You More Than Anything In The World
Chapter 584

"Bad Influence!" Zachary commented.

The edge of Benjamin's mouth twitched.

"It's bad to waste food!" Gavin uttered.

Oliver and Jasper stared at their father with disdain.

Even Jesse let out a "Hmph!"

Benjamin rubbed his nose. "My appetite isn't that good today!"

No one believed him.

Arissa continued to eat speechlessly.

Kingsley and the others were eating at the table next to Benjamin, so they joked about him.

"You need to get rid of your picky habit, Benjamin. Otherwise, your children will grow up like you. You don't want that, because wasting food is bad!"

"Shut it!" Benjamin rolled his eyes.

Kingsley zipped his mouth.

Shaun, Bradley, and Ethen exchanged a glance and stifled their laughter.

Arissa ignored them and, upon seeing her children almost finishing their meals, asked, "Are you all full, Sweethearts?"

The children nodded.

Jesse wiped the sauce on the edge of his lips away. "I'll be full when I finished, Mommy!"

Jasper nodded. "Me too!"

Oliver pushed his glasses upward as it was getting foggy. "I'm not eating anymore!"

Zachary said, "This is enough for me, Mommy!"

Gavin uttered, "I'm full too!"

Tim swallowed his food before saying, "I'm not done eating yet, Ms. York!"

"It's all right! Take your time."

Arissa patted his head lovingly.

Seeing how everyone was about to finish, he increased his eating speed and chewed rapidly.

Arissa held her chin up with her arms and stared at the children with a wide smile.

When she felt a searing gaze settling on her, she turned and met Benjamin's dark eyes.

Her heart thumped, her eyes blinked, and her line of sight shifted away. Even so, she could feel him still staring at her.

Thus, she turned back again to gaze at him. "What are you looking at me for?"

Benjamin smiled and wiped the watermelon seed on her forehead away.

Her face was instantly flushed with embarrassment. How did that watermelon seed get to my forehead? This is so embarrassing.

"Look at how you're eating. You should be more careful!" he teased.

Arissa pouted and shot a glare at him. "It's just one seed!"

He chuckled.

Her cheeks remained red for quite a bit.

The children stifled their laughter when they saw that.

She lowered her head awkwardly. "Drink your soup!"

The children smiled and drank their soups.

"Mommy, this soup taste like water!" Jasper complained.

"You should be glad you get to drink! Stop nitpicking," she replied humorously.

Benjamin gazed at her. "He's right. This soup does taste like water!"

Arissa was speechless.

After the meal was over, they returned to the ward. Mary had finished her meal with the help of the nurses.

They accompanied her for a while before she fell asleep.

Then Arissa brought the children to the lounge for them to nap.

"Ms. York!" Ethen shouted.

It prompted her to exit the room quickly and closed the door partially. "What's wrong?"

He looked at her, unsure of what to do. "You should go to Mr. Graham. He doesn't want to eat his medicine!"

"Eh?" She was stunned. "What medicine is he eating?"

Ethen sighed and replied, "His stomach is acting up again!"

Arissa furrowed her eyebrows and shut the door completely. "It's probably because he didn't finish his lunch!"

Benjamin only ate five mouthfuls of it before he gave the rest away to Tim.

She headed to his temporary office. "Buy some food for him! Something soft!"

"Okay!" Ethen happily left to buy food for his employer.

When she arrived at Benjamin's office, she saw him reading documents while his hand rested on his stomach.

She approached him and took his documents away.
