Chapter 1107 I Cannot Help Myself

“Daddy!”

When Gavin saw Benjamin, he ran up to him with his siblings following behind.

The sight of the children covered in sweat elicited a frown from Benjamin.

“Come here. I'll wipe off your sweat for you.”

However, the children continued to stare at him, and it was Gavin who posed the question

in the end.

“Daddy, what is Julian doing in our home?”

The expression on Benjamin's face eased when he met his son's gaze. He tousled the

latter's hair as he replied, “He's here to beg for mercy.”

The six children heaved a sigh of relief upon realizing that he wasn't there to cause

trouble.

Sweeping his gaze across their faces, Benjamin curled his lips slightly as he asked, “Are

you worried about me?”

“Of course not!” Zachary harrumphed in denial despite how obvious his concern was.

With his eyes glistening in amusement, Benjamin wiped their sweat away for them.

“Drink some water. I'm going up to see your mommy.”

With that, he headed upstairs with the children looking on at his leaving silhouette.

When Ethen saw how cute the children looked together, he teased them for a while before

leading them away to play.

Arissa was still awake as she waited for Benjamin to come back. At the sight of him, she

hurriedly asked, “Who was it?”

Benjamin replied flatly, “Julian.”

Arissa briefly froze before she recalled who he was. “What is he doing here?”

“He wants me to let them go.” Benjamin settled down on the couch and continued his

work.

When Arissa observed that he didn't seem bothered, she let out a sigh of relief.

It wasn't until it was close to lunchtime that Benjamin finished his work. After putting his

documents away, he walked to her bedside.

“Let's head down.”

“Are you done with your work?” Arissa couldn't stand it any longer. She could barely sleep

and was sick of surfing on her phone.

As the playing children's voices could be heard occasionally, she had long wanted to join

them downstairs.

“Mmm-hmm.” Benjamin handed her a jacket before carrying her down.

With her hands wrapped around his neck, her face glowed as she asked, “Am I too heavy

for you to carry?”

Benjamin lowered his eyes and gazed deeply into her. “Not at all.”

Arissa didn't believe him. I weigh at least a hundred pounds for goodness sake.

“I can still carry you even if you weigh two hundred pounds.” Benjamin's lips curled as if

he could read her mind.

As she stared at him with her glistening eyes, Arissa teased, “Can you really carry me if

I'm that heavy?”

“You can give it a try!” Benjamin responded with a mischievous smile.

The corners of Arissa's mouth twitched. “Why should I?”

I would look terrible if I were that fat. Besides, it would be really difficult to lose weight.

Chuckling softly, Benjamin pinched her at the waist. “Don't you know that I'm really

strong?”

Arissa replied coyly, “I know you're strong. Carry me all you want!”

The mesmerizing look on her face caused Benjamin's eyes to glisten as he leaned in to

kiss her.

Eyes widened, Arissa stared at Benjamin's handsome face until the latter's lips parted

from hers.

“We're at the staircase...” she reprimanded softly.

Benjamin burst out in laughter. “I can't help myself. You're simply irresistible!”

Rendered speechless, Arissa could feel her cheeks burn as she buried her head in his

arms.

When Benjamin arrived downstairs with Arissa in his arms, the children stopped playing

and gathered around their parents.

“Mommy, there you are!”

“Mmm-hmm,” Arissa acknowledged the children as the sight of them brought a sparkle to

her eyes.

“What are you playing?”

“Hehe, Mommy, Mr. Frank is playing a game with us.” Jesse beamed in delight.

“Mommy, we were just playing hide and seek!” Tim was equally elated.

Arissa broke into a wide smile when she saw how much they were enjoying themselves.

“In that case, you should continue playing, while I'll watch from the side.”
