After hearing Charlotte’s words, Hank Thompson, who just took a big gulp of juice, suddenly beca theatrical.
His eyes turned red in an instant and he spoke in a pitiful tone, "Mommy, don’t you trust us? Don’t you trust your babies?"
Charlotte’s lips twitched at the sight of his performance.
"Do you think I’m a little kid you can fool? Tell the truth!"
Charlotte remained serious, scanning over the children in front of her.
Chad and Jack didn’t dare to et her gaze from the very beginning.
These two children weren’t as cool-headed as Cyrus, nor as mischievous and lively as Hank and Grace.
They were more of the honest type.
They broke character easily.
"Mommy, we really did co here on our own. You do know about big brother’s hacking skills, right? And the internet is so developed now, big brother is so smart, clever like a monkey, he bought us airplane tickets, and then we ca here."
Hank, not wanting Charlotte to continue with her suspicions, was putting a lot of effort into explaining.
"Yes, yes, Mommy, we all ca here with big brother, and you haven’t contacted us for so long, we missed you so much, so we thought of coming over."
As soon as Hank finished speaking, just like passing the baton, Grace chid in too.
The siblings were conversing back and forth, just like a comic dialogue.
This excuse seed decent, but it didn’t work with Charlotte.
"You can trick others with those words, but I am your mother! You didn’t even tell when you decided to co here on your own, what would you do if sothing happened?"
Charlotte widened her eyes, looking back and forth at her children.
She looked serious and sowhat reproachful.
Despite her appearance, the children were obedient and knew in their hearts that she wasn’t really angry.
"Mommy, we know we were wrong. We won’t dare to do it again. We definitely won’t make you angry. We promise to be obedient. If you tell us to go east, we definitely won’t head west."
Hank quickly pouted, pulling Charlotte’s hand obediently with a serious face making countless promises and apologies.
His cuteness resembled that of a little kitten very much.
"Alright, don’t act spoiled here. You guys don’t let feel at ease."
As soon as Charlotte finished speaking, she saw the waiter bringing the dishes.
Soon, the table was filled with various dishes, an array of delicacies that whet one’s appetite.
The children had eaten before they ca out, but it had been so long that they were hungry again.
They were all swallowing hard, and Charlotte saw it.
"Okay, let’s eat first."
Charlotte didn’t say anything more; she just let them eat first.
With Charlotte’s permission, the children naturally picked up their utensils, and started stuffing food into their mouths.
Seeing them wolfing down the food, she couldn’t help but sigh.
Did these children really co on their own? They’re this hungry?
"After eating, you all go back to the hotel and stay there."
Cyrus looked up when he heard Charlotte’s words, looked at the vegetable salad in front of Charlotte, and frowned slightly.
"Mommy, aren’t you eating?" Cyrus asked out loud.
"I don’t have much appetite. You guys eat slowly, don’t rush." Charlotte said, noticing the sauce at the corner of Grace’s mouth, she picked up a napkin to wipe it off.
Then she furrowed her brows: "Didn’t I tell you to eat properly before I ca to Druarus? Aren’t you all ignoring ?"
The children kept their heads down and continued eating, without any response.
