He Did Not Even Propose
After steeling herself, Arissa nodded. “I do.”
“I’ve already asked around, and tomorrow seems perfect. Get ready to head to City Hall tomorrow. I’ve
already made the arrangements with the personnel there. You two can go there straight away!”
informed Darius cheerfully.
Arissa had no choice but to agree to it with a forced smile. Why didn’t Old Mr. Graham mention it when
Benjamin was still here? Has he told him already?
“Old Mr. Graham, did you tell Benjamin?” she asked.
Darius cleared his throat before answering, “I forgot just now, but I’ll tell him tonight.”
Upon hearing that, she breathed a sigh of relief, glad to know that she did not have to be the one to
bring up the matter.
“Do be mindful of the timing because the children have to pay respects to their ancestors next Friday,”
Darius pointed out, to which Arissa nodded as she had decided to let Benjamin handle the matter.
Like Tim, Gavin was thrilled when he heard Darius’ words.
However, Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper did not feel the same way. “Grandpa, Mommy can’t marry Mr.
Graham!”
Jesse quickly nodded to agree with her brothers.
Surprised to see how Zachary and the others reacted, Darius lowered himself before the kids before
inquiring, “Why is that?”
“Mr. Graham hasn’t passed our test yet, so he can’t be our daddy,” answered the children.
Amused, Darius chuckled. “It doesn’t matter because he is your father!”
“No, he isn’t. He has to pass first!” insisted Zachary in all seriousness, as stubborn as Gavin.
“I thought you agreed to be on our side.” The boy then turned to glare at Gavin.
“You have my support!” the latter responded.
At that point, Zachary was even more confident as he continued to speak with Darius. “He can only
marry Mommy if he passes. And there has to be a wedding, not just a marriage registration!”
Since they were all objecting to him, Darius knew there was no other way but to go along with his
grandchildren. “Okay. I’ll keep an eye on your daddy. I just want them to register their marriage first so
that it would be better for us to reveal you and the others’ identities to the public. As for the wedding,
we’ll prepare it for her.”
“No!” protested Zachary as he looked at Arissa. “Mr. Graham must prove himself if he wants to marry
Mommy. We’re not satisfied with him yet, so they can’t get married until he has our approval!”
“You better take us seriously, Grandpa, because we mean it. We’ve already talked to Mr. Graham about
this,” advised Oliver.
“He agreed with us. Nobody can force Mommy to marry anyone!” Jasper chimed in.
“You can’t talk to Grandpa like that!” Arissa chided the kids, for she knew Darius just wanted what was
best for the family and that he was not forcing her to do anything. “I agreed to marry your father.
Nobody forced me to do it.”
The kids were stunned when they heard her. “Mommy, you agreed to marry him?”
Faced with the children’s doubtful looks, Arissa nodded in response. “Yes, I did.”
However, the woman knew the answer was somewhat forced.
When she looked apologetically at Darius, he smiled warmly at her.
“It’s true that I agreed to marry him,” Arissa added seriously.
Immediately, Zachary questioned, “Does that mean Mr. Graham proposed to you?”
To answer the boy’s question, Arissa shook her head, which caused him to drop his jaw.
“Mr. Graham didn’t propose to you, yet you agreed to marry him? How did it happen?”
Darius felt guilty when he saw how embarrassed Arissa looked, so he decided to explain the situation
to the boy. “I talked to both of them yesterday and suggested that they get married so that you can all
reunite with the Graham family, and your mother agreed to do so.”
Zachary was not happy with what he had heard. “I don’t care about that, Grandpa. Do you think this is
going to make them happy? Mommy’s pride would be hurt since she agreed to marry Mr. Graham
when he didn’t even propose to her!”
Arissa stroked the boy’s head, signaling him to curb his anger through her gaze.
