Chapter 786 Teach Me A Lesson

Benjamin kept his eye on her, his gaze deep and somewhat mystifying. “Get over here and wipe my back!”

 

Arissa twitched her mouth slightly as she glared at the man in disbelief. Argh! How much more shameless can he

get? I can’t believe he wants me to wipe his back for him!

“In your dreams!” she huffed before hightailing it out of the room, her heart still pounding in her chest. Quickly, she

gathered her laptop and bag and walked toward her room.

Benjamin furrowed his brows but said nothing more as he dropped his pants and stepped into the bathroom. Once

she was back in the comfort of her room, Arissa buckled down and started working.

Meanwhile, the joyous shouts and laughter from the six children rang out from time to time. As soon as he had

finished showering, Benjamin promptly walked out to the balcony and looked downstairs.

After spending a few minutes watching Darius and the children romp happily around in the garden, he changed into

a fresh set of clothes and stepped out of his room.

Following his instincts, Benjamin turned on his heel and headed toward Arissa’s room.

Sure enough, he found her so immersed in her work that she didn’t even realize he had entered the room.

Shortly after, Benjamin was standing behind her and peering over her shoulder. The next second, he leaned down

and pointed to an area on the document. “The data here is wrong.”

Arissa nearly jumped out of her skin as she turned around and found herself staring at the face of her surprise

visitor. “W-When did you come in?”

Benjamin studied the shocked expression on her face and harrumphed softly.

 

“I’ve been here for a while.”

With him standing so close to her, Arissa could feel his warm breath tickling her skin whenever he spoke.

On top of that, Benjamin’s freshly showered fragrance was so overwhelmingly enticing that she felt her heart

pounding away again.

She quickly averted her gaze and shifted aside.

“What do you want, Graham?”

Benjamin gazed intently at Arissa and smirked when he saw the blush creeping up her cheeks. “Didn’t I tell you not

to work overtime?”

“I’m not used to leaving work unfinished.”

“You want the kids to teach me a lesson? Is that it?” Benjamin asked as he casually leaned against the table with his

hands in his pockets.

Arissa stole a glance at the man, and even she had to admit he looked incredibly charming.

“Oh? Are the kids capable of doing that?”

“Gavin and Zachary have been waiting for a chance to get back at me,” Benjamin scoffed. “What do you think?”

Upon hearing that, Arissa couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly.

“Put your work away!” Benjamin ordered.

Arissa, however, remained in her chair and stared back with pleading eyes. “There’s only a bit more to go. I’ll be

done with it soon!”

“Arissa York, can you be more obedient?”

Seeing how furious Benjamin was, Arissa flinched. Dear God! He’s such an emotional man.

“Are you ignoring my orders?” Benjamin added as he pinched her cheeks.

Arissa blushed and quickly slapped his hand away. “I’d appreciate it if you could move your ass away, Graham!”

Benjamin raised his brows and shot her another glance before doing as instructed.

With that, Arissa hurriedly gathered her documents and put them neatly away.

Meanwhile, Benjamin had lain on her bed, feeling relaxed as he placed his hands behind his head and stared at her.

When Arissa finished tidying up her table and turned around, she met the man’s piercing gaze.

“I’m going down,” she mumbled.

Hmph! Since I’m not allowed to work, I’ll spend my time with the kids.

Seeing that Benjamin didn’t respond, she shot him another look. “Are you coming?”

To her surprise, Benjamin walked up to her and pulled her into a hug.

Not knowing what he was up to, Arissa gave him a puzzled look.

“Yes. Let’s find Gavin and the rest,” Benjamin replied gently.

Arissa smiled. “I suppose you seldom spent time with the little one in the past?”

“Yes,” Benjamin said as he glanced at her. “I’ve always been busy at work.”

Upon hearing that, Arissa furrowed her brows. No wonder Gavin always said his father was busy. The poor boy has

missed out on so much fun!

Realizing she was feeling sorry for her son, Benjamin hurriedly explained, “But there were times when I’d bring him

along to the office!”

Almost immediately, Arissa conjured up images of Benjamin bringing Gavin to work. When she imagined the boy

wailing his head off and Benjamin frantically trying to coax him, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
