Chapter 876 Tim Called Her Mommy Jonathan was touched, but he found it hilarious as well. He grinned and replied, âThatâs so sweet of you. Thank you.â
âYouâre welcome,â replied Gavin while smiling.
When Jonathan saw how bright the kidâs smile was, his grin widened. âYouâre so cute when you smile, Gavin. You should smile more.â
Gavin put his smile away immediately and looked as serious as Benjamin.
All the other kids turned to look at Gavin. They also thought that he looked good when he smiled.
âYour smile is stunning, Gavin,â said Jesse while smiling brightly.
âThank you for saying that, Jesse,â replied Gavin. He instinctively smiled once more.
Jesse responded by grinning like a love-sick puppy.
Arissa turned her attention to the kids, and when she saw they all had smiles, she couldnât help doing the same.
âWhat do you kids want to eat? Iâll get it for you.â
âThank you, Mommy, but our plates are still full,â said all six kids simultaneously.
Arissa felt her eyes turning warm with tears as Tim had called her âMommyâ as well. He had spoken softly, but she had still caught it anyway.
Gavin was excited, too. He turned his attention to Tim and asked, âTim, did you just say âMommy?ââ
Zachary had heard what Tim said as well. The former grinned at the latter. âYou called her âMommy!ââ
Tim blushed for a moment.
âMommy, did you hear that? Tim called you âMommyâ earlier!â exclaimed Zachary in a bid to share the good news with Arissa.
Arissa smiled and nodded. Her eyes shone with love as her gaze fell on the kids. âI heard that.â
Tim snuck a peek at Arissa but quickly tilted his gaze down shyly.
âOof, you are really terrible at this, Boss, and Arissa has you beat. Tim has already started calling her âMommy.â When will we ever hear the kids call you âDaddy?ââ said Kingsley before guffawing.
âYouâll have to work harder, buddy,â teased Shaun, who was grinning at Benjamin as well.
Jonathan smiled and turned his attention to the kids. Curious, he asked, âWhy wonât you kids call him âDaddy?ââ
âBecause he failed,â replied Jasper right away.
Arching his brow, Jonathan pressed on, âFailed? At what?â
After that, Jonathan turned to Benjamin and asked, âBenjamin, do you know what they are talking about?â
âYeah,â replied Benjamin calmly. He grabbed a few bites and drank with the guys again.
âI guess it all boils down to whether Boss can love Arissa enough. If he canât, heâll never be the official daddy,â teased Kingsley.
Benjamin scowled at him.
âEither drink up or shut up!â
âIâll drink. Hey, can someone get us more wine? Weâre running low here.â
Kingsley was quick to get the server to bring them more wine. After that, the former continued drinking away with Benjamin.
Arissa ignored the men since they were having fun. She focused on getting the kids to eat right instead.
All six kids copied the men when they saw how the men were clinking their glasses before they drank.
âMommy, letâs clink our glasses, too!â offered Oliver.
Arissa couldnât help smiling at that.
âOkay.â
She grabbed her glass of juice and clinked her glass with the kidsâ.
âLetâs drink up!â
The kids couldnât help giggling at Arissaâs words.

Arissa reminded, âOkay. Well, donât drink too much juice, all right? Drink more soup. Itâs healthier.â
âOkay, then weâll drink our soup as though itâs wine! Cheers, Mommy!â
Zachary picked up his bowl and toasted Arissa before downing everything.
âSlow down! Be careful so you donât accidentally choke,â reminded Arissa while smiling.
âMommy, I finished my soup,â said Zachary proudly.
The other kids followed suit and drank their soup with Arissa in place of wine.
âWait, are you only going to drink with Arissa? What about your daddy?â asked Shaun.
âBut heâs drinking with you and the others, right?â
Zacharyâs grin was so big that his eyes could barely be seen. âAre you drunk, Mr. Bailey? Your face is all red.â
Kingsley laughed aloud and glanced at Shaun.
âI think Mr. Bailey is about to pass out drunk.â
âOh, shut up. I can drink more than you at least,â replied Shaun. A short while later, he said, âI need to use the restroom.â
âYouâre not going to try to make yourself throw up, are you?â teased Kingsley.
