Chapter 996
“I'm just looking at my wife,” Benjamin replied.
His lips quirked into a smirk—a smirk so roguish that made her blush.
Arissa looked away and hastened to continue doing her makeup. She forced herself not to pay attention to the
man.
However, when she was drawing her eyeliner, a sudden knocking on the door startled her. Her hands trembled, and
she drew out of line.
“Oh no!”
Benjamin looked at her and asked, “What's the matter?”
He didn't notice the knocking on the door.
“My hands trembled, and now my eyeliner is out of line.”
Arissa was dejected. “Go and see who's at the door.”
She reckoned that it was her children.
Arissa was right. Their voices came through the door right then.
“Mommy, are you guys done?”
Benjamin got up and edged closer to Arissa. She turned around and said, “Hurry up and open the door. Don't let
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthem shout at the door anymore.”
“Let me help you clean that up.” Benjamin's thin lips curved upward.
Arissa darted away when Benjamin was already ready to wipe away the out-of-line eyeliner.
“You don't know how to do it right. I'll do it myself. Go and open the door.”
Benjamin furrowed his brows in response. Seeing as she was already working on it, he was left with no other choice
but to open the door for the kids.
His five sons had already changed into their suits, and they all matched Benjamin's.
Jesse's eyes gleamed at the handsome sight of Benjamin and her five brothers.
“Mr. Graham, you look quite handsome!” Jasper said. His eyes twinkled with a smile.
Benjamin arched his brow and eyed the children. “Are you guys ready?”
“Yes!” the six children hummed in unison.
Kingsley, Ethen, and Jack were still standing by the six children's bedroom door. They were amazed by Benjamin's
dashing look.
Even though they were quite good-looking themselves, they knew they were mere decoys standing by Benjamin's
side.
“Benjamin, you cut a dash today!”
Kingsley gave Benjamin a thumbs up.
Benjamin glanced at them and said, “Are you guys going over to Old Manor or taking a rest?”
“We're going to head to Old Manor,” Kingsley, Jack, and Ethen replied.
Benjamin nodded. “Head downstairs and wait for me first.”
Then, he turned around to walk back inside the room.
The six children trailed behind him. “Is Mommy ready?”
“She isn't ready yet. Why don't you guys go play aside?”
Meanwhile, Arissa was still trying to fix her eyeliner.
“Hehe. Mommy, you look so pretty. Your dress is exactly like mine!”
Jesse noticed the dress Arissa was wearing and beamed with delight. The little girl took a spin around her mother in
glee.
“Mommy is a big fairy, and you're a little fairy!” Jasper uttered.
Arissa couldn't help but grin.
Jesse was over the moon as well.
“Mommy is the prettiest girl I've ever seen,” Tim said in wonder.
Gavin nodded earnestly. “Me too. I've never seen a girl prettier than Mommy!”

“Of course. If Mommy's not pretty, how can we be so handsome?” Oliver retorted.
His eyes were gleaming with pride.
Amused, Zachary burst out laughing. “Mommy is a pretty lady! She's going to look great in anything!”
“Yes, yes. Mommy is a pretty lady,” Jasper agreed.
Arissa was elated by her children's compliments.
“All right. Please wait for me aside. I need some more time.”
Fixing an eyeliner was tedious.
Noticing that Arissa was still struggling with her eyeliner, Benjamin approached her and said, “Let me help you.”
He took over the tissue and lifted her chin.
Arissa's eyelashes fluttered. “Do you really know how to?” she asked anxiously.
“Well, it's still easier for me to help you.”
Benjamin cast a glance at her and immediately helped her clean up the mess.
Isn't it just cleaning up the messed-up line? Nothing difficult about that.
Benjamin carefully wiped away the error.
Their six children surrounded them and watched.
“Mommy, why did you draw out of line?”
Arissa's eyes were closed. “Your knocking startled me. My hands trembled, and I drew out of line.”
“Hahaha...” the six children giggled.
