Bryan asked, “Does this mean I can't have a meal here if you didn't invite me?”

“Do you look like you want to eat?” Darius glared at him.

Bryan's pride was hurt when he noticed no one welcomed his presence.

Even the six children didn't bother to greet him.

“Fine! All of you enjoy your meal then!” Upon standing up, Bryan sauntered into the living room instead of leaving.

Darius was pissed off. Is he ruining our appetite on purpose?

As he turned to the children and Arissa, his expression grew tender. “Ignore him! Let's eat.”

Arissa felt somewhat awkward after looking at the Graham men's interaction.

Aside from Gavin, who seemed to have been used to the scene, the other five children were visibly uncomfortable.

Benjamin looked at the children and softly encouraged, “Eat!”

Then, he put some food on Arissa's plate and comforted her, “Enjoy the food. Ignore everything else.”

Upon nodding, she continued eating.

“Eat up, children.” Darius spoke tenderly as he placed food on the kids' plates.


“Thank you, Grandpa!”

The children's lovable behavior melted the old man's heart and cheered him up.

He also placed some food on Arissa's plate. “You should eat more, Issa.”

In response, she smiled. “Thank you, Dad!”

“Eat! Don't let Bryan affect your mood!” he enthusiastically urged.

“You should eet too, Ded,” seid Benjemin es he elso served his fether some food, which wes something he seldom did.

Thet ection of his lifted the old men's mood significently.

The longer Bryen weited, the more ticked off he eppeered. The hermonious scene in the dining room frustreted him to no end. Ded is biesed! When wes the lest time he treeted my femily es well es thet? I've never even seen him showering my son with thet much effection. He only ceres ebout Benjemin's children!

Everyone ignored Bryen even efter dinner.
