The More the Merrier novel Chapter 991

Chapter 991

Just as they arrived at the dining room, Kingsley, Ethen, and Jack stepped out of the study.

Arissa was surprised to see them. “Why are you guys awake so early? Don't tell me you didn't sleep a wink last night.”

When she saw how tired all of them looked, she figured they had been up all night.

“Indeed. We didn't sleep last night,” complained Kingsley, blinking piteously with his eyes that had severe dark circles under them.

That evoked a chuckle from Arissa. “Come on. Take your seats. Let's have breakfast together,” she offered.

“Okay!” Kingsley accepted the offer readily and took his seat hurriedly. After all, they only came out because they heard the noises outside.

Benjamin cast Kingsley a glance before directing his gaze toward Ethen and Jack.

Noting that, Ethen instantly reported, “Mr. Graham, we've completed the investigation.”

Benjamin nodded in acknowledgment, then jerked his chin toward the dining table. “Let's eat.”

“Okay!”

Thrilled to pieces, the two men sat beside Kingsley excitedly.

Arissa glanced at them but dared not ask them for the details since the children were present.

Hence, she said, “Let's eat. Boy, look at how severe your dark circles are. You guys should get some sleep after breakfast.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Graham!” Ethen and Jack shouted cheerily.

Arissa could not help but feel embarrassed when she heard that.

Chuckling, Kingsley glanced at her and Benjamin before chiding Ethen and Jack smilingly, “Don't be so loud. Mr. Graham will kick you two out if you give Arissa a fright.”

At that, the duo sneaked a peek at Benjamin and slowly retracted their gaze, falling into complete silence.

In the meantime, the six children observed them intently.

Unable to hold in his curiosity, Zachary asked, “Mr. Frank, what did you find?”

Ethen looked at the intelligent boy before stealing another glance at Benjamin. The former dared not reveal much without the other man's permission.

“Eat.” Benjamin shot a glance at Zachary. He clearly had no intentions of letting him in on the matter.

Only Oliver adjusted his glasses and asked, “Mr. Watts, are we not nicely dressed now?'

Kingsley chortled at the boy's response.

He gave the boy a thumbs up and commented, “You look nice, but I was wondering if you'll be wearing a nicer outfit.”

Oliver flashed him a bashful smile. If one were to look closer, one would notice the cunning glint of a fox in his eyes.

“We'll change into our outfits after we've finished eating. Otherwise, we might accidentally dirty it,” he informed Kingsley.

Chuckling, Kingsley shifted his gaze to Jesse. “What about you, Jesse? Are you wearing a dress later?”

Arissa froze. That's right. This is an important event. Should Jesse put on a dress?

However, everyone thought Jesse was a boy in the past, so they had prepared a boy's outfit for her, just like her brothers'.

“I'm not wearing a dress later, Mr. Watts. I'm wearing a cool suit!”

Jesse's sweet voice and pink cheeks melted everyone's hearts.
