Chapter 794 You Must Let Me Know Benjamin sighed and waved his hand, dismissing all of them. Arissa turned to her children with a smile and said, âSweethearts, go bring all your certificates and artwork. Weâll frame them up together!â
âOkay!â All of them were bouncing with excitement as they pulled out all their certificates and artwork. They followed Arissa out of the study. Benjamin watched them leave.
Then he stood up and followed them. âMommy, where are we hanging them?â Oliver glanced at the stairs. âHere or along the stairs?â
Arissa looked at the six children, then turned to Benjamin. Benjamin was standing behind them with his hands in his pockets. âLetâs put them up along the stairs.â
âYeah, letâs do that!â Arissa nodded in agreement. âCome on, Mommy! Letâs put them up!â Jasper was so excited that he was tip-toeing and even jumping up the wall.
âLetâs wait for Mr. Whitley to bring over the frames!â Arissa said to Jasper. Benjamin took the artwork from Timâs hands and looked at them with raised eyebrows. He was surprised.
He glanced at Arissa. âI didnât expect you to have quite the skills in arts.â
âOf course! I won plenty of prizes back in my days!â Arissa said proudly.
âWhat prize did you win?â Benjaminâs eye bore down on Arissa.
âI wasnât good enough; I won second place!â Arissa returned his gaze.
Benjamin chuckled at her answer.
âWhat are you laughing at? What did you win, then?â Arissa was a little annoyed.
âI didnât win anything, but isnât this too simple?â Benjamin said in a soft voice, looking down at the artwork he was holding in his hands.
Arissa was speechless.
âMs. York is amazing!â Tim said on Arissaâs behalf.
He glared at Benjamin.
Benjamin looked at his son. Then he looked at the name on the certificate. It was stated: Timothy Graham.
âYou should write this name on your schoolbooks.â
Tim nodded.
âI know, Mr. Graham.â
Benjamin tousled his hair and glanced around at the other children.
âLet me see all your artwork!â
Jasper and Oliver proudly showed off their artwork to him and praised Arissa, âIsnât our mommy amazing?â
âYes, she is!â Benjamin agreed as he took in their art.
âMr. Graham, look! This is mine!â Jesse shoved her artwork into Benjaminâs face.
Benjamin took it from her and looked at it carefully. It was very creative. All the childrenâs art was different, but they were beautifully done.
âWhat about you two?â
Benjamin turned to Gavin and Zachary.
Gavin smiled sheepishly and handed over his artwork. Benjamin studied it for a moment, nodding thoughtfully to himself as he did so.
Zachary, too, gave his work to Benjamin. âMommy helped us with this!â
Benjaminâs eyes flashed for a moment. âShouldnât I be the one helping you? Why didnât you ask me for help?â
âWell, you werenât home last night!â countered Arissa, who was leaning against the wall.
Benjamin huffed. âNo matter where I am next time, you must let me know, at least!â
âOkay!â Arissa said when she saw his serious expression.
Edwin, Ethen, and Jack appeared with the frames.
âMrs. Graham, are these the kind of frames you were looking for?â Edwin walked up to her and showed her the frames they had dug up from somewhere in the house.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 793 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You âYes, these are the kind of frames I was looking for!â Arissa nodded happily. âCan you place them on the coffee table?â
Then, she brought the children over.
âFrom now on, the childrenâs awards and artwork will be displayed on the wall along the staircase. All the paintings will be taken down,â Benjamin instructed Edwin.
âYes, Mr. Graham,â Edwin replied happily. âIâll move the paintings elsewhere.â
Benjamin nodded.
He and Arissa then helped the children to frame up their awards.
The children were overjoyed to be spending time with their parents together.
Ethen and Jack had wanted to offer their help, but when they saw how happy the family was together, they held themselves back.
After watching them for a while, they went over to help Edwin move the paintings.
