Chapter 852 Meal With Benjamin

“I can eat by myself. You should eat with the children first!” Mary said. With a grin, Arissa

replied, “We’ll be taking them out for a meal soon, Grandaunt. I have plenty of time to

spend with them, so now I’m spending some with you.”

The old woman was delighted to hear that. She asked with a smile, “Are you having a meal

with Benjamin?”

“Mhm. So, we went to pick up the marriage certificate today, right? When Mr. Watts and

the others heard about that, they asked him to treat them to a meal. So we’ve decided to

eat together outside.” Arissa informed Mary about it in advance because they wouldn’t

have time to accompany her later.

Mary nodded with a smile. “One should invite friends out for a meal to share good news

like that. You don’t have to worry about me and just enjoy yourselves. Later, Edwin will

bring me food, and there are still other people in the hospital to look after me, so relax.”

Arissa nodded and ate some fruits with Mary while waiting for Benjamin to arrive. Before

the man came, Darius arrived with William.

The old man brought many supplements and also Mary’s dinner, which the help in Old

Manor prepared. “Old Mr. Graham…” Arissa greeted him. When the elderly man shot a

glare at her, she quickly changed how she addressed him. “Dad!”

“Don’t make a mistake when addressing me in the future, all right?” He smiled

brightly. Arissa nodded and took the food container in Darius’ hand. “Why did you bring so

much stuff with you?”

“It’s not that much. All of these are nourishing to the body. Since Mdm. Mary just had an

operation, she needs to recuperate.” Then, he asked William to put the items down in a

tidy manner.

Mary greeted the visitors, “It’s not necessary to bring so many things with you when

you’re visiting me. I can’t eat that much, anyway. Bring these things back with you when

you’re leaving later!”

“There aren’t actually that many things inside of these packages. They just look big on the

outside.” With a smirk, Darius approached the bed. “Are you feeling better?”

“Much better, thank you! You two should sit!”

“All right. You should rest. We’ll make ourselves at home.” Darius proceeded to exchange

pleasantries with her.

“Come here and eat some fruits, Grandpa!” the children called out to him.

That prompted the old man to approach the kids and hug them one by one. “Remember to

not make too much noise, all right? Otherwise, you’ll disturb your great-grandaunt’s rest!”

“We know!” The children nodded obediently.

Darius caressed their heads affectionately.

After Arissa placed Mary’s dinner on the nightstand, the latter reminded the former, “You

should tell Edwin that there’s no need for him to deliver food to me anymore.”

“We talked to Edwin when we were coming by earlier. He probably wouldn’t be delivering

food to you,” William informed.

“I think I should still give him a call and tell him that he doesn’t need to prepare dinner

today.” With a grin, Arissa quickly gave Edwin a call. “We’re going out for dinner tonight,

so there’s no need for you to prepare dinner, Edwin!”

Turning his head in Arissa’s direction, Darius asked, “You lot aren’t having dinner at

home?”

“We’re eating outside tonight, Grandpa!” Jasper uttered.

“We aren’t returning home to eat since Daddy’s treating us.” Gavin glanced at the old

man.

With a raised eyebrow, Darius asked curiously, “Your daddy’s treating you all?”

“That’s right!” Gavin nodded.

“He’s treating Mr. Watts and the others, too!” Zachary added.

Upon approaching Darius, Arissa said, “Benjamin’s treating Mr. Watts and the others to a

meal. We’ll be joining them instead of having dinner back home. You should come with us,

Dad!”

With a smirk, Darius rejected, “I won’t be joining you lot. An old man like me shouldn’t ruin

you youngsters’ gathering.”

“You won’t! Everyone there is going to be someone you already know.” Arissa smiled.

She knew everyone who would be having dinner together with them later, so that meant

Darius was familiar with them, too.

“No, no. We’ll have our meal back home. You all should go! Besides, if we’re around, you

youngsters won’t feel comfortable chatting with each other.”
