Chapter 337 Benjamin Was Not Invited To Dinner

“Okay. See you later, Sweetheart!”

After Arissa hung up, she could feel Benjamin staring at her.

She turned around and stared back at him, asking, “Why are you looking at me?”

Benjamin felt slightly frustrated when he saw that the smile that Arissa had on her face earlier on had completely

disappeared.

He could not understand why the woman was so gentle when she interacted with the kids but was stingy with her

affection when she was facing him.

“Is Dad treating you to dinner?” Benjamin asked, cocking his brows.

Arissa nodded and replied, “That’s what Gavin said.”

Benjamin’s eyes gleamed when he heard that, wondering why he was not invited to dinner as well.

How could my own father do that to me? Am I really his son?

At the same time, he also thought about his own son, who no longer felt like his son, as the boy was much closer to

Arissa than him currently.

Benjamin’s face fell slightly at the thought of that.

Arissa took a glance at his handsome face that was visibly tensed and explained in a soft voice, “Maybe Mr. Graham

didn’t ask you because he thought that you were busy.”

Benjamin turned toward her and replied, “You don’t have to comfort me. Do you really think I’ll be upset over just a

meal?”

Arissa gulped when she heard that.

If you’re not upset, why are you following me then?

On the way to the restaurant, the couple did not speak to each other.

When they reached the dinner venue, the five children were in the midst of playing with Darius, Kingsley, and

Shaun in the private room.

Laughter filled the entire room.

When the kids saw Arissa, they ran over to her at once.



“Mommy, you’re here!” they exclaimed, jumping into their mother’s arms, hugging her.

Arissa stumbled a little when she tried to take all five of them into her embrace.

Noticing that, Benjamin quickly put his arms around her waist to steady her, preventing her from falling.

“Mommy, we’ve waited so long for you to reach!”

Arissa smiled and tousled the children’s hair affectionately.

“Didn’t you say dinner start at six?”

The kids nodded and replied, “Even though it’s at six, you can still come earlier!”

Arissa replied with a chuckle, “I was worried that you guys won’t be here yet if I arrive too early!”

“All right, that’s enough. Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner,” Darius said to Arissa warmly.

“Mr. Graham,” Arissa greeted Darius at once.

The older man nodded in acknowledgment before glancing at Benjamin and saying, “I’m surprised that my busy

son is free to join us for dinner today!”

Benjamin looked at his father, feeling rather speechless.

Arissa let out an amused chuckle while Kingsley and Shaun tried to suppress their smiles.

“Mommy, let’s go wash our hands and get ready for dinner! I’m famished!” Jasper said, wrapping his arms around

his stomach.

Arissa looked at her cheeky son and asked, “Didn’t you guys eat something when you were outside just now?”

Jasper giggled awkwardly while Zachary jumped in and said, “Mommy, he’s lying! He ate the most out of all of us

just now!”

“Yeah! He was eating every food that he’d set his sights on. Grandpa bought us a ton of food just now.” Oliver

followed his brother’s lead and ratted on Jasper as well.

If not for the fact that their grandfather was paying, Jasper would not get to enjoy that much food.

He was simply interested in every single food he saw, and it was a waste of money.

Jesse was beaming from ear to ear as she chimed in, “Mommy, Jasper snatched my food to eat as well!”

Arissa pinched Jasper’s cheeks and said, “How can you bully your sister!”

Jasper stuck out his tongue mischievously and replied, “Mommy, Grandpa dotes on us so much! He buys us

everything we want!”



Arissa did not know whether to laugh or cry at her son’s antics. “So, if Grandpa doesn’t buy you anything, does it

mean that he doesn’t dote on you anymore?”

Jasper pressed his lips together and replied, “Of course not.”

“Mommy, why is he here too?” Gavin shot a glance at Benjamin and asked.

Arissa gave the boy a hug before replying, “He saw me when I was trying to sneak out earlier and followed me into

the elevator.”

Zachary blinked a few times and said, “I bet he’s constantly spying on Mommy!”

Arissa was at a loss for words after hearing the kids’ comments.

Benjamin followed behind when Arissa took the children to wash their hands.

When Benjamin was washing his hands next to Arissa, Zachary and his siblings sneaked a glance at their father.

Sensing their gaze, Benjamin looked at them and asked, “Was it fun hanging out with your grandpa today?”

The kids nodded and replied, “Yeah! We had so much fun!”

Benjamin nodded and waited for them to finish washing their hands before bringing them back to the private room.

When they were back, Darius said to Arissa warmly, “Issa, come and take a seat!”

“Okay!” Arissa nodded with a smile.
