You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1268 Guessing The Culprit

Arissa's eyes glinted when she noticed that Benjamin was jealous of her.

Smiling, she beckoned. “Why are you standing there? Come over and have breakfast with us.”

“All right,” Benjamin replied before joining them.

The children sniggered at him. Daddy needed Mommy to specifically call for him before he would come over. How childish of him! He's even worse than us.

When faced with the children's mocking gazes, Benjamin remained nonchalant. He did not feel a tad bit embarrassed.

“Move aside. I'll feed your mommy,” he instructed.

Since their father figure had spoken, the little ones could only do as he had requested.

Gavin led his younger siblings to a corner. As they continued eating breakfast, they also sent a text to Ethen.

Benjamin noticed what they were doing. He narrowed his eyes and warned them, “Don't play with your phone while eating.”

Gavin swept a gaze over his father before pressing the send button. He then kept his phone and remarked calmly, “I was just telling Mr. Frank something.” He wanted to explain that he was not playing games on his phone.

Keeping his eyes pinned on the boy, Benjamin asked, “What was it about?” Why couldn't he tell me instead?

“I'm not telling you,” Gavin replied in a cool manner.

His response evoked a chuckle from Arissa. She saw Benjamin's darkened expression and sided with her son. “I bet it's something he finds inappropriate to share with you. Go ahead and eat your food.”


Our son should have the freedom to talk about anything to whoever he likes. It's not a must for him to tell his parents everything. Benjamin is too strict on him.

Benjamin pursed his lip and said nothing. His gaze fell on Arissa. This woman spoils Gavin, and that's why he's so outrageous. Despite ranting away in his mind, Benjamin did not dare voice his dissatisfaction.

“Have some soup.” Benjamin fed her gently.

Arissa smiled and took over the spoon. “It's faster for me to eat on my own. Hurry up and finish your food. You need to send them to school in a while.”

The children glanced in the direction of their parents and then continued eating quietly.

Benjamin turned to her and said, “Dad will drive them to school.”

Surprised, Arissa blinked. She was puzzled because she did not see Darius around. “Is Dad here too?”

“Mommy, Grandpa and Great-grandaunt came over as well, but they went to see Mr. Bailey first,” Zachary updated her.

Darius and Mary must have gone to consult Shaun about Arissa's condition.

Right when their names were mentioned, the two walked into the room.

“Morning, Dad, Grandaunt,” Arissa greeted the two elderly in a friendly manner. “Please come over here and have breakfast with us.”

Darius and Mary scrutinized Arissa's face as they made small talk with her before joining the little ones for breakfast.
