The More The Merrier Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Who Is That Little Girl

“So sorry to trouble you, Mr. Frank!” Arissa greeted Ethen with a smile.

“It’s nothing. Jesse is so adorable!” Ethen stroked Jesse’s head and nodded to Arissa before heading

back to the car.

Seeing him leave, Arissa held Jesse in her arms and directed her in the opposing direction.

“Mommy, how is your boss? Is he handsome? Is he a nice person?” Jesse asked curiously.

“I haven’t spent enough time with him to know him well. However, he is a handsome guy indeed!”

“Is he an old man?” Jesse blinked her clear eyes naively.

Arissa broke into a smile at her childish question. She shook her head and answered, “Nope. He is just a

bit older than me.”

Suddenly, she turned in the car’s direction. Sensing her gaze, Ethen nodded at her. The latter nodded

back too.

Once Ethen got into the car, Benjamin’s voice rang behind him, “Who’s that little girl?”

“Oh, that’s Ms. York’s daughter!” Ethen turned around to reply. He realized Benjamin was staring outside

with his gaze darkened, pondering to himself.

To be honest, Benjamin was quite surprised that Arissa had a child. Is she married?

Retracting his gaze, he asked, “Isn’t she single, according to her profile?”

“Ms. York is single indeed. I did not know that she has a child too until today,” Ethen answered

innocently.



Benjamin squinted at his reply as resentment clouded on his face.

Why is her information all fake?

“Start the car.”

“Okay.” Ethen rubbed his nose.

“Send me her phone number.”

Ethen took out his phone hastily and read the number out to him.

Finally, he could not help but voice out his curiosity. “Mr. Graham, may I know what you chatted with her

just now?”

Benjamin shot him a glare in return.

Ethen did not have the guts to pursue his question. Thus, he sat back in his seat and started the engine.

Benjamin swept one last glance at the entrance, intending to have a better look at the little girl’s features,

but to no avail.

On the other hand, Arissa was relieved that they had finally left the place.

She called out to her children, “You may come out now, kids!”

Gavin, Zachary and Oliver showed themselves at once.

“Brothers!” Jesse beamed at the sight of them. “Mommy, I did not let that mister notice their presence just

now!”

Arissa caressed her head lovingly. “Oh, what a good girl!”



Jesse grinned cheekily at her praise.

“Mommy, are they gone?” Zachary took a quick glance outside.

“Yes, they are gone.” Arissa nodded.

“Mommy, why are they looking for you?” Gavin stared at her seriously.

Arissa shook a bit at his question. She recalled Benjamin’s weird behavior just now.

“He invited me to his house to install a new surveillance camera system for him.”

Just did Benjamin realize who I am? If he did, is he trying to test me by inviting me to his house? What a

scary person.

Oliver’s eyes lit at once. Just when he was about to voice out, Zachary managed to cover his mouth in

the nick of time.

Arissa looked at them strangely. “What are you guys doing?”

“Nothing at all, Mommy!” Zachary smiled falsely. “I’m just playing with Oliver!”

Oliver cast annoyed looks at Zachary as he was about to lose his breath.

In return, Zachary shot him a nasty look, signaling him to shut up.

He only let go of Oliver once the latter nodded in reply.

“Argh! I was almost suffocated to death, Zachary!”

Gavin and Jesse were amused by their siblings.



Arissa smiled at their silly act and straightened their clothes. She then took them out to call a cab.

“Alright, we need to go to school now!”

The four children followed her closely, attracting looks from the residents.

Even the security guard lost his thoughts while staring at the five of them, forgetting to give entry permits

to the incoming cars. Annoyed horns rang in the air to pull the guard back to his senses.

Arissa looked around and went to school together with them by taxi.

They planned to walk themselves to school at first. However, Benjamin’s sudden arrival had wasted

some of their time. Hence, they could only travel to school by car to be on time.
