Chapter 1368 Inviting Arissa Out For A Meal

After chatting with them for a while, Benjamin went to his study to work, leaving the others to relax in the living room.

When Edwin was done preparing supper, Shaun went over to the study door and called out to Benjamin.

“Benjamin, would you like some supper?”

While enjoying his paella, Shaun glanced over at Benjamin. He had to admit that Edwin's seafood paella was delicious.

Benjamin glanced up at Shaun, the aroma of the paella wafting to his nose. “Paella?” he asked.

“Yeah, Edwin's seafood paella is incredibly delicious!” Shaun said, taking a few more bites. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had missed dinner and had been starving for a while.

“Are there any more left?” Benjamin asked again.

Shaun nodded. “Yes. If you're hungry, let me get you a plate!”

“No need!” Benjamin called Arissa. “Let me ask if Arissa wants some.”

Shaun shot a playful glance at Benjamin, a smile gracing his lips as he teased, “Weren't you the one who said Arissa was resting? She's sleeping, and yet you want to rouse her for a meal?”

Benjamin ignored him. He waited for a while before Arissa finally answered the phone. “What's up?”

As her voice sounded groggy, Benjamin arched a brow and asked softly, “Are you asleep?”

“I'm feeling a little tired,” Arissa yawned. The children had bid her goodnight after their showers and retired to their respective rooms. Now left alone, she found herself bored and inclined to go to bed.

“Do you want to eat paella?” Benjamin asked, worried that she might get hungry in the middle of the night.

“Um...” Arissa hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Did you make that?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

“No, it's Edwin's seafood paella!” Benjamin told her. Shaun chimed in, “There's barbecued food too!”

Benjamin glared at him. Arissa heard him clearly. “I'm hungry, can you get me some? And some barbecued food too!”

Benjamin responded in the affirmative before ending the call. He then rose from his seat and proceeded to exit the study. As he walked past Shaun, the latter promptly sidestepped to evade Benjamin's penetrating gaze, offering an awkward chuckle in the process.

“Arissa loves barbecued food, and it's okay to indulge in it occasionally. As long as it's not food that's harmful to pregnant women, she can eat whatever she likes. Maintaining a cheerful mood is of utmost importance!”

As Benjamin approached the restaurant, Ethen, Jack, and Bradley were all seated there, feasting heartily. Upon seeing him, they hurriedly waved him over.

“Mr. Graham...”

“Enjoy the food!” Benjamin waved his hand. He proceeded to fetch a plate, serving a portion of paella for Arissa before also selecting some barbecued items for her.

“Is this for Mrs. Graham, Mr. Graham?” Edwin deduced from Benjamin's demeanor that the food was likely intended for Arissa. He approached to lend a hand in carrying some of the dishes.

“Yes!” Benjamin responded, carrying the food meant for one person upstairs.

“Aren't Gavin and the others eating?” Shaun glanced at them as he sat down at the dining table. Ethen had gone to summon the children earlier.

“The children have gone to bed!” Ethen chuckled. He had gone upstairs to get the children only to find that they were already asleep.

“That was fast!” Shaun exclaimed in surprise.

“They must be quite weary! Is there anything else you'd like to have? I'll start preparing it immediately,” Edwin offered, with the intention of ensuring everything was ready before he proceeded to tidy up the kitchen.

“That should be enough!” Shaun looked at the delicious food on the table, then glanced at Ethen and the others.

Jack and Bradley also nodded in agreement. There was no need for Edwin to prepare anything else.

“These are enough!”

“I'll go clean up the kitchen then!” Edwin said with a laugh.

“Edwin, come sit with us and have something to eat. We'll help you clean up later!” Ethen beckoned Edwin. He even stood up to get some beer.

During dinner, they still hadn't had their fill.

“Edwin, come have a drink with us!” Shaun, Jack, and Bradley beckoned. The latter even stood up to pull Edwin to the table.

Edwin was unable to decline their warm hospitality. He sat down to drink with them.

“I'll just have one drink. I have to get up at four in the morning tomorrow to make stew for Mrs. Graham!”

“What stew are you making that requires you to begin so early...”

They chatted and ate happily.
