The More the Merrier novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Jasper Has A Mole

“I arrived at about six o’clock. When I called Zachary and found out that you’d gone to Benjamin Graham’s house, I knew you’d be home late. So, I bought some food and came over.”

Bradley got up and followed Arissa to the kitchen. “Boss, when you were there, did you…”

Instantly, she gave him a signal with her eyes. “We’ll talk about it later!”

He responded with a nod. “Let me help you.”

“Thanks!” She smiled.

When she scanned around, she noticed the kids had actually cooked pasta.

The four kids ran in to help prepare the other dishes.

“Mommy, have you taken your dinner?” Gavin turned around and asked.

“Yes. I ate there before coming home.” Arissa smiled apologetically at the kids.

“Mommy, what does Benjamin Graham’s house look like?” Oliver asked curiously.

As Arissa looked into his twinkling eyes, she patted him gently on the head. “Well, it’s huge and very luxurious.”

“Wow! I would like to have a look at it.” Oliver grinned.

With a smile on her face, she headed toward the sink to wash the pots and pans she needed to prepare dinner.

Just then, Zachary tapped on his younger brother’s head. “What’s there to see?”

“Well, I’m just curious.” Oliver pursed his lips while rubbing his head.

Bradley laughed as he watched the two boys’ interaction. “I can show all of you a mansion if you want.”

Hearing that, Arissa teased, “Are you going to buy a mansion?”

“Boss, don’t make fun of me. If you’re not going to buy one, why should I buy a mansion?”

She burst into laughter. “You’re not like me. I’ve four kids to raise.”

At that moment, Gavin walked over to Oliver and whispered, “If you really want to see the house, you can use my identity to go back there tomorrow.”

Instantly, Oliver’s eyes lit up. “Would this work?”

Gavin replied with a nod.

I’m sure this will work out. Until now, Daddy didn’t realize who Jasper is. Moreover, Jasper has a mole on his arm, while I don’t have one. In order not to blow our cover, we just need to draw a fake mole at the same spot.

Upon seeing that response, Oliver snickered with excitement.
