Chapter 792 Do Not Make Trouble Here
Benjamin glanced at her and said, “Go get some rest. I’ll tutor them for a while longer.” Arissa nodded gratefully. “Okay, I’ll go sit down.”
Benjamin gave her a look before turning back to the children and continuing to explain to them. Arissa sat down by the side and quietly watched the father and children talk. Her heart melted at the sight.
“Do you all understand?” Benjamin asked, looking at the six children. “Yes, I understand, Mr. Graham!” Tim answered. He was the first of the boys to speak up. “Me too!” Gavin said with a big smile.
Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper nodded in unison and replied, “I understand, too.” The last to answer, Jesse glanced at her brothers and Benjamin before lowering her head shyly and mumbling, “I still don’t understand!”
Benjamin was surprised. He had thought that it would be Tim who would not understand, but it turned out that it was Jesse. Benjamin pulled Jesse into his lap and asked, “Tell me which part you don’t understand.”
Jesse’s cheeks turned bright red. She looked away from Benjamin and confessed, “You talk too fast!” Arissa could not help laughing at her answer. She didn’t understand a single word at all!
Benjamin looked straight into Jesse’s eyes and said, “Okay, I’ll speak slowly. I’ll start again from the beginning, okay?”
Jesse’s blush deepened when her brothers all started laughing at her. “Okay!” Arissa could not help giggling at the sight of her blushing daughter.
“Mommy, you’re not allowed to laugh at me!” Jesse pouted. Her big eyes were welling up with tears.
“Okay, okay! I’ll stop laughing. Don’t worry, Sweetheart. Just listen to your daddy. You can do this. I believe in you,” Arissa said, trying to cheer on her youngest daughter.
“Okay!” Jesse flashed her mother a bright smile, revealing her tiny teeth and pink gums. “Now, don’t you make trouble here!” Benjamin warned Arissa with a look.
Arissa shook her head and said nothing in reply to his threat.
Gavin, Tim, Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper burst out laughing.
Embarrassed, Arissa stood up and said, “Well, you continue tutoring them. I’m going to take a bath!”
Benjamin watched her walk away for a moment before turning his attention back to Jesse.
He explained again carefully and slowly to her.
Tim also sat nearby and listened while Gavin, Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper carried on with their own learning.
Arissa cast one final glance at them before heading upstairs.
