Chapter 54 Sniffing Her Hair âAll right!â Jasper hugged her and sniffed the familiar sweet scent of her body.
Although Arissa was sad to leave him, she did not have any choice at that point. She then gently ruffled the boyâs hair.
âLet go of her, Gavin. She needs to go home!â Benjamin told his son in a stern voice.
Jasper tightened his hug upon hearing that. Daddy is so annoying.
Arissa felt bad for her son when she saw how fierce Benjamin was. âMr. Graham, please understand that sometimes a child is reluctant to be separated from his playmate!â
âPlaymate?â Benjamin looked at her with a teasing gaze.
Arissa was momentarily stunned by his query and secretly groaned in her heart. Well, I canât possibly say that heâs reluctant to be separated from his mother.
âItâs okay, Ms. York. You should get going. Have a safe trip home!â After bidding farewell, Jasper turned to run upstairs.
Arissaâs heart tightened as she took a step forward with her gaze fixated on her son.
Benjamin stared at her, feeling that the way she looked at Gavin was rather strange. âArissa York, how many children do you have?â
âWhat?â After retracting her gaze, Arissa looked at him in puzzlement.
As he began to close in on her, Arissa subconsciously stepped backward until her back touched the wall.
He placed a hand on the wall and looked down at her condescendingly. âIf I didnât know that you have kids, Iâd think that you are trying to steal my son away.â
With his hand on the side of her head, they were in a pretty suggestive position.
Arissa did not dare to breathe heavily. With only a small intake of air, the seductive masculine scent of his body filled her lungs.
She chuckled, trying to hide the fact that her heart was throbbing. âI really want to steal him away, Mr. Graham. Will you let me do so?â
Benjamin responded with a snort. âHow dare you!â
She glanced at him, wondering what he was trying to do. âGavin is such a lovely kid. Anyone who meets him will surely like him, right?â
His gaze still lingered on her. âYouâve met my son before?â
She was bewildered by those words. âToday is the first time we both met.â
âWhy does he like you?â Benjamin questioned intensely.
Arissa was struck silent by his inquiry.
She raised an eyebrow when she sensed he was determined to get an answer. âYouâll have to ask your son about that.â
Actually, sometimes, there was no reason why a person would like another person.
It could just be an intuition.
In addition, as mother and son, they naturally felt closer to each other compared to strangers.
Just then, Benjamin stroked her hair and suddenly inched closer.
Seeing him getting nearer, Arissaâs heartbeat accelerated.
She thought he was going to do something to her. However, he just leaned against her shoulder and sniffed her hair.
Her face reddened with embarrassment as she froze on the spot.
âMr. Graham?â she called out in a stiff tone.
He is so strange. A moment ago, he was being aggressive. Now, heâs acting in such a flirty manner.
All of a sudden, Benjamin straightened his body and walked away with both hands in his pockets.
Arissa was perplexed. What is going on here?
After patting her flushed face, she followed after him.
Looking at the manâs tall and confident figure, she noticed that he was acting as though nothing had happened earlier. She then felt an inexplicable twinge of frustration deep inside.
âSend her home!â Benjamin instructed a bodyguard.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 53 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You âYes, Mr. Graham!â After that, the bodyguard held the car door open and bowed. âPlease get in, Ms. York.â
Arissa turned to face Benjamin. âGoodbye, Mr. Graham.â
In response, Benjamin nodded slightly.
After casting another glance at him, she entered the car. Following that, the bodyguard shut the door before getting into the driverâs seat.
Seconds later, the car sped away.
In the car, Arissa eyed Benjamin before averting her gaze upward. She lowered the window when she spotted the boy waving at her from upstairs.
âGavin, go inside. Itâs dangerous to lean on there. Goodbye!â
âBye, Ms. York. Iâll miss you!â Jasper moved back slightly as he continued to wave at her.
Arissaâs eyes reddened, for she would miss him as well. She withdrew her gaze only after the boyâs figure was out of sight.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Looking in the rearview mirror, the bodyguard felt a bit strange when he saw she was on the verge of tears.
