Chapter 639 We Need Some Coffee
Ethen quickly took out a monetary gift for Seth, who then rejected it.
“No, what’s this for? You don’t need to give me this! It’s not as if her treatment is free!”
“Just take it. It’s for the flowers for James and whatnot.”
Ethen forced him to take it, and Seth reluctantly took it.
Kingsley and Shaun found themselves finding the place a pleasant one as they looked at the honest elderly man.
“Mr. Seth, we’ll be leaving now. Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of them. I’ll treat you to a meal when we’re back here again.”
Arissa enthusiastically said to Seth. The sweet smile on her face made Seth smile in return.
“Okay, I’ll be waiting for you!” Seth answered.
After one last nod at Seth, Benjamin got into the car.
Bradley bid the elderly man farewell before entering the car.
Kingsley and the rest did the same.
Seth watched them leave. When he saw the others running after the car, he cried out, “Do you not have a car?”
“It’s fine! We’re only running to the house over there. The helicopter is there!” Ethen told him.
Seth smiled and nodded. It was only after they were out of his line of sight did he finally went back home and lock the door.
Once they reached Arissa’s house, Benjamin asked Arissa, “Do you want to go in and take a look at the place?”
Arissa glimpsed at the house and shook her head. “Let’s go back to Dellmoor. I’ll come back here next time.”
“Mommy, are we really not going to go in?” Jasper asked, tilting his head to stare at her.
The other children turned to look at her as well.
Tim, too, was looking at the pretty house, hoping to have a look inside.
“Great-grandaunt needs to go for her treatment. We’ll come back here during the holidays.”
“Bring them in for a tour. I’m not in a rush,” Mary interrupted when she saw the eager look on the children’s faces.
Arissa smiled at that before turning to Benjamin.
“Then, you should show them around,” he said.
“Boss, I’ve already cleaned up the place yesterday. Let’s sit around for a little while,” Bradley told her.
The smile on Arissa’s face widened, and she nodded. “Let’s head in.”
By then, Kingsley and the others arrived, panting.
“Mrs. Graham, we need a drink!”
Arissa looked at them in amusement and replied, “That I do have. Head in.”
She then asked Bradley to enter and make drinks for them.
The six children were thrilled, and they immediately ran into the house.
“Mommy, hurry up!”
Arissa grinned and wheeled Mary in while Kingsley and the others entered the house as quickly as the children did.
“Come in,” Arissa said to the other men who had yet to enter.
“Okay,” Benjamin answered, giving her a brief glance.
Once they entered, Kingsley and Shaun started observing the design of the house. They were greeted by the vibrant sight of nature, and they could not stop singing praises about the beauty of the place.
“Mrs. Graham, this is a nice place to spend the holidays at. We should come here for team building next time,” Shaun remarked with a chuckle.
“Sure! I’ll hand you the keys when you come,” Arissa generously replied.
“There are dozens of them coming for team building. Are you sure there’s enough space here for all of them?”
Benjamin, on the other hand, disagreed. He did not like strangers living in the house.
An amused laugh escaped Shaun. “Can’t I live here by myself?”
Benjamin scoffed.
Arissa watched them interact with smiling eyes before filling a glass of water for Mary.
After that, she walked over to Bradley’s spot and helped him out with the coffee brewing.
Meanwhile, Zachary and the others towed Tim upstairs. Once again, the wooden house turned into a lively place.
As Kingsley lounged on the couch, he sighed loudly. “This is so comfortable. I don’t even want to go back anymore.”
Shaun teased. “You can stay here to watch over the place. I’m sure Mrs. Graham won’t have anything to say about that.”
Mary laughed. “You can spend a few days here before going back!”
Kingsley quickly shook his head. “No, it’s boring to stay here by myself. It’ll be more convenient for me to head back with the rest of you.”
Meanwhile, Benjamin’s gaze was on the kitchen. When he saw Arissa standing with Bradley and merrily chatting away, he knitted his brows.
“Ethen, go and help them out.”
With that, Ethen promptly went over.
“Ms. York, please take a break and let us do this instead.”
