The More The Merrier

Chapter 788 I Am An Extra

Benjamin thought that the way the little guy ate his food was exactly like Arissa. He could not help but correct his son. “Don’t scarf down your food, Jasper. Chew longer before swallowing.”

Darius found it amusing. “Slow down. There’s still a lot more. They are prepared just for you lot.” Jasper smiled and stuck his tongue out cheekily.

“You’re eating as if you’re in an eating competition,” remarked Oliver. “Hmph! I’m worried that you’ll steal my food!” Jasper protested defiantly.

Their silly antics made everyone burst out laughing. “It’s a miracle that you didn’t take mine!” Oliver pushed his glasses up and pinched Jasper’s cheek. Zachary glanced at them and advised, “Stop fooling around. Hurry up and finish your snacks.”

Tim had never been there. So, he waited for his brothers and sister to make a decision. When the kids heard about visiting the Old Manor, they instinctively glanced at Benjamin, seemingly checking his approval.

Gavin, for one, never liked going to the Old Manor.

Seeing his older brother remain quiet, Zachary followed suit.
