Chapter 497 Quick To Answer The Call

Benjamin swept his gaze over Tim. “We’ll talk when you’re done eating.”

Tim hesitated for a moment before he continued eating.

As Benjamin crossed his legs, he pinned his gaze on the little boy and scrutinized him.

“Are you hungry?”

She pinched the little girl’s cheeks indulgently.

In response, Jesse nodded.

“Yup! I’m hungry, Mommy!”

“Wait for a while. I’ll order some food up!”

Arissa then phoned the suite’s housekeeper and ordered some food to be delivered to the room.

The five children were ecstatic, cheering, “Yay! We’re having supper!”
