Chapter 941 You Decide
His warm breath blew onto Arissa’s face, causing her to blush instantly. She glared at him while still feeling embarrassed. When did this man become such a pervert?
Benjamin’s lips curled slightly when he saw her rosy cheeks. He held Arissa’s hand tightly as they entered the elevator. “Have you thought about where to eat?”
Arissa looked at him. “Not yet. I’ll ask the children what they want to eat later.” Benjamin furrowed his brows. “Don’t just think about the children. Think about yourself!”
Arissa was at a loss for words. Of course we should get the children’s opinions since we’re taking them out to eat. She fixed her eyes on the man’s attractive side profile. “What would you like to eat?”
Benjamin arched a brow. He did not expect her to ask him that. “It’s your treat, so you decide!” Arissa chuckled mischievously. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll take you to a food stall?”
Benjamin frowned at that. Is she referring to those food stands by the street?
Even though he had never eaten there, he had observed that the words “food stall” were written on their banners whenever he passed by.
“Those places are unsanitary. Let’s not go there!” “But there are also very clean ones with delicious food!” “We’re going to the hotel.”
Benjamin put his foot down. The mere thought of eating at those stalls made him lose his appetite. Arissa was rendered speechless. He just told me to decide on that.
“Good day, Mr. and Mrs. Graham!” the receptionist greeted them loudly just as they stepped out of the elevator. Arissa was startled. She nodded with a smile.
Benjamin, on the other hand, looked pleased as he held Arissa’s hand and led her out. “Hmm? You guys are getting off work so early?”
Kingsley came over, and when he saw the couple coming out holding hands, he cast a teasing glance their way. “Yes!” Benjamin responded as he opened the car door and let Arissa get in. “Do you need something?”
“Nope! I just finished work, so I dropped by for a visit,” Kingsley replied with a shrug. “Are you two going home now?” “We’re going to pick up the kids from school.”
After saying that, Benjamin stopped paying attention to his friend. He stooped to enter the vehicle, shut the door, and told the driver to drive.
Kingsley’s lips twitched as he watched the car speed off. This friend of mine is just…
He quickly got into the car and chased after them. Benjamin’s driver glanced in the rearview mirror and informed respectfully, “Mr. Watts is following us in his car, Mr. Graham.”
Benjamin furrowed his brows. What does that guy want?
“Ignore him!” Arissa looked at him and asked with a smile, “Does he need to speak to you about something?” “Does it look that way to you?”
Benjamin shot her a glance before looking away and making a call to book a restaurant.
Arissa’s lips twitched when she heard him making a reservation at a hotel restaurant.
Kingsley arrived at the school at the same time as them.
“I’ll go pick them up!”
He was the first to run to the school gate.
Benjamin merely cast a glance at him before leading Arissa to stand at the side.
She looked at him in puzzlement. “Aren’t we going over?”
“Didn’t he say he’ll pick them up? Let him do it!” Benjamin said flatly with a tinge of mystery in his voice.
Arissa’s eyes flickered before she sneaked a look at him. “He can’t pick them up, right?”
Since the last incident, only a few of them could pick up the children.
Benjamin’s thin lips curved upward slightly into a meaningful smile. “Exactly!”
She appeared to get his meaning and was somewhat speechless.
“It’s better for us to get in the car. Otherwise, Mr. Watts will be able to bring the kids out!”
If the couple stayed there, the children would definitely come running over as soon as they saw them.
“That makes sense!”
Never did Arissa expect Benjamin to really lead her back to the car.
“What are you doing? We’re going for lunch after picking up the kids!”
“It’s still early.” He checked the time. “Let’s go to the hospital to visit Grandaunt first.”
“Then we should have got there earlier!”
