The More the Merrier novel Chapter 489

Chapter 489 He Still Loves The Presents

Arissa fondled his head, folded the clothes, and put them aside.

“We bought you shoes too! Sit down and let me put on the shoes for you!”

She took out the shoes and left them on the side.

Tim removed his slippers and curled his toes.

Arissa knew that her son was embarrassed, so she pulled him down to the seat and put on the shoes for him.

Tim pulled back his legs and put them on by himself.

Arissa looked at him and just let him be.

“Do they fit you?”

“Yes!” responded Tim.

She pressed her fingers on the front of the shoes and realized they were a little too big.

Arissa looked at Tim and noticed that he was blushing.

“They are too big.”

Rubbing his head, Arissa said softly, “Don’t worry. I’ll get you another pair.”

Tim mumbled, “It’s fine. I can wear these too.”

“No. Shoes have to fit well in order to be comfortable.”

Arissa brushed his hair. Seeing that he did not remove the shoes, she was delighted.

It appeared that Tim did like his presents after all.

“Remove the new shoes first. We’ll go get you a pair that fits well. As for this pair of shoes, you can wear them once your feet have grown bigger!”

Tim looked at the smile on her face and pondered.

Is she genuinely nice to me, or is she doing this out of guilt?

The thought of Arissa doing all those to make it up to him turned Tim aloof once again.

“Ms. York, please don’t waste your money. I don’t like the shoes!”

Hearing the cold voice of the boy, Arissa felt her heart ache. He was resisting her attempt to get closer to him.

“All right then. Sweetheart, what kind of shoes do you like? Tell me, and I’ll buy them for you.”

Tim turned away.

Arissa felt so helpless, and when she saw the boy’s frail body, tears started to well up again.

Her heart hurt so much.

“Issa, don’t worry. If Tim prefers the new shoes, just let him wear them!”

When Mary saw that she was upset, she tried to console her.
