Never Late, Never Away Chapter 506

Benedict instructed a servant to show Larry his room, and reminded her to care for his safety.

“You really spoil him.” Vivian watched the servant lead Larry up the stairs carefully, then turned and looked at Benedict helplessly.

“Don’t worry, I won’t go too far. I definitely won’t spoil your precious son,” Benedict said jokingly as he grabbed Vivian’s purse and hung it on a rack for her.

Vivian just shook her head. She sat down on the couch with Benedict across from her.

“Why didn’t you let me know that you’re coming back?” asked Benedict. “I could have picked you up from the airport. Didn’t you say that you were going to come back a few days later?”

“Yes, I did but Larry was very insistent about seeing his uncle again, so I have no choice but to return earlier,” she said, laughing. “I was afraid that you’d be busy, so I didn’t want to disturb you.”

“I would always make time for my sister and nephew, no matter how busy I get.” Benedict looked at her sternly. “Do you think of me as your brother?”

“Okay, okay,” Vivian said, waving a hand. After all these years, she still felt awful whenever he said something like that. “Ben, we’re a family. There’s no need to be so gracious all the time. Besides, Larry and I got here safely, don’t we? You’re not going to pull a long face with us as soon as we’re here, are you?”

Finally, Benedict’s expression softened and he smiled. Vivian was getting better and better at being coy with him. How could I remain angry after she said that?

With Vivian full of smiles before him, a hint of worry arose in his eyes. Is this the right decision to make?

“What’s wrong, Ben?” Vivian asked, as she noticed the change in his gaze.
