Curtis froze slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Benjamin, asking in confusion, "You mean..."
Benjamin gave him an indifferent look and interrupted directly without waiting for him to speak, "Yes, just do it."
Curtis nodded and pulled away from Benjamin. Immediately afterward, he made a phone call. After it was answered, he briefly stated the contents, arranged it, and hurriedly followed Benjamin into the elevator together. Benjamin was staying on the twenty-ninth floor of the Mayby International Hotel, and it was his exclusive suite at the hotel. It was fully furnished, and Mina, who had helped cook at the apartment, had come over to help him prepare dinner. He and Curtis had dinner together. There had been more things going on in the past two days and Curtis was staying at the hotel with him.
They were eating when Curtis' cell phone rang.
Looking at the display on the screen, he instantly frowned and subconsciously looked at Benjamin sitting across from him.
Benjamin noticed Curtis's expression and asked blandly, "What's the problem?"
"It's a call from the villa, and it's supposed to have something to do with Mrs. Martin."
"Answer it."
Benjamin's posture and demeanor at dinner was elegant, but it didn't look effeminate. Instead, it seemed to have an innate reserved elegance. Curtis immediately tapped the answer button and pressed speaker.
It was Mina's voice. She said, "Is that Mr. Yost?"
"Yes, Mrs. Martin, what can I do for you?"
"Mr. Yost, Mrs. Martin has little appetite, and she nearly fainted just now. Is she lacking nutrients due to eating less?"
Mina asked carefully. She was found
by Curtis and had been cleaning the villa, and she was told to take care of Harper two days ago, so she had to be careful and watch out for everything. She was afraid that if she did something wrong and hurt Harper and the baby, she would be in big trouble.
So Mina was terrified and a little scared.
Curtis subconsciously looked at Benjamin, who had no expression on his face, except for his eyes, which clearly revealed displeasure.
Curtis responded hastily, "Mina,
doesn't Mrs. Martin like the food you
make? You can change to other
flavors and try to get her to eat more. She's pregnant now, it's important for her to get the nutrition, and her health is the most important thing, so please take care of her."
"Mr. Yost, I'm doing my best, and I don't know if Mrs. Martin isn't used to eating my cooking. Was she supposed to have a regular maid to cook for her before? Can you let me learn from her?" Mina asked softly.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Curtis didn't respond right away and looked at Benjamin. There was curiosity in his eyes, as if he were saying, "Mr. Martin, what do you think?"
Benjamin narrowed his eyes lightly, put down his fork, and shook his head to indicate his rejection.
He didn't go on eating. He simply got up and left the table, walking from the dining room to the hall outside.
Curtis replied to Mina as he intended, "Mina, I need to ask Mr. Martin. Until Mr. Martin agrees, I hope you will still take good care of Mrs. Martin."
Mina seemed a little lost, but she finally agreed and finished the call.
Mina handed the phone to the bodyguard and turned to go back inside.
She walked to the living room and looked at Harper sitting on the sofa and shook her head. "Mr. Yost didn't say yes, and he said he would ask Mr. Martin."
Harper showed a slight smile, not putting too much pressure on Mina. "It's okay. Mina, you did the best you could, and thank you for being willing to help me."
"Don't mind it, just lifted a finger,
but there's no conflict between a husband and wife overnight. Besides, you're pregnant now, and he won't get angry with you even if he's upset, so you don't have to take it to heart. You'll be fine in a couple of days."
Mina whispered soothingly and Harper just nodded. Mina added hurriedly, "Mrs. Martin, don't blame me for talking too much."
"How could it be? You were quite right in what you said, and maybe he'll be okay when he gets over his anger."
