    Chapter 973 Meal Together


    Darius was already waiting for Arissa and her family at the entrance by the time they arrived. William


    and a bunch of housekeepers were by his side.


    The woman was touched by the scene. It wasn’t the first time they visited the residence, yet Darius


    would always wait for them at the entrance.


    “Does Dad always wait for you all toe over like that in the past?” Arissa asked. Benjamin nced


    at her, lifting the corners of his lips. “He only does it for you!”


    She grinned as she carried the gift she had prepared beforehand. Dad treats me so nicely.


    Before the car even stopped, Jasper, who was sitting next to the door, rolled down the window, poked


    his head out, and greeted his grandfather. “Grandpa!”


    “Wee back!” Darius beamed as he stared at his grandchild. Oliver also stuck his head out of the


    window and shouted at the old man, “We’re all back, Grandpa!”


    “Good!” The old man’s wrinkles deepened as he smiled. Arissa reminded, “Sit tight!”


    Oliver and Jasper stuck their tongues out before returning to their seats. While the rest of the children


    didn’t squeeze their way toward the window, they did stretch their necks to gaze at the scene outside.


    As the vehicle slowed down, all the kids eagerly unbuckled their seatbelts, opened the door, and exited


    the car.


    Arissa was amused. “Slow down!”N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    “We missed you, Grandpa!” Jasper said sweetly and was the first to throw himself into Darius’ arms,


    followed by the rest of his siblings.


    Darius, William, and the housekeepers hugged the kids joyously.


    Benjamin and Arissa were delighted to witness that scene from the car.


    “Let’s join them!” he uttered before stepping out of the vehicle and opening the door for her.


    As she exited the car while holding the present, he held her waist, closed the door, and brought her


    over to Darius.


    “Dad!” Arissa greeted.


    “Dad!” Benjamin followed suit, but those who weren’t in the know would think he was the son-inw.


    Beaming, Darius weed them amicably, “I’m d you are all back. Come, let’s head inside! We’ll


    eat after you all wash your hands!”


    “This is for you, Dad!” Hastily, Arissa handed the present to him.


    His eyes lit up as he epted the gift. “You didn’t have to!”


    Despite his words, he was over the moon to receive it.


    “I must. This is the first gift I got for you as your daughter-inw.”


    “Very well, then. I shall ept your gift. Now, let’s head into the house!”


    When Darius nced at his son, he noticed thetter was answering a call.


    Hence, he frowned in response. “Why is he still talking on the phone when he’s back home for a meal?


    Come on, let’s go inside first.”


    He gestured for Arissa and her children to follow him in.


    ted to see their grandfather, the children surrounded him and chattered ceaselessly.


    The manor became livelier with their presence.


    Arissa glimpsed at Benjamin, who gestured for her to enter the building first when he met her gaze.


    “Wrap up your call as soon as possible!” she reminded in a low voice before striding into the house.


    Dinner was already prepared, and as soon as they stepped into the house, Darius prompted them to


    wash their hands first.


    Benjamin still hadn’te in even after Arissa and the children finished cleaning their hands.


    Thus, she nced at the entrance and stated, “I’m going to take a look at Benjamin, Dad!”


    “Ignore him. If he wants to make a call, then let him. Once he’s done, he’ll be back,” Darius uttered as


    he fetched soup for his grandchildren. “Have some soup first, Sweethearts! Take it easy, okay? Don’t


    burn yourself!”


    “Thank you, Grandpa!” The children expressed their gratitude in unison. Their adorable voices really


    enraptured him.
