You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 I Do Not Have A Daddy

Flustered, Zachary quickly went into hiding in a corner with his siblings. However, Jesse tripped and fell on the way.

They wanted to help her up instinctively, but Ethen’s approaching footstep forced them back inside.

Seeing Jesse falling over, Arissa hurried to help her up while dusting off the dirt on her dress.

“Did you get hurt?”

“Nope!” Jesse replied nervously while stealing glances at Ethen.

Did I just ruin Mommy’s job, by any chance? What if her boss resents the fact that she has a child and fires her?

Arissa pinched her daughter’s little face.

“Hello there, Ms. York!”

“Oh, hello, Mr. Frank! What brings you here?” Arissa got up to her feet and greeted back casually. She acted as she had just seen him coming by.

“We just happened to pass by and see you here. Mr. Graham hopes to have a talk with you.”

Jesse batted her eyelashes while staring at Ethen. Phew! Luckily he is not Mommy’s boss.

Ethen noticed that the adorable little girl standing beside Arissa had such exquisite features that she looked like a pretty doll.

“Is this your daughter, Ms. York?” asked Ethen with a smile.

“Ah, yes! She’s my daughter,” Arissa replied. Ethen knows that I have a child. It does not harm to admit it.

“Hello, sir!” Jesse greeted with a smiley face. Her bright eyes and dimples resembled Arissa.

Instantly, Ethen was charmed by the little girl’s cuteness.

“Oh, what an adorable girl!” He could not help but reach out to ruffle her hair.

The sight made Arissa break into a smile. She noticed that Benjamin had opened the door and was about to get out of the car.

Thus, she left Jesse to Ethen and went to greet Benjamin.

“Hello, little girl. I’m Ethen. What’s your name?” Ethen kneeled and teased Jesse.

“I’m Jesse!” replied Jesse with a broad smile. As she grinned, she revealed the empty space in her mouth that her front teeth used to stay.
