Chapter 218 Stay With Him
Only when Benjamin stepped on the ground did he let go of Arissa and walk toward the mansion.
Arissa did not dare to look at the bodyguards’ smiling faces. Lowering her head, she trotted after Benjamin.
Her entire face was flushed.
“Benjamin, are the kids and I going to stay here?”
Suddenly, he stopped dead in his tracks. Arissa, who was following behind him, did not see it and bumped into him.
“Ouch!” She covered her nose.
Whipping around, Benjamin stared at her intensely. A hint of unfathomable emotion flickered past his eyes.
“You’re just like a kid.”
Arissa was rendered speechless.
Just as she wanted to retort him, he beat her to it, “If you aren’t afraid of danger, you can leave Yaleview now!”
With that said, he turned around and entered the mansion.
Arissa pouted and hurriedly followed him inside.
How can I leave my kids here and go back with ease? No matter what, I must stay here with them.
“I think your house is safer!”
By staying there, she would not need to worry about food and accommodation. In fact, she could not think of any reason not to stay there.
Benjamin chuckled lightly at how fast she changed her mind.
Without saying anything, he went up the stairs, and she followed.
“Mr. Graham, the children have settled down.”
Behind Ethen were the bodyguards.
“Okay. Go and take a rest.” Having said that, Benjamin walked toward the children’s room.
“Goodbye, Ms. York.”
“See you,” Arissa hurriedly responded and went to the children’s room as well.
When she saw the quintuplets sleeping soundly on the bed, her heart melted into a puddle, and the corners of her lips curved into a smile.
Casting a brief look at her, Benjamin uttered, “Go and take a rest.”
“I want to stay here for a while.” Subsequently, she went to the bathroom, soaked a towel with water, and wiped the children down.
Benjamin reminded, “You’ll wake them up if you do this.”
“They won’t wake up.” As she spoke, she took off the kids’ trousers and let them sleep in their panties.
Seeing that, he stepped forward to help but was kicked by one of the children.
Arissa felt the urge to laugh when she saw his gloomy expression.
“I’ll do it. They love to move around when they sleep.”
Benjamin stood aside and watched begrudgingly as she took care of the children.
She swiftly took off their pants and covered them with blankets. Then, she placed the towel back in the bathroom.
When she came out, she saw Benjamin standing by the bed and staring at the children while deep in thought.
“Mr. Graham, I’ll go to sleep now.”
Yawning, she turned around and left the children’s room.
Immediately, Benjamin followed her out of the room. She could feel him getting closer, but when she whipped around, she saw him go into his bedroom.
She blinked, blushing a little at her wild imagination moments ago.
After taking a shower, she lay on the bed for quite some time but could not sleep.
Initially, she thought Benjamin would interrogate her, but unexpectedly, he did not.
Also, he seemed to genuinely care about the children. When she thought of the way he gazed at them earlier, a smile crept up on her face.
Aside from his relationship with Danna, everything about him seems good. Should I ride on his coattails?
The more she thought about it, the more she could not fall asleep.
In the end, she decided to get out of bed and leave her room.
As soon as she did so, she bumped into Benjamin, who also came out of his bedroom. Instantly, she felt a little awkward.
Instinctively, she tugged at her pajamas.
The next moment, she remembered that he once said he was not interested in her, so she tidied her pajamas and smiled brightly at him.
“Mr. Graham, haven’t you slept yet?”
Benjamin’s gaze fell upon her beautiful figure. Her delicate collarbones were attractive and seductive., giving him an urge to bite them.
Seeing that he did not speak, and there was a hint of lust in his eyes, she secretly gulped.
“I’m going to get some milk. Do you want some?” She rubbed her nose and broke the awkward silence.
“Mm,” he replied before entering the room and closing the door.
Dumbstruck, Arissa stared at the closed door for a while before heading downstairs.
Wasn’t he coming out of the room just now? Why did he go in again?
