Chapter 384 My Eyes Are Red Not Because Of Your Father They refused to believe her, thinking that she was merely tricking them.
However, when they rushed to the fridge and took a look, they were speechless.
Arissa was amused by how disappointed the kids looked.
âIf you want to go to the supermarket, Iâll bring you there after eating!â She could not bear to see them so disappointed.
âWow! Thatâs great!â cheered the five kids happily. Even Gavin smiled as well.
âI love you, Mommy!â
Arissa did not know what to say.
âSo you donât love me if I donât bring you to the supermarket?â
âWe still do! But if you bring us to the supermarket, weâll love you more, Mommy!â Jesse knew how to flatter someone. Her adorable voice immediately made Arissaâs mood improve.
Smiling, Arissa instructed the kids, âAsk your daddy what he wants to eat!â
However, the five kids shrunk back, none of them wanting to go.
âHuh?â Arissa glanced at them.
âSince Daddy bullied you, Iâm not going!â declared Zachary defiantly.
His siblings chimed in, âWe arenât going either!â
Stunned, Arissa looked at Gavin who was also pouting indignantly.
âYou can just cook yummy food for us, Mommy. No need to care about him!â
Arissa sighed. Why are the kids rejecting Benjamin all of a sudden again?
âHe didnât bully me! What are you doing?â
âMommy, stop lying to us. Your eyes are already red from crying!â scoffed Jasper as he pointed at her eyes.
Arissa was stunned, not knowing that the kids were so observant. Since they had misunderstood, she quickly explained, âMy eyes are red not because your daddy bullied me. This has nothing to do with him!â
Their eyes lit up as they asked, âWhy, then?â
Meeting their worried gazes, Arissa felt moved.
âItâs because of something else!â
She stroked their heads and walked toward the study, deliberately avoiding their question.
The kids exchanged a look with each other.
Mommy didnât fall for the trick. What secret is she hiding from us?
Arissa came to the study and knocked on the door, reminding the man inside.
Benjamin raised his head. âCome in!â
When Arissa met his gaze, her heart skipped a beat.
âWhat do you want to eat for dinner?â
He frowned. âAre you cooking tonight?â
Arissa nodded. âYeah!â
âDonât! Let Edwin do it,â instructed Benjamin solemnly.
Thinking that he was afraid of her cooking something weird again, she cleared her throat.
âI wonât cook anything inedible. What do you want to eat?â she asked again.
âYou still havenât recovered. If youâre too bored, play with the kids instead. Edwin can cook dinner!â repeated Benjamin before resuming his work.
Arissa felt touched. âIâve already recovered.â
When he ignored her, she pouted and headed to the kitchen.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 383 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You Upon noticing that she wanted to cook, Edwin stopped her and chased her out.
However, since Arissa insisted on staying, he had no choice but to let her cook while he helped out.
âMs. York, let me handle these ingredients! You can just do the cooking later.â
âLetâs do it together. Iâm free, anyway!â
Arissa stayed in the kitchen instead of leaving. Just like that, she spent more than an hour preparing five dishes and a soup.
They were all the kidsâ favorite. Since Benjamin did not specify what he wanted to eat, she did not cook anything else.
âSweethearts, dinnerâs ready!â yelled Arissa in the direction of the living room. The five kids immediately tossed their toys aside and ran over.
Looking at the table filled with delicious food, they gulped.
âWow! Thereâs so much yummy food!â
âWash your hands! Itâs about time for dinner,â ordered Arissa before calling Benjamin over to eat.
