Chapter 300 Why Are You Nervous
Suddenly, they heard a commotion downstairs. When Benjamin realized who had arrived, he furrowed
his brows for a fleeting moment before regaining his composure.
Following behind him, Arissa heard it too.
Thus, she asked curiously, “Who is it?”
Is it a good idea for me to go down? It sounds like an elder of the family.
Chuckling at her question, Benjamin turned around to look at her.
When her eyes met Benjamin’s mischievous gaze, Arissa blinked before glaring back at him.
“What is it?”
“Old Mr. Graham is here!”
When Benjamin saw the shock on her face, he stared at her with a knowing smile.
“In that case, is it appropriate for me to go down?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy is his father here? Arissa grew anxious for no reason.
“Why are you feeling nervous? It’s not like you’re going to meet your in-laws,” Benjamin teased.
Arissa glared at him. “Do you really not mind that I go down with you?”
Benjamin snorted lightly. “Why? Are you afraid of meeting my dad? Are you feeling self-conscious
still?”
“I’m not!”
Arissa was perplexed. There’s nothing for me to feel self-conscious about. I’m just worried that Old Mr.
Graham gets the wrong idea.
Nonetheless, it didn’t matter if she did as she was now together with Benjamin.
Letting out a gentle snort, she walked past him and headed downstairs.
Meanwhile, Darius was having a good time surrounded by the children.
After all, they were delighted to see him.
“Grandpa, why didn’t you tell us you were coming?” Oliver asked with a smile.
“If I told you in advance, would you still be at home waiting for me?”
Beaming at the five children, Darius was filled with elation.
When he heard that they had returned quietly, he was slightly disappointed.
However, after learning that Benjamin and Arissa were home, he decided to visit them unannounced.
“We will! We welcome you to play with us anytime.”
Jesse looked at Darius and giggled gleefully.
Given that Darius loved girls, his heart was warmed by how cute she was.
He bent down and picked Jesse up.
Pinching her nose affectionately, he asked, “Is your mommy at home?”
Jesse nodded. “She is. She went to get Daddy for dinner.”
Darius nodded. The thought of being able to meet his future daughter-in-law simply delighted him.
“Grandpa, when you see Mommy later, remember not to look too stern. Or else, you’ll end up scaring
her,” Gavin reminded with concern.
Darius was nonplussed. “Do I look strict like that?”
Looking at him, Gavin tried to hide his laughter.
Instead, Zachary replied, “This is all right.”
“Grandpa, are you actually here to see Mommy?” Jasper eyed Darius suspiciously.
Darius burst into hearty laughter and stoke his head. “Since your mommy isn’t free to come to my
place, I came over to visit her instead. After all, I’ve all the time in the world.”

you.”
“Oh? Why is that?” Darius was intrigued.
Kingsley, who was lying back on the sofa, interrupted, “Obviously, it’s just like an ugly daughter-in-law
meeting the parents!”
“Mr. Watts, Mommy isn’t ugly at all!” Jesse retorted as she glared at Kingsley.
“You’re the one that’s ugly!”
When the other four children stared daggers at him. He quickly raised his hands to surrender.
“It’s just something people say. I don’t really mean that your mommy is ugly.”
The quintuplets snorted angrily at him again.
Amused, Darius pacified them, “Given how cute all of you are, there’s no way she can be ugly.”
The children nodded in unison. “Mommy is the prettiest lady in the world!”
No son would ever think their mother ugly.
Darius narrowed his gaze. They are such filial children.
Even though Kingsley was rendered speechless, he couldn’t deny how pretty Arissa was.
As for Arissa, she was equally stumped. The moment she arrived downstairs, she was embarrassed by
the children’s praise for her.
