“Daddy, don’t you think Mommy’s made a wonderful breakfast?”

A sharp look fleeted across Benjamin’s eyes as he met his son’s bright gaze.

With a faint nod, he answered, “It’s not bad.”

For a moment, Arissa seemed stunned.

“I got lost in thought, so I wasn’t paying attention. This is a mishap. It doesn’t mean I don’t know how to fry an egg. You will know I speak the truth after tasting it!”

She picked up her fork and reached for a fried egg, which she offered to Benjamin. Then, she placed another two onto Gavin’s plate, leaving the burnt one for herself.

Benjamin glared at her, still frowning. “Why would you even want to eat the burnt one?”
