My Boss My Secret Husband (Hazel and Logan) novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 

Deborah and James gave them permission and waited at the entrance. 

A few minutes later, the kids came back, each carrying a pet: a Labrador puppy and a kitten. 

“Daddy, can we?” Ellie asked, showing the black Labrador puppy she had in her arms. 

“Yeah, can we?” James added, showing the small orange kitten he was holding. 

“Hey.. wasn’t this supposed to be one pet for both of you?” Deborah asked, though she seemed amused because she had already imagined this scenario, where they would end up with two pets. 

“But…” The kids looked at each other and then pouted, trying to convince their parents to let them adopt both. 

“Hm… I don’t know. What do you think, love?” Deborah asked, looking at her husband. 

“Well… we have a big house, and if they’re going to be responsible…” he began, seeing how the kids‘ eyes. lit up. 

“We will!” Ellie said. 

“Yes, I promise,” James declared. 

The two adults exchanged a look before smiling. 

“If you’re going to be responsible, then I think we can adopt both,” Jayden said. 

“Yes!” James and Elizabeth shouted, jumping up and down. 

“But. Deborah began, making the kids look at her nervously, “The trick is that you both have to promise me two things.” 

“What things, Mommy?” Ellie asked, hugging her little puppy. 

“You have to take really good care of your new little friends.” 

“We promise,” the siblings said in unison. 

“And what’s the second thing?” Jayden asked. 

“That you both need to keep getting good grades,” she said, watching them nod with big smiles. “Because you both need to be good role models for your future little brother or sister.” 

“That’s right, you need to… wait, what?” Jayden looked at his beloved, mouth agape, noticing that she had a smile spread across her lips. 

“Mommy, what does that mean?” Ellie asked, confused because she didn’t understand. 

“Ellie, it means Mommy’s going to have a baby,” James said, jumping up and down with excitement. 

“That’s right, sweetie,” Deborah said, noticing that both kids jumped up to hug her. 

The pets whined a little from being squished. 

“Oops…” the kids said, stepping back from the hug and petting their pets to apologize.

“Well, first, let’s do the paperwork for your friends, buy what they need and their food, and then go home to celebrate the news about your new sibling,” Jayden said happily. 

With that said, they made their donation for the adoption and went to the store to buy food and toys for the new animals. 

“So, tell me… how did you find out?” Jayden asked playfully while the kids were picking out toys.
