Chapter 293 We Missed You

They only found out on their way here? If so, why did they come back in advance? Could it be that Arissa asked them to come back?

Benjamin narrowed his eyes at the thought of that, much to Kingsley’s amusement.

“Are you seriously not happy that they care about you?”

Benjamin shot him a cold glare. “Mind your own business!” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“Whatever, I’m going to play with the kids now!” Kingsley said and began walking toward the door.

“Don’t let them do anything crazy!” Benjamin called out to him from his desk.

Kingsley looked back at him and replied with a smile, “Kids need to be more active to ensure proper growth, Boss! I mean, just look at Gavin! Doesn’t he look a lot happier now? He used to be so quiet when he was around you all the time. Heck, he even got—”

He quickly stopped himself from saying any further when he noticed the warning glare from Benjamin. “I-I’ll be on my way now!” he blurted while running toward the dining room.

Benjamin did notice that Gavin had changed significantly for the better.

Hearing the kids chatting happily in the dining room brought a smile to his face.

Arissa was still a little unused to seeing the beautiful chandelier in the room when she woke up. It took her a while to remember where she actually was.

She turned to her side and lay lazily in bed, completely unaware that the kids were already home.

It wasn’t until she noticed the smell of the milk that she realized the kids had returned.

Arissa quickly got out of bed when she heard the sound of their laughter coming from downstairs. After washing her face and changing into a fresh set of clothes, she stood by the stairs and watched them play with Kingsley for a while.

“Hey, sweethearts!” Arissa called out to them while making her way down.

“Ah, Mommy’s awake!” Jesse exclaimed excitedly and ran toward her.

The other four joined in as well. “Mommy!”

“We’ve missed you, Mommy!”

All five of them threw themselves at her the moment she got to the bottom of the stairs.

They had the smell of milk on them as they cuddled up in her embrace.

Arissa hugged them tightly as she replied, “Aww, I’ve missed you kids too!”

“Hehe!” The kids smiled happily at her.

“Are you hungry, Mommy? Mr. Whitley made us a lot of food! There’s milk too!” Gavin asked.

Arissa ruffled his hair as she replied, “Now that you’ve mentioned it, I am a little hungry!”

“You can go sit down in the living room, Mommy! I’ll bring you the food!” Gavin shouted while running off to fetch the food.

“I’ll go help out too!”

“Me too!”

“Count me in!”

Oliver and Jasper too, followed him into the kitchen.

Noticing that Jesse was about to join them as well, Arissa quickly scooped her into her arms. “You don’t have to help with the food, Sweetheart. Your brothers can handle it, so you stay right here and keep me company instead. I want to see if you’ve been eating well lately.”

“I’ve been eating a lot, Mommy! Even Grandpa was shocked by how much I ate when we were at his place!” Jesse said.

Arissa gave her a pat on the head and asked, “Did you have a good time over at Grandpa’s?”

Jesse nodded and replied with a pout, “I did! I’ve just been missing you, Mommy!”

Hearing that put a smile on Arissa’s face as she carried Jesse to the living room.

“Hello, Mrs. Graham!” Kingsley greeted Arissa upon seeing her.

“You can just call me Arissa!” she said after a brief pause.

“No can do! Boss will kill me if he hears me addressing you by name!” Kingsley replied jokingly.
