The More the Merrier novel Chapter 720

Chapter 720 Stay The Night With Us

“Children, come out and dry your hair!” Arissa had already gotten the hair dryer ready when she shouted at them to go over. They sat down on the couch while their mother plugged in the hair dryer.

By that time, Edwin had gotten the milk ready. When he saw that they were occupied, he left the glasses of milk on one side and went to clean the bathroom.

“Mommy, you’re so much better at it than Daddy and Grandpa. You’re so gentle,” Gavin praised smilingly as Arissa blow-dried his hair.

Beside him, Tim nodded in agreement.

Arissa was happy to hear their compliment.

“I like you better too, Mommy,” Zachary added.

“Me too! Me too!” Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse cried out in unison.

The smile on Arissa’s face deepened.

“Go and have some milk. Mr. Whitley left it on the table. Go to bed after that. It’s past ten already,” Arissa instructed as she kept the hair dryer after she was done drying the children’s hair.

Gavin took the glasses of milk and passed it to his brothers and sister.

“Mommy, this is for you.”

“Okay. Thanks.”

When she was done keeping the hair dryer, Arissa went over to the table to join the kids.

After they finished their milk, Arissa hurried them to bed.

After tucking them in, Arissa found the children blinking their round eyes at her in anticipation.

“Mommy,” Jesse called out, “could you sleep with us tonight?”

“Yeah, Mommy. Sleep here,” Gavin insisted.

Seeing that the children were longing for her accompaniment, Arissa agreed to it readily.

“All right. I’ll go shower, and I’ll be back. Okay?”

“Okay!”

The children were glad that Arissa agreed to spend the night with them.

Although Tim did not say anything, the smile on his face was enough to show his happiness.

“Hurry up, Mommy. We’ll be waiting,” Jasper urged.

It had been a long time since Arissa slept in their room.

“Sleep first. No more games,” Arissa replied as she went over to pick up the empty glasses.

It so happened that Edwin had just finished cleaning the bathroom. When he saw Arissa wanting to wash the glasses, he came over to relieve her.
