Chapter 226: Family trip
Meanwhile, at the start of the summer break, Charles already planned what their family would do. Since his kids had studied and worked hard the whole school year, he wanted to reward them with something.
A vacation trip!
Driving his family to an exclusive resort, he grinned happily. He glanced at the rearview mirror, seeing his kids idle in the backseat. When he set his eyes ahead, Allison reached out and smiled at him.
"Kids, are you excited!? We’re almost there!" Charles announced, making his children snap their eyes at him without much reaction. "I can’t hear you!"
"Yes..." they answered in unison, still a little groggy from last night’s "party."
Last night, the Bennet Family had another sleepover and since Atlas and Hugo missed the last movie, they stayed up all night. Penny and Slater also couldn’t sleep, so they ended up watching movies until past midnight.
They would have more energy if Charles didn’t wake them up early in the morning and gave them time to process what was happening. But that wasn’t the case. Charles woke them up and told them to get into the car as if they were evacuating. It explained why they were still in their pajamas and bed hair.
Allison turned her head to the back of the van. "There are some extra pillows over there. You can sleep some more if you want."
"Mom, I’m hungry..." Slater mumbled. "Dad woke us up, and we still hadn’t eaten anything."
"Oh. The food is right there."
