Chapter 744 Not Supposed To Eat Snacks In Class
After a short chat with Robert, Arissa led the children and left with Benjamin to visit Mary at the hospital.
“Sweethearts, how was school today?” Arissa hugged the six kids tightly and gazed at them tenderly as she
concernedly asked.
“Yes, Mommy. We have been paying attention in class the whole afternoon!” Zachary reported. “Tim was especially
serious!” Gavin chuckled.
Going to school was a first for Tim, and despite being clueless about almost everything, he was the most serious
among the six of them.
“So, what did you learn in school, Tim?” Arissa smiled at the boy. “We had a math class today. The teacher taught
us about numbers,” Tim answered in a small voice.
“Mommy, Tim is very clever. He understands everything the teacher taught us!” Jasper chirped. “I can recognize a
few of them before this!”
Tim had learned how to calculate money when he went to work with the other kids in the village. Hence, it was little
wonder he could pick up numbers easily.

“You can do it, Tim! I’m sure you’ll be more impressive than us in the future!” Oliver clenched his fists and
encouraged his brother. Tim bobbed his head.
“You’ll surely be amazing, Tim. Read the numbers aloud to me when we get home!” Arissa adoringly caressed the
boy’s head. “Okay!” Tim agreed and gradually broke the ice with Arissa after some interactions.
The woman bent over and gave the boy a peck on his head. Suddenly, Jesse let out a sigh. “I’m the stupidest
among all!”
“No, you aren’t. I can teach you if there’s anything you don’t know.” Gavin hugged Jesse as he reassured her. A
smile crept up on Arissa’s face as she watched their interaction.
“You’re just lazy!” She pinched Jesse’s nose. The young girl was indeed not as clever as her brothers, but her
intelligence was comparable to other children her age.
“She even sneakily tried to eat something in class!” Zachary giggled. Arissa was surprised to hear that. “Jesse, you
shouldn’t do that. Your actions will affect other kids in class.”
“I didn’t let the other kids see me doing that, Mommy.” Jesse let out a mischievous laugh. “If you want to eat
something, you can only do that during breaks. You aren’t supposed to eat any snacks other than water in class,”
Benjamin reminded.
Upon seeing her father’s stern expression, Jesse murmured, “I only ate a bun. A bun isn’t a snack!”
While Benjamin was at a loss for words because of the young girl’s response, Arissa was already chuckling away.
“That’s indeed not a snack. But eating during classes is not the right thing to do. Even though the teacher didn’t
point it out, that doesn’t mean you can do that. You have to change that habit,” she explained to Jesse.
The young girl glanced at Arissa, then shifted her gaze to Benjamin, who was wearing a solemn expression.
Seeing that, Jesse bit her lips and nodded. “Mommy, I got it.” “Good girl!” Arissa patted Jesse’s head. “Mommy, they
gave me yummy snacks too!” The young girl clung to Arissa’s arm as she shared her joy with her mother.
“Did you share with them then?” Arissa tenderly queried. Jesse’s hair bounced about as she bobbed her head,
rendering her absolutely adorable.
“Yes!” the young girl shouted. Arissa smiled and caressed Jesse’s soft and tiny face.

Jesse stared at her mother and beamed. “No more, Mommy! We finished everything!”
“We still have some cookies left just now, Mommy. But we finished them. Are you hungry?” Gavin fixed his gaze on
Arissa.
She curled her lips. Well, she was honestly a little hungry.
“I’m fine.”
“But Mommy, I’m hungry!” Jasper touched his belly.
Arissa affectionately stroked his nose. “We’ll see if there’s any kiosk nearby when we arrive at the hospital. I’ll get
some buns for you all.”
“Awesome!” The children were ecstatic.
“I wonder if Great-grandaunt misses us? We should buy more and share some with her!”
“Sure!” Arissa replied gently.
That made the six children squeal in excitement.
It was then Arissa realized that Benjamin had been quiet throughout. Directing her gaze at the man, she saw him
holding onto a tablet in his hand, busy dealing with work matters.
At once, she turned back to the children and signaled them to lower their voices.
