You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 1119

“Don't move!” Benjamin reprimanded softly, wrapping the coat tightly around her while keeping his grip on her.

Arissa stood speechless, her gaze shifting helplessly toward the children as she was enveloped by Benjamin's domineering presence.

Seeing the children having fun, she also chuckled.

Her delicate face brightened up, capturing Benjamin's attention. He looked at her intently and couldn't tear his gaze away.

Meanwhile, Darius and William, positioned under the eaves, delightedly observed the romantic and heartwarming scene unfolding before them.

“Old Mr. Graham, Mr. Graham seems more affectionate these days. Look at how much he cares for Mrs. Graham.”

Upon hearing William's comment, Darius found himself in high spirits and simpered.

“He still likes to pretend in front of me. Look, William. Look at him. Is he still as cold as he was before?”

Amused by his employer's words, William continued to tease Benjamin with Darius.

“Let's prepare some snacks for Issa!”

Darius glanced in their direction and flashed a smile. Then, he gestured for William to join him, and without hesitation, William followed suit.

Arissa leaned against Benjamin's frame, watching the children engrossed in their play nearby. A sense of tranquility washed over her.

Right then, Ethen came over to deliver a report to Benjamin. Upon reaching the garden, he noticed the couple sitting together, relishing the gentle evening breeze.

Ethen stood at the side and hesitated to interrupt this serene moment.

However, Arissa suddenly caught sight of Ethen and tugged at Benjamin's hem to remind him, “Ethen is here!”

Benjamin glanced in Ethen's direction, signaling the latter to approach.

Arissa gazed at the scene unfolding, a tinge of embarrassment washing over her as she found herself wrapped in Benjamin's embrace.

“Let me sit beside you.” She looked up at Benjamin and suggested.

Catching a glimpse of her blushing cheeks, Benjamin playfully teased her, “Are you feeling uncomfortable with me holding you?”

Arissa shot him a sidelong glance. “How can you discuss things properly while you're holding onto me? Put me down quickly!”

Benjamin smiled, then lifted her gently and settled her next to him. He carefully adjusted the hem of his clothes, creating a makeshift cushion for her to sit on.

As Ethen approached, he couldn't help but steal a few additional glances at Benjamin's considerate gesture.

“Mr. Graham, Mrs. Graham,” he greeted.

Arissa greeted Ethen with a smile. “Nice to see you here. Have you had dinner yet?”

“I've eaten,” Ethen respectfully replied.

“What brings you here?” Benjamin raised his gaze and cast a glance at Ethen, signaling him to speak.

As Ethen began reporting on work-related matters, Arissa grew bored, yearning to join the children. However, just as she attempted to rise, a certain somebody firmly grasped her wrist, preventing her from leaving.

“Where are you going?” Benjamin stared at her, not letting her go away.

Arissa, rendered speechless, whispered softly to the man holding her wrist, “I want to go and be with the children.”

“Stay right here!” Benjamin firmly clasped her hand to prevent her from leaving.

Ethen couldn't help but laugh as he witnessed Benjamin's assertive and commanding demeanor.

As Benjamin glared over, however, Ethen swiftly stifled the smile on his face.

“Continue!” Benjamin said in a deep voice.

As Ethen continued delivering the report to Benjamin and avoided any sidelong glances or distractions, Arissa resigned herself to sitting beside Benjamin, tuning out the conversation and instead diverting her attention toward watching the children.

After an undisclosed period of time, the man beside her abruptly issued an order to Ethen, saying, “And one more thing.”

“I'm listening, Mr. Graham.” Ethen listened carefully.

“I need you to conduct research on nannies, specifically those who have experience in raising and caring for children. Look for individuals with a gentle personality and good character,” Benjamin instructed his assistant.

“What are you looking for a nanny for?” Arissa turned to look at the man beside her.

Benjamin raised his hand and gently pinched her cheek. “To take care of you and the children.”

The corner of Arissa's mouth twitched. “Won't it be too early for that?”

She didn't need anyone to take care of her yet.

There were still several months left until the baby's due date.

“It's not too early. We can take our time to find someone suitable. Besides, we may not be able to find the right person now.”

Benjamin directed his gaze toward Ethen and stated firmly, “Let's proceed. Find a suitable candidate and present me with the information.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham!” Ethen nodded in acknowledgment and bid farewell to Arissa before taking his leave.
