Zachary, Gavin, and Oliver turned their heads to look at Benjamin. They wondered if their dad walked
without making any sound.
When Benjamin saw the frightened looks on the children's faces, his brows furrowed slightly. “Did I
scare you?”
“Isn't it obvious?” Zachary retorted, clearly annoyed.
Benjamin let out a light hum.
When Zachary glanced at him, their gazes met. In the next second, his attention shifted elsewhere.
“You walk so quietly that you frightened your younger siblings,” Gavin scolded with a tense expression.
Benjamin's eyes narrowed as he locked gazes with Gavin. He then shifted his attention to the other
children.
“Are you tired from standing?” Benjamin asked them again. His hands clasped behind his back,
exuding an air of authority.
The little children pouted their lips as they knew from his tone that Jonathan had been comforting them
earlier.
“I'm so tired!” Jasper exclaimed when he saw they remained silent. “My feet are hurting!”
Benjamin nodded and looked at them. “Do you still remember why you were made to stand as
punishment?”
The kids pursed their lips, obediently faced the wall, and fell silent.
Benjamin stared at the backs of their heads and instructed, “Everyone, turn around!”
The six kids stealthily exchanged glances before slowly turning to face Benjamin. Their eyes were cast
down, not daring to look directly at him.
“If your mom hadn't found out, I would have let you guys off the hook this time. What a pity!” Benjamin
revealed to them.
The children all looked up in surprise as they realized that what Jonathan said was true.
“You could also choose not to punish us!” Oliver glanced at him and mumbled under his breath.
“Since all of you have upset your mom, you shall stand there until the time is up!” Benjamin's face was
stern, leaving no room for negotiation. He wanted to make Arissa happy.
The children didn't dare to object, fearing that their mom would make them run dozens of kilometers.
“Do you know how long Mommy asked us to stand?” Gavin glanced at Benjamin. Arissa didn't mention
how long they were supposed to stand just now.
“What do you think?” Benjamin playfully asked the children, allowing them to make the choice.
Gavin gulped and turned to look at his younger brothers and sisters. The children exchanged glances.
“Just let us know how long you want us to stand here,” Zachary asked directly. He was ready to face
the consequences and did not want to make the decision himself.
Benjamin chuckled slightly when he noticed the children lifted their chin higher.
“It's not about whether we are satisfied or not; we want you to understand what's wrong with your
actions and why you are being punished! Once you've figured it out, there will be no need for
punishment!” Benjamin turned around and walked back to his desk without informing them of the time.
The children's eyes were closely tracking his movements, and they pondered whether to claim they
understood their mistake.
Benjamin took his seat and started working instead of continuing the discussion with the children.
The kids exchanged glances, and in the end, they all silently agreed to stand there for another half an
hour.
“Daddy, we were wrong. We won't cause trouble anymore!” Gavin, the eldest, said to Benjamin.
Benjamin put down the document in his hand and looked up at the six children who were still standing
obediently.
“You said the same thing last time!”
Gavin pursed his lips and reasoned with Benjamin. “That bad guy kidnapped Tim and Zachary and
even made Tim sick. We're furious. Even though Daddy has taken revenge on him, we want to teach
him a lesson in our own way.”
Benjamin scoffed lightly, “Your teachings are nothing more than child's play; it doesn't affect him at all.
In fact, you might even put yourselves in danger again.”
Even though the children were angry, they knew what Benjamin said was right.
“Do you know his Achilles' heel?” Zachary furrowed in deep concentration as he stared intently at
Benjamin.
To deal with an enemy, one must strike at their weak points. That's where they would feel the blow the
most.
The children merely gave their enemy a beating, so the punishment was relatively mild.
