Do You Have A Poor Memory
Although Oliver and Arissa were overjoyed, the other four kids felt gloomy since they did not get the
flavors that they liked.
Zachary took a dig at Benjamin, “Mr. Graham, do you have a poor memory?”
Benjamin glanced at him.
Kingsley burst into laughter. “He did it on purpose!”
“Aren’t you too being too biased, Benjamin? You should’ve bought us milk tea, but you bought us plain
water instead,” teased Shaun with a wide grin.
“He’s right. I wanted milk tea, not water.”
Darius chided Benjamin, “Are you trying to piss me off or something?”
Benjamin shot a glance at his father. “Milk tea is too sweet, so you can’t drink it.”
Darius was rendered speechless. Since he had a high blood sugar level, he had to keep to a diet.
Kingsley rebuked, “But we can drink it. So why didn’t you buy some for us?”
“I didn’t want Dad to yearn for milk tea if he sees both of you drinking it. That’s why I got plain water for
the two of you too,” replied Benjamin calmly.
The two of them were at a loss for words.
Gazing at them curiously, Arissa asked, “Mr. Graham, why can’t you drink milk tea?”
Darius laughed. “I have a high blood sugar level.”
Arissa understood now. “In that case, you should drink less sweet drinks.”
Darius nodded. Looking at his five grandchildren drinking the milk tea happily, he swallowed hard.
“Here, Grandpa, you can have some barbeque!” offered Gavin.
“Okay.”
Darius tousled his grandson’s hair affectionately,
When Benjamin saw how quickly Arissa had finished her drink, he raised his brows. “Would you like to
have more?”
Arissa glanced at him.
“No.”
Looking at her earnestly, Benjamin wiped the sauce from her lips.
Stunned, Arissa felt her cheeks burning.
“Are you blushing, Mommy?”
Jasper stared at her intently.
When he said that, Gavin, Zachary, Oliver, and Jesse turned their heads around at the same time.
Even Darius and the other adults looked over curiously.
When Arissa felt everyone’s stares on her, her face turned even redder.
“No, I’m not! You’re mistaken!”
Arissa pinched her son’s cheek.
Jasper laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.
“Mommy’s blushing!” He dashed away while chuckling.
Everyone looked at Arissa as they laughed joyfully, making her feel extremely embarrassed.
When she noticed Benjamin staring at her with a smile, she glared at him furiously.
He raised his eyebrows domineeringly and moved closer to her.
“Why are you glaring at me?”
When Arissa felt his charismatic aura envelop her, her heart skipped a beat.
She took a step back. “Y-You’re wrong. I wasn’t glaring at you.”
Benjamin scoffed.
“Hurry up and eat your barbeque.”
He passed the food over. When Arissa took it, she returned to her senses. “Isn’t this yours?”
“I’m not eating.”
Arissa pouted before distributing the food to everyone else.
After they were done with their meals, Kingsley and the other adults brought the kids in front to play,
while Benjamin and Arissa trailed behind them.
All the while, Benjamin kept receiving calls about work.
Arissa looked at him. “Why don’t you go and settle work first? I’ll go back after accompanying them.
Benjamin glanced at her. “Let’s go together.”
Staring at him for a while, Arissa fell silent and continued admiring the scenery with the rest.
After walking for more than an hour, Darius finally felt like going back.
He prepared to leave for the Old Manor. Since the five kids were not going to follow him back, they
bade farewell to him.
“Goodbye, Grandpa!”
“Goodbye, Sweethearts!”
Grinning, Darius waved at them. He then reminded Arissa, “You should go back earlier and rest. You’ve
been busy for the entire day, after all.”
“Got it. Have a safe trip home, Mr. Graham!”
Arissa waved at him with a smile.
Darius nodded before instructing the chauffeur to drive him back.
