Chapter 765 Half For Everyone
Jasper said, “Mommy, it’s fine. You came!” Gavin also said, “Mommy, we were just discussing if we should visit
Great-grandaunt in the hospital!”
Jesse chimed in as well, “Mommy, we knew you were going to come, so we waited for you here.” Arissa hugged
them and patted their heads. “I was too caught up with work that I lost track of the time. I’m sorry. If I’m late again,
call me.”
Arissa felt immensely apologetic. “Mommy, we don’t blame you for this at all! It’s not like you were very late. The
other kids just left,” Zachary consoled.
Nevertheless, Arissa still felt bad. She had broken her promise to her children many times, yet the children had
always forgiven her. “Are you hungry?”
The six children stared at her and beamed. “Come on. I’ll bring you to eat.”
After bidding the teacher goodbye, Arissa led the children away. The children also bade the teacher farewell,
waving their hands. “Mommy, let’s get takeaways and eat with Great-grandaunt instead!” Oliver suggested.
When Arissa saw that the other children were in agreement, she nodded. “Okay, we’ll get takeaways and eat with
Great-grandaunt in the hospital. What would you like to eat?”

great-grandaunt was going to be having her dinner.
“Buns will be fine.”
Tim nodded in agreement.
When Gavin saw someone selling buns near the school, he pointed at the person.
“Mommy, there are buns there.”
Arissa led the six children over.

After ordering buns with the children’s favorite fillings, she ordered a few bottles of milk for them as well.
Once she was done ordering their portions and a little extra, she brought them to the hospital.
“You can dig in first if you’re hungry; you don’t need to wait until we reach the hospital. I have plenty more with
me.”
Arissa was worried that the children would be hungry, so she asked them to start eating first.
“Let’s share for now. When we reach the hospital, we’ll eat with Great-grandaunt.”
Jasper was indeed quite hungry, so he took a bun and split it into six parts.
He even dropped a bit of the filling on his lap, but he quickly picked it up and ate it.
The others laughed at that.
Jasper then gave the portions to the rest of the children.
“Thanks, Jasper!”
After that, Jasper happily munched on his portion of the bun.
“Mommy, we don’t have enough for you. You should eat one whole bun!”
Arissa smiled at her children.
“All right!”
She then gave three more buns for them to share.
“Half for everyone. There’s no need for you to split them into such small portions. It won’t even be enough for you.
Remember, I bought plenty!”
Arissa took one out and began digging in. It was a small bun, and she soon finished it.
The children were delighted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGavin shared with Tim, Oliver shared with Zachary, and Jasper shared with Jesse.
They had a merry time eating the buns.
After having some buns and some milk in their stomach, they beamed.
“Sweethearts, was everything all right in school today?”
“Yes!”
“Did you learn anything new?”
The children took turns reporting their days, and Arissa enjoyed every moment of it.
It was a lively moment on their way there. Even after they arrived at the hospital and went to visit Mary, the
children remained energetic.
Arissa’s smile remained glued on her face as she watched the happy children.
The eight of them had dinner together.
It was only after Mary fell asleep did Arissa bring the children back to the Graham residence.
The children were perplexed when they saw that Benjamin was not home.
Gavin asked, “Mommy, is Daddy still working in the office?”
Arissa did not know how to respond to the boy’s question, for she did not know where Benjamin was.
She had only seen him at noon when she went upstairs to deliver documents; she did not know if Benjamin even
went back to the office after that.
