The More the Merrier novel Chapter 861

Chapter 861 Smoking Is Bad For Your Health

Gripping the children’s shoulders, Arissa scanned her eyes over them to ensure that all of them were there. Then, she uttered gently, “Let’s go in!”

“Come on!” Upon seeing that Shaun had also come over, Benjamin entered the restaurant with his arm still wrapped around her waist. “Fortunately, the traffic wasn’t that bad. Otherwise, we’d only be arriving a while later,” Shaun remarked with a smile.

Subsequently, he added, “Kingsley called several times to hurry me up. Did he not phone you?” He glanced at Benjamin. “He phoned me twice,” Benjamin replied placidly, his thin lips parting a smidge.

Arissa chortled. “Mr. Watts phoned twice, but he declined the first call. The second call came right on the heels of that.” Hearing that, Shaun guffawed before grumbling about Kingsley. “He must have had nothing better to do to keep calling this person and that!”

Suddenly, Benjamin halted in his tracks. He turned to the man. “Who else did he invite?”

“Just the few of us. Jonathan will be coming over in a bit!” Shaun eyed him dubiously. Nodding, Benjamin led Arissa and the children in.

The six children held hands. As they walked, Gavin explained the layout of the restaurant to Tim. “The public restroom is over there, Tim. But we probably won’t have any use for it. We’ll be eating in a private room, and it comes with an attached restroom.”

Tim had never been there, so his eyes roved around, following Gavin’s introduction. Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse had all been there once, but they were still exceedingly curious about the place and loved to look around.

Even Arissa couldn’t help scrutinizing the surrounding décor. The restaurant was quaint, seemingly transporting one back to ancient times. On top of that, all the servers wore gowns, making for a delightful sight.
