The More the Merrier novel 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.”
