Chapter 541 He Cannot Show Too Much Attention
When the five children saw Tim nod, all of them hugged him and gave him a peck on his cheek.
“We knew you wouldn’t blame Mommy.”
Tim stood frozen after being showered by everyone’s warm attention.
“I’ll inform Mommy right away. She’ll definitely be delighted to hear it!”
Unable to contain her elation, Jesse slipped out at once.
When Zachary saw how stunned Tim was, he burst into laughter and teased, “Tim, don’t be shy. Mommy will be overjoyed to know that you don’t blame her.”
“Mmm-hmm,” Tim grunted softly.
“Tim, if you call her Mommy instead of Ms. York, she’ll be even happier!” Oliver gave him a mischievous look.
“I…” Tim was tongue-tied, as he hadn’t gotten used to it yet.
“Take your time. It’s fine to address her as Ms. York for the time being.”
Beaming, Zachary gestured for Oliver to stop harping on the topic.
“Tim, let’s go and see Mommy too!” Gavin pulled him along.
“Mmm-hmm!”
Just as he nodded, Tim’s tanned face began to blush.
At that moment, Jesse returned to the group. “Mommy isn’t around.”
Jasper asked, “Where did she go?”
“Grandma mentioned that she has gone to tailor some clothes.”
Jesse scratched her head.
“Tailor some clothes?” Oliver asked curiously.
Tim explained, “Perhaps, the clothes I’m wearing are too big for me.”
“In that case, let’s go and see Grandma.”
Gavin ushered all his younger siblings over to Mary’s ward.
With Tim’s clothes in hand, Arissa managed to find a tailor near the hospital to alter them into one size smaller.
Recalling that Tim’s shoes were also too big, she got the driver to send her to the closest mall after searching for one on the internet.
Once she arrived, she rushed to the children’s section to shop for clothes.
When Benjamin returned from the doctor’s office, he only saw the children in Mary’s ward. “Where’s Mommy?”
