You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 573

“I'm not sleeping unless I get to sleep with Mommy!”

Jesse raised her adorable voice even more when she saw no response from Benjamin.

He let out a sigh and gave in at last. “Fine, we'll all sleep together!”

The kids are still little, and this place is a new environment for them. I suppose having them all sleep together will make looking after them easier...

“Thank you, Mr. Graham!” Jesse said with a smile.

“Call me 'Daddy!'“ Benjamin said.

Jesse's face was all red as she covered her mouth and shook her head.

Benjamin didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw how adorable she looked.

Being the more authoritative one of the brothers, Zachary spoke up. “You'll have to up your game if you want us to call you 'Daddy!'“

Benjamin smiled and patted him on the head. “In this case, do keep a close eye on my performance and let me know if I need any improvements!”

Zachary's eyes went wide when he saw how easy-going Benjamin had become.

“For now, you need to stop following us and go take a shower! We can wait for Mommy on our own!” Gavin reminded him with a stern face.

“All right, you kids go wait for your mommy in bed. She takes rather long showers, so she won't be done so soon. I'll go take a shower myself now,” Benjamin instructed.

The six kids had always felt more relaxed without him around, so they were delighted when he agreed to leave them alone.

Upon seeing the kids happily climb into bed, Benjamin shook his head with a smile and went off to take a shower in the bathroom outside.

Arissa's heart was instantly filled with joy when she came out of the shower and saw the kids lying in bed.

“You kids want to sleep with me tonight?”

“Yeah! Hurry up, Mommy! We're getting sleepy here!” Jesse replied.

“Mr. Graham gave us permission to sleep with you tonight!” Jasper added.

“Mr. Graham was going to have us sleep in our room at first, but Jesse took care of the problem with her charm!” Oliver said.

Zachary chuckled. “Pfft! Jesse didn't use her charm! She was just trying to sound fierce, that's all! I bet Mr. Graham gave in to her cuteness instead!”

“We're sleeping with Mommy regardless of whether Daddy allows it!” Gavin chimed in as well.

Tim snickered silently from the side.

“Now, now... Time for bed, kids! Have you all drank your milk?” Arissa asked with a smile.

“Yes, Mommy! Yours is outside!” Jasper replied.

“I'll go get it for you, Ms. York!”

Tim then hopped off the bed and ran outside to fetch it.

Arissa had a huge smile on her face as she sat down beside the bed.

“We've already explained the situation to Tim, Mommy! He doesn't blame you for what happened!” Oliver told her.

Arissa's eyes lit up when she heard that. “Really?”

Jasper nodded profusely as he crawled over. “Yeah! Tim said it himself that he doesn't blame you at all!”

Would be nice if Tim could call me “Mommy” too... Arissa thought to herself with a chuckle.

“Tim may not call you 'Mommy,' but I think he has already accepted you as his mommy!” Zachary comforted her.

“Just give him some more time, Mommy! I'm sure he'll call you 'Mommy' soon!” Gavin added.

He too, used to think Arissa didn't want him at first.

It wasn't until after he found out the truth about what happened to her that he stopped blaming her.

Jesse was about to say something as well, but Arissa quickly stopped her with a shushing motion as she heard footsteps outside.

“Stop talking, kids! Hurry up and lie down!”

Gavin and Zachary exchanged glances before quickly lying down in their respective corners of the bed.

Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse too, snuggled up beside them.

“Take off your glasses, Oliver!” Arissa reminded him.

“Okay, Mommy!”

Oliver then sat up straight and placed his glasses on the nightstand.

Tim soon came into the room with a glass of milk in hand. Arissa swiftly made her way over and took the glass from him before leading him toward the bed.

“Come on, Sweetheart. It's time for bed!”
