Chapter 361 Daddy Apologizes
At the same time, the five little ones emerged from their room carrying their school bags.
“Mommy, are you ready? We’re all ready!” Gavin said smilingly, looking at Arissa.
“Yup, I’m ready too. Let’s head downstairs for breakfast!”
Arissa smiled affectionately.
“Mommy, are you still feeling unwell?” Zachary looked up at his mother and asked.
“I’m fine now!” Arissa replied while stroking her son’s head.
Oliver and Jasper also observed their mommy for a while and noticed that she was indeed looking better than
earlier on.
“Mommy, why did you suddenly have a fever last night?”
Arissa raised her brows when she heard that. In fact, she did not know the reason as well and wondered if it was
because of the nightmare she had.
“Mommy, are you going to work today?”
Jesse scrunched her brows, worried for her mommy’s health.
“Mommy, since you were unwell last night, you shouldn’t go to work today!” Zachary glanced at Benjamin while

talking to Arissa.
When Benjamin met his son’s eyes, he arched his brows.
Gavin glared at his father as well and said, “I’m sure it’s because he made Mommy work overtime last night.
Mommy must have fallen sick because she was overworked!”
“It has got nothing to do with your daddy!”
Arissa explained to the boy, worried that the tension between the father and son would worsen.
“He gave me a day off today so I don’t have to go to work!”
“Really?” Oliver asked, his eyes widening behind his glasses.
“Yup!” Arissa nodded.
“That’s more like it!” Jasper said, sneaking a glance at Benjamin.
The man was amused, seeing that the children were all on Arissa’s side and treating him like their enemy.
“Sorry, kids. It’s Daddy’s fault for not taking good care of Mommy.”
“What’s the use of an apology?” Gavin dissed.
“Just stop ordering my mommy to do anything!”
Benjamin was speechless as he stared at his domineering young son, who bore a stark resemblance to himself.

Arissa looked at Benjamin in amusement before hurrying the kids along.
“Sweethearts, let’s head downstairs for breakfast.”
“OK!” the five little ones answered and ran downstairs.
A moment later, Jesse turned back and pulled Arissa along.
The woman chuckled and called out, “Be careful. Don’t run!”
“Mommy, hurry up!”
“OK! I’m coming!” Arissa laughed.
Benjamin, who was trailing behind the woman and the kids, took a few large strides and caught up with Jesse
before picking the girl up.
Jesse’s bright round eyes widened as she stared at her father in shock.
Benjamin’s heart melted when he saw that.
Pinching the girl’s nose dotingly, the man said, “Daddy will carry you downstairs.”
Jesse blinked a few times before turning her head to look the other way.
Letting out a snort, the girl said, “I can walk downstairs myself. I don’t want you to carry me!”
Faced with the prideful little girl, Benjamin sighed, realizing that the children were still very upset with him.
Sensing Benjamin’s questioning gaze, Arissa pretended not to see it and took Jesse from his arms.
“Mommy will carry you!”

An adorable smile appeared on the girl’s face immediately as she replied, “Yay! OK!”
Benjamin could not help but feel a tinge of jealousy when he saw how happy his daughter was. In fact, the children
were always all smiles in the presence of Arissa.
“Mommy, you’re so slow!”
The four boys, who had already reached the bottom of the staircase, were looking up at Arissa, urging her to hurry
up.
“OK!” Arissa smiled and walked downstairs.
The four little fellas glanced at Benjamin and snorted in unison.
The man looked at his sons and said, “Put down your bags and have breakfast!”
When Arissa reached the first floor, Gavin reached out, offering to take his sister’s school bag.
“Mommy, pass me Jesse’s bag. I’ll go put it down!”
Arissa removed her daughter’s bag and passed it to her son.
“Mommy, wait for us!” Zachary reminded before the four boys ran off to the living room to put their bags down.
Arissa, who was carrying Jesse, stepped aside while waiting for the boys, with Benjamin waiting next to her.
“Good morning, Mr. Graham and Ms. York. Breakfast is ready,” Edwin informed as he walked over.
Benjamin nodded and replied, “All right. We’ll head over for breakfast now.”
