out of the restroom.
“Hurry up, Ms. York!” Tim called out to her with a smile.
Arissa’s eyes lit up when she heard that, and she quickly joined them in bed.
“Oh, you all smell so good!” she exclaimed as she hugged them tightly and gave them a kiss each.
For some reason, Arissa really loved the scent of her kids.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA smile formed on Edwin’s lips when he heard them giggling from outside the lounge.
It is as I expected… The kids are at their happiest only when their mother is around. I’m glad Gavin is laughing so
happily!
“All right, that’s enough fooling around for now. Go to sleep,” Arissa said as she lay down in the middle with three of
them on each side.
“Mommy, do you like Daddy?” Gavin asked.
Zachary and the others all looked at her curiously upon hearing that.
“Yes, I do,” Arissa replied with a nod.
Gavin broke into a wide grin, and Tim’s eyes lit up with excitement as well.
“You mustn’t let your guard down even if you like him, Mommy! You need to make sure that he likes you too,”
Zachary reminded her.
Arissa gave him a little pinch on the nose. “I know. I have you kids to help keep an eye on him, don’t I?”
Zachary simply chuckled in response.
“We don’t object to you two being together, but you have to be in control of the family’s finances! You can’t really
trust rich people like him!” Oliver added.
“Look at you, talking about finances like a grown-up!” Arissa gave him a gentle smack on the forehead.
“I won’t object to you two dating as long as Daddy treats you well, Mommy,” Jasper chimed in as well.
