"Co on over here, let 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 mont.
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 Jas, who was standing by, and quietly asked, "Didn’t Jack and Chad go back to the Ross family?"
After all, Adam Ross had ssaged 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 et 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 ti to personally take Jack and Chad back to the Ross family." Charlotte nodded and spoke out.
anwhile, Jonathan, who had been washing fruits in the kitchen, heard the children’s voices and imdiately ca out. Although his hands were still wet, it did not affect the smile on his face at all.
"My little darlings, long ti 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 imdiately saw through Hank’s little sche and flicked his forehead.
"Is that really you missing ?"
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, Jas 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. Co on, let your Uncle Jas take you to eat so fruits."
"Yay!"
Hank clapped his hands, directly and firmly turning traitor following Jas’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 ga 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 sothing with Jas.
The room, deserted for a long ti, 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 docunts you needed via email to your mailbox. Please have a look when you have ti. Could I postpone this afternoon’s designers’ eting to tomorrow?"
Hearing Coco’s inquiries, Charlotte suddenly rembered that she still had lots of things undone.
She tapped her temple and then imdiately got up and responded, "No need to postpone, I will go to the office shortly."
