Chapter 855
“Are you hungry, Great-grandaunt?” Tim lay on the bed and fixed his gaze on Mary.
The old woman patted the boy's head. “I'm not very hungry yet. What's the matter?” His skin seems to have
become a little fairer after coming here.
Upon smiling, he answered, “I want to feed you!”
“I don't need you to feed me. I can eat perfectly fine by myself.” Mary smiled, delighted by the boy's kind offer.
Zachary approached her too and stood next to his brother. Then, he advised, “If you want to eat, let Tim feed you,
Great-grandaunt. He misses you so much!”
Staring at the boys, she said, “I suppose I can eat now.”
In order to make the boys happy, she made the decision to eat now.
Both Zachary and Tim were overjoyed. They quickly placed the food and a bowl of soup in front of her.

“Let's start with the soup first!” Mary smiled.
When the rest of the children saw that, they hopped over as well. “We want to feed Great-grandaunt too!”
Mary looked at the children affectionately and merrily.
“Be careful, Sweethearts! Don't accidentally burn yourself!” Without delay, Arissa rushed over to them and set up a
small table at the end of the bed.
William helped out too. “Be careful, Tim. It's hot! Let me handle it, Mrs. Graham.”
When he finished speaking, he brought over the bowl of soup and put it on the side. “It's still pretty hot.”
Arissa and the children stood at the side.
“Just wait for a while. The soup is still hot, so be careful not to let it spill on you and get burned!” she reminded.
“Mommy, we want to feed Great-grandaunt!” All six of the children were hoping they could do it.
With a grin, Arissa glanced at them. “I'll let you all do it, no worries. I won't fight with you all for the chance to do it!”
The children promptly grinned happily.
When William and Mary saw that, they couldn't help but smile, too. The kids were simply too adorable.
William proceeded to stir the soup, which was different from the one he had made during the morning.
“It smells so nice!” Jesse took a whiff of the aroma.
The others couldn't help but sniff the fragrance in the air, too.
William, Arissa, and Mary were amused.
“I'll just have one bowl. They can have the rest!” The old woman gazed at the children lovingly.
With a grin, Arissa said, “This is for you, Grandaunt. You don't have to mind them.”
“It's fine! Let them have some.” Mary gestured for William to serve the children the soup.
“We can finish the rest once you're full, Great-grandaunt! We still want to feed you!” said Oliver gleefully.
Even though the soup smelled tasty, he knew it was for Mary and wanted her to have it all to herself.
The old woman chuckled. “All right, I'll drink first!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter measuring the temperature of the soup and determining it to be warm, Arissa let Tim feed Mary. “All right,
Tim. Go ahead!”
“Okay!” The boy accepted the bowl, took a spoonful of soup, and blew at it to cool it down before feeding it to Mary.
“Take it easy, Great-grandaunt!”
“Okay!” In response, Mary lowered her head and drank it.
“Is it good, Great-grandaunt?” Jasper lay on the bed and grinned at her.
“It is!” With a nod, she smiled. “While Tim is feeding me, you all should drink some too! There's no need to wait for
me to finish because I can only finish a bowl of it!”
Glancing at her, Zachary replied softly, “We'll wait for Tim to finish before drinking it together, Great-grandaunt!”
Oliver and Jesse nodded too. “We'll wait for Tim!”
A chuckle was heard from Gavin. “Be careful when you drink the soup, Great-grandaunt! We'll drink together later.”
Mary nodded with contention.
Sitting at the side with nothing else to do, Arissa watched the children take turns feeding Mary.
William and Darius, who were sitting in the corner drinking coffee, gestured for her to come over.
