Chapter 766 Not Even After Midnight

“I think so,” Arissa said. I think so?

Gavin furrowed his brows, sensing something amiss. As the boy stared at Arissa, he wondered, Doesn’t Mommy work with Daddy in the office? How can she not know if Daddy’s still in the office or not?

“Mommy, did you fight with Daddy?”

“I didn’t. Don’t worry.”

After ruffling the boy’s hair, Arissa took the children’s bags and placed them on the couch. “Sweethearts, did your teacher give you any homework?”

“Yes, Mommy. Our teacher has given us homework,” Jesse quickly answered. “Wash your hands first. I’ll accompany you to finish them now.”

“Okay!” Jesse bobbed her head. The five older children all glanced at Arissa before running off to wash their hands. Edwin came out with washed fruits and asked, “Mrs. Graham, shall I prepare more food for you and the kids?”

Arissa had told Edwin that they were eating at the hospital, so Edwin had brought them food as well when he delivered food to Mary. “Edwin, it’s fine. If they get hungry later, I’ll make them some pasta,” Arissa replied.

Edwin nodded. “Mrs. Graham, feel free to ask anything from me.” “All right.” Arissa nodded. Edwin then left to look at the children.
