The More The Merrier Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Good Afternoon

“Jesse, you can ask for my help if you can’t reach it,” Ethen said in a doting tone.

Grinning at him, Jesse replied, “I wanted to take some for Tim. Thank you, Mr. Frank.”

Then, she passed it to Tim.

Tim turned to her and said gently, “Thank you, Jesse.”

“You’re welcome! You should eat more, Tim.”

“Sure!”

Everyone beamed when they saw how well the six children got along.

The sight of the six cute kids sitting together was too adorable for words.



After lunch, Arissa brought Mary to the latter’s room to rest. The children tagged along and helped to make the

bed.

“All right. You should go and rest too,” Mary urged after lying down on the bed.

Arissa pulled the covers over the older woman and led the children out of the room.

“Come on, Sweethearts. Let’s go upstairs and rest.”

Tim glanced at her. He wanted to stay with Mary.

“Ms. York, can I sleep here with Great-grandaunt?”



Crouching down next to him, Arissa said gently, “She needs to rest. If you’re here, she won’t be able to sleep well.”

“That’s right, Tim. You’ll distract her if you stay. Come and sleep with us upstairs. You haven’t explored the rooms

upstairs yet!” Jesse persuaded, tugging at Tim’s hand.

Pulling at Tim’s other hand, Gavin added, “Yes, let’s go upstairs. The help will be here to take care of Great-

grandaunt, so don’t worry.”

Just then, Edwin walked over with a housekeeper. “You don’t have to worry, Ms. York. I’ve asked someone to keep

watch at the door and attend to Mdm. Mary if she needs anything.”

Arissa nodded.



“Tim, let’s go upstairs and rest. Is that okay?” she asked, wanting to hear what he thought.

Tim bit his lip. He wanted to go upstairs, but he was also worried about Mary.

Perhaps it was because he was in an unfamiliar place and was still not used to it.

Sighing, Arissa caressed his head and led him into the room.

“In that case, why don’t you sleep here with your great-grandaunt first, okay?”

“Thank you, Ms. York!” he answered, looking up at her.

Smiling at him tenderly while patting his head fondly, she responded, “You’re welcome.”

“What’s the matter?”

Hearing their voices, Mary raised herself slightly while in bed and looked down.

“Tim wants to sleep here with you. He’s probably still not used to it,” Arissa said with a smile.

Mary broke into a grin and motioned for Tim to climb onto the bed. “Come on over, Tim. Sleep next to me.”

Nodding, Tim hurried over at once.

Gavin and the other kids exchanged glances, then ran over as well.

“Great-grandaunt, can we sleep with you too?”

Taken aback, Mary turned toward Arissa.

Gazing at the five children and thinking that it would be better for them to accompany Tim, Arissa did not object.

“You can stay, but remember not to disturb Great-grandaunt while she’s resting.”

The children nodded.

“Get into bed quickly and get some rest,” Arissa urged, a smile tugging at her lips.

The five children climbed onto the bed and lay next to Tim.

After tucking them in, Arissa waited for a while before leaving the room.

When Benjamin came out of the study and saw no sign of the children, he asked, “Where are the kids?”

“They’re inside Grandaunt’s room. They wanted to sleep with her,” Arissa answered.

His eyes flicked toward the room.

Glancing at him, she continued, “It was Tim who wanted to sleep with her, then Gavin and the others clamored to

stay too.”



Benjamin murmured an acknowledgment, then said to the housekeeper, “Take good care of them.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham.”

Turning to Shaun, he asked, “Do you need to check on Grandaunt now?”

“That’s all right. I’ll check on her after she wakes up and administers a shot.”

Benjamin nodded, then grabbed Arissa’s hand. “Let’s go upstairs and rest.”

Kingsley, Shaun, and Ethen widened their eyes, their curiosity piqued.

Arissa nodded at the trio and followed Benjamin upstairs, her cheeks flushed scarlet.

Once they were upstairs, she freed her hand from his and said stiffly, “Good afternoon, Graham.”

With that, she turned and went to the kids’ room.

Benjamin stared at her coldly as she walked away, then strode forward and followed her.
