You More Than Anything In The World Chapter 356

Crying While Having A Nightmare

Noticing that it was working, Arissa continued, “I’m serious, Benjamin. I’ll stay here with you instead of
keeping the kids’ company.”

She was unsure if he was mad about that, but she gave it a shot anyway.

“I don’t need you to keep me company!” Benjamin gave a snort, but his tone had eased up significantly.

Arissa found his prideful yet childish behavior rather amusing. At the same time, her heart softened.

“Well, I want to keep you company! Is that okay with you?” she asked with an endearing grin on her
face.

Benjamin’s eyes flickered once again. “Whatever, do as you wish!”

Arissa let out a chuckle but quickly held it back when she recalled her main priority.

“Now, take your medicine!” she said while holding a few pills up to his mouth.

The man cleared his throat to hide his awkwardness before taking the pills and stuffing them into his
mouth.

Arissa then grabbed a glass of water and fed it to him.

After swallowing those pills, he lay down to get some sleep.

Arissa felt her heart flutter a little as she stared at his back.

She then pulled the covers over his shoulder before going to sleep on the couch nearby.



Benjamin pricked up his ears to listen for signs of her leaving the room. When he did not hear the
sound of the door opening, he opened his eyes slightly to take a peek.

At the sight of her sleeping on the couch, a smile formed on his face.

Because it was very late at night, Arissa fell asleep shortly after lying down.

Benjamin got up and made his way toward her when he heard her slow, even breathing.

Well, I suppose she’s not so dense, after all!

He made that remark in his mind as he stood beside the couch and stared at her countenance while
she slept.

After watching her for a while, he saw Arissa nearly fall off the couch when she turned in her sleep.

Benjamin panicked and quickly tried to catch her, but that did not happen at all.

Instead, Arissa simply turned toward the other side and carried on sleeping.

At that sight, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up. That was when his gaze fell upon her plump
bottom.

He swallowed nervously to soothe his dry throat as he stared at Arissa, who was still fast asleep.



“Mmm…”

Arissa moved slightly in her sleep, causing her pajamas to ride up, which exposed a small part of her
slender waist.



The gorgeous curve of her waistline ignited the flames of lust within Benjamin.

This woman is definitely seducing me!

That thought caused him to let out a soft snort. Then, he covered her waist and bottom with a blanket
before returning to bed.

Arissa, you heartless woman… How dare you sleep so soundly when you know that I’m sick? Benjamin
grumbled in his mind as he stole one final glance at her.

With that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, he was jolted awake by the sounds of Arissa sobbing helplessly and
miserably.

“No… Don’t take my kids away…”

The look on Benjamin’s face changed when he heard her cry, and he quickly rushed to her side.

Arissa’s face was covered in tears as she continued sobbing in her sleep, still deep in her dream.

“No… Give me back my kids… Don’t take them away…”

Benjamin reached out to hold her hands when he saw her waving both of her arms frantically.

Thinking it was the person who took her children, Arissa tightened her grip on his hand and dug her
nails into his skin.

He paid no heed to the pain and called out to her, “Arissa! Arissa!”

Arissa was dreaming about the day Danna took her children away from her.



She reached out to snatch them back from Danna, but she could not seem to reach them no matter
how hard she tried.

Trapped in a chasm of helplessness, Arissa continued to sob, “My kids… Give them back… You guys
are all bad people…”

It pained Benjamin deeply to see her wailing so sorrowfully, so he raised his voice. “Wake up, Arissa!”

Arissa heard a gentle voice coming from a distance, which slowly became clearer.

“Wake up! Wake up, Arissa!”

Benjamin gently patted her on the cheek while pinching her nose from time to time.

Eventually, Arissa opened her teary eyes and stared blankly at the handsome face in front of her.

Still overwhelmed by the grief of losing her children, she did not know whether she was awake or still
dreaming.

As her heart continued to ache badly, tears flowed across her cheeks and into her ears.
