Chapter 421 Threatened By His Son

In the end, Gavin had no choice but to bring snacks to Benjamin by himself.

He stopped by their bedroom to take a peep but did not see his father. He then went to the master bedroom.

When he noticed Benjamin was in the master bedroom, Gavin intentionally walked toward him in heavy steps. "Mommy told me to bring you this."

Benjamin froze for a minute and took a glance at his son.

Gavin's face flushed instantly. He felt awkward and avoided making eye contact with his father.

Benjamin's eyes glinted. He reached out his hand to touch Gavin's forehead.

That unexpected move rendered Gavin speechless.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" Benjamin expressed his concern in a much gentler voice.

Gavin shook his head. "No. I'm okay now. Remember to eat the snacks. I'll be going downstairs now. Bye."

Just when he was about to the leave the room, he heard Benjamin say, "Ask your mommy to bring snacks over next time."

Gavin turned around, frowned, and replied with a snort, "Stop asking Mommy to do all these trivial tasks for you! She's not feeling well!" Benjamin could not help but feel jealous when the son he single-handedly brought up was so protective of Arissa.

Gavin snorted again and ran downstairs.

Benjamin raised his brows and glanced at the snacks his son brought. He carried the plate over and took a few bites of the snacks. Meanwhile, Arissa froze for a second when she saw Gavin running down the stairs huffing in frustration.

What's wrong with the father and son again?

"Come here, Sweetheart!" Arissa looked in his direction.

Gavin ran toward her. "Mommy!"

Arissa embraced him and gently pinched his puffy cheeks. "What's wrong?"

"Mommy! Daddy wants you to bring food for him. He keeps asking for you to serve him. He's too much!" A towering rage blazed in Gavin's big round eyes.

Arissa was touched to see how much her son cared for her.

She carried him in her arms and gave his forehead a gentle peck.

"Don't get mad, Sweetheart. Mommy's the one who decided to work here anyway," she comforted Gavin.

"But he's bullying you!" Somehow, the boy firmly believed that Benjamin was giving her a hard time.

Arissa felt loved. "It's okay. It's not a big problem for me. Besides, your daddy would occasionally show that he cares about me too, right?" Gavin continued to pout.

Zachary glanced at his brother, thinking that what he said made sense. "But Mr. Graham didn't show his care as often as how he bullied you!"

Arissa almost choked on her saliva. Since Benjamin did not know her well in the first place, it was not unusual for him to treat her differently from time to time. "Well, no matter what, he's still your daddy. So let's not talk about this anymore. All right, kids. Go and have some fun, okay? I have to make a call." Just when Arissa was about to head upstairs to take her phone, Zachary got ahead of her. "I'll get it for you, Mommy!"

Arissa grinned and waited downstairs for him.

Zachary ran upstairs and sneaked a glance at Benjamin, who was still in the master bedroom.

He said, "Mr. Graham, I'm coming in to take my mommy's phone!"

Benjamin looked at the boy and grunted his approval.

Zachary ran into the room. After replaceing the phone, he grabbed it and was ready to leave.

Before leaving, he even threatened Benjamin, "Mr. Graham, if you dare order my mommy to work nonstop, we'll move out right away." Zachary's threat left Benjamin speechless.

By the time he turned around, the boy had already run out of the room.

Benjamin knitted his brows. Why is everyone so protective of her? Ugh!

Benjamin packed his things and went to his study. He walked past the living room but did not see Arissa.

He took a sidelong glance around the house. "Where's your mommy?"

The five children who were sitting by the coffee table tilted their heads to look at Benjamin.

"Mommy went out to make a call," Jesse said softly.

Benjamin looked out of the house. After seeing Arissa standing by the door, he returned to his study.

The moment Benjamin entered his study, Jesse immediately asked her brothers. "How did the investigation go?"
