Chapter 1329 Why Is Daddy Not Coming To Pick Us Up
Shaun left half an hour early to pick the kids up from school. When they came out and saw him, they
were quite happy.
“Mr. Bailey, why are you here?”
The six little ones, with their backpacks bouncing on their backs, ran over to him.
“That''s cause I miss you all. Don''t you like it when Ie to pick you up?” Shaun asked.
“How could we not like it?” Jasper grinned. “We thought you would still be at the hospital!”
“In the future, I''ll be staying at your house every day. Will you wee me?” Shaun asked as he led
the siblings to the car after greeting their teacher.
“Why would you stay at our house?” Jesse was puzzled, her eyes gleaming as she looked at him.
Shaun affectionately touched her nose. “Because it''s convenient, and I want to be with all of you!”
The kids didn''t know that Arissa had been discharged, so they decided to keep it a surprise, following
Benjamin''s instructions.
“You definitely have something going on!” Zachary cooly concluded with certainty.
Shaun chuckled helplessly. Did this kid have to be so sharp? He could even tell that something was up.
Gavin also didn''t believe that Shaun was just here to be with them. It had been so long since theyst
saw him. Something was evidently amiss.
Tim and Oliver kept their eyes on Shaun but didn''t say much. However, Tim''s gaze at Shaun was
particrly bright.
Shaunughed and pinched Tim''s cheek. This kid used to be so dark, and now, even though he wasn''t
as fair as the other five, he still looked incredibly adorable.
“Tim, are you staring at me because you don''t recognize me anymore?”
Tim smiled shyly and asked in a soft voice, “Mr. Bailey, why weren''t you at the hospital taking care of
my mommy?”
“Your mommy has already recovered, so there''s no need for me to be there.”
Shaun chuckled and securely fastened the kids'' seatbelts, driving them back to Yaleview.
“Mr. Bailey, can we go straight to the hospital instead?” Gavin queried as he looked at the driving
Shaun.
They wanted to spend more time with Mommy.
“I came from home to pick you up. When I left, Edwin had bought a lot of groceries and hadn''t cooked
dinner yet. So, let''s head home first, and we can take dinner to your mommy at the hospital.”
Shaun said this with a convincing tone, making sure the kids didn''t suspect anything.
The six kids sat in the back seat, ncing at Shaun, then at each other, their eyes filled with curiosity.
“Mr. Bailey, why didn''t Daddye to pick us up?” Gavin found this quite strange. Daddy had promised
to pick them up after school in the morning.
Frankly, deep down, they still felt a bit disappointed when they saw that Shaun was the one to pick
them up instead.
Daddy didn''t keep his word.
“Your daddy had some urgent business at hispany that he had to attend to. He couldn''t make it in
time, so he asked me toe and pick you up!”
“What happened?” Gavin asked anxiously, his brows furrowing.
Shaun nced at the rearview mirror, seeing the kids'' concern. He smiled reassuringly.
“It''s not a very big problem, I don''t think. Your daddy didn''t say much, and he lookedposed when I
left. I believe he can handle it.”
Gavin nodded, feeling reassured.
Zachary asked, “When will he be done then?”
“I''m not sure about that. How about you guys give him a call and ask?” Shaun also wanted to know if
Benjamin could make it for dinner.
“I''m not calling him,” Zachary replied in a cool manner.
Shaun chuckled. “You should call him and ask him toe home for dinner. He''ll be happy to hear
from you!”
The brothers looked at each other, considering Shaun''s suggestion, but none of them wanted to make
the call.
Finally, they all turned to Tim, and Tim looked at them and asked quietly, “Should I make the call?”
Gavin and the others chuckled and nodded, saying, “Tim, you make the call!”
Tim hesitated for a moment, feeling a bit embarrassed, before finally dialing Benjamin''s number.

The phone rang for quite some time, but there was no answer on the other end.
“Mr. Bailey, he isn''t picking up the call.”
