The More the Merrier Chapter 617

Jesse Fell Off The Bed

Benjamin’s eyes snapped open as he observed his surroundings. His guard was up. However, he didn’t discover anything out of the ordinary.

He was about to go back to bed when a loud wail pierced the air.

“Mommy!”

Arissa woke up instantly and scrambled out of bed. She didn’t even realize she had to crawl over Benjamin to leave the bed.

She went in the direction of the wails immediately.

“Sweetheart, don’t cry. I’m right here,” she coaxed patiently.

Afraid she’d stumble, Benjamin switched on the lights hurriedly.

Arissa spotted her daughter wailing her heart out on the ground and picked her up.

“What happened? Hush, Sweetheart.”

“Mommy…” Jesse burped pitifully and complained, “Mommy, I fell off the bed!”

Stunned, Arissa checked Jesse hastily to find if the latter was injured.

“Did you injure yourself? Show me!” she urged.

Jesse shook her head. “My butt hurts!” she sniffled.
