The More the Merrier novel Chapter 380

Chapter 380 Keep It Low

“Could it be that Daddy is bullying Mommy?” Jesse furrowed her brows and made her guess.

Hearing that, the kids exchanged glances with one another.

“I don’t think so!” Gavin answered softly.

He wasn’t defending Benjamin per se, but he definitely knew Benjamin better. “If Mommy was being bullied, they wouldn’t be talking to each other nicely in the study room just now.”

Zachary and the rest agreed. “Then it has to be something else!”

Zachary knitted his brows because he was sure Arissa was hiding something from them.

Right then, Jasper thought of something they could do. “Should we go to the back and eavesdrop?”

Oliver’s eyes lit up and reminded Zachary, “Since Mommy and Daddy didn’t want us to hear, we’ll surely get punished if we get caught!”

“We just have to be careful. If you’re scared, I’ll go on my own!” Jasper glanced at them before getting up and running down the stairs.

Right then, Zachary and Gavin shared a look.

“I’m going as well!”

Zachary went along because not only was he worried about Arissa, but he really wanted to know what they were talking about in the study room.

Gavin ran after them as well.

“Wait for me! I’m going too!” Oliver followed suit.

“Wait for me!” Jesse exclaimed. Before Jesse could even get up, the boys were already far ahead.

Oliver turned around toward Jesse and instructed, “You don’t have to go. Stay here and keep an eye on the situation for us.”

“Oh, okay!” Jesse nodded and urged, “Please don’t get caught!”

The four boys ran toward the balcony behind the study and leaned in.

Since the curtains weren’t drawn, they could clearly see the people inside the room.
