The More the Merrier Chapter 713

Chapter 713 Explanation

Arissa raised her gaze to look at Benjamin before turning away after seeing how angry he was. “Just say what you want to say.” Benjamin stared at her and his frown deepened when he saw the indifferent look on her face.

In a deep voice, he asked, “Where to?” Arissa was stunned momentarily before answering, “I want to buy a schoolbag.”

A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes. “I’ve already asked Ethen to buy one. He’ll send it over in a while.”

Arissa got upset because she wanted to buy the bag for Tim herself.

Benjamin noticed it, so he said, “Maybe he had picked up an ugly one. You can still go and have a look. We can always buy another for Tim.”

Arissa mulled over his words. Since Ethen has already bought one, wouldn’t it be a waste of money?

“That’s not necessary. Why should we buy more than one? It’s just a waste of money,” she said.

“We can go buy other things, then.” Benjamin glanced at her before turning the steering wheel to drive away.

Casting a glance at him, Arissa thought it would be ideal to buy some stationery for Tim.

While they were on the road, she saw a stationery shop and asked Benjamin to stop the car. “There’s a shop there. Let’s just buy there.”

She wanted to go home right after she bought the stationery.

“We’re going elsewhere to buy.” Instead of stopping, Benjamin kept driving.

Arissa glanced at him in confusion. There’s a shop right here. Why must he go somewhere further?

It wasn’t until they arrived at a high-end commercial area that Benjamin stopped the car. Right then, she understood what was on his mind.

“Let’s go.” Benjamin glanced at her before getting out of the car.

Arissa got out of the car as well.

“The stationery here are better,” Benjamin uttered before bringing her in.

When he tried to grab her hand, however, she shied away. Regardless, he proceeded to grab her hand forcefully and held it tight.

Arissa looked away.

While gazing at her with his narrowed eyes, Benjamin asked, “Are you throwing a tantrum?”

“I wouldn’t have the guts to do so.” Arissa scoffed.

Benjamin’s eyes gleamed. He then reached out his hand to pinch her cheek. “You wouldn’t have the guts to do so? Well, you should look at your puffed-out cheeks, then!”

She glared at him in response, and her gaze swayed a little when she met his darkened gaze. Is this man crazy? Did he forget he was angry at me at noon?

Upon seeing that she was ignoring him, Benjamin explained, “I wouldn’t have gotten angry if you didn’t say those words to me at noon.”

Arissa was stunned. Since he had mentioned it, she turned toward him and asked, “Why were you mad?”

Benjamin simply looked away and led her to the stationery shop.

Arissa didn’t want to ask again upon seeing that he was unwilling to talk about it.

“Let’s shop first.” Benjamin brought her into the shop to buy stationery for Tim.

They ended up buying a lot of stationery, and they even bought some for the other kids.

The corners of Arissa’s lips twitched when she saw the amount upon paying.

Benjamin noticed it. With a smile, he uttered, “I’ll pay for it.”

“That won’t be necessary,” Arissa declined resolutely. If he pays, it would mean that he’s the one who bought it for them.

Benjamin merely glanced at her and let her pay.

Arissa took out her phone to make the payment before leaving with a huge bag of stationery.

Benjamin took the bag from her and held her hand. “Is there anything else you would like to buy?”

“No,” Arissa answered.

“Would you like to go for a walk?”

Shocked, Arissa glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. “No.”

Benjamin sized her up and said, “Let’s go home, then.”

Arissa was okay with that. She didn’t want to go for a walk because she had had a tiring day at the hospital.

She just wanted to get home early so that she could give the kids a shower and bring them to school the next morning.

Benjamin led her to the front passenger seat and opened the car door for her.

Arissa looked at him before getting into the car and fastening her seatbelt.

He then closed the door for her.

After getting into the car himself, he didn’t start the car. Instead, he just stared at her.

Arissa gave him a look and said, “Well? What are you waiting for? Let’s go.”

“How long did Dad cry for?” Benjamin suddenly asked.

Arissa glanced at him and answered, “Quite a while.”
