You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1308 I Am Sorry

Arissa glanced at the time and realized it was getting late, so she instructed Benjamin, “Take them home!”

Benjamin glanced at her and said, “I'll have Miguel take them home!”

Arissa glared at him, throwing his own words back at him. “Didn't you just say you'd take them home yourself? Why are you going back on your word now? Hurry up and take them home. Don't bother coming back.”

Benjamin opened his mouth in surprise, wondering what he had done to upset her again.

“You're not letting me come anymore?” Benjamin sounded a bit aggrieved.

Arissa looked at him, a hint of amusement in her eyes. “Can't you spend one night at home with them?”

Arissa could go home to rest the next day if her check-up turned out fine.

“I can't sleep without you!” grumbled Benjamin.

A sweet feeling blossomed in Arissa's heart. She bashfully glared at him, unashamed, even in front of the children.

The six little ones chuckled, showing their understanding. “Mommy, we should go back by ourselves. Otherwise, Mr. Graham will have to come all the way from home.”

“Decide whatever you want. I don't care anymore!” Arissa said, leaving them behind without a care for

how they would return.

Benjamin looked at her puffed-up face, gently pinched it, and with a soft, teasing smile, he suggested, “How about I take you home now?”

“Sure!” Arissa's eyes lit up. She turned to look at him, her arms wide open, asking for a hug.

Benjamin was amused. He affectionately rubbed her nose. “Just wait patiently. I'll be right back after I drop off the kids!”

“Benjamin, you don't keep your word!” Arissa said, feeling frustrated.

“I was just joking with you. Behave yourself!” Benjamin coaxed her like a child, causing Arissa's cheeks to turn red.

“Bye, Mommy!” The little ones looked at her, waving their hands, and then followed Benjamin back.

Looking at the quiet room, Arissa frowned, her thoughts unknown.

After a while, she made a call to Bradley.

Benjamin personally sent the children home. However, this time around, the bodyguard was driving while he sat in the back seat with the little ones.

“Daddy, I'm sorry!” Gavin mumbled, apologizing to Benjamin once again.

“Mr. Graham, I'm sorry. We shouldn't have offered you the drink!”

One after another, Zachary, Time, Oliver, and Jasper apologized to him. Jesse glanced at him and also whispered an apology.

“Mr. Graham, I'm sorry!”

“All right. As long as you admit your mistakes, it's fine.” Benjamin glanced at them. “I don't blame you.”

The last time he punished them, he was indeed somewhat in the wrong, and their resentment was justified.

The little ones looked at him, asking softly, “Do you really not blame us?”

Benjamin raised an eyebrow, his voice deep as he asked, “Is there something you need?”

The six little ones chuckled, then immediately shook their heads.

After a while, Jasper couldn't help but say, “Mr. Graham, how about we treat you to some late-night snacks?”

He thought Benjamin would be famished after going to the restroom.

A grimace flashed across Benjamin's face, a hint of annoyance visible. I had diarrhea after drinking the drink they offered me. If it were to happen again, I would probably end up on an IV drip.

“I'm not hungry. Are you guys hungry?”

He stared at them, retorting with a question.

He understood the children's intentions.

“Mr. Graham, I know you're afraid to eat, but we won't prank you anymore, really!” With an apologetic expression, Zachary understood why Benjamin had declined their kindness.

“That's right. We won't mess around anymore.” The others nodded in agreement, promising to behave.

Benjamin looked at their sincere apologies, lifted his wrist, and glanced at the time.

“It's getting late. Let's head home and have Edwin whip up some late-night snacks. By the time you're done with your baths, the food will be ready. This way, we won't waste any time!” Benjamin said.

The little ones thought about it and broke into smiles.

“Sure, let's have Mr. Whitley make something to eat!” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Mr. Graham, you should also take a bath at home before eating. After eating, you can go to the hospital to accompany Mommy!”

“Mr. Graham, you don't need to worry about us. We can take care of ourselves at home!”

Listening to the children's heartfelt words, Benjamin gently patted their heads. “Good!”
