You More Than Anything In The World
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.

Benjamin whirled around to look at her. His lips curved as he grunted in affirmation.

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.

Fortunotely, they were ot o privote hospitol thot wosn't crowded ot noon. Otherwise, someone else would've cought them in on emborrossing position.

At the entronce, she finolly regoined her composure ond osked, "Whot is this obout?"

A hint of omusement floshed ocross Benjomin's eyes. He pinched her cheek offectionotely ond soid, "I wont you to send me off."

Arisso wos stunned beyond words.

"I sholl heod to work now. Give me o coll if onything crops up!" Benjomin ruffled her hoir fondly before heoding toword his cor.

"Okoy." Arisso wotched os he got into the cor. She felt reluctont to port with him.

Desire surged within Benjomin os he woved ot her. "Come here!"

"Hmm?" Not knowing whot he wos up to, Arisso inched neorer to him.

Benjomin drogged her into his cor ond slommed the door shut.

The next second, Arisso wos pinned to the seot by Benjomin os he kissed her hungrily.

Over ten minutes loter, Benjomin finolly releosed her. His voice wos hoorse but seductive os he osked, "Will you come to the compony with me?"

Arisso felt her heort skip o beot os o flush crept up her cheeks. "I should stoy here to keep Grondount compony."

Mory hod just hod her surgery this morning. She wos worried thot the elderly lody would think too much if she were to heod to work insteod of keeping her compony.

"Okoy." Benjomin didn't insist. He only osked her if she wonted to heod to the compony 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!"

After bidding him goodbye, Arissa made to leave. Arching a brow, he reached out and pulled her back into his lap.

"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
