The More the Merrier novel Chapter 724

Chapter 724 Being Wary Even At Home

Jesse finally woke up when she felt water touch her face, but the first thing she saw was Benjamin’s stern face right in front of her. The girl pouted as if she was about to cry.

“Am I being too rough?” Benjamin’s voice suddenly softened as he thought he had hurt Jesse with his rough movements. The boys gathered around at the bathroom door as they looked on.

To be honest, they were impressed that Benjamin managed to wake Jesse up by just uprooting her from the bed and washing her face.

“Jesse…” they comforted her. “Gavin!” Jesse’s mood was elevated when she saw all her brothers at the door.

“Come on. Mommy’s downstairs already,” Zachary quickly cut in. He really did not want her sister to start her day feeling upset.

“Where’s Mommy?” she asked.

“She’s making breakfast, so you’d better hurry up,” Zachary advised.

“Okay!”

Jesse nodded and then turned to look at Benjamin.

“Please let me down, Mr. Graham. I can brush my teeth myself,” she said timidly.

“Sure.”

Benjamin put her down and put some toothpaste on her toothbrush for her.

“You guys go get changed,” he said to the five boys.

The boys stared at both of them for a few seconds before they finally went off to get changed.

Benjamin stayed in the bathroom to keep Jesse company.

After Jesse brushed her teeth and washed up, she looked at Benjamin and said, “Mr. Graham, I want to pee…”

Benjamin sat her down, but the girl just did not seem comfortable.

“I thought you wanted to pee?” Benjamin was getting impatient after waiting for a while.

“Yeah… I want to, but could you go out?” Jesse replied weakly.

It was then that Benjamin realized her cheeks were red because she was shy.

“All right. Be quick,” he said.

He then closed the door behind him, but that was not enough for the girl.

She jumped down and went over to lock the door. I can’t let him know I’m a girl!

Benjamin scoffed in disbelief when he heard the door locked. Why is he being so wary even he’s at his own home?
