Chapter 768 I Brought Gifts For All Of You
After showering and getting changed, Benjamin walked out of the bedroom and headed to the children’s room. The
kids were already awake.
“Daddy!” Gavin exclaimed, staring at him in surprise. The others also turned to him with similar expressions. “Mr.
Graham!” Benjamin murmured an acknowledgment.
After sweeping his gaze over the little ones, he called Ethen on the phone and asked the latter to bring up the things
he had prepared. Gavin’s eyes gleamed briefly when he heard that. “Did you go on a business trip?”
Benjamin nodded. “Mm-hmm.”
“Where and when did you go, Daddy? You didn’t come home last night. I thought you were at the office.” Gavin
rarely asked so many questions.
Patting the boy’s head fondly, Benjamin replied, “I went to Xenhall yesterday morning and only just got back.” Gavin
was understanding, and he forgave him for not coming home the previous night.
Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, Jesse, and Tim looked at Benjamin. They also understood that he did not return home
because he had gone on a business trip. Just then, Ethen came upstairs with a pile of presents in his arms.

“Mr. Graham.” “Place them over there,” Benjamin instructed, telling Ethen to set the presents down gently.
“I brought gifts for all of you!”
Ecstatic, the six children rushed to open their presents while Benjamin sat and watched them. His thin lips curved
upward into a smile when he saw how happy they were.
“Wow! It’s beautiful!”
“This is nice too!” There were six model airplanes of various colors, and they could even be flown in the air using
remote controls. Oliver and Jasper were already flying their model airplanes while Zachary taught Tim how to use
the remote control.
As Gavin and Jesse were figuring out how to operate theirs, the latter remarked with a sigh, “If only it were pink.”

Ethen smiled. He had suggested that to Benjamin when they were buying the toys. However, the latter had
immediately tossed aside the pink one.
As soon as Benjamin heard what Jesse said, he knitted his brows. “Boys who like pink will get laughed at by the
other kids, Jesse.” This kid likes pink too much. I need to correct that.
Jesse bit her lip and muttered, “Let them laugh, then. I like pink!”
Benjamin frowned. Ethen was aware that Jesse was a girl and knew it was not unusual for her to like that color. “Mr.
Graham, shall we change it to a pink one for Jesse?”
Benjamin glared at Ethen, and the latter dared not say anything more. “We can buy some pink paint. I’ll help you
change the color,” Gavin said, comforting his younger sister.
Her eyes brightened. “You can change it?”
“Sure. We can give it a new coat of paint and turn it pink!” Gavin responded with a grin.
“Awesome!” Overjoyed, Jesse began playing with her brothers.
Benjamin’s frown deepened.
“Gavin, come over here.”
The boy peeped at him, then walked over.
“What is it?”
“Boys should like colors that are appropriate for boys. Don’t indulge in your brother’s whims,” Benjamin

admonished Gavin.
Gavin looked up at him with a flicker in his eyes. “Daddy, Jesse is still little. It’ll be different once Jesse is older.”
Still furrowing his brows, Benjamin answered, “Interests and hobbies are nurtured from a young age. Do you want
to see him still liking pink when he’s older?”
Observing the stern look on his father’s face, Gavin sighed inwardly.
“All right. I’ll talk to Jesse.”
Benjamin nodded.
Just then, Arissa came upstairs to wake the children, only to find them already up and playing with their model
airplanes in the room. The atmosphere was very lively, and she saw that Benjamin and Ethen were also there.
Jesse ran up to Arissa to share her excitement. “Mommy, Mr. Graham bought us model airplanes!”
“Did you thank him?” Arissa asked as she smoothed the little girl’s hair.
Jesse was momentarily stunned, then she quickly turned to thank Benjamin.
“Thank you, Mr. Graham!”
Benjamin nodded in response while gazing fixedly at the woman at the door.
Moving out of his line of sight, she gestured to the children. “Sweethearts, do you want to go to the hospital to visit
Great-grandaunt?”
“Yes!”
The six children set aside the toys in their hands and dashed over to her.
