The More the Merrier novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 Should I Feed You

“Eat up.” Arissa paused. “Ah! I almost forgot…”

She suddenly remembered that the kids were still at school and took out her phone to call Gavin.

Benjamin knitted his brow after seeing that Arissa ignored him after putting down the soup to make a phone call instead.

“Who are you calling?”

“I’m calling Gavin. The kids are still at school, so I want to go fetch them, Mr. Graham,” Arissa answered after she turned her head.

“There’s no need for that. I’ve already asked someone to go fetch them home,” Benjamin’s eyes glistened when he spoke.

“When was that?” Arissa was astonished.

“Do you think you were the only one who remembered that?” Benjamin sneered.

Arissa pursed her lips. Do you have to be so angry?

That said, she was at ease after knowing that the kids were home.

Right then, Gavin picked up the phone.

“Mommy!”

Hearing her son’s tiny voice, Arissa smiled.

“Hi, Sweetheart. Tell me, are you guys home now or at school?”

Benjamin narrowed his eyes when he heard that. Is she doubting me?

“We’re at home, Mommy,” Gavin sounded a little unconfident, but Arissa did not notice.

“Oh, you’re all at home. Then, if you guys are hungry, ask the butler to cook something and eat first. I’m not sure when I’ll be going back, so eat your dinner earlier.” Arissa told him.

The little guy nodded his head at the other end of the line and replied, “Okay. I know, Mommy. Don’t worry about us. We ate quite a bit not long ago.”

“Great!” Arissa exclaimed before saying goodbye and ending the call.

She figured she should not take too long on the phone since Benjamin was staring right at her.

Meanwhile, a sense of jealousy came welling up from Benjamin when he saw how endearing Arissa’s smile was.

“Why aren’t you eating, Mr. Graham?”

Arissa noticed that he did not even touch his food.

“How can I eat like this?” Benjamin stared at her like she was the devil herself.

Then, he lifted his left arm with the IV drip still attached to it to guilt Arissa.

“You have your other arm, right?” Arissa was perplexed.
