Chapter 812 What Do You Think Meanwhile, Benjamin picked up an orange and began to peel it. As his slender fingers did it effortlessly, Arissa was mesmerized just by looking at them.
âHere.â Once Benjamin was done, he hand-fed her a piece. A warm feeling gushed through her, and she lowered her head to take the fruit into her mouth. âIs it sweet?â
Benjamin tilted his head at her. Covering her mouth, Arissa answered, âItâs sweet and sour at the same time.â After giving her a look, Benjamin ate a piece himself.
In an instant, his eyebrows furrowed. âItâs so sour. Why did you say that itâs sweet?â
Arissa threw him a look of surprise. âI thought it was sweet.â Watching the lovebirds whisper sweet nothings to each other, Jonathan beamed.
âBenjamin, whereâs Gavin and the others?â
âTheyâre at home,â Benjamin replied softly after glancing at Jonathan.
Jonathan nodded. âAfter this, Iâll drop by your place to play with them. Itâs been a long time since I saw them.â
âMr. Patterson, you must have been really busy,â Arissa teased.
âI just have a few cases crammed together recently. Usually, itâs not that bad.â With a cheeky smile, Jonathan inquired, âWhen is your wedding going to be?â
Arissa was instantly embarrassed.
With his arm around Arissaâs waist, Benjamin quipped, âYou should start preparing our wedding gift.â
Coincidentally, Rosetta came over and was overwhelmed by jealousy upon hearing the exchange.
âBenjamin, come sit with us. My brother has arranged a seat for you at the main table.â
As a glint flashed across Benjaminâs eyes, all he gave her was an expressionless stare.
âSince Iâm not family, it wouldnât be appropriate for me to sit there. Iâll just remain here with the guys. Thank you, Ms. Adams.â
Turning his back toward Rosetta, Benjamin paid no further heed to her.
âBenjamin...â
Rosetta looked at him with a pained expression.
At the same time, Arissa sat quietly and munched on the snacks on the table.
âAnd who might this be?â
Noticing Benjaminâs lack of response, Arissa was too shy to introduce herself. Hence, she simply pretended to not have heard the question.
After glancing at the two of them, Jonathan answered Rosetta politely, âSheâs Benjaminâs fiancée.â
As she clenched her dress in reflex, the smile on Rosettaâs face faded slightly. âIs that so?â
Only then did Arissa turn around and give Rosetta a small nod. âHello!â
Rosetta was caught off guard for a fleeting moment before she responded through gritted teeth, âHello to you too.â
As she stared intently at Benjamin, all she saw was him engrossed in deshelling some pistachios for Arissa.
âCome have more of these.â
When Benjamin fed Arissa some, she had no choice but to oblige.
As for the rest of the nuts, they were left on the small plate in front of her.
Rosettaâbeing left to stand there awkwardlyâentertained some of the other guests at the table before returning to her own.
Finally, the wedding ceremony started and was a romantic affair which Arissa watched from beginning till end.
Benjamin leaned over. âWhat do you think?â
Hmm?
She turned toward him.
Looking deeply into her eyes, he gestured at the bride and groom at the main table. âWhat do you think of the wedding?â
She broke into an immediate smile. âItâs really romantic!â
Benjamin watched her for a moment longer before straightening in his seat.
Arissa snuck a glance at him. Why is he asking me that?
Scooting closer to Benjamin, Jonathan asked with a smile, âAre you using this wedding as a reference?â
As Benjamin gave him the side-eye, Jonathan was amused.
If Benjamin is to get married, it will definitely be the wedding of the century.
Soon, the dishes arrived at the table one by one. Shaun and Kingsley also returned to their table.
âArissa, are you enjoying yourself?â
Kingsley gave her a mischievous look.
Arissa nodded. âI am. Why?â
âNothing. I was just asking.â
Kingsley then let out a snicker, which elicited a warning from Benjamin.
As he served Arissa some food, he uttered, âTime to eat!â
âYeah!â
Arissa nodded before digging in and paying no heed to everything else.
Meanwhile, plenty of guests would come over to exchange pleasantries when they saw Benjamin, Jonathan, Shaun, and Kingsley.
Even then, she wasnât required to entertain alongside them.
Finally, when Aaron and the bride came over to their table to propose a toast, Benjamin made sure she only drank juice instead of wine.
As a result, Kingsley, Shaun, and Jonathan teased him repeatedly over it.
