Chapter 423 The Meal Prepared By Darius
“Mommy, he must still be waiting for us. We will find him eventually,” Zachary put away his own feelings of sadness and consoled his mother.
Arissa looked at her son as she replied softly, “Yeah, you’re right.”
After going down the stairs, she called out to her other children, “Sweethearts, come on, let’s have dinner!”
“Mommy!” Jesse ran toward her and hugged her leg.
Arissa stroked her hair. “What’s the matter?”
Zachary signaled to his sister not to leak the secret.
“Mommy, I’m hungry…” Jesse pouted.
Arissa laughed softly at that. She then took her daughter’s hand and led her toward the dining room. “Come on, let’s go and fill up your little tummy right now.”
“Issa, bring the kids over. It’s time for dinner!” Darius took off his apron and greeted Arissa cordially.
“Got it!” she responded cheerfully.
“Mommy, let’s wash our hands before we eat!” Gavin reminded Arissa.
“Sure.” Arissa led the five kids to wash their hands.
“Benjamin, it’s time for dinner!”
From the dining room, Darius yelled in the direction of the study.
Shaun had already gone to get Benjamin, but when he saw that the man was busy, he waited for a while.
“Benjamin, it’s time to eat.”
“Yeah, got it,” Benjamin replied before he packed his things and got up from his seat.
“You know, I saw Gavin and the others in a bad mood earlier. I’m not sure if it’s because of hunger or something else,” Shaun casually informed him.
Benjamin tilted his head and looked at him. “Wasn’t Arissa together with them?”
“No. When I told them it was meal time just now, they said Arissa was upstairs.”
Shaun followed Benjamin out of the study.
They just happened to see Arissa coming out with the five kids after washing their hands.
Benjamin studied the faces of Arissa and the five children and noticed the sullen look on Arissa.
He frowned. “Are you still not feeling well?”
Arissa stiffened and replied, “I’m fine. Go wash your hands, Old Mr. Graham said it’s time for dinner.”
