You More Than Anything In The World

A glint flashed across Arissa's eyes, and she was so happy that the kids were gradually accepting Benjamin as their father. “That's why I said your daddy's words are always contradicting his feelings. He's just harsh with his words!”

“Does Daddy care about you more now, Mommy?” Gavin asked.

“Did you guys notice how Mr. Graham was staring at us when we were hugging Mommy? I bet he was jealous!” Jasper let out a laugh.

Arissa pinched Jasper's cheek gently and said, “I doubt he was jealous. However, he could be envious of how close you guys are with me.”

“If he isn't that stern all the time, we would be close to him as well!” Oliver complained.

Jesse nodded profusely and chimed in, “Mr. Graham can look really scary sometimes!”

Arissa was amused by the kids' complaints. I wonder how Benjamin would feel if he hears this.

No one knew how Benjamin would feel, but he wasn't pleased when he saw Arissa and the kids leaving without him.

Shaun glanced at Benjamin's long face and smiled. “Benjamin, since your car has left, perhaps you should just ride with me!”

“Get your car here, then!” Benjamin glared at him.

Shaun rubbed his nose before going to get his car hurriedly.

Ethen and Bradley could only ride with the bodyguards.

When Arissa and the kids arrived at the ward, Mary had just woken up.

She then helped Mary wash her face before getting her some food.

“Issa, you should bring them home and get some rest. You guys must be exhausted being here so early!” Mary was touched. Even family wouldn't be so caring!

“Once you're done eating, I'll go and get some rest in the room next door, okay?” Arissa proceeded to feed Mary some food.

Gavin and the rest were keeping Tim accompanied by playing with him nearby.

When Benjamin arrived, he nodded at Mary before asking Arissa, “Are you heading back?”

Arissa looked at him and answered, “I'm not going back. You should take the kids back, though.”

Benjamin knitted his brows in response. Seeing that Arissa was staying, he called out to Gavin and the others, “The six of you, follow me back to the hotel to rest. You guys can come over again in the afternoon.”

“We want to stay here with Mommy to keep Grandma company!” Jasper glanced at Benjamin.

The rest of the kids shot Benjamin a look as well because none of them wanted to leave.

“Sweethearts, go back and rest, okay? I can't look after all of you here. Go on,” Arissa said to the kids.

Gavin blinked and uttered, “Mommy, we can help you take care of Mdm. Mary. You don't have to look after us!”

“That's not necessary. Since you guys have gotten up so early this morning, please go back and rest, okay? When you guys wake up in the afternoon, you guys can come over to accompany Mdm. Mary!” Arissa put aside the bowl of food and went over to coax the kids.
