Chapter 809: Chapter 809



The door to the room opened at that moment, and Jayden returned with the two children. Amanda was holding a balloon butterfly, and when she approached, the butterfly was also swaying in her hands as if flapping its wings.

She asked as soon as she walked in, “Where’s Jos?” He wanted to give the balloon to his brother.

Andrew folded his arms and figured Joshua was a boy and wouldn’t like that sort of thing at all.

Jessica came out of the room and said, “Jos is sleeping. Don’t disturb him.”

Amanda pouted and turned to Matthew, calling intimately, “Daddy.”

Matthew pulled her onto his lap, tucked her hair, which was a little messy, behind her ear, and asked quietly, “What did you do today?”

Then Amanda told him about the places she had visited.

Jayden waved to Boyce and went inside. He was old and a little tired after spending all day with the kids.

Andrew sat next to him, watching Amanda sit in Matthew’s arms.

Boyce patted Andrew, “You seem to me to be getting quieter and quieter.”

Andrew said coolly, “Should I be like my sister and let my father hold me? I’ve grown up – aren’t you ashamed?” Boyce laughed.

Amanda then looked at him wide-eyed and said, “You’re just jealous of Daddy hugging me, aren’t you?”

“Hey! Childish!” she slid off the couch and walked into the house after saying that.

Boyce smiled at Matthew, “Andrew is looking more and more like you.”

“I look like Dad too.” Amanda wrapped her arms around Matthew’s neck and asked, “Dad, do I look like you?” Matthew pinched her cheeks and said yes.

Both Amanda and Andrew looked like him and, now that they had grown up, they looked 90% like him.

However, the younger one looked a little more like Dolores.

“I’ll go see Jos.” Amanda got out of Matthew’s arms.

“Be gentle and don’t wake him up.” Matthew said.

“Okay.” After saying that, she took the butterfly balloon and went into the house.

After an hour, it was time for dinner.

Jasmine was helping Coral serve the food. Dolores was also helping in the kitchen. Now that Joshua was asleep and Jessica was here, Dolores washed her hands and walked out of the kitchen to Jayden’s room. She was about to knock on the door and found that the door was open. There was a large gap and she could vaguely see Jayden standing on the balcony coughing.

The balcony window was closed, as if he was afraid people might hear him.

Dolores knocked on the door, and Jayden found her opening the balcony door and approaching.

“Dad, are you sick?” asked Dolores with concern when she saw that he didn’t look well.

Jayden froze for a moment and waved his hand, “It’s nothing. I just have a cold.”

Dolores nodded, “There’s medicine at home. I’ll bring it to you later.”

“I already bought it.” Jayden said.

Dolores was still uneasy, “Do you want to go to the hospital to get it checked out.”

He was getting older, and she had noticed recently that Jayden was no longer carrying Joshua, something he used to love to do.

“It’s just a cold. Don’t worry.”

Dolores pursed her lips and said, “Then go out to dinner.” Jayden nodded.

In the dining room, dinner was already served. Jayden washed his hands and went to sit in the main seat.

Along with Jasmine and Boyce, there was a table full of people.

Today’s dinner was very sumptuous. Seafood was quite plentiful this time of year, and there was plenty of it.

Dolores peeled shrimp for the two children. Andrew said, “Mom, you eat first. I’ll peel them.

Amanda said, “I want to peel them too.”

So Dolores put the peeled shrimp in her hand on Matthew’s plate, and the two children peeled them themselves.

Amanda peeled one and ate it first. She thought it tasted good and kept peeling it. Then she got up from her chair and ran to give it to Jayden.

Jayden smiled kindly, “I didn’t want Amy for no reason.”

Amanda laughed and said, “Grandma, don’t be jealous. I’ll peel it off for you right now.”

Jessica also laughed, “I was going to say you forgot about me. My granddaughter is obedient and has not forgotten me.”

Andrew put the peeled shrimp on Dolores’ plate and the second one on Jessica’s without saying a word.

Dolores reached out to touch her son’s head, returning the shrimp to his bowl, “You are growing and need to eat more.”

“Andrew will grow more.” Said Jasmine, “I see a lot of kids his age aren’t as tall as he is.”

Dolores also thought her son did grow quite a bit like Matthew.

She glanced at Boyce and then at Jasmine. Although they were both sitting quietly side by side, they also looked uncomfortable.

Dolores knew a lot about Boyce’s nature, so she intentionally asked Jasmine, “Jasmine, is there any way you can tell?

Jasmine, “Jasmine, are there a lot of boys at your college?”. Boyce unconsciously turned to Jasmine.

Jasmine nodded, “Quite a lot.”

“Are there any cute ones?” asked Dolores again.

This time Matthew glanced at Dolores.

It’s not enough for him to have me as a husband, and he even asked Jasmine if there were any handsome boys at the college. What do you want.

“Are there any handsome, well-qualified boys chasing after you?” Dolores winked at Jasmine.

At first, Jasmine didn’t understand what Dolores meant, but now she understood and said, “Yes.”

After saying that, she also reached out to touch the necklace around her neck and said, “This was given to me by a very beautiful and well-endowed person.”

He even deliberately showed it to Boyce while saying, “Boyce, do you think it fits me?”.

Boyce was speechless.
