Chapter 132 My Son Is With Your Kid Benjamin sent someone to pick up the kids. Does that mean heâs bringing all of them here? There are four. Even if only one is being brought here, he will definitely find out.
âReally? Why do I feel that youâre lying?â Benjaminâs gaze was piercing as he stared at her.
Arissa was at a loss for words.
Suddenly, Edwin walked in with a tray full of food. âMs. York, please have some snacks,â he said as he placed the tray on the table. âHave you had dinner? I can prepare some delicious dishes for you.â
It was hard for Arissa to decline when met with such an enthusiastic person. She nodded and said, âPlease. Thank you.â
âYouâre welcome!â Edwin bowed and turned to Benjamin. âMr. Graham, would you like to have dinner as well?â
âYes.â Benjamin nodded.
Edwin bowed and left the living room to prepare.
Arissa stared at the exquisite snacks on the tray and stole a glance at Benjamin.
Seeing him occupied with his phone, she leaned forward, took a snack, and munched on it.
She also took out her phone and noticed that Zachary had sent her a message: Mommy, are you not done with work yet?
Arissaâs lips curved into a smile as she typed in a reply.
Benjamin glanced at her. âDonât play with your phone if youâre eating.â
Her hand trembled, and the phone slid out of her grip, falling onto the floor.
She quickly bent down to pick it up.
Benjaminâs lips curved to form a small smile as she returned to her previous posture after picking up her phone.
âAre you nervous?â
Arissa turned to look at an expressionless Benjamin, unable to figure out what he was thinking.
âN-No, Iâm fine...â She smiled awkwardly.
Benjamin nodded and leaned forward to pour a glass of water before giving it to her.
âDo you think the person I sent will be able to pick up your kid?â he asked, his gaze piercing into her soul.
On the surface, she received the glass with both hands and politely muttered, âThank you.â However, in her mind, she was panicking.
âThank you for your concern, Mr. Graham, but my child is with my friend. How about you have the person you sent bring Gavin home instead?â
She felt Benjamin was being weird, but she just couldnât put a finger as to why.
Benjamin calmly replied, âMy son is with your kid.â
Uh...
She pretended to be shocked. âWhat a coincidence! Are they classmates? I didnât know that.â
He frowned at her fake expression and scoffed. What wonderful acting. Why isnât she honest with me after all that has happened?
âThey go to the same school,â Benjamin replied harshly as he tapped his forefinger on his thigh.
The sight of him was intimidating. Arissa couldnât help but gulp and bring the glass to her lips to take a sip.
Oh gosh, my heart is beating is so fast. He couldnât have found out, could he?
âHow did you know that, Mr. Graham?â
Benjaminâs eyes flickered upon that question, and he immediately glared at her. âArissa, just how long are you going to spin your lies?â
Her heart skipped a beat.
She did not know what to answer, as she wasnât sure what he was referring to.
âMr. Graham, I really do not know what you mean,â she said carefully, not wanting to upset him further.
âDo you not have anything else to say to me?â he asked through clenched teeth, seeing that she was still playing dumb.
âE-Excuse me?â
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 131 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You She wasnât sure if he had found out about the kids and didnât dare to bring it up to him first.
His expression darkened, and his aura turned cold.
She was sitting at the other end of the couch, thinking of what to say or do next.
His eyebrows knitted together, rage building up in him.
He hated seeing her being like this. Without saying a word, he got up and headed toward his study.
Arissa let out a breath that she didnât know she was holding. She calmed herself down by munching on a few more snacks and proceeded to call her son.
Zachary picked up the phone quickly.
âMommy, what time are you coming home?â
âUm...â Arissa felt guilty.
âSorry, Sweetheart. I canât go home yet. Iâm at Gavinâs house. Is Gavin with you all?â She asked in a low tone.
âYeah, weâre together. Mr. Hinton is here too. Mommy, why are you at Gavinâs house?â
âI canât explain it through the phone, but I got into some trouble.â She sighed. âSomeone is going to pick up Gavin later. Can you please do Mommy a favor and tell them that the rest of you are staying with Mr. Hinton?â
