Benjamin swept his gaze over Tim. “We’ll talk when you’re done eating.”

Tim hesitated for a moment before he continued eating.

“Are you hungry?”

She pinched the little girl’s cheeks indulgently.

In response, Jesse nodded.

“Yup! I’m hungry, Mommy!”

“Wait for a while. I’ll order some food up!”

Arissa then phoned the suite’s housekeeper and ordered some food to be delivered to the room.

The five children were ecstatic, cheering, “Yay! We’re having supper!”
