Chapter 867 All Thanks To My Wife The more Aaron stared at the six adorable children, the more envious he felt. âHey, Benjamin, youâve moved so fast that no one can catch up with you! I canât believe youâve given us so many surprises in just one night. Congratulations!â
âItâs all thanks to my wife!â Benjamin replied with a smile as he continued to pile food on Arissaâs plate. The latter glanced at him and lightly chided, âYou have to eat more too. Donât just focus on drinking wine!â
The next second, she promptly scooped some food onto his plate. Benjamin continued chatting with Aaron and the rest as everyone began eating happily.
Rosetta, on the other hand, stared at him in utter disbelief. Huh? Doesnât Benjamin hate it when people take food for him?
Meanwhile, the six children puffed their cheeks out in anger when they saw Rosettaâs eyes fixed on their father. Gosh, how much more shameless can this woman get? She obviously has ulterior motives for coming to the dinner!
Upon meeting the kidsâ baleful glares, Rosetta quickly squeezed out a faint smile. âHello, kids!â
Alas, they ignored her and continued with their meals, which all but wiped the smile off her face. Aaron, however, couldnât stop gazing at the six angelic-looking kids with a touch of envy.
âBenjamin has such a blessed life!â he commented. Upon hearing that, Shaun chuckled. âIf you work harder and faster, you can be just as blessed as him!â
âHaha! How can I ever catch up to him?â Aaron replied. Not only does Benjamin have six kids, but theyâre all already this big! Iâm so jealous!
âThere, there, stop being envious of him. Letâs drink up!â Kingsley cheered as he raised his glass.
Soon, everyone was taking turns drinking a toast to Benjamin and congratulating him while Arissa and the kids happily savored the food.
Even as he entertained his friends, Benjamin never stopped getting food for his wife and children.
âItâs your turn to drink with us, Arissa!â Kingsley exclaimed before feeling Benjaminâs death glare on him. âUm... You can have juice instead of wine!â
Arissa smiled in response. âSure. Iâm fine with juice!â
With that, she stood up with her glass of juice and clinked glasses with everyone.
âArissa, Benjamin has quite a foul temper, so please try to put up with him in the future!â Kingsley teased.
âThatâs right. And if Benjamin ever pisses you off, you can come to us for help!â Shaun chimed in.
Jonathan laughed. âMay you two live happily ever after!â
âMr. Graham, Mrs. Graham, hereâs wishing you a long and happy marriage!â Ethen and Jack exclaimed.
âArissa, Benjamin collected the marriage certificate with you because he has his heart set on you for life,â Aaron quipped. âNo returns allowed! You have to spend a long, loving life with him!â
âThank you! Thank you, everyone!â Arissa said as she drank a few glasses of juice jovially.
Just then, Rosetta stood up with her glass of wine. âIâd like to propose a toast too!â
Everyone whipped around to stare at her, worried that she might say something to ruin the mood.
To their surprise, Rosetta managed to keep herself in check.
âMs. York, Benjaminâs a pretty good guy. I wish you two all the best!â she said before downing her glass of wine.
Whether Rosetta had meant her words or not, Arissa knew she had to be polite. âThank you, Ms. Adams!â
Rosetta smiled faintly before turning to Benjamin, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
âHereâs a toast to you, too, Benjamin!â
Unfortunately, the latter narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
As the atmosphere became increasingly awkward, Arissa secretly nudged her husband.
When Benjamin saw the look in her eyes, he finally gave in and lifted his gaze to Rosetta.
âAppreciate it,â he replied coldly, still refusing to raise his glass.
Despite the awkwardness, Rosetta kept her smile on. âYouâve already had a lot to drink tonight, so donât worry about it! Have more food!â
âThatâs right. Letâs tuck in!â Kingsley added.
Benjamin went on to enjoy his meal.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 866 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You When Arissa realized how he was blatantly ignoring Rosetta, she didnât bother with the latter either as she continued entertaining the others.
Ah, why should I care? I know how Rosetta feels about my husband, so thereâs no need for me to be nice to her.
âStop talking to them and eat up!â Benjamin said as he piled more food onto Arissaâs plate.
