The More the Merrier novel Chapter 252

Chapter 252 Let The Children Keep Him Company

Arissa was relieved to hear the children’s happy voice and, at the same time, happy to hear that Darius liked the kids.

“I have something going on right now, so I can’t go. Your daddy’s also not available, so we’re not having dinner with you guys. We’re not going back either, so be nice and listen to your grandpa.”

“What happened, Mommy? Why aren’t you guys coming home?” Zachary was astonished.

At the same time, Gavin also heard Zachary when he came over to call him.

Mommy’s not coming back?

“Why aren’t you coming home, Mommy?” Gavin asked as well.

“We have a social event to attend, so I doubt we can go back. You guys wash up and rest early. You’ll definitely see me tomorrow morning.”

Arissa did not tell them Benjamin was hospitalized so they would not worry.

“Then don’t drink too much at night, Mommy. Stay safe!” Zachary urged.

“Don’t worry, Mommy. We’ll be going back after dinner,” Gavin said to Arissa.

Arissa smiled. “You guys can stay there overnight. There’s no need to hurry back since we’re not there. Stay there and keep Grandpa company. Tomorrow’s the weekend anyway, so spend some more time with him.”

Arissa figured it was a good idea since she was in the hospital and could not spend time with them.

So, instead of the children staying at home alone, it was better for them to spend time with Darius.

“Okay, Mommy!” Gavin nodded.

“Mommy, Grandpa’s actually eager to see you. It’s a shame that you can’t make it. He asked the chef to make a lot of delicious food and even asked us what you like to eat!” Zachary told her.

Arissa smiled. “Maybe next time. I’ll pay him a visit when I’m free. So, tell Grandpa that we can’t join him for dinner because of the social event.”

Arissa did not expect Darius to want to meet her that quickly, so she was a little unprepared.

On top of that, Benjamin was still in the hospital, so there was no way she could leave.

At the very least, Benjamin needs to be there when we go and see his father. Besides, Benjamin has never even thought of bringing me to meet his parents, so it’d be inappropriate to meet his father out of the blue.

“Okay! I’ll go tell Grandpa right now!”

Zachary handed the phone to Gavin and ran over to Darius.
