The More the Merrier novel Chapter 957

Chapter 957 Dote on Others

“Thank you, Mommy!” Jesse was ecstatic. She liked that both her brothers and Arissa treated her well. Edwin glanced at them and asked, “Mrs. Graham, did Mr. Graham have the oxtail soup too?”

Arissa nodded. “Yes. He had some on the way here.” Edwin was gobsmacked at this information. This was something he had not anticipated at all.

Never in his wildest dreams did he expect Benjamin to eat oxtail soup like that. After all, the latter was very particular about his cleanliness.

“Not bad, Mrs. Graham! Mr. Graham usually wouldn’t eat food like this!” Arissa smiled. Indeed. “This isn’t good. He’s such a picky eater!”

“Mr. Graham is just very particular about cleanliness. He doesn’t ingest any form of offal even if it tastes good.”

Edwin revealed much about Benjamin to Arissa, including details about Benjamin’s eccentricities.

Arissa and the children could not help but laugh at that. “Mr. Graham is so adorable!” said Oliver, fidgeting with his glasses.

Arissa was not sure if she wanted to laugh or cry.

“I wonder if you dare say that in front of your daddy?”

Oliver giggled.

If his father had been around, he would’ve said it in hushed tones.

Arissa had some soup and left the rest for the kids.

“Mrs. Graham, this is some proper oxtail soup you’ve got. The meat is so delicious and tender! Where did you buy this?”

Edwin could not resist such delicious food.

“I bought this at a place near the amusement park,” replied Arissa with a smile.

“Oh, you went to the amusement park?” asked Edwin, his eyes shining. And it was Mr. Graham who brought them there?

Arissa nodded in response. “Yes. Benjamin promised that he’d take the kids out to play, remember?”

He only managed to fulfill his promise after a few days.

Suddenly, realization dawned on Edwin as he exclaimed, “Mr. Graham knows how to dote on others now!”

There was a ghost of a smile in Edwin’s eyes when he looked at Arissa. He was clearly talking about her.

Arissa looked flustered all of a sudden. “Didn’t he bring Gavin out the last time?”

Gavin shook his head and hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth before replying, “Dad brought me along on a work trip, but we didn’t go anywhere fun. It was Mr. Watts and the others who brought me around.”
