Chapter 889 On Your Wedding Day
Jasper looked at Benjamin. “Is Mommy sleeping in again?”
“Yes!” Benjamin responded before bringing them down the stairs. Gavin’s eyes gleamed, and he shot a glance at his father. “Daddy, did you drink a lot last night?”
Benjamin was stunned momentarily. “What makes you say that?” he inquired, staring at him. “You reek of alcohol!” Gavin grumbled in disdain.
At that, the man lowered his head to take a sniff of himself. I don’t smell anything. “I showered just now!” Benjamin protested. Gavin’s eyes lit up instantly. “Are you saying that you didn’t shower last night?”
Benjamin fell silent. I fell asleep last night, so how could I have showered? Besides, I was busy this morning…
Upon meeting his son’s sparkling eyes, he pinched his cheek. “Yes! I fell asleep last night!” Gavin sighed and said, “Doesn’t that mean Mommy had to endure the smell throughout the night? No wonder she’s sleeping in!”
Nodding, Oliver concurred, “Mommy must’ve had a bad night’s sleep because of that!” The boy even shot a look of disapproval to Benjamin and added, “Mr. Graham, you must shower before going to bed from now on. Otherwise, you’ll stink!”
Jesse pinched her nose and chimed in, “That’s right! You’ll stink!” Having been disdained by the kids, Benjamin hurriedly promised, “From now on, I’ll shower before going to bed.”
He quickly caved in because he knew he had too much to drink the night before. Usually, when he went out for drinks, the first thing he would do upon returning home was to take a shower.
It was simply because he could not stand the stench. However, he drank at home the previous night, not to mention with Kingsley and the rest. That was why his germaphobia was not triggered.
Benjamin and the six children walked down the stairs. It was a heartwarming scene to behold. Darius, who was reading the newspaper on the couch in the living room, beamed lovingly when he saw them walking down the stairs.
With his eyes crinkling, he beckoned to the children. “You guys are up! Come over and let me hug you!”
The kids ran to him at once. “Good morning, Grandpa!” “Good morning!” Darius hugged them and pecked them on their cheeks dotingly.
In a caring tone, he asked, “Did you guys sleep well last night?”
“Yes!” The kids nodded. Right then, Benjamin approached Darius and greeted, “Dad!”
“Hey!” The latter glanced at him and looked upstairs. “Is Issa not up yet?”
Darius sized Benjamin up. Noticing that the latter had a good complexion, he asked smilingly, “You aren’t suffering from a hangover, are you?”
“No.” Benjamin swept a glance at his father.
“Although you’re young, you still have to watch out,” Darius exhorted.
Hearing that, the children looked at Benjamin and Darius puzzledly. What are Daddy and Grandpa talking about?
“Okay. Let’s dig in!” Benjamin responded and started eating his meal calmly.
All of a sudden, the decoration of the master bedroom recalled to him, so he paused and tilted his head to look at Darius.
“The room is nicely decorated!” he remarked.
Overjoyed, Darius beamed and exclaimed, “It’s going to be a lot better on your wedding day!”
Edwin was filled with anticipation as well. Mr. Graham is finally married.
