Chapter 982: Chapter 982: You’re Even Jealous of the Children
However, before Charlotte could say anything, Justin Battleson immediately spoke up in refusal, "No."
If these children slept with Charlotte tonight, what would he do when they found some excuse to cling to her every other day?
Besides, he and Charlotte didn’t have just one child, these six little ones huddled together were indeed a headache.
"Why not?" Hank Thompson asked, not understanding.
"You guys aren’t young anymore, why do you still need Mommy to sleep with you?" Justin spoke solemnly.
Grace Thompson and Olivia Thompson were little girls, and if Charlotte was with them, Justin had no objections, but as for these boys, Justin wouldn’t agree.
The Battleson Family’s upbringing required cultivating independence and strength from a young age.
But these reasons were secondary, the most important thing was, where was there such a big bed that could fit so many people?
Hank’s face showed a momentary flash of disappointment.
After all, these children had all been brought up by the Thompson Family independently from a young age. Although they were still somewhat dependent on Charlotte, it wasn’t as severe as that of ordinary children.
Moreover, these children had grown up together, each other’s company was also comforting.
"Alright, children, let’s go home. Your great-grandmother has been worried about you," Justin said.
"Let’s go, we’ll take Grace home."
Cyrus Thompson grabbed Grace’s hand, and the little ones followed behind them, gradually leaving the hospital room.
"Come to think of it, I don’t seem to have ever slept with the children," Charlotte blinked and said aloud.
"Other people’s children grow up coddled in their parents’ arms."
"Our children don’t need that," Justin said.
Charlotte glanced at Justin.
Seeing this, Justin leaned down close to her ear and said softly, "Plus, I need someone to accompany me too."
The warm breath tickled Charlotte’s ear, causing her to shrug her shoulders.
"Are you being childish? How can you be jealous of the children?" Charlotte pushed Justin’s chest playfully and gave him a coquettish look.
Justin then clasped Charlotte’s hand and boldly kissed the corner of her lips.
"You!" Charlotte was startled by Justin’s action.
"Let’s go, the kids must be waiting anxiously," Justin said, in a great mood, and took Charlotte’s hand to leave the hospital room.
However, unexpectedly, as soon as Justin and Charlotte stepped out of the room, they saw Uncle Vincent standing in the hallway talking to the children.
"Are you getting discharged?" Vincent looked up towards Charlotte.
Charlotte smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your help before."
"I’ve told you, we’ve known each other for so long, no need to be so formal," Vincent said tenderly.
Feeling her hand being squeezed a little tighter, Charlotte curved her lips and lightly curled her fingertips around Justin’s palm.
"Okay, children, say goodbye to Uncle Vincent."
"Goodbye, Uncle Vincent," the children obediently waved to Vincent.
Vincent also nodded with a smile, then watched as Justin and Charlotte took the children away.
But just at that moment, a huge noise suddenly erupted in the hospital.
Everyone was startled, but Charlotte’s face turned pale instantly, and she turned her head to see Grace nearby.
"Grace!"
