Chapter 721 Sleep With Her In His Arms
“It’s a good day to bring Issa to go collect you guys’ marriage certificate tomorrow.” With that said, the old man
hung up. Benjamin frowned, looking at his phone. He put it down and then continued working all the way until
midnight.
It was not until Edwin came in and hurried him to bed that he went upstairs to shower. Upon entering the room,
Benjamin was perplexed when he saw that the bed was empty, so after showering, he went over to the children’s
bedroom to look for Arissa.
He frowned when he saw all of the children snuggling against Arissa.
When Benjamin realized that the children’s feet were sticking out under the blanket, he bent down to pull the
blanket over, but they kept kicking it aside.
After trying it twice, Benjamin gave up and just went back to his own room, but he just could not fall asleep.
He tossed and turn, and he even tried sleeping on Arissa’s pillow, but nothing worked. Before long, he sat up in
frustration and went over to the children’s room with his pillow.
After placing his pillow at the side of the bed, he gently moved the children inside and slept sideways on their bed.

When he saw Arissa sleeping soundly, he moved closer and hugged his children and her.
It was only then that he finally fell into slumber.
When morning came the next day, Arissa felt embarrassed when she woke up to Benjamin in the bed with her,
together with the children.
She tried moving aside, but Benjamin’s arms tightened around her.
From a close distance, she could see that Benjamin’s features were prominent. The set of brows on his face
complimented his face perfectly, and his nose bridge was straight and high. Everything about him was exquisite.
All of a sudden, her eyes met a pair of deep-set eyes, and her heart began to throb faster.
“Just a while more,” Benjamin mumbled as he planted a kiss on her forehead before falling asleep again.
Arissa blinked her eyes in surprise, her heart thumping.
Her heart raced as she looked at the sleeping man.
His loving kiss, coupled with his gentle tone, brought a smile to her face.
A sweet smile spread across her face. She took a long look at him before she gently moved his arm aside and got
out of bed.
“Where are you going? It’s still early.”
She turned around when she heard his voice, which was tinged with a hint of annoyance. Then, she was greeted by
his disgruntled face.
“I’m making breakfast!” she replied.
“There’s no need. Come back,” Benjamin said, displeased.
“You sleep. I’m not sleeping anymore,” she replied, getting out of bed.
This man is temperamental. He was gentle just a moment ago, and now he is losing his temper with me.
Since Arissa had gotten up, Benjamin could not sleep anymore, so he sat up as well.
When he saw that the children were still asleep, he put the blanket over them before going back to his own room.
Arissa was brushing her teeth when Benjamin arrived. He went into the bathroom and took up his toothbrush.
Arissa looked at him from the corner of her eyes.
“You’re not sleeping in?”
Benjamin glared at her through the mirror.
“Do you expect me to still be able to sleep after you left?”
Arissa was at a loss for words.
She gargled her mouth and spit out the water. “Well, me waking up has nothing to do with you sleeping in.”

“You already woke me up when you left. How am I supposed to sleep after that?” he muttered, brushing his teeth.
Arissa’s lips twitched, and she moved aside to wash her face. Fine. I’ll just let him be. He’s always so grumpy when
he wakes up.
With that thought in mind, she left to change and went downstairs to make breakfast.
Since the children were going to school that day, she decided to prepare more food for them so they could bring
some with them.
When Edwin woke up and saw that Arissa was already in the kitchen, he rushed over to help her.
“Mrs. Graham, I should be doing this!”
“It’s no big deal, Edwin. I’m making them breakfast,” she said with a smile.
Since Arissa insisted on doing it herself, Edwin looked around to see if there was anything he could do to help.
“Perhaps you can prepare breakfast for Mr. Graham too.”
“Oh,” Arissa replied shortly.
Edwin shot her a meaningful smile.
Not long after Arissa started busying herself in the kitchen, Benjamin came downstairs in his sports attire. When he
saw that Arissa was occupied, he went ahead for a morning jog.
