Chapter 109 Stay Over

Even though she was reluctant to part with Gavin, she felt guilty of making the other four kids starve if she were to let Benjamin and Gavin stay any longer.

“Yes, Mommy. I like it here. I like you. I like my brothers,” Gavin said. He muttered the last part rather softly.

“Mommy likes you too!”

Arissa was overjoyed to hear him say that. She kissed him over and over again.

As Benjamin watched them exchange goodbye kisses, he felt a pang of jealousy.

Arissa ushered Gavin to the living room. She said to Benjamin, “Mr. Graham, Gavin’s done with his meal!”

In other words, it was time for them to leave.

Benjamin shot her and Gavin a glance before beckoning the latter over.

“Come over here, Gavin!”

Gavin obediently complied.

Arissa’s gaze remained on her son as he approached Benjamin.

Noticing her relentless gaze, Benjamin snorted inwardly at her doting attitude toward Gavin.

“Do you like it here?” Benjamin asked Gavin.

The boy’s eyes lit up. He nodded fervently. “Yes!”

“Then we shall stay for a little while longer!” Benjamin patted Gavin’s head and suggested.

Benjamin’s suggestion had put her in a tight spot, as it would seem impolite if she forced them to
