Chapter 843 A Wedding Feast
“Please enjoy your food, Mrs. Graham. Don’t mind me,” Edwin said as he placed the food he had brought on the coffee table. “Edwin, there’s so much food! We can’t finish all of this!” Arissa said while smiling.
“Should I give some to Mr. Bailey, then?” Edwin asked while looking at Benjamin. After Benjamin nodded at him, Edwin quickly took some food for Shaun. “You two should continue eating!”
Edwin knew that he should give them some space. Arissa was stunned by how quickly Edwin left the room. “What are you staring into space for? Eat up,” Benjamin reminded in a gentle voice after he looked at the dumbfounded Arissa.
After she regained her senses, she sat down and continued eating. As she ate, she muttered, “Why was Edwin scrambling out of the room?”
Benjamin glanced at her. “He doesn’t want to disturb us.” Arissa felt awkward after she glanced at him and saw his smiling eyes. Then, she averted her eyes away from him and quickly dug in.
Their first meal together after being officially married was in a hospital. Despite being in the hospital, it was still heartwarming. Benjamin would place some food on Arissa’s plate occasionally, and she did the same.
Benjamin, who used to think food taken by others was unsanitary, didn’t mind it at all when Arissa put some food on his plate. He was in an excellent mood, given how happy he enjoyed the food.
The couple was almost full when Kingsley reached the hospital in a hurry. However, there was still a lot of food left. He looked at Benjamin and Arissa before teasing them, “That’s so much food! How dare you two hide in the hospital and enjoy such a feast!”
Benjamin furrowed his brows a little as he glared at Kingsley. “Why are you here?”
Kingsley glanced at Benjamin and chuckled. “I’m here to visit Mdm. Mary!”
Benjamin looked at Kingsley, who didn’t bring anything. “You’re planning to visit Grandaunt empty-handed?” Instead of visiting Mary, it seemed like Kingsley was there to see Benjamin and Arissa.
Kingsley laughed out loud, brushing off his friend’s disapproving look. “Haha! I forgot. I’ll bring something for her next time!”
Arissa chuckled. “Milly from Old Manor and Edwin brought these. Mr. Watts, you can have some if you haven’t eaten. That is, if you don’t mind.”
The next moment, he sat down, took a fork, and started eating. “Not at all! This tastes really good! Is this a congratulatory feast by Edwin and the rest from Old Manor?”
Arissa just smiled wordlessly. “Why are you still talking so much when your mouth’s stuffed with food? Focus on eating, would you? Grandaunt’s still sleeping!” Benjamin warned.
Instantly, Kingsley zipped his mouth and ate. However, he kept glancing between Mary and the couple.
They’re really a match made in heaven! Benjamin’s handsome, and Arissa’s so beautiful. They’re so fine! Wait. That’s not the right word for it. Ah! They are the perfect couple! What an extraordinary view! The sight of the two of them sitting together is truly pleasing to the eyes!
Kingsley kept staring at Benjamin and Arissa without blinking.
Arissa noticed his stare and thought it was funny. “Why are you staring at us like that?”
Kingsley chuckled and sneaked a glance at Benjamin.
Benjamin, on the other hand, glared at Kingsley. Why is this guy so annoying?
“Kingsley, if you want to eat, eat quietly. Why are you looking here and there?” he warned in a low voice.
Kingsley swallowed the food he was chewing and replied, “Boss, I just thought that you and Arissa look perfect together! The two of you are such a gorgeous couple that I can’t stop myself from looking! Are you going to get jealous over this too?”
“Hmph! Just eat!” Benjamin scoffed. He wasn’t angry at all. On the contrary, he was delighted.
“Okay!” Kingsley nodded and finally focused on eating.
Then, Benjamin passed a bowl of soup to Arissa. “Here, drink this!”
She glanced at it. “That’s too much! I can’t finish it!”
“Drink it slowly.”
He shot her a meaningful glance. It was obvious that he wasn’t taking no for an answer.
She laughed as she took the bowl and started drinking.
At that moment, Mary woke up.
