Chapter 257 Help Him Shower

Benjamin picked up his phone and held it to his ear.

“Hello?”

His deep, calm voice betrayed nothing of his current situation.

Arissa glanced at him and sat aside.

He glanced back at her before saying, “Yeah, I am caught up with something. Is Dad around?”

The butler immediately passed the phone to Darius.

“Where have you been, little punk? You didn’t pick up my calls,” Darius’ voice sounded really strict.

Benjamin’s eyes glinted and he replied, “I was in a meeting and didn’t notice your call.”

Arissa continued to look at him.

“I wanted to ask you to bring Gavin’s mom back for dinner today, but you didn’t pick up,” Darius grumbled. “Bring her back tomorrow, alright?”

Benjamin frowned. He didn’t know if he would recover by tomorrow.

It wasn’t exactly troublesome to do anything, but he still felt uncomfortable seeing anyone in his current situation.

“I’ll let you know again tomorrow. I might still be busy.”

“Are you actually so busy that you can’t even come home for just one simple meal? Do you think you’re the president or something? How long has it been since you came back to eat with us? It’s starting to look like you don’t even want to bring her home.”
