The More the Merrier novel Chapter 590

Chapter 590 Tim Is Visibly Nervous

“I didn’t have the money to support his studies. Besides, he saved all money that he earned for my treatment instead of going to school…”

Feeling heartbroken, Mary lowered her head and wiped her tears away.

“Tim has suffered a lot with us. Hence, I think it’s best to let him go to school. If he delays his studies any longer, I’m worried he can’t catch up with others. Okay, I’ll go to Dellmoor with you…”

Arissa was delighted upon hearing it. “Well, we’ll tie you up to bring you back even if you refuse. I let you know earlier on so that you could be mentally prepared!”

Mary almost burst into laughter. “You silly goose!”

“I’ll treat you as my family member and you’ll be my grandaunt from now on!”

Feeling touched by Arissa’s sincerity, Mary nodded non-stop. “Sure, I’m glad you’re willing to accept me.”

“Well, it’s our good fortune to meet a kind-hearted woman like you!”

Wrapping her arm around Mary’s, Arissa continued to coax Mary to put her mind at ease.

“Grandaunt, you can stay with us after you’ve recovered. Besides, we’re always busy working and don’t have enough time to take care of the kids. Hence, we’ll be glad if you can help us. If you can’t get used to living in Dellmoor, feel free to come home for some time before returning to the city.”

After a while, Arissa added, “We can bring our kids here during the holidays. By the way, I’ve bought the house but rarely stay here. If you don’t mind, can you occasionally clean the house for us when you’re here?”

“Sure!” Mary nodded with a beam.

“Grandaunt, Tim learned a lot by working on the farm with you. He is lucky to have met you. I can’t imagine what will happen to him if he is sold by a human trafficker and tortured by others in another country. Hence, I’m grateful that he’s in good shape.”

Arissa added, “Besides, Tim has lived a better life than that of other kids from poor villages. I grew up in a village when I was young. Despite being poor, Tim has learned to be more understanding than other kids. Am I right?”

“Yes, Tim is a considerate child. After James passed away, I fell sick and couldn’t work much. Since then, Tim has helped me with nearly everything. My useless son never cared about us. All the more so, he even asked for money and snatched Tim’s hard-earned money…”

Mary was irritated and heartbroken when she recalled how Raphael treated them as though they were his enemies.

Arissa was shocked upon realizing that Raphael wasn’t as good as Tim described.
