Chapter 783 He Kissed Mommy

“Once we get home, I still have to do some cleaning around the house, don’t I?” Arissa replied. She didn’t want to tell her son the truth about her working overtime, lest he storm off to reprimand his father again.

Benjamin, however, had his doubts and gave her the side-eye. My goodness. Has she really taken work home with her?

“Mommy, we have Mr. Whitley to help keep the house pick and span, so there’s no need for you to do anything else. Just spend time with us and have a good rest,” Gavin insisted, not wanting his mother to tire herself out.

After a while, Arissa finally gave in to her son and nodded. “Very well, then. I shall do just that!” Upon hearing that, Gavin beamed with joy.

As Arissa smiled and gazed at her six children, she couldn’t help but pull them all in for a hug and kiss. “Tell me, my sweethearts, what did you all learn today?”

The six children began sharing everything they had done in school that day. Arissa listened attentively, complimenting them when they did something good and correcting them when they made mistakes.

Even though Benjamin said nothing as he checked his emails and listened in on their conversation, that moment undoubtedly brought him a great sense of fulfillment.

As soon as they got home, the six children eagerly pulled Arissa out of the car. “Be careful!” the latter chided while trotting behind her little ones.

When the six children entered the house and saw Darius, their eyes immediately lit up. “Grandpa!”

Arissa flinched. Huh? Old Mr. Graham’s here?
