The More the Merrier novel Chapter 808

Chapter 808 My Lipstick

Arissa did not feel it appropriate to go to the hospital since Benjamin had already informed her in advance of the banquet, so she went upstairs to get some rest.

She did not realize the stylist’s arrival until Edwin woke her up. She hurriedly took a shower before the stylist pampered her with all kinds of spa treatments. Then, the stylist proceeded to do Arissa’s hair.

Arissa hastily answered the phone when her children contacted her. “Mommy, we are going to Great-grandaunt’s place now. Enjoy your date with Daddy,” Gavin said to her.

She was rendered momentarily speechless. “I’m attending a banquet with your daddy. We are not going on a date!” “Hehe. That’s the same, Mommy.”

Jasper guffawed. “Go out and have fun, Mommy. We’ll keep Great-grandaunt company.” Zachary’s voice sounded.

“Okay. All right. Please don’t run around when you all are there, and be sure to spend some quality time with your great-grandaunt,” Arissa reminded the kids before hanging up the call.

After that, she concentrated on letting the stylist do her makeup. The preening process took two hours to complete. She picked up the pink gown placed neatly on the bed and compared the size to her figure before putting it on.

The zip on the back of the gown was slightly out of her reach. She stretched her hand to pull the zipper, but her attempts were unfruitful.

Suddenly, someone grasped the zipper and helped her pull it up.

Arissa turned around in shock. Then, she grinned when she saw Benjamin had returned. “You’re back?”

He stared intently at her gorgeous face and replied in an undertone, “Yes.”

Arissa blinked at him. “I’m ready. You should get changed.”

Benjamin wrapped his arms around her waist. “There’s no hurry.”

Sensing his piercing gaze fixed on her, she flushed. “What banquet are we attending?”

He regarded her with an intense look as he thought she appeared extraordinarily beautiful when wearing makeup.

“A wedding banquet.” He leaned in to kiss her.

Arissa dodged the kiss and stared at him in surprise. “A wedding banquet?”

Benjamin smiled faintly and teased her, “It’s not our wedding banquet.”

She glared at him. “I know that! Who would get married in a pink gown?”

“One of my friends is getting married.”
