Chapter 728 He Can Finally Go To School
“What don’t you go in our stead?” Oliver suggested. Kingsley’s face froze. “Never.” Kingsley was still scarred from what had happened last time. He was certain Benjamin would forbid him from entering the house if he were to go up then.
Very soon, Jesse came back with a plate of snacks. “Mr. Watts, Mr. Whitley said this is all we have, and you can have it.” “Thank you so much, Jesse!”
Kingsley took the plate from her and started eating. The children watched him eat until the butler came and gave them a cup of yogurt while they waited for their parents.
Meanwhile, Arissa was tying her hair when Benjamin entered the room.
He leaned against the door with his hands in his pockets, gazing intently at her.
“Still not done?”
“Almost!” she said, turning to look at him.
She had already changed into new clothes, and she just needed to put on a bit of makeup.
As Benjamin fixed his gaze on her, Arissa swiftly finished everything in a few minutes and grabbed a handbag, preparing to leave the room.
“I’m done.”
Benjamin tilted his head and stared at her face.
“What’s wrong?” Arissa asked, alerted.
Benjamin grabbed her waist and planted a kiss on her lips.
Arissa could feel her heart skip a beat.
“You look perfect,” Benjamin replied in all seriousness.
His answer elicited a hue of pink on her cheeks, and they left together.
They were met with everyone’s gazes when they went down.
Kingsley’s smile deepened when he saw Benjamin holding Arissa’s hands.
Well, whatever it is, I have to say they look good together.
Even the children’s eyes were glued to their beautiful mother.
“Mommy! You look so beautiful!” Gavin said as he stared unblinkingly at his mother.
Arissa smiled at the boy. “You look handsome too, Sweetheart!”
Gavin chuckled.
The rest of the children praised, “Mommy, you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”
“And all of you are the most handsome boys I’ve ever seen!” Arissa replied smilingly.
A sweet smile spread across her face when she saw her children happy and lively.
Benjamin could not help but feel jealous of the children.
She has never smiled at me that way.
“My sweethearts, have you filled up your water bottles?” Arissa asked.
The children nodded.
“Yes, Daddy had it done for us.”
“Have you all gotten your lunch boxes from Mr. Whitley?”
Arissa went over to check the children’s schoolbags.
“Yes, we have, Mommy,” Zachary replied.
Arissa nodded. Then, she lifted three of the schoolbags in each hand.
They were heavy after the children put in their water bottles.
“Let’s go!” she said, heading out.
“I can take mine, Ms. York!” Tim said, taking his own schoolbag from Arissa.
Arissa glanced at him and asked, “Isn’t it heavy, Tim?”
Tim shook his head. “No. I can carry it.”
Tim looked happy to be carrying his own schoolbag. Deep in his heart, he felt grateful that he was finally able to attend school.
He was so excited that his cheeks flushed red.
Arissa read his mind and let him have his schoolbag.
Right then, Benjamin walked over to her and took the other five schoolbags from her. “You bring the kids to the car.”
Feeling relieved, she beckoned the children over.
Kingsley followed the children out with the plate of snacks in his hand. He could not have enough of the lovable bunch.
He especially adored how cute they sounded when they were calling their mother.
“Mommy, are you going to the hospital to visit Great-grandaunt after you send us to school?”
“Yes.”
“Then, are you picking us up after school?”
“Yes!” Upon hearing Arissa’s reply, the children were elated.
“I want to send them to school too!” Kingsley said with a grin.
Benjamin eyed him in distaste.
“You’re going like this?”
