Chapter 251 Are You Afraid Of Grandpa

“But…” Arissa still had the ointment in her hand as she looked at the man that just changed his mind.

Nevertheless, Benjamin did not want her to notice any oddities, so he said, “Be quiet! I’m going to take a nap!”

Arissa puckered her lips.

What a temperamental guy. So be it then. It’s your body, after all. I won’t feel bad for you.

Thus, Arissa turned around and went to the bathroom.

When she got out, she noticed that Benjamin had closed his eyes. She was not sure whether he was asleep. Then, she touched her stomach.

Even though she had some soup not long ago, she was still quite hungry, so she silently went for the door.

However, as soon as she placed her hand on the door, she heard the man’s voice.

“Where are you going?”

Arissa froze for a moment and turned to look at the man with his back to her.

Does he have eyes at the back of his head?

“You said you wanted to sleep, right? So I thought I’d go out and get something to eat.”

Then, Benjamin turned around and stared right into her soul. “Call the guards to come in.”

Arissa did not know what he wanted to do but still opened the door and asked the bodyguards to come in.

“Mr. Graham,” they greeted.

Benjamin shot a glance at them and said, “Go ask Drawbridge Dining to make some food and send it over here!”

“Yes, sir!” The went out immediately after.

Arissa was taken aback by what she heard as her heart stirred.

She was about to say something, but Benjamin cut her off. “Come here!”

Arissa looked at him and was willing to look past his commanding tone, seeing that he had ordered food for her.

Hence, she closed the door and went over to Benjamin. “What is it?”

“I have an itch on my shoulder. Help me sooth it,” he said as he turned around.

So, Arissa placed her hand on Benjamin’s shoulder and started scratching.

“Higher!”

“Here?”

She adjusted the position and continued.

“Harder!”

Benjamin knitted his brows as it got itchier the more Arissa scratched.

Following Benjamin’s instruction, Arissa applied a bit more force.

Benjamin’s shoulder was rather stiff, but he had a higher body temperature than Arissa, so it felt warm to her touch.

And as she scratched, Arissa’s eyes began to wander downward.

The curves and lines on the man’s back were immaculate and brimming with power.

Arissa gulped as she was unknowingly being attracted to the man.

That said, she quickly snapped out of it and focused her attention back on her current task.

And after a while, Benjamin actually fell asleep, probably because of how comfortable it was.

Hearing the man’s long steady breathe, Arissa took a peek to make sure before she carefully pulled the blanket over Benjamin.

At that moment, Benjamin’s phone suddenly rang, so Arissa took his phone and saw that it was Darius calling.

She suddenly got thrown between a rock and a hard place as she did not know whether to pick up or not.

Then, she looked at Benjamin. And as soon as a single crease appeared on his forehead, she immediately denied the call.

Let’s just let him sleep for a little.

On the other end of the line, Darius was infuriated to see that Benjamin had denied his call.

“You little bast*rd, how dare you deny my call!”

Kingsley smiled. “Mr. Graham, maybe he’s just really busy right now. Why don’t you call him later?”

Hearing that, Darius grumbled for a bit and decided to take Kingsley’s advice.

After that, Arissa turned on silent mode for Benjamin’s phone and placed it on the side.

I wonder how the kids are doing at home right now.

She walked to the balcony and closed the door behind before she called Zachary.

“Mommy!”

“Have you had dinner yet, Sweetheart?”

“We aren’t done eating, Mommy. Grandpa wants you and Benjamin to come home for dinner,” Zachary said after taking a look at Darius, who was still very much annoyed.

Grandpa?

“You guys are with your grandpa?” Arissa asked after a moment’s thought.

Benjamin’s father?

“Yeap. We’re at Grandpa’s house right now. He called that man just now, but he didn’t answer. Are you coming over, Mommy?”

How did the kids get to Old Mr. Graham’s place? Did he call Benjamin to tell him to go home for dinner?

Arissa looked at the man sleeping in the ward, perplexed, before she said, “I’m not going back tonight. Please behave at your Grandpa’s house, okay? Listen to him.”

“Okay, Mommy. But why aren’t you coming back? Are you afraid to meet Grandpa?

“He’s a very nice guy, Mommy. He took us to some places and had a lot of delicious foods.”

“I think he likes us a lot, especially Jesse. He doesn’t seem to want to let go of her.”

“Grandpa would definitely like you, Mommy.” “Don’t worry, Mommy!”
