After hearing Henry Thompson’s words, Charlotte Thompson took a few seconds to think and eventually agreed.
After all, Ashton was too far from Druarus, and their children were still young, requiring her to stay with them.
In response, Henry seemed to have found a slightly quiet environment to sit down. After some thought, he continued: "I will send you the address of the house later. If you are free, drop by to check it out... By the way, you can invite Jack Bryant and Liam Bryant along, they should be quite familiar too."
The Bryant Family were trusted assistants of the Thompson Family. Their father had also helped with many of the Thompson Family’s affairs over the years. Hence, the Bryant brothers had essentially grown up with Henry in the Thompson family and were quite knowledgeable about the Thompson Family’s properties, arguably even more so than Charlotte.
After all, Charlotte had only rejoined the Thompson family a few years ago, and due to her busy schedule, she had never managed Thompson Family’s real estate holdings. Hence, she was mostly in the dark about such matters.
Nodding in agreement, Charlotte asked, "Are you still in Druarus?"
Henry simply nodded on the other end of the line, responding, "There are still some matters to be attended to."
After exchanging pleasantries, Charlotte hung up the phone. A waiter knocked on the door to deliver breakfast at that moment, so she put on her slippers and woke the children.
With sleepy eyes, Grace Thompson washed her face. By the time she arrived, her brothers had already started eating. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI(F)ire.net
Charlotte handed her a glass of milk and whispered, "After breakfast, I’ll take you to look at the house. We can’t continue living so freely. Comfort can breed stagnancy."
Upon hearing this, Hank Thompson, who was quietly chewing on a piece of bread, looked up, his eyes bright with interest.
"Does that mean we’ll have neighbors? I heard people who live in houses have neighbors."
Upon hearing this, Charlotte was taken aback.
She hadn’t given much thought to whether they would have any neighbors.
On the other hand, Cyrus Thompson casually took a sip of his milk, turned to Hank, and replied with some disdain, "Pray for the kids next door, they’ll have to deal with you."
As the brothers started their banter, Charlotte couldn’t help but smile.
Given Hank’s whimsical and mischievous ideas, god knows what pranks he might play if there were indeed kids next door.
In the end, Hank, unable to challenge his elder brother, puckered his lips and continued with his breakfast. Seeing them quiet down, Charlotte cleared her throat to announce another matter.
"Once we move into the new place, you’ll have to return to kindergarten."
This remark kicked up a fuss among the children. They all began to look at her, their eyes filled with evident resistance.
Even Grace’s tiny face fell. She pouted and whined in her baby voice, "Mommy, do we really have to go back to kindergarten? It’s so boring."
Plus, she wouldn’t be able to nap whenever she wanted!
For the sleepy little Grace, this was scarier than a horror movie.
Knowing full well what Grace was thinking, Charlotte’s lips slightly curled into a gentle smile, sounding incredibly soft.
Grace Thompson: "..."
Grace feels wronged, Grace feels sad, Grace doesn’t want to go to kindergarten!
After they had slowly finished their breakfast, Charlotte Thompson applied a light layer of makeup and changed into dark jeans and a ruffled collar shirt. She then took the children out of the hotel.
Outside the hotel, Jack Bryant and Liam Bryant had already received Henry Thompson’s message and were waiting with their car.
