Chapter 545 Just Hit Her Next Time Arissa stopped in her tracks abruptly.
Furrowing his brows, Benjamin lowered his gaze at her. âSheâs your grandma?â
Arissa had a sullen look on her face. âNo!â
Turning around, she sneered, âI donât have a grandma like you, so stop playing victim just because youâre an elder. You donât deserve it at all. Also, donât call me your granddaughter just because you want me to pay for your things, as it has nothing to do with me at all!â
Finley stared at her in disbelief. âArenât you my granddaughter?â
Arissa was amused. âAm I only your granddaughter whenever you need money? When you donât, do I turn into a jinx? Given how vicious you are, shouldnât you learn to have a heart if you want me to show you some respect?â
By then, a scowl had replaced the smile on her face.
âFrom the day you sold me off five years ago, I no longer have anything to do with all of you. In fact, I will make sure you are punished by the law for what you have done. Go back and tell your son that itâs just a matter of time before I settle this score with him!â
Even though Danna was unforgivable, Regan was worse.
If he hadnât plotted against her, Danna wouldnât have had the opportunity to do the same later. Also, she and her children wouldnât have had a close shave with death.
âYou, how can you be so cruel?â
Finleyâs eyes opened so wide that they could pop out anytime.
Just when the bodyguard stepped forward to slap her, Finley held onto her cheeks frantically. âDonât hit me!â
âIf you dare continue ranting, it will be more than just a slap!â the bodyguard warned.
When she saw the usually arrogant Finley terrified into silence, Arissa averted her gaze.
âLetâs go.â
She didnât want to spend another moment together with Finley, for the latter disgusted her.
After giving his bodyguard a look, Benjamin left together with Arissa.
Inside the car, she put the shopping bags aside.
She had intended to get Mary some shoes, but her mood was spoiled by her encounter with Finley. Hence, she decided to get them next time.
Benjamin handed her a water bottle. âDrink some hot water.â
Arissa received it and took a few mouthfuls.
When she saw him staring at her, she turned to look at him.
âIâm fine!â
Benjaminâs eyes glistened slightly. âHas that old lady always treated you that way?â
His expression was exceptionally gloomy.
âOther than having a filthy mouth, sheâs all right,â Arissa replied in a nonchalant tone, for she had gotten used to it.
It was only when Finley disparaged her mother that she lost her temper.
In response, Benjamin pulled her into his embrace and patted her on the head.
âWhen someone derides you like that the next time, you should strike first instead of standing there cluelessly, waiting to be hit.â
Arissa felt a jolt in a heart.
âMmm-hmm!â
Benjamin stared at her intently, cognizant of her bad mood. âWhat did you buy?â
âI bought clothes for both Tim and Mdm. Mary. Also, I got Tim a pair of shoes.â
âLet me see.â
Benjamin brought the bags over and took out the top she bought for Tim. âMmm-hmm, this suits him. He looks good in white given how tan he is.â
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 544 EX-husband Groveling to Me Arissa glanced at him.
After Benjamin put it back, Arissa took it out to fold it when she noticed he didnât do so.
âIs that necessary?â
Benjamin stared earnestly at her.
âIt will be crumpled if I donât fold it.â
After wiping the creases away, Arissa folded it carefully.
âOnce we take it back, weâll have to wash it before letting our son wear it,â Benjamin reminded.
âI know. Even then, it still needs to be folded.â
Arissa put the clothes back into the bag once she was done.
âThe children mentioned that you went out to alter some clothes, so I didnât expect you to be running around buying them too. Why didnât you tell me?â
In response to his complaint, Arissa looked at him and smiled. âArenât you supposed to be busy? Thereâs no point in telling you, as I would be heading back once I am done. By the way, how did you find me?â
When Benjamin leaned back into his seat, he pulled Arissa along, who then adjusted her posture upright.
âDad called me, as he was worried that you were in trouble. Tracking you down was the easy part.â
Arissaâs heart warmed to learn of it. âThatâs really nice of Old Mr. Graham!â
Frowning, Benjamin snapped, âWhy are you praising him when I was the one who came to your aid?â
