Chapter 362 Tying A Tie For Benjamin

“Jesse, can I hold you?” Edwin asked, reaching out for the girl.

Jesse shook her head and dodged Edwin’s outstretched arms.

Arissa smiled in amusement and said to her daughter, “Mr. Whitley wants to hold you. Won’t you let him?”

“No! I want Mommy to hold me!”

Jesse wrapped her little arms around Arissa and pressed her face into her neck, inhaling her mother’s scent happily.

Benjamin frowned when he saw her blissful expression.

“Sweetheart, your mommy has been carrying you for a long time. Her arms are tired. Why don’t you walk on your own?” Benjamin said with a frown.

Jesse glanced at Benjamin and saw his serious expression. Guilt flooded into her little heart.

She whispered to Arissa, “Mommy, you can put me down now! I can walk!”
