Chapter 704: They Do Not Hate Magic
It was clear on Clarisse’s face that she got quite annoyed with it a lot but had to calm herself since they were her adorable little children.
"I feel guilty for scolding them but my mood just goes askew at times. But even so, they keep coming to me asking for my attention. On some days, they get so clingy and want to be pampered a lot more than usual. I try to indulge them since it seems they could feel I would be focused on their sibling once I give birth... Even Raymond becomes so annoying sometimes..."
Clarisse shared a lot of her experiences, difficulties, and joys during her pregnancy. She had not gone out much and could not have tea parties either with other ladies due to the sensitivity of her current pregnancy. Thus, she had a lot of stories to tell now that she finally had another lady she could speak with a lot aside from her family.
Arabella simply listened so Clarisse could let out her pent-up frustrations. She understood the feeling since she also had some of the same frustrations when she was pregnant in her previous life. She had a lot she wanted to complain about back then too but she had no one to talk to and simply kept silent and did her best to bear with it all. She knew it would be different this time though.
After a while, maids and butlers arrived with fruits and goods from Ryvaleh for Arabella to try.
"These are best eaten before a meal while these are best after a meal... As for these, they are best eaten with a bit of salt..." Clarisse showed Arabella how the fruits were eaten and what best went with them.
Arabella enjoyed the fruits and thanked Clarisse for choosing the best quality goods for her from Ryvaleh.
They conversed a lot more about all sorts of things until the children finally returned to them when they got tired of playing around the estate.
The children were all sweaty from running around and their clothes got dirty here and there. It was easy to tell they played all sorts of games now that they finally had someone to play with.
Alice complained about her foot aching.
Meanwhile, Raymart pointed out that it was Alice who kept running around and had to be chased by them.
