The More the Merrier novel Chapter 723

Chapter 723 Benjamin Wakes The Children Up

“Well, I feel like having sandwiches today. They look good.” Speaking, he took up the cutlery and flipped the sandwiches. For a moment, Arissa thought his behavior was funny. “Do you really hate scallions that much? It’s pretty nice. You should try it.”

Benjamin glanced at her and then at the sandwiches. He thought for a bit and reached for one while she continued cooking. Hm, not bad. He took another one.

When Arissa came back again, she realized he had already eaten up two plates of sandwiches. “You…”

Arissa stared at him, dumbfounded. He finished two plates. The rest is not enough for the kids. Looking at how troubled Arissa was, Benjamin could not help but raise his brows. “What’s wrong with that? Can’t I eat the food?”

“Yes, you can, but you can’t just eat other people’s share. The remaining food is not enough for the children,” Arissa complained softly.

On the other side, Edwin felt entertained by their interaction.

Benjamin rubbed his nose guiltily and turned toward the butler.

He called out, “Edwin, put the remaining sandwiches all on the same plate.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham.”

Edwin immediately grouped the sandwiches on a big plate and put them in the microwave to heat them up.

Arissa was at a loss for words. She went away and continued making breakfast.

As for Benjamin, he went out after lingering for a while longer.

Then, he went upstairs to shower. After he had changed into a new set of neat and clean clothes, it was already time to wake the children up, so he went over to the children’s bedroom right after.

Since the children were still sleeping, he pulled the curtains aside to let sunlight in.

“Time to wake up, Gavin,” he called, turning toward the bed.

The boy turned to another side and stretched before sitting up in bed.

He rubbed his eyes, looking at his father sleepily.

“Good boy. Go wash up,” Benjamin coaxed, ruffling his hair.

“Tim and Zachary, up!”

Benjamin patted them. “Oliver and Jasper, you guys too! It’s already six.”

When Oliver and Jasper heard their father, they yawned and asked, “Where’s Mommy?”

“She’s making breakfast,” he answered, picking them up from the bed.

Then, he adjusted their clothes before asking them to wash up.
