You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Chapter 297 Gavin Learns To Cook

“We can help you wash the steak and vegetables. In fact, we even know how to prepare the eggs!”

Just as Zachary spoke, he began to get his hands dirty.

As for the other four children, they too joined in to help.

Arissa was amused. “Be careful. Don’t cut yourself on the bone.”

After the steak was sliced, she proceeded to wash the chicken and cut it into small pieces.

“Mommy, isn’t it exhausting for you to prepare so many dishes alone?”

Watching Arissa, Gavin was astounded by her knife skills.

Arissa glanced at her son. “Not at all, they’re not difficult dishes to prepare anyway.”

“Mommy, if it’s too much for you, you can get Mr. Whitley to help,” Gavin suggested attentively.

“Hmm, but I have sent out him to buy roast chicken. Anyway, it’ll just take me an hour to do all this.”

“Mommy, do you want to cook the pasta now?” Oliver asked.

When Zachary was being squeezed by Jasper and Jesse, he decided to back away and let the three of them do it.
