Chapter 766 Not Even After Midnight

“I think so,” Arissa said. I think so?



Gavin furrowed his brows, sensing something amiss. As the boy stared at Arissa, he wondered, Doesn’t Mommy

work with Daddy in the office? How can she not know if Daddy’s still in the office or not?

“Mommy, did you fight with Daddy?”

“I didn’t. Don’t worry.”

After ruffling the boy’s hair, Arissa took the children’s bags and placed them on the couch. “Sweethearts, did your

teacher give you any homework?”

“Yes, Mommy. Our teacher has given us homework,” Jesse quickly answered. “Wash your hands first. I’ll accompany

you to finish them now.”

“Okay!” Jesse bobbed her head. The five older children all glanced at Arissa before running off to wash their

hands. Edwin came out with washed fruits and asked, “Mrs. Graham, shall I prepare more food for you and the

kids?”

Arissa had told Edwin that they were eating at the hospital, so Edwin had brought them food as well when he

delivered food to Mary. “Edwin, it’s fine. If they get hungry later, I’ll make them some pasta,” Arissa replied.

Edwin nodded. “Mrs. Graham, feel free to ask anything from me.” “All right.” Arissa nodded. Edwin then left to look

at the children.

Gavin was leading his younger siblings to wash their hands before they run back to the living room. By then, Arissa

had cleaned up the coffee table. She was sitting on the carpet and waiting for them to return.

“Come over and start working on your homework.”



The six children sat down and took out their homework. “Mommy, the teacher said that we can work on different

kinds of homework.”

Arissa glanced at the topic before helping the children with their paper-cutting exercises. She made six different

patterns for them while they assisted her. Once in a while, Edwin would bring them food and drinks.

He was impressed by Arissa’s skillful cutting.

“Mrs. Graham, you’re amazing with your hands,” Edwin praised. “None of us knew how to do Gavin’s homework,

and Gavin stopped wanting to do it after a while.”

Arissa paused and raised her head. “Did Graham not help Gavin?”

“Mr. Graham is too busy for it.” Edwin sighed.

Gavin huffed. “Even if Daddy comes back early, he won’t do it with me. He thinks it’s childish!”

Arissa’s heart ached when she heard that, and she patted his head gently.

“I’ll do it with you from now on. It’ll be the same.”

“Okay!” Gavin smiled.

Arissa smiled in return and continued helping them out with their homework.

Zachary and Oliver had done many similar things before, but when they saw Gavin, Tim, Jasper, and Jesse working

seriously on their homework, they became excited too.

Not long after, the children completed their homework.

“Thank you, Mommy! You must be tired,” the children chorused, then came over to kiss her cheek, Tim included.

“No problems, Sweethearts!” Arissa hugged the children and gave them kisses on their foreheads. “Sweethearts,

it’s time to shower and go to bed.”

“Okay!”

The children packed their bags and rushed to the bathrooms.

Arissa glanced out the window before going upstairs.

The first thing she did was give Jesse a shower.

After stepping into the master bedroom, she packed her things and brought them to the guest room.

Once she was done with her shower, she went to the children’s room to tuck them in.

Even after they fell asleep, Benjamin did not return.

Is he keeping that woman company?

Arissa could not help but think about that man.

As she watched the sleeping children, a sigh escaped her lips.



The kids were just asking why he hadn’t come back. They still love their daddy. Should I ask him about it? What if

he’s enjoying his time with her? Won’t I be disturbing them in that case? Forget it.

Even when midnight came, even after Arissa fell asleep, Benjamin did not return.
