The More the Merrier novel Chapter 1107

Chapter 1107 I Cannot Help Myself

“Daddy!”

When Gavin saw Benjamin, he ran up to him with his siblings following behind.

The sight of the children covered in sweat elicited a frown from Benjamin.

“Come here. I'll wipe off your sweat for you.”

However, the children continued to stare at him, and it was Gavin who posed the question in the end.

“Daddy, what is Julian doing in our home?”

The expression on Benjamin's face eased when he met his son's gaze. He tousled the latter's hair as he replied, “He's here to beg for mercy.”

The six children heaved a sigh of relief upon realizing that he wasn't there to cause trouble.

Sweeping his gaze across their faces, Benjamin curled his lips slightly as he asked, “Are you worried about me?”

“Of course not!” Zachary harrumphed in denial despite how obvious his concern was.

With his eyes glistening in amusement, Benjamin wiped their sweat away for them.

“Drink some water. I'm going up to see your mommy.”

With that, he headed upstairs with the children looking on at his leaving silhouette.

When Ethen saw how cute the children looked together, he teased them for a while before leading them away to play.

Arissa was still awake as she waited for Benjamin to come back. At the sight of him, she hurriedly asked, “Who was it?”

Benjamin replied flatly, “Julian.”

Arissa briefly froze before she recalled who he was. “What is he doing here?”

“He wants me to let them go.” Benjamin settled down on the couch and continued his work.

When Arissa observed that he didn't seem bothered, she let out a sigh of relief.

It wasn't until it was close to lunchtime that Benjamin finished his work. After putting his documents away, he walked to her bedside.

“Let's head down.”

“Are you done with your work?” Arissa couldn't stand it any longer. She could barely sleep and was sick of surfing on her phone.

As the playing children's voices could be heard occasionally, she had long wanted to join them downstairs.
