Chapter 1111 Darius Misses Benjamin And Arissa

Lunch was being served at the Graham residence. As they were eating, Benjamin received a call from William, the butler of Old Manor. He put his fork down and got up from the table to pick up the call.

“Hello?”

“Mr. Benjamin, Mr. Nick's family had come to Old Manor to see Old Mr. Graham,” William reported. The elderly butler also relayed Crystal's and Julian's complaints to Benjamin.

“Got it. You don't have to worry.” Benjamin had been expecting such a response. “How's Dad? Is he all right?”

“Old Mr. Graham is fine. He did not pay them any attention. I believe they, too, knew that they were in the wrong. It is just that they were rather thick-skinned. They were pestering Old Mr. Graham for quite some time and had just left.”

“Got it. Thank you, William. Please take good care of Dad,” said Benjamin as he stopped commenting on the incident.

“Don't worry Mr. Graham. I'll take good care of Old Mr. Graham. Oh, that's right! When did you return from the business trip? Old Mr. Graham misses you and Mrs. Graham. If you're free tonight, do come over for dinner!” William suggested, remembering how much Darius had been talking about how much he missed Benjamin and Arissa every passing day. However, Darius was worried that he might disturb the married couple, so he kept himself from calling them.

“Sure! I'll bring her over tonight!” Benjamin agreed without hesitation.

After hanging up the call, William informed Darius that Benjamin and Arissa would be coming over for dinner. When Darius heard the news, he was overjoyed and all the negative emotions that had been evoked by the visitation of Nick's family dissipated.

Excited, Darius instructed William to prepare some of the couple's favorite dishes.

“Also, the children will definitely be coming too. Prepare some of the food they like as well. See to it that each of them has a dish that they like. Don't play favorites!” Darius reminded.

“Noted, Mr. Graham. You go ahead and take a rest. I'll get the preparations done!” William was also looking forward to their arrival.

“Thank you!” Darius patted the back of William's hand in gratitude. Suddenly, a question resurfaced in his mind. “Did Benjamin say when they had returned from the business trip?” Darius asked.

As a response, William shook his head. “Mr. Benjamin had not mentioned anything. Perhaps they had returned this morning?”

“Julian immediately went over to see them after they had come back this morning?” Darius was puzzled.

Even I didn't know that Benjamin had returned from his business trip. How did Julian hear about their return so quickly?

Upon seeing how Darius was brooding, William could not help but smile in amusement. “Who cares about when did Mr. Benjamin come back? You can just ask him about it tonight when you see him!” William coaxed.

“That's true!” Satisfied, Darius retreated into his room to rest.
