Chapter 55 Their Side Profiles Resemble Each Other

For a while, Benjamin gazed in the direction of the departing car before he turned to enter the house.

He then instructed Edwin, “Ask Ethen to come over.”

“Yes!” Immediately, Edwin made a call to Ethen.

Meanwhile, Benjamin went into his son’s room.

Seeing him approach, the boy hurriedly hid his phone.

Benjamin narrowed his eyes upon noticing that. “What are you hiding?”

Feeling guilty, Jasper’s heartbeat quickened as he glimpsed at the domineering man. “I’m not hiding anything!”

Benjamin cast a glance at his son before sitting on the bed. “Come here.”

Jasper peered at the man cautiously before walking over slowly.

As he stood a few steps away, he stared warily at Benjamin. “Are you angry with me?”

Jasper became nervous when he saw Benjamin’s solemn expression.

Hearing that, Benjamin’s gaze became fixated on his son. “You like that woman a lot, don’t you?”

That woman? Jasper frowned slightly before realizing Benjamin was referring to Arissa.

“Yes, I do!” he replied.

“Why?” Benjamin stared straight at his son. He actually likes Arissa more than Danna?

“It’s because she has Mommy’s scent!” Jasper dipped his head at the end of his words.

That answer caused Benjamin to pause for a moment with a dazed look on his face.

He had also smelled a familiar scent on that woman. “How do you know it was your mommy’s scent on her? You were still very small when you came back to me. How could you possibly remember at that age?”

Jasper pouted as he raised his head. “I just knew it. She definitely is my mommy. That Danna is a fake! Ms. York is not like Danna. She treats me really well.”

Benjamin let out a snort when he heard that. “How can you say she’s treating you well when you’ve only been with her for a short time?”

“I just knew it. If you really want a wife, I’d rather you marry Ms. York. She definitely won’t hate me the way Danna does!”

At that point, Benjamin patted his son’s head. “You should take a shower now.”

Narrowing his eyes, Jasper probed, “Daddy, are you also suspecting that Danna is not my mommy? I don’t resemble her at all. I look more like Ms. York.”

Benjamin frowned. Really? Why didn’t I notice that they look alike?

“That’s enough. Go shower now,” he ordered as he stood up.

With that, Jasper stuck out his tongue as he turned and ran into the bathroom.

Benjamin remained still for a moment before turning to leave. When he spotted Edwin, who was busy with work, he asked the latter to come over. “What’s your impression of Arissa York?”

“Ms. York?” Glancing at Benjamin, Edwin knew how concerned his boss was about the personalities of those who mingled with Gavin. “I would say she’s easy-going and kind. She also treats Gavin with patience. She’s very gentle and even pampers him. At times, it feels as if…”

Edwin paused to look at the man before him, unsure if he should proceed further.

In return, Benjamin shot him a glance. “Feels like what?”

“At times, it feels as if Ms. York is Gavin’s mother!” Edwin had no choice but to continue, “When the two of them are together, their side profiles have a slight resemblance! If one examines closely, they actually look alike.”

“You may have seen it wrongly.” With that, Benjamin headed toward his study.

Edwin sighed as he looked at Benjamin.

It would be wonderful if Ms. York is Gavin’s biological mother. She certainly treats him thousands of times better than Danna.

It was almost eight o’clock when Arissa reached the entrance of the neighborhood.

There, she requested the bodyguard to stop the car. “Thank you!”

After that, she bought some food before rushing back home.

The four little ones must be starving by now.

With that thought in mind, she began to run. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

By the time she reached home, she heard the sound of laughter and excitement at the entrance.

Feeling stunned, she opened the door. When she saw a familiar figure playing a game with the four kids, she smiled. “Bradley, you’re here!”

“Boss!” Bradley turned to greet her.

“Mommy!” The four kids rushed over to help her with the things in her hands.

“I’m so sorry. You all must be starving, right?” Arissa felt bad and hugged each of the kids.

“We’re not hungry. Mr. Hinton bought us some tasty snacks,” Zachary replied with a smile.

Arissa closed the door and changed her shoes. “When did you come over, Bradley?”
