Chapter 845
Mary nodded and told Arissa, “Please thank Old Mr. Graham on my behalf. He didn't have to do that.”
“Don't worry. I'll pass on your gratitude to him!” Arissa assured Mary and continued feeding her the soup.
“Edwin, remind the housekeeper from the Old Manor to take care of Grandaunt. Let her know what she needs to
pay attention to,” Benjamin instructed Edwin.
Edwin nodded in acknowledgment. He took the empty lunchbox and bade goodbye to Mary and Arissa. Outside, he
relayed Benjamin's order to the housekeeper before returning to Yaleview.
Benjamin waited until Mary finished her meal and returned to her bed. It was then time for him to return to his
company.
“Come downstairs with me!”
Arissa shot him a puzzled look. Assuming he had something to tell her, she hurriedly went after him.
Benjamin took her hand and led her to the elevator.
“Do you have something to tell me?” Arissa turned and gazed at his handsome face.

He bore a solemn expression.
After they stepped into the elevator, before the doors could slide shut, Benjamin pinned her against the wall and
covered her lips in a devouring kiss.
Arissa's cheeks turned pink from his superior skills. Benjamin only released her when she was about to suffocate.
The elevator arrived on the first floor, and the doors opened automatically.
Arissa was still in a daze when Benjamin wrapped his arm around her shoulders and led her out.
Fortunately, they were at a private hospital that wasn't crowded at noon. Otherwise, someone else would've caught
them in an embarrassing position.
At the entrance, she finally regained her composure and asked, “What is this about?”
A hint of amusement flashed across Benjamin's eyes. He pinched her cheek affectionately and said, “I want you to
send me off.”
Arissa was stunned beyond words.
“I shall head to work now. Give me a call if anything crops up!” Benjamin ruffled her hair fondly before heading
toward his car.
“Okay.” Arissa watched as he got into the car. She felt reluctant to part with him.
Desire surged within Benjamin as he waved at her. “Come here!”
“Hmm?” Not knowing what he was up to, Arissa inched nearer to him.
Benjamin dragged her into his car and slammed the door shut.
The next second, Arissa was pinned to the seat by Benjamin as he kissed her hungrily.
Over ten minutes later, Benjamin finally released her. His voice was hoarse but seductive as he asked, “Will you
come to the company with me?”
Arissa felt her heart skip a beat as a flush crept up her cheeks. “I should stay here to keep Grandaunt company.”
Mary had just had her surgery this morning. She was worried that the elderly lady would think too much if she were
to head to work instead of keeping her company.
“Okay.” Benjamin didn't insist. He only asked her if she wanted to head to the company so she could get some rest.
“If Grandaunt falls asleep, you should also get some rest. Don't overwork yourself. You should head upstairs now.”
“All right.” Arissa glanced at him. “Bye!”

“That's it?”
Arissa was taken aback. “What are you talking about?”
Benjamin furrowed his brows. “Did you forget how you usually bid goodbye to the kids?”
Embarrassment inundated Arissa as her cheeks flushed a crimson red.
She grumbled coyly, “Didn't you already take advantage of me earlier?”
Benjamin's gaze was deep and seductive. “I took advantage of you? Why did it seem like you were enjoying it, too?”
“Stop teasing me!” Arissa chided. She shoved his hand away to get off the car.
“I want a proper goodbye!” Benjamin insisted.
Rendered speechless by the man's antics, Arissa pouted her lips in his direction. “Mwah!”
A blush crept up Arissa's neck when she met his eyes, which crinkled with joy.
Pushing him away, she crawled out of his lap and dashed out of the vehicle.
Benjamin's low chuckle sounded behind her.
Arissa felt her ears going numb. Why is his voice lethally dulcet? Even his teasing chuckles sound extremely
attractive!
She turned over her shoulder and shot him a glare
