You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Chapter 1097 Am I That Violent

“You thought?” Benjamin chuckled and squeezed her cheeks. “I swear I've never hit him!”

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!

Benjamin narrowed his eyes and leaned toward her. “Am I violent?”

Arissa's heart skipped a beat, and she was blushing when he suddenly leaned toward her.

“You're not!” she replied sheepishly before sneaking a peek at him. Does this man know he's wiping me down? Why is he taking his sweet time?

Benjamin flashed a faint smile and continued wiping her down hurriedly. “With you keeping a close eye on them, I'll have trouble punishing them. I won't expect too much from Jesse, but my expectations for the boys are high!”

Arissa bit her lower lip and reminded, “If you keep this up, Zachary and the others will have a problem with you.”
