Avrissa hurried back up.

Edwin looked on with amusement before returning to the

kitchen to make coffee for Benjamin and his guests.

Kingsley, who still hadn't left, was in the study together with

Shaun. Both of them were watching Benjamin busy himself

with work.

Ethen and Jack were updating Benjamin on the latest.

Once they were done with their reports, they began a small-

scale meeting.

Shaun and Kingsley, on the other hand, were sipping coffee by

the side.

After the meeting, Benjamin furrowed his brows when he saw

that both of them were still around.

He instructed Ethen, “Get Jonathan to see me tomorrow.”

Ethen nodded. “Mr. Graham, do you want Mr. Patterson to

come here or go to the office?”

Benjamin remembered that he needed to take Mary to the

hospital in the morning. Hence, he answered, “The office.”

“All right.” Ethen nodded. “Mr. Graham, is there anything

else?”

Benjamin threw Ethen a glance. “You should go back and rest.

‘You can come in later tomorrow.”

Ethen was elated by the news.

“Thank you!”

Ethen said to Jack, “Let's go.”

“Mr. Graham, I'll be off, then,” Jack informed Benjamin, who

nodded in acknowledgment.

Before they 1%, they asked Kingsley, “Mr. Watts, aren't you

going home?”

“You guys go ahead.” Kingsley waved with a smile. He wasn't

in a hurry.

After bidding Edwin farewell, Ethen and Jack went off.

“Benjamin, now that you're done with work, let's have some

coffee.” Kingsley poured Benjamin a cup.

Benjamin walked over and said to Shaun, “You should make

the arrangements now so that Grandaunt doesn't need to wait

when she goes over tomorrow for her checkup.”

Shaun nodded, cognizant that Benjamin was grateful to Mary.

Nevertheless, it was still rare to see him care so much about

someone.

“I've given the instructions. I'll also be there early tomorrow

morning to make the preparations.”

Benjamin nodded, then swept his gaze at Kingsley. “Aren't you

gonna go home?”

Unsure of how to react, Kingsley teased, “Benjamin, why do

you keep targeting me?”

Benjamin snorted. “Stop bothering me!”

He got to his feet, returned to his desk, and got back to work.

Shaun and Kingsley exchanged smiling glances and remained

in the room.

“Shall | bunk with you tonight? I'm lazy to go home,” Kingsley

suggested to Shaun softly.

Shaun chuckled. “You'd better discuss it with Benjamin.”

Kingsley rolled his eyes. “There's no such need at all.”

Finishing his coffee, Kingsley got to his feet and declared,

“Benjamin, I'm going back now. Good night.”

Benjamin shot him a glance. “Don't disturb the children.”

Kingsley bol: into a sheepish smile and waved his hands.

“Good night!”

He left the study. Once he was sure the coast was clear, he

swiftly tip-toed upstairs.

He slipped into the children's room for a while before going

into the guest room where Shaun would be staying in.

‘When Shaun returned and saw that Kingsley was in there, he

grimaced.

“Kingsley, if you snore, I'm going to kick you out!”

Kingsley cracked a mischievous smile. “This isn't your house!”

Shaun rolled his eyes at him before heading into the

bathroom.

However, someone beat him to it.

Kingsley had dashed into it first. “I'l bathe first. | don't mind if

you want to join me.”

Shaun's lips twitched. “Be quick!”

Given how eccentric he is, he might even take a photo of us if

we did bathe together.

Kingsley laughed wryly. “Right away!”

By the time Benjamin finished work and checked the time, he

realized it was already late.

He got up and headed upstairs.

“Mr. Graham,” the housekeeper greeted him when he passed

by Mary's room.

Benjamin nodded. “Let us know if there's anything.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham,” the housekeeper acknowledged.

Upstairs, Benjamin went into the children's room and made

sure they were tucked in before returning to the master

bedroom.

Seeing that Arissa was asleep, he didn't turn on the lights.

He trod lightly toward the wardrobe, took his towel, and went

to use the bathroom in Arissa’s old room.
