Chapter 493 Are You Not Following Me

“It’s time you go back, Ms. York. I’ll wash Grandma’s clothes.”

Tim went to the bathroom door, wanting to take over the chore of washing Mary’s clothes.

“I’m not leaving. I’ll be staying to keep you both company tonight. Also, I’ll wash Mdm. Mary’s clothes. You go out and keep her company instead,” Arissa replied smilingly.

Tim bit his bottom lip, not quite sure what to say upon seeing that she was still washing the clothes.

Arissa turned her head slightly and looked at him. “What do you want to say to me?”

As his eyes met her earnest gaze, Tim shook his head.

“Sweetheart, hurry up and go to bed. Kids have to sleep early to grow tall and strong. I’ll also rest when I’m done with all this,” Arissa urged gently so that he didn’t have to waste his time here with her.

“Come here, Tim! I’ve got something to say to you!”

Hearing Mary’s holler from the bathroom, Arissa leaned out and interjected, “Why don’t you put that on the back burner first, Mdm. Mary? It’s late now.”

She was worried that it would affect Tim’s sleep, so she felt that it was better for them to talk another day.

Mary glanced at her. On second thought, she also felt that it would be better to talk sometime later.

At that precise moment, Benjamin came in with the children.

“It’s late, so go back and rest. Mary needs to rest, too!” he said to Arissa.

With her eyes pinned on him, Arissa stated, “I’m staying here tonight.”
