Chapter 252 Let The Children Keep Him Company

Arissa was relieved to hear the children’s happy voice and, at the same time, happy to hear that Darius

liked the kids.

“I have something going on right now, so I can’t go. Your daddy’s also not available, so we’re not

having dinner with you guys. We’re not going back either, so be nice and listen to your grandpa.”

“What happened, Mommy? Why aren’t you guys coming home?” Zachary was astonished.

At the same time, Gavin also heard Zachary when he came over to call him.

Mommy’s not coming back?

“Why aren’t you coming home, Mommy?” Gavin asked as well.

“We have a social event to attend, so I doubt we can go back. You guys wash up and rest early. You’ll

definitely see me tomorrow morning.”

Arissa did not tell them Benjamin was hospitalized so they would not worry.

“Then don’t drink too much at night, Mommy. Stay safe!” Zachary urged.

“Don’t worry, Mommy. We’ll be going back after dinner,” Gavin said to Arissa.

Arissa smiled. “You guys can stay there overnight. There’s no need to hurry back since we’re not there.

Stay there and keep Grandpa company. Tomorrow’s the weekend anyway, so spend some more time

with him.”

Arissa figured it was a good idea since she was in the hospital and could not spend time with them.

So, instead of the children staying at home alone, it was better for them to spend time with Darius.

“Okay, Mommy!” Gavin nodded.

“Mommy, Grandpa’s actually eager to see you. It’s a shame that you can’t make it. He asked the chef

to make a lot of delicious food and even asked us what you like to eat!” Zachary told her.

Arissa smiled. “Maybe next time. I’ll pay him a visit when I’m free. So, tell Grandpa that we can’t join

him for dinner because of the social event.”

Arissa did not expect Darius to want to meet her that quickly, so she was a little unprepared.

On top of that, Benjamin was still in the hospital, so there was no way she could leave.

At the very least, Benjamin needs to be there when we go and see his father. Besides, Benjamin has

never even thought of bringing me to meet his parents, so it’d be inappropriate to meet his father out of

the blue.

“Okay! I’ll go tell Grandpa right now!”

Zachary handed the phone to Gavin and ran over to Darius.

“Grandpa, my mommy, and Benjamin went to attend a social event. They won’t be able to make it back

for dinner.”

“A social event?”

Darius was surprised to hear that. Doesn’t he hate attending social events? What happened? Don’t tell

me the children’s mother is afraid to see me…

Darius laughed. It looks like my eagerness has scared my future daughter-in-law.

“No worries, there’s always next time!”

Zachary smiled and said, “Yeah, Mommy said she’ll visit when she finds the time!”

“Great!” Darius responded with a hearty laugh and ruffled the little boy’s head.

Gavin saw that and happily told Arissa, “Mommy, Grandpa says you can come over next time for a

meal!”

“Sure!”

Arissa could actually hear Zachary since he was very loud.

“Sweetheart, Mommy still got work to do, so go finish your dinner!”

“Okay! Bye, Mommy!” Gavin replied.

“Bye, Sweetheart!”

Arissa gave her phone an audible kiss before finally ending the call.

Coincidentally, the bodyguards came back with food in their hands. “Ms. York, your food is here.”

“Okay. Thank you!” Arissa nodded with a smile. “You guys go eat as well.”

“We’re still on duty right now. We’ll eat when we change shifts, so I’ll leave you to it, Ms. York. If you

need anything, feel free to tell us. We’ll get it for you,” the bodyguard said before he went out.

“Okay!”

Arissa smiled. They have shifts?

After catching a whiff of the aroma from the food, her stomach started rumbling. So, Arissa quickly

headed over to the coffee table and munched down the food in front of her.

Drawbridge Dining’s food is the best!

After that, Arissa let out a sigh of ineffable satisfaction as her stomach was thoroughly conquered by

the delicious food.

At that moment, all those miserable memories of being ordered around got washed away as well.
