Hannibal was debating what would ultimately be best. He did need time alone with Margaery, and the children would distract her from getting the horror of what happened outnif her system. However, they were soothing to her and she was still very sensitive from the whole ordeal.
He frowned for a moment. "Today is a bit early. There is not enough milk for young Loerys set aside. It is true that we have begun to limit how much she feeds from Margaery, but she still requires some of her milk. Tomorrow would be better."
He then recalled something Willas had told him. "Perhaps a different alternative is possible. I recall hearing of a luxurious little castle tucked away behind all of the expansive gardens at Highgarden. What if we all went there today? The children can sleep in Highgarden while Margaery and I stay in the small castle. We will be close enough to make certain they are more than safe, but leave them in your care while we spend some time away. What do you think of that my dear?" He asked.
He had not said it aloud, but all of this was for Margaery's sake. Something he was not certain she had pieced together yet.
