The More the Merrier novel Chapter 539

Chapter 539 Benjamin Comforts Her

Zachary pulled out his phone and showed it to Tim. “This is what surfing the internet means—using the phone or a computer to do such things.”

“Oh!” Tim nodded, finally understanding the meaning.

Though their voices were soft, Arissa heard everything, and it left an ache in her heart.

They lived in the same world, yet Tim looked as though he had been living in another.

It was as if he was living in a world that existed a couple of decades back. He had never seen anything and had been living a poor life.

She lowered her head, shoving food into her mouth robotically as her heart ached terribly.

Even her vision started to blur.

When the children found out Tim had not seen such devices, they explained it enthusiastically to him. They even taught him how to use a phone.

Meanwhile, Benjamin fixed his gaze on Arissa when he saw her behaving oddly. “Arissa! Arissa?”

The six children turned to look over.

Sensing the movements, Arissa quickly wiped the corner of her eyes and lifted his head to look Benjamin swiftly in the eye.

Right then, he stood up. “Follow me.”

Realizing his tone was a little forceful, he spoke in a gentler tone. “Please come out for a while. Make sure you guys eat your food.”

His final sentence was a reminder for the kids.

Arissa was a little dejected, and it was not appropriate to scare the children. Hearing that, Arissa rose to her feet to exit the lounge.

“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Gavin cast her a worried look.

“It’s nothing.” Arissa smiled and followed Benjamin out.

The six children stared at them while Jasper scolded himself, “Did Mommy cry because of me?”

Jesse pursed her lips. “If she were to cry because of that, she would’ve cried long ago. She must’ve thought of something sad.”

Zachary glanced at his silly siblings, and a glint flashed past his eyes. “Hurry up and eat. We can just ask Mommy later.”

Jasper and Jesse looked at him and turned to the door.

Oliver and Tim were confused.

Why did Mommy cry?
