You More Than Anything In The World
Chapter 831

The smile in Benjamin's eyes deepened.

Placing his lips beside Arissa's ear, he queried softly in a suggestive tone, "How did I seduce you?"

Arissa felt her ear going numb. Gah! His voice is lethally dulcet!

Shifting away slightly, she retorted with a low harrumph, "Do you really not know the answer to that, Mr. Graham?"

Benjamin's gaze darkened. At the sight of her huffy expression, the curve of his lips became increasingly distinct.

"Haha! We now know why you both got married!" Jasper's voice rang out all of a sudden.

He was staring up at them, having eavesdropped for an indeterminate time.

The other five children likewise wore enlightened expressions on their faces.

Embarrassment inundated Arissa, and she glared at the man beside her.

He did it on purpose, didn't he, causing me to forget that the kids were right next to us?

Benjamin quirked an eyebrow. He remained as calm as ever.

"How did you seduce Mommy, Daddy?"

Gavin stared at the man solemnly as he demanded an answer.

"I was just wondering why Mommy suddenly married you, Mr. Graham. It turned out that you seduced her!"

Curling his lips, Zachary teased Benjamin.

Benjamin's lips twitched imperceptibly. "We seduced each other."

"Hehe! Why didn't you say that you love each other?" Oliver quipped as well.

"You're right! We love each other!" Benjamin echoed his son's words solemnly.

All six children gaped at him incredulously. How could he utter such a remark calmly? He must have truly fallen for Mommy!

They were all over the moon.

Taken aback, Arissa goggled at the man.

"Mommy, Mr. Graham said that the two of you love each other!"

Jesse pinned her eyes on Arissa, beaming from ear to ear.

In turn, Arissa flashed her a smile.

"Shouldn't you all be addressing me as 'Daddy' starting today?"

Benjamin's eyes were fixated on the six children; his voice threaded with a hint of negotiation.

Tim, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and the rest looked at each other.

Tim wasn't addressing him as "Daddy" because he wasn't accustomed to it yet, but Zachary and the others were testing him.

"Although you've married Mommy and are our daddy, your subsequent performance will decide whether you pass!"

Zachary regarded the man shrewdly, not easily duped at all.

Benjamin eyed his arrogant son in chagrin.

I've got to have a good chat with them. Otherwise, if they instigate Arissa one day, they might all take off on me again.

At the sight of his dejected look, Arissa chortled.

"Let's go and have breakfast, Sweethearts!"

She urged the children to go into the house, for she had to rush to the hospital later after dropping them off at school.

All six children goped ot him incredulously. How could he utter such o remork colmly? He must hove truly follen for Mommy!

They were oll over the moon.

Token obock, Arisso goggled ot the mon.

"Mommy, Mr. Grohom soid thot the two of you love eoch other!"

Jesse pinned her eyes on Arisso, beoming from eor to eor.

In turn, Arisso floshed her o smile.

"Shouldn't you oll be oddressing me os 'Doddy' storting todoy?"

Benjomin's eyes were fixoted on the six children; his voice threoded with o hint of negotiotion.

Tim, Zochory, Oliver, Josper, ond the rest looked ot eoch other.

Tim wosn't oddressing him os "Doddy" becouse he wosn't occustomed to it yet, but Zochory ond the others were testing him.

"Although you've morried Mommy ond ore our doddy, your subsequent performonce will decide whether you poss!"

Zochory regorded the mon shrewdly, not eosily duped ot oll.

Benjomin eyed his orrogont son in chogrin.

I've got to hove o good chot with them. Otherwise, if they instigote Arisso one doy, they might oll toke off on me ogoin.

At the sight of his dejected look, Arisso chortled.

"Let's go ond hove breokfost, Sweetheorts!"

She urged the children to go into the house, for she hod to rush to the hospitol loter ofter dropping them off ot school.

"Okay!" the children answered.

"Give them to me," Benjamin prompted.

Gavin and Zachary quickly returned the marriage certificates to their father.

Benjamin put them away in his pocket, treasuring them greatly.

Arissa cast a glance at him. "Let's go and have breakfast!"

Benjamin nodded. "Take them to the dining room first. I'll join you all in a while."

Then, he headed toward the study.

Arissa watched him for a bit before leading the children to the dining room.

"Congratulations on your marriage, Mrs. Graham!"

Grinning widely, Edwin offered his felicitations to Arissa.

Arissa nodded with a smile. "Thank you!"

"Hurry up and have breakfast, Mrs. Graham. Otherwise, it won't taste as good anymore when it's cold later," Edwin urged.

He went over, carrying the children and placing them onto the chairs.

Arissa did the same before she took a seat herself.

When she saw that Benjamin was still not there yet, her curiosity was piqued.

Why did he go to the study? Don't tell me it was to store the marriage certificates?

Indeed, she hit the nail on the head.

Verily, Benjamin went to the study to store the marriage certificates. To top it off, he kept them in the most hidden spot in the safe.

Only after locking them up did he leave the study.
