Arissa felt awkward because she had misunderstood him, but she apologized magnanimously, “I'm sorry for misunderstanding you!”

Benjamin raised his brows and decided to tease her. “What's the matter? Am I that violent?”

“No,” Arissa murmured. Well, he looks like a man who would hit his kids. Not only does he expect a lot from the kids, but he also said he was going to punish them. I couldn't help but overthink!
