Chapter 548 Hot Egg Delivery âTim, come here!â Arissa called her son in a soft voice.
âWhy you didnât tell us that you were going to the mall, Mommy? Do you shop in secret?â
Jasperâs feet swung irritably as he voiced his displeasure.
Arissa laughed. âI just went running a quick errand of getting some clothes. Weâd take all day if I were to bring you kids with me.â
Oliver grinned. âWeâre not slowing you down, are we? We just wanted to come with you, thatâs all!â
Arissa knocked Oliver on the head playfully as she beckoned Tim to come over.
âCome try these on, Tim. Letâs see if they fit.â
âYou should have brought Tim to shop for his clothes, Mommy.â Zachary pulled Tim forward as he spoke. âThat way, you wouldnât have to worry about whether or not they fit. What a hassle it would be if you had to return to the shop to get them changed if they didnât fit Tim!â
âIt was a last-minute plan, all right?â
Arissa smiled helplessly at his indignance as she pulled Tim over and pulled a shirt over his head.
âIs it a good fit?â she asked, gazing at her son with a twinkle in her eye as she smoothed the front of his shirt.
Tim chanced a sheepish glance at Arissa before hurrying away.
Stunned by his sudden movement, Arissaâs eyes followed Tim.
The child ran to the coffee table to procure something she could not see before jogging back again.
When he returned, she saw a hot egg, freshly boiled, in his little hand as he handed it to her.
âHere, Ms. York!â
Arissa was deeply moved as she hurriedly took it from him. Putting the egg down, she held both the boyâs hands in hers and blew into them. âDid you burn yourself?â
âNot at all. My skin is extraordinarily thick! Put it over your eye, Ms. York. The heat will help!â
Arissa wrinkled her nose. âI will. Thank you, Sweetheart!â
Overwhelmed with emotion, she hugged Tim and kissed him on the cheek. âHelp yourself to your new clothes while I dab my eyes, will you?â
Tim nodded.
Gavin and the other four smiled fondly at the scene.
âSit over here, Mommy. Iâll massage your eyes!â
Jasper made sure she was comfortable, leading her into a seat near him before he ran the warm egg over her closed eyelids.
âIâll help you, Tim!â
Gavin came over and took out the new clothes.
Zachary, too, stepped forward to help.
Tim took off his shirt and tried on the pants again.
Oliver took out his shoes from the shopping bag in the meantime. Jesse stood to the side and happily watched her brother try on some new clothes.
âYou look so handsome, Tim!â
Tim blushed. âThank you!â
âTry on those shoes, Tim,â suggested Oliver as he crouched down to loosen the shoelaces.
âComing!â
Tim sat on the ground and took his time putting them on.
Even Mary beamed at the sight before her.
Benjamin entered and smiled ever so slightly at the sight of the children flocked around Tim before announcing his arrival.
âTim, have you tried on all the new clothes?â
Tim leaped obediently to his feet. âYes. Iâve tried on everything Ms. York bought.â
Benjamin tousled the boyâs head. âDo they fit?â
Tim nodded. âThey do!â
âTry on the altered ones again.â
Gavin had already taken them out of the bag at Benjaminâs words and was holding it out for Tim.
Benjamin glanced at the children before addressing Arissa, âEthen will drop by with food in a few minutes.â
Arissa jumped as she took the egg before glancing at him.
Then, she closed her eyes so Tim could continue rubbing the egg over her eye sockets.
Benjamin raised his brows before sauntering over. Along the way, he motioned for the boy to step aside.
Jasper did not cooperate. âIâll do Mommyâs eyes!â
With a displeased frown, Benjamin shoved the boy aside casually and snatched the egg from his chubby little hand.
Jasperâs face contorted with anger. âBandit!â
Arissa opened her eyes at the commotion and was surprised to see Benjamin seated next to her.
âKeep them shut!â he ordered.
âI can do this on my own,â she said hastily.
Oh God, so many people are watching.
Arissa touched her neck, feeling a tad warm at the moment.
Tired of having his orders defied, Benjamin leaned into Arissa intrusively and startled her so much that she squeezed her eyes shut.
His thin lips curled upward in triumph, Benjamin turned his attention toward the task at hand.
âWhy are your eyes are swollen? Did you not sleep well?â
