Chapter 231 Benjamin Does Not Know
“Can you please put us down?” Zachary asked while shielding his face. He didn’t like to be kissed by others.
“Uncle Shaun, Uncle Kingsley, stop scaring my younger brothers and sister!” Gavin looked at them sternly.
Shaun blinked and stared at Gavin. “You’re Gavin? Where’s your sister? All I see are little boys. I don’t see a girl, though.”
Kingsley was extremely curious as well. He looked at all of them carefully, yet he couldn’t see a girl anywhere.
Could it be that there’s another one that we don’t know about?
“We’ll tell you if you put us down,” Oliver said slyly.
Shaun and Kingsley were reluctant to let them down. After some time, they finally put the kids down and ruffled their hair.
“Can you tell us now?” Kingsley gently pinched Jasper’s cheek and looked at the five adorable kids.
Benjamin’s kids are really good-looking. They look just like him when he was little!
Shaun couldn’t help himself and pinched Jesse’s cheek as well.
Jesse ran and hid behind her brother.
The five of them ran away and said in unison, “We won’t tell you!”
Shaun and Kingsley raised their eyebrows in response to what the kids said. Err… we were played by the little ones!
Despite that, they
weren’t angry at all, and they looked at the little ones in amusement.
“Or maybe you don’t have a sister and you lied to us on purpose?” the adults asked.
“Hmph! We didn’t lie. It’s true!” Jasper countered.
Zachary’s eyes sparkled as he said, “Let’s see if you can find out which of us is a girl.”
Shaun and Kingsley believed him and started scanning all of them once more.
All of them look like boys.
“Could it be you?” Kingsley said to Jesse.
As soon as he said it, all the kids looked surprised.
Kingsley was pleasantly surprised. “Did I get it right?” he asked and carried Jesse.
Jesse looked at him with her big, round eyes and red cheeks. “Hi, mister. I’m a girl.”
“Aww! You’re so cute!” Kingsley exclaimed and touched her chubby cheeks. She had completely won him over.
“Sweetheart, what’s your name?”
“I’m Jesse York. Mom and the boys call me Jesse,” she replied.
“Why are you dressed up like a boy?” Shaun asked while patting her head.
“That’s because Mommy told me that I won’t be in danger if I wear the same outfit as my brothers and look like a boy.”
Well, that’s true. She looks so adorable even when she’s dressed up like a boy. She’ll definitely be snatched away if she wears girls’ clothes.
“Benjamin still doesn’t know about her, so you mustn’t tell him, okay? This is our secret!” Zachary reminded them.
Shaun and Kingsley exchanged glances with one another. They were extremely excited to know something that Benjamin didn’t.
“Okay!” they agreed immediately.
“What about you guys? What are your names?” they continued to ask while looking at the rest of the kids.
“Mister, shouldn’t you introduce yourself before asking for our names?” Zachary asked them.
“Hahahaha!” The two adults laughed out loud.
“I’m Shaun Bailey, your daddy’s best friend.”
“I’m Kingsley Watts, I’m your daddy’s best pal.”
Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse’s mouths twitched a little and looked at them with their big eyes.
How are these two amusing people good friends with an iceberg like Benjamin? The kids wondered, but they still replied to Shaun and Kingsley politely.
“I’m Zachary, the second child!”
“My name’s Oliver, the third child!”
“I’m Jasper, the fourth child!”
“These are beautiful names,” Shaun said with a smile and patted their heads.
Kingsley had been nodding while smiling all this time. “So, Gavin is the first child, and you are Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse.”
