Chapter 678 Are You Here Looking For Mister Graham
Arissa nodded and didn’t interrupt Darius and the children. She nodded at Kingsley and the others, then went back
to her room to take a bath.
Meanwhile, Zachary, Oliver, Japer, and Jesse had fallen asleep halfway into the story. Tim was trying hard to stay
awake, while Gavin was simply too excited to sleep since all his siblings were with him.
“Go to sleep now. If you want to hear more, just tell Grandpa to continue next time,” Benjamin murmured as he
stroked Tim on his head.
Glancing at him, Tim, who was still alert a moment ago, fell asleep shortly after.
Benjamin turned his attention to Gavin. “Everyone’s asleep. You should join them.”
Gavin looked at him before turning his attention to his siblings. When he saw that Oliver’s glasses were still not
removed, he got out of bed.
Benjamin pressed him back down. “Where are you going?”
Gavin’s lips twitched. “Oliver hasn’t removed his glasses yet.”
Benjamin leaned in to take off Oliver’s glasses and put them on the side table.
Unsatisfied with how Benjamin had placed them, Gavin got up to adjust their position before lying back down.

Darius said to Gavin softly, “Gavin, go to sleep. I’ll come to see all of you tomorrow.”
“Okay!”
Gavin glanced at Darius and closed his eyes.
Having made sure Gavin was covered snugly, Benjamin got to his feet and turned to Darius.
“It’s getting late. You should go back now.”
Darius shot him a glare before turning his gaze to the children. He brought out his phone to take a picture before
putting it away again.
Only after he took another look at his grandchildren did he leave reluctantly. “Let’s go, William.”
William bid Benjamin farewell and left with Darius.
When Darius reached the door, he turned around to instruct Edwin, “Oh, Edwin, please let Issa know that I’ve gone
home.”
“Understood, Old Mr. Graham.”
After acknowledging with a smile, he escorted them out.
When Benjamin’s gaze fell upon Kingsley and the rest, they reciprocated his look before turning to leave.
Benjamin sat in the children’s room until he was sure Gavin was asleep. Only then did he turn off the light and leave
the room.
After closing the door, he headed downstairs but returned to the master bedroom when something suddenly
occurred to him.
Following the sound of flowing water from the bathroom, Benjamin walked over and knocked on the door. “The
children are asleep.”
“Okay.”
Arissa, who was dressing at that moment, briefly froze when she heard his voice.
When she didn’t hear him leave, she stared at the door, her heart pounding furiously.
Benjamin cleared his throat. “Go to bed early once you’re done.”
“Okay.” Arissa continued to watch the door.
Only when she heard him leave did the tension within her ease.
She put on her clothes and wrapped her hair in a towel before coming out.
With Benjamin nowhere to be seen, she went to the children’s room and entered after gently pushing the door
open.
Once she was certain that all of them were asleep, she quietly left the room.
Before she did, she turned a night light on when she noticed the room was in total darkness.
Then she returned to her room and began to blow her hair.

However, when she found it to be silent with no one in sight, she was stunned.
Have they all gone home?
Right then, Edwin entered and saw Arissa. He informed her, “Ms. York, Old Mr. Graham wanted me to tell you that
he has gone home.”
“Oh, okay.” Arissa nodded.
“Are you hungry?” Edwin asked with a smile. “I can make supper for you.”
Arissa shook her head. “It’s fine. I’m not hungry. I’ll be sleeping soon anyway.”
Noticing that her eyes were scanning the surroundings, Edwin asked knowingly, “Ms. York, are you looking for Mr.
Graham?”
Arissa was taken by surprise. “Has he gone out?”
“Mr. Graham is in the study. He’s probably dealing with work together with Ethen and the others,” Edwin replied as
he pointed upstairs.
Arissa was a little embarrassed when she caught sight of Edwin’s nosy gaze.
“I’m going to sleep now. Edwin, you should rest early too.”
“All right.” Edwin beamed.
