Chapter 326 Why Are You Not Answering

Since Benjamin forbade them from speaking, no one dared to utter a word, for fear of missing out on breakfast.

As for the children, they obediently ate their food while sitting beside Arissa. None of them interrupted the adults.

“Hmm?” Benjamin grunted with furrowed brows when Arissa didn’t respond.

Arissa glimpsed at him. “What is it?”

“I’m asking you a question, why aren’t you replying?” Benjamin demanded.

After taking a bite of her food, Arissa replied, “Didn’t you forbid everyone from speaking at the table?”

Benjamin choked as an awkward expression descended on his face.

Having gotten back at him, Arissa sniggered under her breath.

At the same time, everyone else smiled to themselves.

Nevertheless, Benjamin continued with breakfast calmly.

While everyone was busy eating, Shaun arrived suddenly.

“I’m surprised to see all of you here. Even Kingsley’s here. And Jack, when did you come back?”

Jack replied enthusiastically, “A few days ago, Mr. Bailey!”

Chuckling, Shaun took his seat opposite Benjamin.

“I haven’t had my breakfast yet. You wouldn’t mind if I join in, would you?”

Arissa was amused. Luckily, she had prepared extra, or else it wouldn’t have been enough.

In response, Benjamin shot a piercing gaze at him.

At the same time, Edwin broke into a smile and quickly served Shaun some food.

“Mr. Bailey, I can only give you half a serving, as the rest are reserved for the children.”

Concerned for the children, Edwin refilled all of their bowls.

“Don’t worry about it. I’ll have something else.”

Cognizant that he was late, Shaun knew it would be rude to make any requests.

After taking a look at the dining table, Edwin went off to prepare more food.

“So, Benjamin, do you feel better today?” Shaun inquired about Benjamin’s allergy symptoms.

“I don’t feel anything from it,” Benjamin replied.

“Has the rashes on your body receded?” Shaun asked again.

Arissa looked in Benjamin’s direction too. Given that she was too distracted by his figure earlier, she had forgotten to check on the rashes.

Thus, she had no idea whether he had completely healed.

Benjamin glanced in her direction before returning his attention to Shaun.

“There’s still a little left.”

After observing that Benjamin was in high spirits, Shaun was no longer worried about a relapse.

“Remember to take your medication. Or, if you’d like, I could give you another jab. However, too many jabs might cause you to feel drowsy.”

Shaun then reminded, “Don’t forget to apply the medication too!”

Benjamin nodded slightly. “I’ll do it in a while.”

As the children stared at Benjamin, Jasper was the first to speak out.

“Mr. Graham, aren’t you fully recovered? Why do you still need to apply the medication?”

He had just seen that the rashes on Benjamin’s body had almost faded away. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Hence, he reckoned there was no need for the medication at all.

Benjamin gave him the side-eye and cooked up an excuse. “It’s still a little itchy.”

Hearing that, Jack and Ethen gave him a strange look. They were surprised that Benjamin was actually bothered by the itch.

Glancing at Benjamin, Arissa added, “To be safe, you should take and apply one more days’ worth of medication.”

“Got it,” Benjamin acknowledged.

When Shaun and the others heard it, they gave Benjamin a look of surprise.

That’s obedient of him!

When Arissa noticed everyone’s gaze shifting to her, she gave them a puzzled look in return.

Kingsley teased, “It seems your words carry a lot of weight. Usually, he refuses to take any medication even when he has the flu.”

Arissa giggled. “Is that so?”

“Kingsley, you’d better shut up if you don’t have anything good to say,” Benjamin warned.

Kingsley pursed his lips in response.

He is obviously biased against me since he doesn’t admonish Shaun for saying just as much.

Ignoring what the men were discussing, Arissa continued to feed the children their breakfast.

“Go ahead and eat your fill. I’ll be sending you to school in a short while.”

“All right!”
