Swooning Over The Children
“I have some clothes in the car. I’ll just change into them,” Kingsley said, feeling hurt. Benjamin snorted
coldly while Arissa carried the children to the car’s backseat.
After stowing away the children’s schoolbags, Benjamin helped her with getting the kids into the car.
Then, he put on their seatbelts. “Go and sit in front,” he said to Arissa, making sure to check that the
children were seated properly before closing the car door.
Arissa turned to him and asked, “You’re driving?”
“Do you want to drive?” Benjamin raised his eyebrows with a hint of a devilish look in his eyes. “I don’t
mind,” Arissa replied eagerly.
“You’ll sit in the front passenger seat.”
With that, he opened the door to the front passenger seat and motioned for her to get in.
Arissa pursed her lips, then bent down and climbed into the car.
When she saw him moving to put on the seatbelt for her, she quickly grabbed it and buckled it herself.
Benjamin paused for a moment. Then, seeing that she had turned to talk to the children, he shut the
door and went to the driver’s seat.
“Is everyone in their seats? I’m going to start driving now.”
All six children glanced at him and chorused in unison, “Yes!”
They were very excited, since Benjamin seldom drove, and every now and then, they would sneak a
peek at him.
Benjamin caught sight of it through the rearview mirror, and his usually unsmiling lips curved slightly
upward.
Arissa also smiled when she saw them peeking at him.
“What’s so funny?” Benjamin asked, casting her a quick look.
Arissa was in high spirits and answered happily, “Oh, nothing!”
His smile grew wider. “Did you bring the things for Grandaunt?”
“Yes. I brought everything,” she answered with a nod.
With Edwin in charge of preparing the things, I don’t have to worry about a thing. Everything was
placed in the car in advance.
After murmuring an acknowledgment, Benjamin shifted his focus back to driving.
Arissa gazed at him for a while, then leaned back in her seat to rest.
The weather was exceptionally fair that day, and they drove out of Yaleview as the sun rose in the east.
Arissa happened to look at the rearview mirror and spotted a car behind them. “I think Mr. Watts is
behind us,” she told Benjamin.
“Yes,” Benjamin answered flatly.
As she gazed at his calm demeanor, she could not help thinking that he was just as cold and aloof to
his own friends.
Jasper was a chatterbox and could not bear the silence, so he blurted out, “Mommy, Daddy made Mr.
Watts run fifty laps as punishment!”
Arissa glanced at Benjamin with a smile, then turned to look at the six kids.
“Where did he run laps?”
“At our house!” Gavin revealed, snickering.
Arissa was momentarily stunned. She had been busy in the kitchen and attending to the children as
they ate that she had not noticed anything.
No wonder Kingsley was covered in sweat when I saw him earlier.
“Why did you punish Mr. Watts?” she enquired, feeling rather curious.
Benjamin looked up and glanced at Arissa through the rearview mirror.
“I did it because he deserved to be punished.”
The corners of Arissa’s lips twitched.
Then, she turned in her seat to ask the children, “Sweethearts, do you know the reason for the
punishment?”
The six of them shook their heads.
“We don’t know either, Mommy. Mr. Watts wouldn’t tell us.”
Arissa laughed. It must’ve been something mortifying if Kingsley was too embarrassed to talk about it.
“Sit properly,” Benjamin reminded gently, and she turned back to face the front.
Her eyes flicked toward the man driving with full concentration, then at the rearview mirror.
She could not refrain from beaming at the sight of the adorable children in the back, and a loving
expression spread across her face.
My precious children are so good-looking. They could be the face of anything!
Benjamin frowned when he noticed the besotted look in her eyes and snorted coldly.
Is she seriously swooning over the children right now? With a man like me sitting right next to her, why
doesn’t she look this way?
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at their destination.
Arissa hurried out of the car as soon as it rolled to a stop. Then, she opened the rear passenger door
and started carrying the children down from the vehicle.
Benjamin also alighted from the car and helped the three older children down before getting their
schoolbags.
Since the schoolbags all looked similar, he could not tell which one belonged to whom.
Gavin knew with just one glance that Benjamin did not remember, so he reached for his schoolbag and
slung it over his shoulders.
