Chapter 864 Love Or Money

“You guys go ahead.” Benjamin swept a gaze over Kingsley before looking at the children. Glimpsing the longing on their faces, he had the server bring another platter of appetizers. “Go and wash your hands.”

“Quick, go and wash your hands!” Arissa echoed. She stood up and led the way to the restroom. All six children hastily trotted after her. After Arissa had washed their hands, she urged them all to go and relieve themselves.

The children went into the cubicle, one after another. Arissa again helped them wash their hands and wiped them dry before allowing them to leave the restroom.

She herself took a leak before leaving. By then, Jonathan had arrived. Surprise inundated Arissa, for she thought that he would arrive much later.

“Were you lying to me? You said you had something to do, yet you arrived so quickly?” Kingsley teased. The corners of Jonathan’s mouth turned up. “Do I look as though I’d lie?”

“Nope, but when you do so, you’re far more convincing than others!” Kingsley riposted with a snigger. At that, Jonathan chuckled. “That’s only because you’re dumb. Who’s to be blamed?”

“Look at this, everyone! This sanctimonious fellow is nothing more than a scammer!”

Livid to the point that he had steam coming out of his ears, Kingsley urged everyone to back him up. “What scam did he pull on you? Love or money?” Shaun quipped, tickled pink.

“D*mn it! You’re both on the same side! The former, okay?” Kingsley was downright indignant.

Jonathan’s lips inexorably twitched. “Can you please mind your words, Kingsley? I’ve never done anything of that sort! I’m straight!”
