Chapter 211 No Problems at All
Hayley''s POV:
Finished
I reached out and said, "Give me your phone. No more games until your calculus grade improves. If you make it onto the President''s List next time, then I''ll return it to you."
Henry furrowed his brows and thought for a moment. In the end, he handed the phone to me with resigned smile. "Here you go, Boss."
I smiled back and said. "Good boy. If you listen to me, you can y all the games you want after this. I won''t stop you again."
Henry didn''t say anything else.
We both headed downstairs, one after the other.
As soon as we reached the bottom, the maid spoke up. Mr. George has an engagement tonight, so he won''t be back for dinner. Mr. Tanner and Mr. Henry also mentioned they wouldn''t be home this evening."
I nodded in acknowledgment and walked into the dining room.
On the dining table, at the most prominent spot, was the dish I had been craving, wine-braised beef and fish soup.
A warm feeling spread through me, and I couldn''t help but smile, my lips curving into a pleased grin.
"Wow, wine-braised beef!" Henry quickly pulled out a chair and sat down, eagerly picking up the fork to try it.
Just then, Hera stirred excitedly inside me. I turned around and saw Benjamin suddenly appear from nowhere.
He frowned and scolded Henry in a low voice. "Henry!
At the sound of his voice, Henry immediately withdrew his hand and looked up at Benjamin, respectfully calling out, "Ben."
It was clear that Henry was somewhat intimidated by Benjamin.
Benjamin gave a brief nod before turning to me. The wine-braised beef and fish soup you like. Let''s see how it tastes."
Hearing this, Henry finally understood that the food was for me. He quickly pulled out my chair and said, "Boss, please, sit down."
I was surprised and touched that Benjamin had gone out of his way to prepare my favorite dishes.
Hera was absolutely thrilled, eximing, "No wonder he''s our destined mate! I knew he''d fall for you. eventually, even if you''ve been hiding your scent."
I smiled at herment and sat down.
After the maids had set all the dishes on the table, neither Benjamin nor Henry moved right away.

I took a bite, and the rich vors filled my mouth, the taste just as I remembered.
"It''s delicious. You should try it too."
Henry, unable to wait any longer, dug in immediately.
"Ben, these BBQ ribs are amazing"
"If
you like it, eat more," Benjamin said calmly.
The BBQ ribs were indeed delicious, though there was slight burnt taste.
I figured the chef must have gotten the heat wrong while cooking, but I didn''t think much of it.
After dinner, I went to the study and finished exining the problems to Henry. Just as I was about to leave, my phone in my pocket rang.
I pulled it out and saw it was my rm-Wednesday, the day I gave Benjamin anguage ss.
"Do you have all the problems figured out? Any more questions?"
Henry shook his head and
id, "No, it''s all good now."
Seeing that he was fine, I left the study.
Back in my room, I locked the door behind me and opened myptop.
As soon as I logged in, I saw that Benjamin was already online..
I couldn''t help but send him a message. "You''re on time
Benjamin responded with a simple grunt, then he immediately asked, "Let''s get started. What are we covering today?"
I was impressed by Benjamin''s learning ability. In just over a month, he had
almost mastered the sentences and grammar of Mormant.
Now, even simple conversations were no problem at all.
"Let''s do some situational dialogue today," I said, creating a context for him.
Benjamin was incredibly efficient with his learning. But today, he seemed a bit off.
As we continued, he suddenly asked, "Selena, why do I feel like you remind me of someone from my family?"
My heart stopped beating at that..
