Chapter 815 He Was A Fool
“So soon?” Aaron gave them a look of surprise. “Yes, I have something else to attend to.” Kingsley patted Aaron on the shoulder. “We won’t be getting in the way of your wedding night then. Anyway, remember to share your exciting stories in bed with us tomorrow.”
Aaron’s lips twitched, while Shaun and Jonathan were equally speechless. “All right then. I’ll walk you guys out.”
Aaron felt bad to see them leave. “Don’t worry about us. You have lots on your plate already. Bye now!” As Benjamin nodded and led Arissa out, the latter, too, gave Aaron a polite nod.
Subsequently, Shaun and Jonathan gave Aaron their best wishes before leaving with Benjamin. Before Kingsley could go, Aaron hurriedly stopped him. “Was it something my sister said?”
“You had better ask her instead. Besides, it’s not like you don’t know Benjamin. You should be delighted that he even turned up,” Kingsley whispered.
Aaron gave Benjamin a look before shifting his attention to Arissa.
“How long has Benjamin known her? Why haven’t I seen her before?”
“Let me share a secret with you. Arissa is Gavin’s biological mother.”
Smiling, Kingsley patted the shocked Aaron on his back before heading out the door.
Gavin’s biological mother?
With that, Aaron let out a sigh as he watched the group leave. It looks like my sister doesn’t stand a chance at all.
While they were at the door, Benjamin and the gang left their wedding presents for Aaron before finally leaving.
“Arissa, you should give these sweets we got as door gifts to the children.”
Kingsley collected the sweets from Shaun and Jonathan before stuffing all of them, including his own, into Arissa’s hands.
“Thank you!” Arissa received them with a grin. “Aren’t you coming along?”
“We are,” Kingsley answered with a grin.
He couldn’t peel his gaze away from Arissa. She’s really gorgeous and looks like a good match with Benjamin when they stand side by side.
At that moment, Benjamin’s eyes narrowed as if to send Kingsley a warning.
“Even if you go over with us, I’m not letting you come in.”
“Why?” Kingsley protested.
Benjamin simply snorted as he escorted Arissa into the car.
Staring at the unpredictable Benjamin, Arissa reprimanded him once they got into the car, “Why did you speak to Mr. Watts that way? He will still be hurt even though he’s a good friend.”
Benjamin gave her the side-eye. “He deserves it for what happened at the dinner table.”
The corners of Arissa’s mouth twitched.
“I’m sure he didn’t do it on purpose.”
“But I’ve warned him many times already.”
Benjamin, glaring at her with his brows furrowed, snapped in a deep voice, “You’re not allowed to defend him.”
Arissa was speechless.
As a result, Shaun and Jonathan gave Kingsley a sympathetic pat on his shoulders. “We’re going now. You should head home by yourself.”
“F*ck it! I’m going, no matter what.”
All of a sudden, Kingsley scrambled into the back seat ahead of the others.
Subsequently, Shaun took the front seat, while Jonathan joined Kingsley at the back so that the bodyguard could drive.
“Didn’t Benjamin say that you’re not allowed to enter his house? Why do you still insist on coming along?”
Turning around, Shaun gave Kingsley a look of amusement.
Kingsley glared at him. “How would he know if you don’t tell him?”
The bodyguard manning the wheel was dumbfounded.
After throwing the bodyguard a glance, Jonathan smirked at Kingsley. “Do you take Benjamin for a fool?”
Kingsley gave him the side-eye. “He’s one indeed.”
Upon exchanging glances, Shaun and Jonathan laughed.
“Why don’t you say that to his face?”
“Am I wrong? If he isn’t a fool, how did he manage to be tricked by Danna for so many years?”
Shaun and Jonathan were naturally stumped.
“Hey, Jonathan, you must not let her off the hook. That despicable woman has to pay dearly for her misdeeds,” Kingsley reminded Jonathan in the midst of his rant, to which the latter nodded.
“I know. I have gathered all the evidence that’s needed. We’re just waiting for the trial to begin.”
Jonathan was brimming with confidence, as the case was a straightforward one.
Kingsley nodded in response. “Good.”
As something suddenly occurred to Shaun, he asked Jonathan, “Given that Danna is somehow related to Aaron’s family, would she seek them out?”
