Chapter 1188: Chapter 1188: A House Full of Descendants
"Come on over here, let me have a good look at you all."
Mr. Thompson quickly waved the children over.
Since the children and Charlotte returned to Druarus, Mr. Thompson had been missing them almost every moment.
The children also walked enthusiastically to Mr. Thompson’s side.
And Charlotte, seeing that both Jack and Chad were also there, paused slightly.
Then she turned to James, who was standing by, and quietly asked, "Didn’t Jack and Chad go back to the Ross family?"
After all, Adam Ross had messaged her saying that he would pick up Jack and Chad this morning.
"When I went to pick up the children at Miss Clarkson’s, I happened to meet Adam Ross. However, I thought since Grandpa surely misses all these kids very much, I did not let him take Jack and Chad away."
"If that’s the case, then I will find a time to personally take Jack and Chad back to the Ross family." Charlotte nodded and spoke out.
Meanwhile, Jonathan, who had been washing fruits in the kitchen, heard the children’s voices and immediately came out. Although his hands were still wet, it did not affect the smile on his face at all.
"My little darlings, long time no see. Have you missed your Uncle Jonathan?"
"Miss, miss, miss! Of course, we’ve missed you," Hank was the first to raise his hand, eagerly answering.
However, Jonathan immediately saw through Hank’s little scheme and flicked his forehead.
"Is that really you missing me?"
Hank, rubbing his painful forehead, had a slightly guilty and vacillating gaze, but soon after, he put on a very aggrieved expression.
But before Hank could continue speaking, James on the other side already pressed down on Hank’s head.
"If that’s the case, Hank, you no longer need to miss your Uncle Jonathan. It’s less of a worry for one than for many. Come on, let your Uncle James take you to eat some fruits."
"Yay!"
Hank clapped his hands, directly and firmly turning traitor following James’s words.
"You little rascal."
Jonathan pretended to roll up his sleeves and reached out to grab Hank, who naturally dodged swiftly, inadvertently dragging the innocent Jack and Chad into it.
What was originally a chase between Jonathan and Hank, has now turned into a game of tag with three kids for Jonathan.
Grace and Olivia, the two little girls, sat one on each side of Mr. Thompson, talking to him about amusing things.
And Cyrus sat calmly at another end, seemingly discussing something with James.
The room, deserted for a long time, finally filled up with fresh life and the children’s laughter and chatter.
Watching the children’s smiling faces, Charlotte’s smile was constantly upturned, never coming down.
But just then, the phone in her pocket rang; it was Coco calling.
"Coco, what happened?"
"Ah... Sister Charlotte, I saw you weren’t at the office today, so I sent those documents you needed via email to your mailbox. Please have a look when you have time. Could I postpone this afternoon’s designers’ meeting to tomorrow?"
Hearing Coco’s inquiries, Charlotte suddenly remembered that she still had lots of things undone.
She tapped her temple and then immediately got up and responded, "No need to postpone, I will go to the office shortly."
