Chapter 103 Benjamin Came Knocking

“Sweethearts! It’s time for dinner.”

Arissa called out to her five children so that they could wash their hands before they eat.

“Wow! Mommy has prepared us a feast!”

Standing on tiptoe, Jesse scanned the dishes on the table as she savored the aroma.

Arissa chuckled at the sight. “Go on. Wash your hands.”

“Hehe.” With that, Jesse hurriedly did as she was told.

Arissa went into the kitchen and brought out the last item on the menu, which happened to be the soup.

She served her kids one bowl of soup each.

The children got to the table.

Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse took their seats.

“Mommy, can I sit with you?” Gavin asked, looking at Arissa in eager anticipation.

She smiled. “Okay. Come here.”

As Arissa placed the fifth bowl of soup in front of Gavin, she reminded all five of them, “Be careful. It’s

hot.”

The five kids remained in their seats obediently as they waited for their mother to serve her own portion.

After that, Arissa sat down and said, “Bon Appetit!”

The five kids smiled happily and repeated the phrase, “Bon Appetit!”

Arissa beamed as she looked at her children.

“Mommy, you’ve made a lot of delicious food. Is it for him?”

Jasper took a sip of the soup and cast a curious look at Arissa before shifting his sight toward Gavin.

Running her fingers over Gavin’s hair, Arissa smiled at her three sons sitting opposite her. “It’s for

everyone. Well, seeing that it’s Gavin’s first time here, of course I have to make more.”

Zachary and Oliver chuckled. “Mommy, Gavin isn’t-”

Realizing that they had slipped up, the two immediately covered their mouths with both hands at the

same time.

“Isn’t… what?”

Arissa narrowed her eyes as she scrutinized the secretive trio.

She turned to innocent little Jesse beside her. She seemed to know nothing as she drank the soup

without a care in the world.

Gavin snickered.

“Mommy, the soup tastes good!”

“I’m glad you like it. You can have more.”

Taking his empty bowl, Arissa got him a second serving.

“Take it slowly. It’s still hot.”

“Okay. Thanks, Mommy.”

Gavin nodded as he dug in with delight. Mommy’s cooking is wonderful!

Arissa caressed his head and filled his plate with more food.

“Have some of these. Which one is your favorite? I can make more for you next time.”

“Mommy, your cooking is the best! I like all of them!”

The trio sitting opposite smirked upon witnessing Gavin buttering their mother up.

Well, well. Look at that. Gavin’s usually acts cool, yet he becomes so affectionate in front of Mommy.

Arissa grinned, gave Gavin a hug, and kissed him on the cheek.

“Thank you, Sweetheart.”

Gavin blushed. When he locked eyes with the trio, he quickly lowered his head as he ate.

“Come on. All of you, dig in.”

With that, Arissa served the other four kids with food.

“Thank you, Mommy.”

The four children expressed their gratitude. They loved to be spoiled.

“This one is nice. I like it!”

“Mommy, the steak tastes great!”

“Mommy, the chicken is delicious!”

“I like everything you cook, Mommy.”

As the five children devoured the food, Arissa’s smile broadened.

“Help yourself to the food, then. Go on. Eat them all up.”

“Sure!” The children nodded.

Amid the excitement, the doorbell rang.

“I’ll get it.”

Arissa walked over to the door. Bradley must have come to visit.

When she opened it, the visitor was not who she expected. Panicked, she slammed the door as her

heart raced.

Oh my gosh! Why is Benjamin here?

Her mouth twitched as she gazed at the children sitting at the dining table.

Oh! How could I forget that Gavin’s here?

“Open the door!” Benjamin’s loud voice sounded from outside the door, sending a chill down Arissa’s

spine.
