Chapter 647 An Important Elderly
Edwin nodded. “Yes, they are. For the time being, Tim will stay with the rest of the boys. As for Mdm. Mary, I have arranged for her room to be on the ground floor for her convenience.”
It would be inconvenient for Mary to stay upstairs because of her legs.
Although there was an elevator in the house, only Benjamin was allowed to use it.
That was why Edwin did not dare to arrange for Mary to stay in a room upstairs.
“Have the guest room upstairs renovated to Grandaunt’s requirements. Once it’s ready, move her upstairs!” instructed Benjamin.
Edwin was startled to hear that. “Yes!”
Edwin found it strange. “Mr. Graham, this Grandaunt…”
In order to gain Benjamin’s respect, she must be somebody important.
“She is Tim’s benefactor. She has raised him and now, she is also Arissa and my grandaunt,” explained Benjamin.
“I got it now!”
Edwin glanced at Arissa with a smile before getting to his work.
Arissa blushed. Is Edwin mistaken about something when he looked at me strangely just now?
When she recalled the way Benjamin had addressed Mary, her face felt hot.
“Actually, you don’t have to address her as Grandaunt!”
Benjamin shot her a look and asked, “If I don’t call her that, then what should I call her?”
Arissa did not know how to reply.
“If I don’t address her affectionately, she won’t be able to stay here at ease.”
Benjamin snorted with displeasure. What is this woman trying to do?
Hearing that he was upset, Arissa looked at his tense face and whispered, “Thank you.”
Benjamin frowned and stared at her. “Why are you thanking me?”
Arissa met his angry eyes and dared not say anything more.
She smiled sheepishly. “Nothing. I just feel like thanking you. That’s all. Mr. Graham, don’t think too much. Grandaunt is also your benefactor. It’s only right that you are good to her. I totally agree with what you do!”
Benjamin snorted lightly and said, “What a sweet talker!”
Arissa pouted her lips. What does he mean by that? I’m just worried that he might get angry.
The two of them went to Mary’s room and saw Edwin showing her around.
“Grandaunt, the room upstairs has yet to be renovated because we have come back in a rush. Once the restroom has been customized to suit your needs, you will be able to move upstairs,” explained Arissa gently as she held onto Mary’s hands.
Mary had never seen such a luxurious house before. Looking at the decor of her room, she was a little uneasy and did not know how to react.
“I’m fine with this room. There’s no need to move. It’s easier for me to move around if I’m on the ground floor.”
Arissa told her, “It’s equally convenient upstairs. We have an elevator at home! You can move to the new room once the renovation is completed. For the time being, just stay in this room first.”
Benjamin’s eyes flickered with joy when he heard Arissa use the word “home.”
Mary was moved beyond words. “Thank you. Sorry to cause all of you so much trouble!”
“Why are you being so polite with me again?”
Arissa pouted and pretended to be angry with Mary.
Benjamin also chimed in and put Mary at ease. “Grandaunt, just stay here and don’t worry about anything. Tomorrow, you will have to stay in the hospital. Once you are discharged, the room upstairs should be ready.”
The six children ran over.
Gavin said, “Great-grandaunt, just stay here and don’t worry about anything!”
Zachary added, “Yes, we are staying here too!”
“Great-grandaunt, just treat this place as your own home!” said Oliver.
Jasper said, “Great-grandaunt, just stay here comfortably. If you need anything, just let my mommy know!”
Last but not least, Jesse said, “Great-grandaunt, this place is very huge. Even I haven’t been to every part of it. We will go together next time!”
“Sure, sure!”
Mary nodded with tears in her eyes.
These children are so kind.
Even after letting me stay in such a grand house, they are still concerned that I won’t feel at ease living here.
Mary was overwhelmed with emotions. She had never seen a house that luxurious before, let alone stay in one.
