The More the Merrier novel Chapter 310

Chapter 310 Put Her Guard Up Against Him

Benjamin stared at Arissa and Jesse.

As she peeked out from her mother’s embrace and blinked at him, he thought Jesse resembled Arissa a lot.

“I don’t need your help. I can handle this myself. Please close the door!” Arissa urged him.

Benjamin furrowed his brows as he sensed she did not welcome him. Why do they all have their guard up against me?

Nonetheless, Benjamin still closed the door and went outside.

Arissa heaved a sigh of relief. She immediately loosened the blanket and continued to bathe Jesse.

Jesse stared at her mother closely and smiled.

“Mommy, Mr. Graham looked so upset!”

Arissa let out a chuckle as she flicked Jesse’s nose gently.

“Don’t bother with him. Let’s continue our bath!”

“Okay!”

As Jesse was playing in the water, she asked, “Mommy, who am I going to sleep with later? With the others or with you?”

“Who do you want to sleep together with?” Arissa displayed a smile.

“I want to sleep together with you. It’s been a few days!”

Jesse gave a toothy grin, looking very funny.

Arissa chuckled. “Okay, you can sleep with me. I miss sleeping together with you too!”

Benjamin overheard their conversation as he was standing outside. He felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

This is what a family feels like.

He stood there for a while before going downstairs.

After Arissa bathed Jesse and helped the latter put on her clothes, she came out of the room. Yet, she did not see Benjamin around.

“Mommy, I will go find the others!”

“Go ahead!”

Arissa cleaned up the bathroom and put the dirty clothes into the basket. Then, she went to the kids’ room.

The four older kids had already taken their baths and changed into clean clothes.

“Come over here, all of you. Let me dry your hair!”

She noticed their hair were all wet.

Arissa took the hairdryer, and the four kids sat obediently on the couch, letting her dry their hair.

“All right. Now please go to bed!” she reminded as she put away the hairdryer.
