The More the Merrier novel Chapter 636

Chapter 636 A Look Of Distressed

“Yes, sir!” Bradley loudly replied before starting the engine and driving toward the village.

At that, Ethen quickly told the bodyguards to follow the car, and they actually ran after the car.

Soon, the only ones left were Shaun and Kingsley, who shared a look with each other.

“Are we going too?”

Kingsley gave Shaun a side-eye, who then frowned and laughed at the same time.

“Let’s go.”

As he ran after the car, he told himself it was just a scenic jog.

Hence, Kingsley had no choice but to follow him.

The scenery around them was beautiful, so the two men who rarely exercised did not think that it was too tough of a trip as they jogged after the car to Mary’s place.

The moment they laid eyes on Mary’s house, they froze.

It was a truly dilapidated house.

Even Arissa stiffened when she saw the state of Mary’s place.

Other than the main house, which was constructed with concrete and still looked firm, the rest of the buildings were huts.

Arissa had grown up in the countryside as a child, but even then, she had only seen houses like Mary’s when she was very young.

Later in her childhood, most families began building concrete houses. Even the impoverished ones who could not afford concrete houses would build brick houses instead of huts that would be easily blown away by a strong gust of wind.

“Issa, this is where we live.”

Even Mary was feeling embarrassed by the sight of her house.

Her voice snapped Arissa back to her senses, and she said, “Grandaunt, let me step out of the car first.”

She then helped the children down from the car.

Gavin, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse were stunned by the house as well.

Jesse then asked, “Is this house safe to live in?”

Why does it look like it’s going to collapse at any time?

Indeed, it was not a safe place to stay in, but it served its purpose as a shelter from the rain and the sun.

“This is the old house,” was all Arissa could say to her daughter.

Then, she walked over to help Mary down from the car.

Benjamin, too, came out of the car to help her out.

Mary gave them smiles as she nodded at them. “I’ll go inside. It’s a small place, and there’s nowhere to sit inside, so please wait for me outside for a while.”
