Chapter 371 Benjamin My Daddy
“Have your fever subsided?” This time, it was Jasper’s voice.
“Yes, I’m okay now.”
Arissa assured her children to prevent them from worrying too much. She spoke cautiously, so they
would not fret too much.
Then, Jesse requested, “Mommy, can you turn on your video? Let us have a look at you!”
Arissa did not anticipate his request. Alarmed, she hastily replied, “No, I can’t do that! There are many
people here because I am not at home.”
If she turned her video on, the children would notice that she was in the hospital and worry about her
again.
“Mommy, if you aren’t at home, where are you? I thought you were sleeping minutes ago?”
Jesse was quick to pick up the inconsistency in her story.
Sticking to her lie, Arissa stated, “Oh, yes. I was sleeping earlier. However, I’m at your father’s office
now. His colleagues are around, so it isn’t convenient to turn on the video now.”
Frustrated, Gavin huffed, “Mommy, I thought he allowed you to take a break from work. Why did you
return to the office?”
Arissa gave Benjamin an apologetic look, and he could only shrug.
Feeling bad, Arissa rubbed her nose and tried to find an excuse. “Something cropped up, and I had to
deal with it. I will go home soon!”
She wanted to head home once she got the drip.
“Mommy, don’t think about work all day. You have to rest well, so we won’t have to worry about you!”
Zachary nagged while frowning.
“Yes, Sweetheart. I will heed your advice and head home soon.”
Arissa did not dare to make any other excuse and agreed readily.
“Mommy, have you eaten?” Jasper asked.
Stubbornly, Arissa replied, “Yes, I have.”
“What did you eat, Mommy?”
Oliver continued, suspicious of her response.
“I had pasta!” Arissa lied.
Amused, Benjamin stood by her side with a tickled expression on his face.
Arissa was obstinate, and she shot him a warning look.
“Mommy, I thought you were sleeping earlier. When did you eat? Not much time has passed since we
called earlier!” Jesse logically argued.
At once, Arissa’s expression dimmed. Why is she so sharp at times like that? She isn’t always as quick
as I want her to be.
“Mommy, are you lying to us?” Zachary questioned, doubtful of all her earlier responses.
Arissa did not know how to reply.
“I did eat. However, I did not finish it. I ate a little and had to rush over to deal with the matter in the
office.”
“Mommy, you should finish your meal. Don’t go hungry because you might suffer from gastric. Daddy
doesn’t always eat his meals, and he always has gastric problems now,” Gavin advised her while
chiding Benjamin.
“Who cares if you can’t finish up your work! Your health should come first. When I go home, I will scold
him on your behalf. He promised us that he would take good care of you!”
Arissa did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Meanwhile, Benjamin raised his brows for he had been scolded for no reason.
These days, he felt like Gavin’s behaviour was getting out of hand.
Arissa turned to Benjamin. After noticing how upset he looked, she did not dare laugh at him.
“Okay, I got it. I will have my meal in a bit. Anyway, you should rest early and stop worrying about me!”
Looking at Benjamin, she added, “Your daddy hasn’t eaten either.”
“Well, that is his fault!”
None of the children jumped in to defend him.
“Mommy, you have to eat and rest well. We will punish you if you still look sick when we get back!”
Jasper snorted and even slapped his thigh to warn Arissa.
It made Arissa laugh. “Okay, Sweetheart. Go on and take your afternoon nap now. Bye!”
Although the children were reluctant to put down the phone, they wanted her to rest. Therefore, they
sadly bid goodbye to her.
“Mommy, bye!”
After Arissa cut the call, she heard Benjamin’s jealous tone.
“The children are concerned about you but do not seem to care much for me.”
“You are too hard on them,” Arissa defended them.
Benjamin frowned.
Unfazed, Arissa reminded, “When you were sick, they cared a lot about you too!”
