Chapter 816
“It's useless even if she does,” Kingsley scoffed.
“I'm sure you have seen for yourself Benjamin's attitude toward Rosetta today. Therefore, even if they wanted to
leverage their relationship with Benjamin to get him to withdraw the lawsuit, it would be impossible. To Benjamin,
the children are more important than any woman. No, wait, let me rephrase. All that matters now to him are Arissa
and the six children. Whoever dares to bully them will suffer his wrath.”
Shaun smiled in response, for he harbored similar thoughts.
As for Jonathan, he was finally getting it after listening to Kingsley's words. “Does Benjamin really not have feelings
for Rosetta?”
Kingsley glanced at him from the corner of his eye. “You bookworm, didn't you just see for yourself how furious
Benjamin was after hearing Rosetta's words?”
Jonathan agreed after giving it some thought. “I've never seen him so protective over a woman before. Looks like
we were the ones who misunderstood him previously.”
Kingsley let out a sigh. “His mind is really unpredictable.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShaun and Jonathan couldn't help but feel amused.
Meanwhile, inside the car in front, the unpredictable Benjamin asked Arissa, “Are you tired?”
Gazing into his eyes, Arissa shook her head.
“Not at all.”
I didn't need to entertain or stand for a long time. Furthermore, all I did was eat, so why would it be tiring?
Benjamin, nodding to her reply, stared intently at her pretty face.
“Did you manage to eat your fill?”
Arissa threw him a glance as she grinned. “More or less.”
“But I didn't,” Benjamin remarked in a deep voice.
The stunned Arissa quickly remembered that he had barely eaten any food earlier.
“Shall I cook you some pasta when we get home?” she suggested, as it was a nutritious meal.
Benjamin's brows furrowed slightly in resistance. “Can you cook something else?”
Arissa cracked a smile that made her look so beautiful he couldn't peel his eyes away. “Of course. What would you
like?”
Benjamin maintained a passionate stare on her.
Reaching out his hand, he pulled her into his embrace and planted a kiss on her.
Arissa, with her eyes widened, stared at his handsome face.
As the pheromones he was emitting began to fill her nose, her heart rate began to tick up.
Since her wide-eyed look was quite the mood-killer, Benjamin pinched her cheek. “Close your eyes!”
Blushing all over, Arissa complied obediently.
A delighted glint flashed across his eyes before Benjamin kissed her again.
Eyes closed, Arissa felt as if her soul was being blown away.
The moment she opened them, her lips curled slightly at the sight of Benjamin's intoxicated expression.
By the time Benjamin released her, she was gasping desperately to catch her breath.
Her face was flushed red, just like a bed of blooming roses.
Nevertheless, Benjamin—unable to get enough of her—gave her another kiss.
Arissa unexpectedly dodged him this time. “My lips hurt!”
Benjamin frowned as he looked at the wound on her lip. “Why hasn't it recovered?”
“This is your doing.” Arissa leaned into his arms and attempted to calm herself down.
When he lowered his eyes and saw how submissive she was, Benjamin was, again, filled with the urge to kiss her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, he was stopped by the sight of the wound on her lips.
Fortunately, there was some medication in the car, which he helped her to apply.
“Remember to apply your medication diligently,” Benjamin reminded her.
Chuckling to herself, Arissa gave him a sly look. “It will gradually recover as long as you don't kiss me.”
When Benjamin snorted in response, she scooted her way to the other side of the car.
Incidentally, she blushed when she caught a glimpse of the driver and quickly averted her gaze by looking out the
window.
As Benjamin's attention remained fixed on her, his lips curled into a smile at the sight of her red cheeks.
Leaning into her, he whispered, “Are you still not used to it?”
His unbelievably deep and alluring voice caused her heart to skip a beat.
Feeling amused, she shot the calm Benjamin a quick glance. “Used to what?”
He pulled her into his arms and locked her in a tight embrace. “Used to me kissing you.”
Lowering his head, he nuzzled his face against her neck and allowed himself to be intoxicated by her mesmerizing
scent.
