Chapter 663 Darius Grumbling
“Since you won’t let me apply medication, remember to apply it yourself!” Benjamin shouted in Arissa’s direction. How is she so easily embarrassed? It seems like she’s not that daring after all.
Arissa’s heart was pounding even harder when she got into the bathroom.
She then saw herself in the mirror. At that moment, her face was flushed, and her eyes were filled with desire.
Indeed, like Benjamin, she was also having a hard time trying to suppress her desire.
Her cheeks flamed hotly at the thought.
She only managed to calm herself down after staying in the bathroom for a while.
After washing her face, she made sure she wasn’t looking as red anymore before she left the bathroom.
Right then, she heard noises coming from the front door, so she went over to check it out.
There, Darius was ordering the butler from the Old Manor around. They were moving boxes that looked like presents.
When Darius saw her, he smiled lovingly and yelled, “Issa! Is Tim back as well?”
“Hi, Mr. Graham!” Arissa greeted him with a smile and walked toward him. “Yes, he’s here!”
“Is he inside the house?” Darius craned his neck to look into the house because he was eager to see his grandchild.
“They’re in the garden!” Arissa answered while pointing toward the lake.
“I’ll go over there then.” Darius turned around to leave, but he halted in his tracks and ordered William, “Quickly, bring all these boxes into the house!”
When Arissa looked inside the car, she saw it was filled to the brim with boxes. Even the trunk of the car was packed full too.
Surprised, she asked, “What are these, Mr. Graham?”
Darius smiled delightedly. “These are presents for the kids!”
This is too much, no? Arissa’s lips twitched. “Didn’t you already buy them presents last time around? Why did you buy them gifts again?”
“Tim didn’t get presents last time around. However, I couldn’t help but buy for Gavin and the others as well. After all, the other five of them aren’t going to be happy if they don’t receive gifts when Tim gets them!” Darius laughed and walked toward the lake.
“Issa, lead me there, okay? Are they over there? I didn’t see them when I was coming here just now. Is Edwin with them? I bet he didn’t see me just now. If he did, he would surely come and greet me…” Darius was grumbling agitatedly.
Amused, Arissa chased after him. “Slow down, Mr. Graham! There’s no need to rush!”
Darius smiled when Arissa went to him to hold his arm. He then complained about Benjamin to her.
“Issa, you have no idea how disobedient Benjamin is. Did you know he blocked my number? That’s not even all! He also blocked the Old Manor’s number, so no one could reach him. I couldn’t even call you or Gavin and the others when I wanted to. I’m so pissed!” Darius’ face was puffed up with anger.
Arissa was taken aback. “He blocked you?”
“Yes! He’s so mean,” Darius complained.
Arissa quickly comforted him when she saw how worked up he had gotten.
“I think he just didn’t want you to travel around too much. After all, you’re still bound to see Tim. We’ve only gotten back today, and I’ve been asleep till before dinner. That’s why we haven’t gotten the chance to inform you. I’m sorry to have gotten you worried!” Arissa was very apologetic.
“I don’t blame you. This is all Benjamin’s doing. He’s always trying to get me mad, and he won’t even allow me to see my grandchildren!” Darius gritted his teeth in anger.
Arissa let out an amused chuckle. “Calm down, Mr. Graham. You’ll see them soon!”
Her voice was so sweet and convincing that Darius felt much better after hearing that. He then smiled and looked at her when he asked, “Issa, is there another grandchild apart from Tim?”
Arissa blushed when she saw the eagerness in his eyes.
After smiling sheepishly, she answered, “No. Just these few!”
Darius chuckled heartily. “Six isn’t too bad at all. No one is able to surprise me as much as you did. Issa, thank you!”
If I bring all six of them out with me, my comrades are going to be so envious of me! With that thought in his mind, Darius was on cloud nine.
