Chapter 1482

The next day, as expected, Maggie used the three little ones as an excuse, feigning reluctance to leave with insincere sentimentality.

“After all, we are the grandparents of these three children. We’ve finally managed to meet them, and we can’t bear to part with them just like that…”

Wrenn’s eyes twitched. “So, what are you implying?”

With a pleasing smile, Maggie proposed, “How about this? Why don’t we stay a few more days to spend time with the children? Mrs. Beauvort, you wouldn’t refuse such a small request, would you?”

Nigel chimed in with a forced smile, “Indeed, Mrs. Beauvort, while the Beauvort family enjoys familial bliss, we too, along with these children, are a family.”

Wrenn looked upset. She locked eyes with Frederic, and in the end, she gritted her teeth and agreed, “All right, then. You can stay here for a couple more days. If there’s anything you need during this time, don’t hesitate to ask.”

Maggie and Nigel naturally wouldn’t stand on ceremony with her.

“All right, then. Thank you for your generous hospitality, Mrs. Beauvort.”

At the dining table, the three little ones were utterly confused.

Yesterday, they had been picked up by Edward and taken out for a day of fun. They had only returned today.

They had been completely unaware of Maggie and Nigel’s visit to Beauvort Manor, let alone what had happened yesterday.

However, looking at these two now, they couldn’t shake off the feeling that something was amiss. They were on full alert, their hearts filled with caution.

After breakfast, Harvey tugged at Wrenn’s sleeve, pulling her aside, his little face serious and solemn.

“Grandma, Sammy, Penny, and I have never met them. Are they really Mommy’s adoptive parents?”

Wrenn gently patted his little head and kindly said, “Indeed, they are.”

Harvey’s expression remained grim, a hint of disgust lurking in his eyes.

“Mommy has never mentioned them. Although she never complained, I’m sure she had a hard time living with them. I don’t like them, nor do I want to be around them. I believe Sammy and Penny feel the same way.” Then, he asked again, “When they came looking for you, did they ask you and Grandpa for a favor? Did they… ask for money?”
