The More the Merrier novel Chapter 578

Chapter 578 A Little Romantic

When they had almost finished eating, the children started getting out of bed one after another as the tantalizing smell of the food roused them from their slumber.

Tim was the first to wake up, and sensing his movements, Gavin and Zachary also followed suit.

“Could it be that Mommy is making breakfast again?”

Zachary glanced around but did not see Arissa.

“Let’s go out and take a look!” Gavin suggested, calling for the two other buys to follow him. The trio ran outside together, and their eyes widened when they saw Arissa eating breakfast with Benjamin.

They could not help thinking that the scene before them looked a little romantic.

Seeming to sense their presence, Arissa turned and saw the three brothers standing rooted to the spot in shock.

She beckoned at them happily. “Sweethearts, why are you just standing there? Come over!”

Gavin, Zachary, and Tim rushed over to them with a chorus of greetings.

“Mommy!”

Mommy!”

“Ms. York!”

“Daddy!”

“Mr. Graham!”

“Mr. Graham!”

Benjamin nodded at them. “Good morning.”

Their sweet and adorable voices melted Arissa’s heart, and she pulled them to her. “Come and have breakfast with me. Aren’t the others up yet?”

“Mommy, we haven’t washed our faces!” Zachary piped up as he stared at the delicious spread on the table.

Gavin and Tim nodded. “And we haven’t brushed our teeth!”

Smiling, Arissa stood up and quickly brought them to wash up.

“Come on. Go and brush your teeth first.”

After leading them to the bathroom, she went to the bedroom to wake the three younger children.

She leaned over and nudged them gently. “Sweethearts, it’s time to get up.”

Jasper turned onto his front and hugged the covers while Oliver also rolled away.

Arissa picked her up in her arms and kissed her cheek. “Come on. I’ll take you to go wash your face.”

Jesse wrapped her arms around Arissa’s neck and leaned against the latter’s shoulder, still half-asleep.

Then, Jesse sniffed at her and asked, “Mommy, you’ve had breakfast already?”

Although Jesse was half asleep, she was still thinking about food. Arissa gazed at her in amusement and said, “Yes. I’ve almost finished with my breakfast.”

“Then is there any more left?” Jesse asked with a yawn. The thought of getting up to eat something delicious was tempting. However, she also felt like sleeping, and the two opposing thoughts locked horns in an inner conflict.

“Yes. But if you continue sleeping, there might not be any left for you to eat by the time you wake up,” Arissa replied, teasing her daughter.

Jesse pouted. “This is a hotel. I can just ask the kitchen staff to make some more.”

“Do you have money?” Arissa asked, arching her brow.

Jesse bowed her head and mumbled in a defeated tone, “No.”

Arissa carried her daughter into the bathroom with a chuckle and placed her on a chair. Dampening a towel with warm water, she proceeded to wipe Jesse’s face.

Jesse felt much more awake after that.

Then, Arissa squeezed some toothpaste onto Jesse’s toothbrush. “Hurry up and brush your teeth.”
