Chapter 910 From Mansion to Thatched Cottage


    Ben looked at Joe with confusion, seemingly not understanding why the loaches


    could still escape from his palm even after he caught them.


    This was the first time Joe had seen Ben look so helpless.


    He chuckled and said to Ben, “Loaches have ayer of mucus on their body


    surface, which makes them very slippery. When you catch them, you have to


    rx your grip a little, making it easier to catch them.”


    “Oh! Ben’s helpless face is so cute! It’s touching my heart!”


    “Mr. Smith, don’t think I didn’t see youugh at Ben! Seeing your son so helpless,


    don’t you hurt?”


    “Group up to support Ben; anyone wants to join?”


    Under Joe’s guidance, Ben bit his lip and mustered the courage to try again.


    Unexpectedly, this time he managed to hold the loach securely in his hand and


    sessfully tossed it into the basket!


    “I caught it!” Ben eximed, his face flushed with excitement as he looked at Joe


    with sparkling eyes.


    Joe smiled gently and patted his hair.


    Seeing Ben so happy, Anna, who usually disliked getting dirty, became curious


    and turned her eyes toward Charlotte.


    “Do you want to go down too?” Charlotte looked at Anna. Anna eagerly shook


    Charlotte’s hand, and Charlotte had no choice but to put on little rain boots for


    her and strap on a small basket. Anna immediately dashed off.


    Jerome, seeing the rapidly increasing livements, was ted and wished he


    could consider the Smiths as financial gods.


    He knew that inviting the Smiths to this variety show was absolutely the smartest


    decision he had ever made.


    With the addition of Ben and Anna, they soon caught a basket full of loaches.


    Not to mention twenty, even one hundred would be enough.


    Jerome quickly approached Ben and Anna and announced, “This time, I dere


    Ben and Anna as the final winners. You can have the first pick at the room you


    want.”


    Charlotte and Joe breathed a sigh of relief; it looked like they wouldn’t have to


    switch rooms tonight.


    However, they soon realized they had breathed easy too soon.


    Who could have imagined that, after whispering together for a while, Ben and


    Anna chose the worst… thatched cottage.


    “Mom, we thought about it! This thatched cottage is so special! We both like it!”


    Anna spoke in a childlike voice to Charlotte.


    Charlotte looked at the ramshackle thatched cottage not far away and didn’t


    know whether tough or cry.


    It’s falling apart; how could it not be special?


    “So hrious! Miss Clinton probably never dreamed she would live in a thatched


    cottage.”


    “Ben and Anna aren’t wrong. A thatched cottage… isn’t it very special? So


    interesting.”


    “If Anna’s eyes weren’t so sincere, I would suspect she’s deliberately going


    against the grain.”


    Even though Charlotte was not pleased internally, she showed no signs of it on


    her face. Instead, she smiled gently at Anna, “As long as you both like it.”


    After all, they could switch rooms tomorrow. This would at least fulfill Ben and


    Anna’s wishes for now.


    After the room assignment was over, Joe carried the luggage, and they all


    walked to the front of the thatched cottage.


    Ben and Anna rushed inside, full of excitement. Charlotte, looking at the dusty


    door, walked in with resignation.


    Fortunately, Jerome was still a little considerate.


    Though the exterior of the thatched cottage looked run-down, the interior was


    rtively clean.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
