The More the Merrier

Chapter 780 Their Pride

Zachary shared Jesse’s pride as he declared, “We won first place today! All the other kids were so envious!” His eyes positively sparkled as he spoke. Arissa shared Benjamin’s surprise as she asked, “All of you won first place?”

“Yeah!” The children nodded fervently. “We won prizes too, Mommy!” Jesse hurriedly grabbed her bag and took out the certificate she got from the teacher, along with a red flower and some sweets.

“Oh, Sweethearts, you were all amazing!” Thrilled, Arissa even planted a kiss on Jesse’s cheek. Gavin immediately credited Arissa for their win. “Mommy’s the amazing one. Everyone in the class was blown away when they saw our artwork, not just the teacher.”

He really enjoyed the feeling of being praised by their teacher in public. That was also the first time Tim had been praised by a teacher, and he was naturally excited.

Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper could not help but become infected by their two elder brothers’ joy. Of course, Jesse was the happiest of all since all her brothers had given her their sweets. She announced, “Mommy, I have so many sweets in my bag. Gavin and the others gave them to me.”

Arissa stroked her daughter’s head tenderly and asked, “If your brothers gave all their sweets to you, then won’t they have none left for themselves? You shouldn’t eat too many sweets too. Your teeth are developing!”

Then, she looked at her three youngest sons and chided them, “Didn’t I tell you before? Why did you still give Jesse so many sweets?”

Jasper smiled cheekily and said, “Mommy, we just gave Jesse the sweets to make Jesse happy. We didn’t let Jesse eat them!”

“Don’t worry, Mommy! We’ve been keeping a close eye on Jesse!” added Oliver with a smile. “Jesse promised us that Jesse wouldn’t eat them.”
