The More the Merrier novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44 Leaving This House After Eating

With a crisp crack, the lock instantly dropped.

At that, Jasper was utterly stunned, hiding under the blanket.

He could not help but wonder what made that sound.

The next second, he heard the door opening, followed by footsteps approaching.

Jasper twitched his lips. Did Benjamin break the door?

Looking at Jasper, who was under the blanket, Benjamin went to sit beside his bed.

As he pulled the blanket away, he saw Jasper freezing upon seeing him. Benjamin almost lost himself seeing his cute expression.

Jasper became aware of Benjamin’s gaze and quickly pulled up the blanket.

He turned over and scoffed aloud.

Seeing that, Benjamin raised his eyebrows and gently patted the blanket.

“You don’t feel like eating ice cream anymore?” asked Benjamin.

Upon listening to that, Jasper did not utter a single word.

As Benjamin looked at Jasper, he felt bad out of a sudden.

“Do you miss your mommy?” he asked gently.

Still, Jasper stayed silent.

“All right, I will bring her here right now.”

“No! I don’t want to see her!” Jasper covered himself with the blanket and shouted at Benjamin as soon as he heard the latter mentioning Danna.

“Why?” asked Benjamin confusedly.

He was puzzled as Gavin had never thrown a tantrum like this, even when he disliked Danna previously.

Is it really like what Edwin said? Was this kid triggered?

Jasper rolled his eyes at Benjamin, who clearly did not get his clue. He then wrapped himself with the blanket again out of annoyance.

“Are you trying to get her here to punish me?”

What a vicious woman! She has already punished Gavin many times before this.

“Don’t worry. She won’t dare to do that now. I’m here to protect you,” Benjamin said grimly. “Come out of the blanket! I will never ask her to come if you don’t want to see her. If you ever want to see her, you can always ask Edwin to phone her anytime!”

Hearing that, Jasper let out a light snort. Clearly, he was satisfied with such an ending.

However, he was still hiding under the blanket.

“Don’t eat too much junk food!” urged Benjamin while setting the ice cream down.
