Chapter 316 You Kissed Me Arissa finally realized Benjamin was kissing her.
At that realization, her eyes widened with shock as the heat began to spread from her face to her neck.
Benjamin opened his eyes and met her gaze with a burning intensity.
âClose your eyes,â he ordered with a husky voice.
Her heart began thumping louder in her chest, and she squeezed her eyes shut.
He wrapped an arm around her waist and another at the back of her neck, holding her head in place before he leaned in to land his lips on hers.
Her brain was all fuzzy from the passionate kiss. His touch on her back snapped her out of the moment like a bucket of cold water. She shyly yet determinedly pushed him away.
âYou rascal!â
She swiftly pulled the blanket over her head, hiding her entire face.
His temper sparked after having his kiss interrupted, but it was quickly extinguished as he observed her adorable actions.
Delight flashed across his eyes.
âYouâre the one who kissed me first.â
She immediately pulled the blanket down, staring at his handsome face with disbelief.
âYouâre lying!â
There is no way I would do that!
He arched his brow wickedly. âWell, you didnât push me away when I kissed you either.â
She couldnât come up with a retort since she truly had been drawn into the moment by his kiss.
Shooting him a death glare, she snapped, âMy brain was still groggy from sleep!â
A thought came to her. She sat up and looked down at the man lying down beside her.
âArenât you disgusted by me? You didnât look all that disgusted with me a minute ago. Could it be that youâve fallen for me?â
He merely stared at the smug expression on her face silently.
After a few seconds, she couldnât hold his intense dark gaze any longer and awkwardly averted her gaze.
Realizing she would lose if she averted her gaze first, she swiftly shot him a fierce stare.
Thinking she had done well, she whirled around, then left his room.
The moment the door fell shut, she patted her face in an attempt to cool her bright red cheeks.
After a while, she dashed to her room to wash up and change. Looking refreshed, she turned down the hall toward the kidsâ room.
She opened the door silently and peeked through the crack.
Seeing the kids were still asleep, she silently closed the door and descended the stairs to the kitchen to make breakfast.
She had just reached the stairsâ landing when a loud greeting startled her.
âGood morning, Mrs. Graham!â
Arissa looked at the burly man with a puzzled look, nodding belatedly. âGood morning to you too.â
âYou look beautiful today, Mrs. Graham!â Jack chuckled as he fixed his stare on her.
Others wouldâve assumed Jack to be a rich, dumb man if it wasnât for his honest smile.
She was curious about his identity but merely nodded at his praise, then continued down the stairs.
Casting a sideways glance at him, she wondered who he was since she hadnât met him before.
Jack merely smiled at her.
Mrs. Graham is quite beautiful. Sheâs a good match for Mr. Graham.
No wonder their children are so good-looking.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 315 Arissa walked toward the kitchen with Jack following her while he asked, âMrs. Graham, are you hungry? Breakfast is not ready yet.â
âIâm not hungry. I want to prepare breakfast,â she answered.
Jack muttered an acknowledgment and said, âEdwin will prepare it soon. You donât have to do it yourself. Just tell him what youâre craving, and heâll have the kitchen staff make it for you.â
âRight, but I want to do it on my own,â she replied with a smile.
Jack rubbed his nape awkwardly. âIâll help you!â
âNo, itâs fine!â she rejected.
A look of disappointment crossed his face.
She was stunned by his disappointed look, which made her feel like she had hurt him.
âDo you hate me, Mrs. Graham?â Jack questioned cautiously.
Not knowing how to answer his question, she said, âNo, itâs nothing like that! I donât even know who you are. How can I hate you?â
Awkwardness filled her.
It was then Jack recalled he hadnât introduced himself.
Patting his chest, he introduced, âIâm Jack, Mrs. Graham. Much like Ethen, I have been working with Mr. Graham for a long time.â
She nodded. âWhy havenât I seen you before?â
Jack grinned. âI was out on a business trip overseas. I just got back two days ago. Mr. Graham requested me to search for you immediately after my return.â
She was shocked. Did Benjamin ask Jack to search for me?
