The More the Merrier novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793 May I Take Them Away Now

Ethen and Jack smiled sheepishly. “I don’t think you’re in any difficult position, Mrs. Graham!” Ethen joked. Arissa threw Ethen a sharp glance and reminded him, “You’d better be careful before Mr. Graham deducts all your bonuses!”

Ethen pursed his lips and kept silent. Jack, too, kept quiet. None of them dared to gossip anymore. Edwin chuckled. “Mrs. Graham, come and help yourself to some fruits!”

Arissa walked over to Edwin and asked, “Edwin, do we have any picture frames at home? The kind with a glass window!” Edwin racked his mind, frowning as he did so. “Well, yes, but how big must the frames be?”

“Big enough to display a certificate!” Arissa was not sure if Benjamin had already mentioned the matter to Edwin. However, the children only had several pieces of certificates. There was not quite enough to decorate the walls yet.

Nonetheless, she had nothing better to do. So, she thought she would frame up the children’s certificates and awards anyway. “I’ll try and find some!” Edwin said. Then he turned and hurried off to look for the frames.

Jack followed him. “I’ll go with Edwin and help him!”

Ethen glanced at Arissa shyly. “Mrs. Graham, have you made up with Mr. Graham?”

Arissa was speechless for a moment. “Why are you calling me Mrs. Graham too?”

“I’m just practicing for the future!” Ethen replied with a smile. “So, have you two really reconciled?”

Arissa’s face burned red. “Almost.”

Ethen was happy to hear her reply. Mr. Graham must be in a good mood! No wonder he’s helping the kids with their homework.

“Well, I’m gonna go help Edwin, too!”

Ethen quickly ran off to join Edwin and Jack to find frames.

Arissa was amused by their eagerness. She popped a piece of fruit into her mouth before walking into the study.

Benjamin was still explaining earnestly to their youngest daughter, but the girl’s eyelids were already drooping. She rubbed her eyes in a way that almost made Arissa laugh.

“Benjamin, you’ve been tutoring them for almost an hour! It’s about time for a break!”

“Let me finish teaching Jesse!”

When Benjamin noticed Jesse’s sleepy eyes, he sighed to himself and said sternly, “Jesse!”

Jesse immediately flew upright in her chair.

She sat primly with her hands on her knees. Benjamin’s heart melted, and he softened his tone when he said, “Listen carefully!”

“Okay!” Jesse replied with a firm nod.

However, once Benjamin resumed his lecture, she began to nod off again.
