The More the Merrier novel Chapter 695

Chapter 695 We Still Want To Keep You Company

Edwin nodded as he observed Mary. She looks well. “Mr. Graham told me to make this soup as a tonic for you. Drink more of it. In fact, drink it whenever you feel hungry, even if it’s not time for your meals. It helps to energize your body.”

“I will. Sorry for the trouble!” Mary responded politely. “Not at all. I make this all the time. It doesn’t take much effort.” Edwin smiled.

“Please make more the next time so that they can have some too, Edwin,” Arissa requested.

“Sure. I’ll make a bigger batch tomorrow. This soup is good for children too since they’re growing.”

The butler chuckled as he gazed at the children lovingly.

“You can have some too, Mrs. Graham.”

Arissa beamed in response. “It’s okay. I’m not hungry.”

Then, Edwin glanced at the time. It was past eleven, which meant it would be lunchtime soon.

“Will you be having lunch at home or outside, Mrs. Graham?”

“I’ll just eat here at the hospital.”

“Very well. I’ll go to the kitchen and have the staff prepare the meal. What do you feel like having?”

Arissa was tickled. “Just get me anything since we’re eating outside of the house, Edwin. You can put more care into my meals when we’re at home. Right now, just do whatever that’s convenient!”

“That can’t do. You should be eating whatever you feel like eating!” the man insisted light-heartedly.

He then asked Mary what she wanted to eat.

The elderly woman told him she would have anything he got her.

“You can order food at the hospital, Mr. Whitley?”

Jesse gazed up at him, full of curiosity.

“Certainly!” answered Edwin as he turned to the six children. “What do you all feel like having?”

Zachary grinned. “How about we come with you?”

There’s also food at the hospital cafeteria.

“Sure! I’ll wait for you.”

Edwin then sat in a corner and waited for the children to finish their soup.

Seeing that, the children finished it as quickly as possible.

“Hurry up, Tim! We’ll be following Mr. Whitley!”

Jasper was exhilarated, although the food was not what he looked forward to most. He just wanted to take a stroll.
