“What are you doing here?”
Arissa was surprised to see him around. She turned around
and looked at him. “I want to unpack my luggage!”
“Give yourself a break. Go and take a rest!” Benjamin said in a
deep voice.
Avrissa glanced at him. “I'm not tired.”
It won't take long anyway.
Benjamin shot a glance at her before leaving.
After watching him leave, she continued unpacking the
children's luggage.
The sextuplets' items had taken up the space of two adult
suitcases, even though each child might not have a lot of
things to bring along.
Meanwhile, Benjamin returned to the master bedroom and
noticed his suitcase was lying next to hers.
He then turned around and started hanging Arissa's clothes
piece by piece and arranged them nicely in the wardrobe.
He stored her brassieres and panties in the drawers.
After tidying up Arissa's clothes in the wardrobes, he looked at
them and knitted his brows.
Benjamin turned around and unlocked his suitcase. He took

He was delighted to see their clothes arranged alternately in
the wardrobe.
Arissa, who had just stepped out of the children's room,
bumped into him when he came out of the master bedroom.
Benjamin cast a brief look at her. “Go and take a rest. I'll be in
the study!”
Avrissa froze for a bit. “Aren't you going to
take a rest?”
Benjamin stopped walking. He tilted his head and gazed into
her eyes. “Do you want me to accompany you?”
Avrissa's lips twitched. That's just a casual question. What
makes you think | need your company?
“No.”
She turned around and went to the guest room but did not find
her suitcase.
Something seemed to have popped up in her mind, and she
went straight to Benjamin's room.
She was bewildered when she saw her clothes being hung
side by side with his in the wardrobe.
Awkwardness was written all over her face when she opened
the drawers and saw all her undergarments and sanitary pads.
Who did this? Edwin?
Or Benjamin?
Please don't tell me it's Benjamin.
Her cheeks remained brick-red for a moment.
“Why are you standing there? Shouldn't you go to bed?”
Arissa was startled by a deep voice that emerged from her
back.
She quickly slide the drawer in and glared at the man. “I didn't
do this!”
Benjamin stared at her. “I know.”
Arissa widened her eyes and blinked. He knows?
The uncomfortable look on the man's face .
left her even more flabbergasted.
He did it, didn't he?
Benjamin frowned when he saw how perplexed she looked.
Frustration kicked in, and Benjamin said in a deep voice, “Stop
standing there like a dummy. Come down with me to go
through the documents if you're not sleepy!”
Avrissa nodded. “I'm sleepy!”
She then left in haste.
“Where are you going? Come back and sleep here!” Benjamin

Avrissa shot him a glare. “Are you sure?”
Benjamin inched closer, forcing her to take a few steps back.
She eventually tripped and fell onto the bed.
Benjamin leaned forward and caged her with his arms.
Avrissa's heart started racing.
The man looked into her eyes and said in an authoritative
voice, “We've just welcomed Tim back to our family. Do you
want him to find out his mommy is not on good terms with his
daddy?”
Arissa gaped and said, “We were never close in the first
place!”
A hard glint flashed across Benjamin's narrowed eyes. “Do you
want him to know that we have an unusual relationship?”
The man's words rendered Arissa speechless. What unusual
relationship? He's my boss, and | work for him. That's all!
But she no longer dared question him upon seeing the sharp,
intimidating gaze in his eyes.
“What should we do then?” she asked him directly.
Benjamin arched his brow. “From now on, you'll have to sleep
in this room!”
Arissa swallowed the fluid lodged in her throat and sniggered.
“You want me to pretend to be your wife, Mr. Graham?”
