Chapter 658 Bitten By Benjamin Jack was touched. He looked at Arissa and said, âYouâre so nice, Mrs. Graham!â
Arissa blushed when she heard those words.
Benjamin stared at her and snorted softly. âYouâre quite adept at standing up for others, arenât you?â
Arissaâs eyes flickered, and she ignored Benjaminâs sarcastic tone. âHe was just messing around with the kids, no? Youâre wrong for throwing a tantrum.â
Jack became worried for Arissa when he saw Benjaminâs warning look.
âSit down, Jack!â Edwin uttered. Mr. Graham is only going to get even more pissed if Jack keeps standing there.
Benjamin turned toward Edwin and stared at him intently. âYouâre not getting paid this month!â
âYes, Sir!â Edwin retreated to the side and kept silent.
Arissa was frustrated by Benjaminâs domineering attitude.
Although most of the people there were aware of Benjaminâs temper, Mary and Tim werenât.
That was why they felt uneasy when they saw Benjamin throwing a tantrum.
Instantly, the mood in the dining room became awkward.
When Arissa saw how uncomfortable Mary looked, she reached out her hand to tug at Benjaminâs pants under the table before shooting him a pointed look.
She then reminded him softly, âDonât throw a tantrum when everyoneâs eating. Do you see that? Theyâre now too scared to eat.â
Benjamin glanced at her and saw how passive and coquettish she looked.
When he eventually saw her hand on his pants, his mood lightened up almost instantly.
âPlease carry on, Grandaunt!â Benjamin uttered respectfully and shot Edwin a look, hinting him to get food for Mary.
âOkay. You too!â Mary nodded and said nothing more.
Benjamin then glanced at Tim. âTim, just take whatever you want to eat, okay? If you canât reach them, get the others to help you!â
âThank you, Mr. Graham!â Tim answered politely.
After that, Benjaminâs gaze shifted toward Jack.
Arissa was afraid that the tension would rise again, so she quickly coaxed, âBenjamin, let Jack join us, okay? We have plenty of food!â
She even placed some of his favorite food on his plate as she spoke.
Benjamin snorted lightly and ordered, âSit down, then!â
Jack was extremely grateful. âThank you, Mr. Graham! Thank you, Mrs. Graham!â
Arissa smiled awkwardly and answered, âYouâre welcome. Also, you can just address me asââ
âHey!â Benjamin voiced his displeasure.
Arissa turned to look at him.
âDid you forget what youâve promised me?â Benjamin asked.
Reminded of her promise, Arissa cleared her throat and turned away. âDonât be shy, okay? Eat up, everyone!â she said.
Edwin didnât feel a hint of uneasiness when he saw Arissa acting like the lady of the house. Instead, he was rather pleased.
Kingsley and Shaun smiled faintly when they sneaked a peek at Benjamin, who was sitting in the main seat at the head of the dining table. Thereâs no doubt that Benjamin does treat Arissa differently.
Jack merely kept quiet as he smiled at the six kids.
The kids were all busy gobbling up the food served to them. When they finished the food on their plates, Jack and the others would fill it up again.
Arissa was pleased when she saw the men caring for the kids, so she smiled and focused on filling up her own stomach.
However, she could only eat slowly because her lips were causing her pain.
Benjamin noticed it, so he turned toward her and asked, âAre the dishes not to your liking?â
Arissa shot him a look and answered, âThatâs not it!â
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 657 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You âWhy are you eating so slow then?â Benjamin was puzzled because she was usually a fast eater.
Arissa twitched her lips and smiled at him before reminding him what he had done to her.
âAre you able to eat fast if your lips are in pain?â
She had forgotten to lower her voice when she said that.
Hence, everyone in the dining room could hear her loud and clear.
Kingsley was the first to react as he started laughing.
Seeing that, the rest of them couldnât help but laugh as well. âHahaha!â
âMrs. Graham, please be honest with us, okay? Did Benjamin do that to your lips? Did he bite you?â Kingsley asked.
