Benjamin carried Arissa downstairs anyway. When she met Darius' amused gaze, she tugged on
Benjamin's sleeve to make him put her down, but the man pretended to miss the signal.
“I thought both of you were taking a nap!” Darius teased as he looked at the couple knowingly.
Arissa blushed. “Dad,” she greeted lamely. “How long have you been here?”
“I asked Edwin to check on the both of you as soon as I got here,” the old man explained with a chuckle
as he took a sip of his coffee. “I hope I didn't interrupt your rest.”
“No, I've been awake for a while now,” Arissa said immediately.
Benjamin carried her to the couch across from Darius and set her down on it. Then, he took the seat
next to her and poured her a drink as he addressed Darius, “What brings you here?”
Darius glared at his son indignantly. Could he sound any less welcoming?
Arissa elbowed Benjamin as if to alert him of his rudeness. Then, she flashed a smile at Darius and
said brightly, “Please have some fruit, Dad.”
After that, she turned and asked Edwin to prepare some finger food.
“Oh, there's no need for that. We've brought cookies!” Darius beamed. He liked Arissa a lot. He
gestured to the old butler to bring the cookies out for Arissa to try.
“William made these himself. They are not too buttery, which is perfect for pregnant women. Go on, try
them, and tell me what you think!” Darius prompted.
Arissa eyed the assortment of cookies that were decked out on the coffee table. They were delicate
and colorful, not to mention, they looked appetizing.
“Mrs. Graham, each color has a different flavor,” William explained respectfully as he stood next to
Darius.
“Thank you, William. I'll try one, then,” Arissa said. She picked up one of the cookies and popped it into
her mouth. Her eyes lit up at once, and she gave William a thumbs-up as she praised wholeheartedly,
“It's delicious, William! You've got skills!”
William's eyes crinkled as he grinned. “Have some more, Mrs. Graham. I've made boxes of these, so
they should last you for a good couple of days. I'll make more for you when you've finished them.”
“Yes, please! Thank you, William,” she replied. She reached for another cookie, but this time, she
offered it to Darius and said sweetly, “Here, Dad, try one!”
The old man was beyond elated.
Arissa went on to offer the cookies to William and Edwin, then invited them to eat with her.
Next to her, Benjamin cast her a sidelong glance. He was a little miffed that she had offered everyone
else a cookie but him.
“You shouldn't eat so much or you'll get bloated,” he pointed out to her.
Arissa gave him a shrewd look. Her mouth was stuffed, so her retort came out rather incoherently. “Ish
not ash if I'm eating a truckful!”
She quickly covered her mouth when she realized she was spraying crumbs all over the place.
“Bloating? No, we've consulted Shaun over this, and he said these cookies could be a proper meal all
by themselves. She'll be fine!” Darius interjected, glaring at his son. As if we would deliberately make
something that'll give Issa gas!
“Mr. Graham, please rest assured that none of these cookies will give Mrs. Graham gas. They're made
with easy-to-digest and nutritious ingredients!” William piped up with a chuckle.
“Don't eat them if you don't want to.” Arissa gave Benjamin a dark look and went on to try the other
cookies on the platter. Mmm... they are so good!
“She said it!” Darius chimed in, also glaring at Benjamin.
The corner of Benjamin's mouth twitched. He was only worried that Arissa might get bloated from
eating too many cookies. He didn't think he ought to be admonished for his concern.
“Don't you have work to do? You don't have to be here, you know. Issa can keep us company,” Darius
said. He was playing the elder card now and shooing Benjamin away before the latter said anything
more annoying.
“Yeah! Go and get your work done or something. I'll be here to entertain Dad,” Arissa chimed in.
Benjamin frowned. It's almost like she doesn't want me around her.
He only stayed in the living room to keep her company, and frankly, he couldn't care less about Darius.
But here she is, heartlessly chasing me away!
At that moment, Arissa sensed that she might have offended Benjamin. She blinked and peered at him
cautiously, then added in a slightly gentler tone, “You said you have work to do, right? Go and get it out
of the way before the kids come home for dinner, then we can all hang out together!”
She was trying to appease him.
