Chapter 56 Jasper Has A Mole
“I arrived at about six o’clock. When I called Zachary and found out that you’d gone to Benjamin
Graham’s house, I knew you’d be home late. So, I bought some food and came over.”
Bradley got up and followed Arissa to the kitchen. “Boss, when you were there, did you…”
Instantly, she gave him a signal with her eyes. “We’ll talk about it later!”
He responded with a nod. “Let me help you.”
“Thanks!” She smiled.
When she scanned around, she noticed the kids had actually cooked pasta.
The four kids ran in to help prepare the other dishes.
“Mommy, have you taken your dinner?” Gavin turned around and asked.
“Yes. I ate there before coming home.” Arissa smiled apologetically at the kids.
“Mommy, what does Benjamin Graham’s house look like?” Oliver asked curiously.
As Arissa looked into his twinkling eyes, she patted him gently on the head. “Well, it’s huge and very
luxurious.”

With a smile on her face, she headed toward the sink to wash the pots and pans she needed to prepare
dinner.
Just then, Zachary tapped on his younger brother’s head. “What’s there to see?”
“Well, I’m just curious.” Oliver pursed his lips while rubbing his head.
Bradley laughed as he watched the two boys’ interaction. “I can show all of you a mansion if you want.”
Hearing that, Arissa teased, “Are you going to buy a mansion?”
“Boss, don’t make fun of me. If you’re not going to buy one, why should I buy a mansion?”
She burst into laughter. “You’re not like me. I’ve four kids to raise.”
At that moment, Gavin walked over to Oliver and whispered, “If you really want to see the house, you
can use my identity to go back there tomorrow.”
Instantly, Oliver’s eyes lit up. “Would this work?”
Gavin replied with a nod.
I’m sure this will work out. Until now, Daddy didn’t realize who Jasper is. Moreover, Jasper has a mole on
his arm, while I don’t have one. In order not to blow our cover, we just need to draw a fake mole at the
same spot.
Upon seeing that response, Oliver snickered with excitement.
Zachary twitched his mouth slightly as he shot a look at his brothers before tapping their heads. “Don’t
do anything reckless!”
Oliver merely responded with a grin.
As for Gavin, he only glanced at Zachary and remained in silence. He did not want his mother or Bradley
to overhear their plan.
While the kids helped set up in the dining room, Arissa quickly cooked two dishes and reheated the food
she had bought.
“Everyone, dinner’s ready. Go and wash your hands!” She announced while bringing out the dishes
moments later. “Bradley, come and dine with the kids.”
“Sure!” Bradley immediately took the four kids to wash their hands.
“Aren’t you going to eat, Mommy?” Jesse asked from her seat.
At that moment, Arissa was filling their plates with pasta. “No. I’ve taken dinner before coming home.”
Nevertheless, she joined them at the table and continued to top up their plates with other food. “All of
you, please eat more.”
“Thank you, Boss!” Bradley was extremely delighted. “Your cooking is still so delicious. I’m not used to
eating outside food ever since I first tasted it.”
Arissa chuckled when she heard that. “These aren’t my cooking. I bought these from the shop outside.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore praising someone, it was best to look and consider the situation carefully beforehand.
Immediately after, a sheepish smile tugged at Bradley’s lips.
All four kids grinned broadly as they glanced toward Bradley.
“This dish is so tasty, Mommy!” Gavin had taken quite a lot of spinach.
Feeling proud, Arissa added some more to his plate. “Eat more if you like it. I’m sorry I got back late. All
of you must have been starving.”
“We’re not hungry, Mommy. We ate some bread earlier. Mr. Hinton also bought a lot of food for us.”
Zachary replied while stuffing his mouth with food.
“Eat slower. Don’t rush!” As she gazed at the four kids, Arissa thought about the boy at Yaleview and
sighed.
Instantly, everyone at the table turned to look at her.
“What’s wrong, Mommy?” asked Oliver.
Gavin then added with a deep frown on his face, “Is something bothering you, Mommy?”
Hearing that, Arissa ran her fingers over Gavin’s hair. “It’s nothing. I just feel blessed to see all of you
eating dinner.”
Her answer rendered the four kids speechless.
Bradley, on the other hand, was pondering. Could it be that Boss didn’t find anything at Benjamin
Graham’s house?
Worried that her mood might affect them eating dinner, Arissa excused herself to clean up the kitchen.
