“There’s no helping it. To the people here, Christmas and Christmas Eve are important events, so most of the staff have gone back except the doctors and nurses on duty,” Chester explained. “This hospital is slightly classier. The good thing is that there’s a kitchen attached to our ward, and we can hire people to cook.”
“It’s so troublesome.”
As a mother, Larissa could not stand seeing young people alone during festivals the most. Moreover, she heard Shaun talking about Chester’s heartless parents, so she could not stand it any longer and said, “Why don’t you spend these two days with us?”
Chester was stunned, but he quickly shook his head sheepishly. “There’s no need for that. We can just cook up something ourselves. Besides, the hospital won’t agree to us staying overnight outside.”
“You can come back after having dinner. Our place isn’t far from here anyway. Your friends are there too.”
After speaking, Larissa saw Chester keeping silent with his head lowered.
With that, she quickly hinted at Charity with her eyes.
Seeing that Charity did not say a word, Larissa pinched her waist angrily and glared at her as a warning.
Charity was speechless.
However, since she owed Larissa the most in the world, she could not reject her.
“My mom’s right. You should come back with us to the cabin to have a meal.” Charity raised her head and persuaded Chester. “Then, you can have Shaun drive you back here at night.”
“Forget it. I’ll just be here alone.” Chester glanced at his leg in disgust as he spoke, “I look too frightening. I don’t want to scare the kids.”
“You’re not frightening. I think it’s fine.” Charity was not used to Chester feeling inferior and spoke without hesitation.
“How is this fine?” Chester said bitterly, “There was a child who was scared to tears when he saw me a few days ago.”
