Chapter 296 What Do You Dislike
Arissa’s heart skipped a beat when they accidentally made eye contact.
Despite averting her gaze, her heart pounded even faster.
“Are you worried about me?”
As Benjamin’s magnetic voice rang out, it rumbled through her ears with a tingling sensation.
Giggling, Arissa stared at him. “I am.”
Benjamin’s smile widened while the look in his eyes grew more intense.
After sneaking a couple of glances at him, Arissa blushed. “You should relax and continue once you
have recovered.”
Raising his brows, Benjamin took a sip of water.
Arissa served him some snacks. “What would you like for dinner?”
Having finished the snack, Benjamin replied, “Cook something delicious for me!”
Arissa stared at him. What kind of answer is that?

Benjamin shot her a glance. “Just ask Edwin.”
Arissa was speechless.
“Why are you telling me to ask someone else about your preference? I might as well cook Edwin’s
favorite dishes.”
Benjamin’s gaze darkened. “Anything is fine as long as it isn’t spicy.”
When Arissa saw his grumpy expression, she beamed. “Didn’t you eat spicy food previously?”
He had consumed a lot of spicy food at the holiday home.
Having been reminded of it, Benjamin’s expression darkened.
After returning from the trip, his stomach felt terrible until this very day.
When she saw how Benjamin was glaring at her, she promised, “Fine. I won’t make it spicy.
Nevertheless, you still have to tell me what your favorite food is.”
“Mushroom chicken and poached fish.” Benjamin gave her a look.
Arissa nodded in acknowledgment. “I’ll check with Edwin if there’s any fish available.”
When she turned and left, Benjamin watched her go.
Smiling subconsciously, he continued consuming his snacks.
After confirming with Edwin that all the ingredients she needed were available, Arissa’s mind was put at
ease.
Subsequently, she went to the living room and asked the children, “Kids, what would you like for
dinner? I’ll be cooking tonight.”
“Wow! Mommy, can you steam some eggs?”
Jesse ran up to her and hugged her thigh.
Tousling her hair, Arissa replied, “Of course!”
After all, steaming eggs were easy.
“Mommy, I want to have fish!” Jasper raised his hand.
Arissa chuckled. “It’s already on the menu.”
Zachary’s eye lit up. “Mommy, tell us what else are you making, and we can add on to it!”
“Mushroom chicken, fish, and steam eggs!”
Beaming at Gavin, Zachary, and Oliver, Arissa asked, “What would the three of you like to have?”
“We enjoy anything you cook. Therefore, you can decide,” Gavin answered with a smile.
Touched by his response, Arissa asked her son again, “Is there anything special that you like? Since
it’s still early, I have time to prepare them.”
Gavin pondered a moment. “I would like some hot lasagna.”
Although it was a spicy dish, Arissa decided to make it for the children still. As for Benjamin, he would

Zachary added, “Mommy, I would like to have some steak!”
Oliver chimed in, “Mommy, I want some roast chicken!”
After Gavin placed his order, the brothers didn’t want to be left out.
Arissa nodded. “Together with one vegetable, we’ll have a total of seven dishes.”
She turned to look at Kingsley. “Mr. Watts, what would you like to have?”
“All the dishes sound tantalizing. There’s no need for me to add to them. I’ll just have what everyone is
having.”
Kingsley didn’t dare order anything for fear that Benjamin wouldn’t allow him to come over for food
anymore.
“All right then, I’ll cook all these for dinner. You guys can go on out to play.”
Arissa sent Edwin out to buy some roast chicken before retrieving all the ingredients she needed.
After playing with Kingsley for a while, the five children skipped over to help her.
“Mommy, we’re here to assist you.”
Arissa grinned at the children. “There’s no need for you to help. You guys should just go play.”
After all, the children didn’t know how to clean the fish and chicken. As for the vegetables and
mushrooms, those didn’t take much work.
