Chapter 1368 Inviting Arissa Out For A Meal


    After chatting with them for a while, Benjamin went to his study to work, leaving the others to rx in


    the living room.


    When Edwin was done preparing supper, Shaun went over to the study door and called out to


    Benjamin.


    “Benjamin, would you like some supper?”


    While enjoying his pae, Shaun nced over at Benjamin. He had to admit that Edwin''s seafood


    pae was delicious.


    Benjamin nced up at Shaun, the aroma of the pae wafting to his nose. “Pae?” he asked.


    “Yeah, Edwin''s seafood pae is incredibly delicious!” Shaun said, taking a few more bites. Anyone


    who didn''t know better would think he had missed dinner and had been starving for a while.

    “Are there any more left?” Benjamin asked again.


    Shaun nodded. “Yes. If you''re hungry, let me get you a te!”


    “No need!” Benjamin called Arissa. “Let me ask if Arissa wants some.”


    Shaun shot a yful nce at Benjamin, a smile gracing his lips as he teased, “Weren''t you the one


    who said Arissa was resting? She''s sleeping, and yet you want to rouse her for a meal?”


    Benjamin ignored him. He waited for a while before Arissa finally answered the phone. “What''s up?”


    As her voice sounded groggy, Benjamin arched a brow and asked softly, “Are you asleep?”


    “I''m feeling a little tired,” Arissa yawned. The children had bid her goodnight after their showers and


    retired to their respective rooms. Now left alone, she found herself bored and inclined to go to bed.


    “Do you want to eat pae?” Benjamin asked, worried that she might get hungry in the middle of the


    night.


    “Um...” Arissa hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Did you make that?”


    “No, it''s Edwin''s seafood pae!” Benjamin told her. Shaun chimed in, “There''s barbecued food too!”


    Benjamin red at him. Arissa heard him clearly. “I''m hungry, can you get me some? And some


    barbecued food too!”


    Benjamin responded in the affirmative before ending the call. He then rose from his seat and


    proceeded to exit the study. As he walked past Shaun, thetter promptly sidestepped to evade


    Benjamin''s prating gaze, offering an awkward chuckle in the process.


    “Arissa loves barbecued food, and it''s okay to indulge in it asionally. As long as it''s not food that''s


    harmful to pregnant women, she can eat whatever she likes. Maintaining a cheerful mood is of utmost


    importance!”


    As Benjamin approached the restaurant, Ethen, Jack, and Bradley were all seated there, feasting


    heartily. Upon seeing him, they hurriedly waved him over.


    “Mr. Graham...”


    “Enjoy the food!” Benjamin waved his hand. He proceeded to fetch a te, serving a portion of pae


    for Arissa before also selecting some barbecued items for her.


    “Is this for Mrs. Graham, Mr. Graham?” Edwin deduced from Benjamin''s demeanor that the food was


    likely intended for Arissa. He approached to lend a hand in carrying some of the dishes.


    “Yes!” Benjamin responded, carrying the food meant for one person upstairs.


    “Aren''t Gavin and the others eating?” Shaun nced at them as he sat down at the dining table. Ethen


    had gone to summon the children earlier.


    “The children have gone to bed!” Ethen chuckled. He had gone upstairs to get the children only to find


    that they were already asleep.


    “That was fast!” Shaun eximed in surprise.


    “They must be quite weary! Is there anything else you''d like to have? I''ll start preparing it immediately,”


    Edwin offered, with the intention of ensuring everything was ready before he proceeded to tidy up the


    kitchen.


    “That should be enough!” Shaun looked at the delicious food on the table, then nced at Ethen and


    the others.


    Jack and Bradley also nodded in agreement. There was no need for Edwin to prepare anything else.


    “These are enough!”


    “I''ll go clean up the kitchen then!” Edwin said with augh.


    “Edwin,e sit with us and have something to eat. We''ll help you clean upter!” Ethen beckoned


    Edwin. He even stood up to get some beer.


    During dinner, they still hadn''t had their fill.


    “Edwin,e have a drink with us!” Shaun, Jack, and Bradley beckoned. Thetter even stood up to


    pull Edwin to the table.


    Edwin was unable to decline their warm hospitality. He sat down to drink with them.


    “I''ll just have one drink. I have to get up at four in the morning tomorrow to make stew for Mrs.


    Graham!”


    “What stew are you making that requires you to begin so early...”


    They chatted and ate happily.
