Chapter 1204: Did they welcome the wrong group?

Hours Later in Anteca...

"Grandma, you didn't have to come here yourself," Allison sighed faintly, seated on the bench with Old Mrs. Pierson. "You could've just waited for the kids to come home. I don't think it's good for you to travel and wait in the airport."

After all, the arrangement for this trip was that once they landed, the Bennets would stay for a day at the Old Pierson Residence. They agreed to this because Old Mrs. Pierson was already too old to travel. However, she wanted to see the children and welcome them home with a feast.

Butler Hubert smiled at Allison as the latter cast him a look. "I'm sorry, but I couldn't stop her."

"Allison, my child, you don't have to worry about me!" Old Mrs. Pierson chuckled loudly. "Age is simply a number. I feel younger than my age!"

"That's right, Allison." Charles, seated on the next bench, nodded. "Grandma Pierson is as strong as a cow! Right, Grandma?"

"Right, right! Haha!" Old Mrs. Pierson laughed gleefully, making Allison sigh once more.

Allison glanced at Charles, only to see her husband smirking back. She was simply worried that all the excitement and travel would tire Old Mrs. Pierson. However, Charles clearly had no issue with her coming along.

"It's been a while since my Renren has had a vacation, and from what I hear, it's the same for Atlas, Hugo, and Slater!" Old Mrs. Pierson exclaimed. "I want to see the refreshed look on their faces once they land. And I knew the travel from the airport and to my home would tire them."

"Uh... Grandma, I think you're mistaken. Hugo is already having a vacation-a long one," Charles corrected, but Allison quickly interrupted to steer the conversation away.

"Grandma..." Allison's eyes softened. "I'm sure they'll appreciate it. A five-day vacation... those kids work so hard. Honestly, I'm more worried they won't even know how to relax properly."

"That's why I sent more people with them!" Old Mrs. Pierson laughed proudly. "With good company, I'm certain they had lots and lots of fun!"
