Chapter 1004

Tim shook his head in response to Arissa's question. He did not feel nervous until he set foot in the crowded Old

Manor. Feeling unsettled, he plastered himself to Arissa for reassurance.

Noticing her son's distress, Arissa hugged him and coaxed, “It's all right. Just stay close to Daddy and me. Gavin,

Zachary, and the others will always be nearby too. Don't worry about anyone else!”

It was normal for Tim to grow nervous as he had never seen such a large crowd.

Tim flushed with anxiety and asked, “Aren't you nervous, Mommy?”

Arissa smiled supportively and replied, “I wasn't nervous earlier, but you know what? I'm suddenly a bit nervous

now!”

“Mommy! Now I feel a bit nervous too!” muttered Oliver in embarrassment.

He fidgeted and adjusted his glasses.

Benjamin looked at his family and asked, “Are you all ready?”

Their trailer had pulled up to the Old Manor some time ago. Kingsley and the driver had alighted, and Benjamin

stayed behind to make sure his children and Arissa felt prepared for the meeting.

“I am!” Arissa said with a smile.

That earned her a dubious look from Benjamin, who teased, “Somehow, I get the feeling that you're the most

nervous one in this car”!

“I'm not!” Arissa refuted, though a blush tinged her cheeks in protest.

The children laughed at her flustered state as Zachary pointed out the obvious, “You're nervous, Mommy!”

“That's enough!” Arissa said sternly.

Zachary tried his best to hide his giggle.

Benjamin tried to pinch Arissa's cheeks, but she evaded his touch and complained, “Don't touch me. You'll smudge

my makeup.”

I didn't even bring a compact today.

He merely gazed at her and responded, “Your makeup is perfect. Don't worry. You'll be the most beautiful woman in

the room today!”

Arissa's cheeks burned from his compliment. She covered up her embarrassment with a glare and a curt reply,

“Let's go. Don't keep Dad waiting!”

Tickled by her response, Benjamin chuckled before leaving the trailer. Dozens of cameras flashed in his direction.

He frowned and shot Kingsley a sharp look.

The latter immediately understood the man's displeasure and hurriedly instructed the media photographers to

switch off their camera flashlights.

Only then did Benjamin turn around to lift his children out of the trailer and help Arissa alight.

Darius was waiting for them nearby, and when the six children caught sight of him, they ran toward him excitedly,

yelping, “Grandpa!”

Darius beamed at the sight of his adorable grandchildren. “You're finally here! I was wondering when you would

arrive!”

Friends, family, and media representatives had gathered at the Old Manor that night.

Everyone cooed over the six children and sighed over Darius' good fortune.

“Old Mr. Graham must be the luckiest man I know! Who else would suddenly gain five extra grandchildren at one

go?”

“More accurately, he has four grandsons and one granddaughter.”

“Did you forget the grandson he introduced previously? That makes six! I would be tired from smiling all day if

these six children were in my house!”

“They're such handsome boys; they definitely inherited their father's genes. And the young girl is an absolute doll.”

Darius reveled in his guests' praises. A smile was permanently plastered on his face.

He turned to the children and asked, “Where's your mommy?”

“Mommy's coming. She was in the car.”

At the same time, the children pointed in the trailer's direction.

“There, Grandpa. Mommy's getting out of the car!”

Benjamin was helping Arissa out of the trailer.

Curious glances were directed their way. Everyone wanted to know how the children's mother looked.

Their gazes lit up in understanding when they got a good look at Arissa.

It was no wonder the children were so beautiful; their parents were absolute lookers.

Meanwhile, Benjamin bent down to organize Arissa's skirts. She smiled gratefully at him and said, “Thank you.”

Benjamin glanced at her before slinging an arm around her waist. He whispered into her ear, “Follow me. Don't be

nervous!”

She gave him a small nod and replied, “Okay! Let's go over and greet Dad!”

Before they made a move, Darius had approached them with a crowd in tow.

“Issa!”
