Chapter 716 It Was Given By Mommy

“Mommy, he wasted the eraser by rubbing it on the table!” Oliver said. Arissa was deeply amused. Still, she

distributed some stationery to each of them and reminded them, “If you have extras, you can share them with

Gavin and Tim.”

“I don’t need them. I still have a lot of these. I can share the other stationery I have with Tim, but not this set

because Mommy bought it for me!” Gavin uttered cheerfully.

Arissa could not help but feel touched. “Tim, this is for you!” Jesse handed her box of color pencils to Tim.

“I already have a box of color pencils,” Tim said sheepishly.

“You’ll use up them very quickly. So just take it. I still have plenty!” Jesse stuffed the box into Tim’s hands.

“Thank you, Jesse!”

Tim held the box of color pencils while gazing tenderly at his sister.

Jesse grinned.

Zachary gave Tim a lot of stationery as well. Arissa bought various writing materials for each of them, but Zachary

merely took two pencils.

“I already have—”

“Take them. I’ll use yours after I’m through with mine,” Zachary said with a smile.

Tim nodded. “Okay!”

Oliver and Jasper offered their new stationery to Tim as well. In a blink of an eye, Tim had so many writing

materials he could barely carry them with his arms.

Still, he held all the stationery steadily, feeling touched by his siblings’ gesture.

Oliver and Jasper chortled when they saw how Tim was struggling. Then, they helped carry some of the stationery

Tim was holding.

“We’ll help you carry them for now and give them to you when we’re back in the room later.”

Tim smiled in response.

Arissa felt content when she saw how the other kids cared for Tim.

Benjamin strode over when he realized all of them were still outside.

Noticing Arissa had handed out the stationery outside the house, he asked, “Why didn’t you wait until you’re inside

before you give them the gifts?”

She looked at him.

“They were impatient, so I figured I would distribute the stationery in advance.”

Then, she turned to Tim and said, “Tim, place the things in the shopping bag for now. I’ll bring them inside.”

Tim squeezed the present in his embrace and was reluctant to let it go.

“Put it in here. We’ll take the stationery out upstairs and arrange them into your bag,” Arissa coaxed him gently.

Zachary’s eyes gleamed. “Mommy, you bought a bag for Tim?”

Tim was staring at her with glistening eyes as well.

Arissa tousled Tim’s hair fondly and said to him, “Your daddy’s the one who bought the bag. I only purchased these

stationery.”

Tim gazed at Benjamin and said softly, “Thank you, Mr. Graham.”

Benjamin chuckled. “You’re welcome.”

Arissa turned to him. “Have Mr. Frank brought the bag over?”

He glanced at her. “I’ll ask him.”

Benjamin took out his phone and called Ethen. Coincidentally, Ethen arrived at the gates at that moment. The car

he was driving turned into the compound of the house.

A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes as he uttered, “He’s here.”

Arissa saw the lights from the car headlamp. She turned around and made sure it was indeed Ethen arriving before

saying happily to Tim, “Sweetheart, your bag will be here soon!”

“Okay!” Tim nodded.

His eyes followed Ethen’s car closely.

“Hehe, you’ll also have a bag now, Tim,” Gavin chirped while still holding on to his set of stationery.

“Hurry up and put the things into the bag. We’ll split the items when we’re back in the room later,” Arissa urged her

children.

Zachary placed the pencils into his pocket. “There’s no need to put mine into the bag.”

Oliver and Jasper placed the stationery they were holding into the shopping bag. Then, they took the writing

materials Tim was hugging and put them into the bag as well. “These are all Tim’s. There’s no need to split the

things later.”

“Jesse, let me help you,” Jasper said to Jesse.

“Thank you, Jasper.” Jesse was delighted.

Jasper received the items and passed a portion of the things to Oliver. “You take some too!”

Arissa found their interactions to be comical. “All right. You can carry those by yourselves.”

Benjamin swept his gaze over all his children. When he saw Gavin holding quite a few stationery, he uttered softly,

“Gavin, don’t you already have a lot of stationery? Let your brothers have those.”

Gavin glared at his father. “Mommy bought these for me.”

He was unwilling to give Arissa’s present away.

“I’ll buy more stationery for you if you like them,” Arissa told Gavin.

“Hehe. Thank you, Mommy!”

Gavin was delighted. He even sneakily shot Benjamin a dirty look, rendering the latter speechless.
