The More the Merrier novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Does Mommy Like Daddy

Edwin stood at the side and glanced at Gavin. Then, he turned to look at Arissa, who was ever so loving to Gavin. She patiently showered Gavin with her endearing motherly love.

This made Edwin baffled. Arissa is so loving to Gavin, even though she’s not his real mom. In contrast, Danna is so cruel to Gavin. She is incomparable to Arissa.

Meanwhile, Arissa looked at Gavin attentively as she tried to get him to eat more. For her, it was absolute bliss as she fussed over her little boy. However, as she was going to feed him, Benjamin halted her.

He threw a glance at her and muttered in his deep voice, “Let Gavin eat on his own.”

With that, Arissa looked at Benjamin and relented.

Gavin, too, peered at Benjamin and ate on his own obediently.

After a while, he took some food and offered it to Arissa. “Mommy, this is yummy. Have some more of this!”

Immensely moved by his gesture, Arissa stroked Gavin’s head affectionately. “Thank you, Sweetheart!”

Benjamin’s eyes glistened brightly as he caught sight of Arissa’s blissful smile.

Even Edwin had the corners of his mouth upturned in a faint smile as he basked in the affectionate atmosphere. Finally, he felt the warmth of a loving family as it had been some time since he last saw a smile on Gavin’s face.

“Ms. York, do you like the dishes today?” asked Edwin with a polite smile.

“Yes, these dishes are delicious. Edwin, I can’t match up with your culinary skills,” praised Arissa wholeheartedly.

At that moment, Benjamin interrupted the happy mood with his abrupt view. “There’s no need to flatter Edwin. Actually, I prefer your dishes instead.”

In the blink of an eye, he rendered Edwin and Arissa speechless.

After Gavin peeked at Benjamin, he smiled and remarked, “Mommy’s dishes are delicious too!”

With a bright smile, Arissa looked lovingly into Gavin’s dazzling eyes. Then, she stroked his head gently and gushed, “Thank you, Sweetheart. Let’s finish our meal first.”

After Gavin beamed a smile, they continued with their meal.

As Benjamin watched the happy exchange between Arissa and Gavin, he couldn’t help but feel displeased. His brows furrowed at the contrast between how Arissa treated Gavin compared to him.

This was more pronounced as Arissa called Gavin by his nickname. The more Benjamin thought about it, the more it annoyed him.

On the other hand, Edwin sneaked a peek at Benjamin and sniggered away. It seems Mr. Graham has the hots for Ms. York. He’s finally showing more emotion than his usual self.

Under Benjamin’s watchful eyes, Arissa finally finished her meal with Gavin.
