Chapter 1007

Earlier, Darius had only brought the close relatives to receive Benjamin and his group. As for the rest of the guests, they were all waiting in the plaza.

Meanwhile, Arissa was in awe at the number of people gathered. She had already found the earlier crowd to be big. Little did she expect to find even more people here.

Arissa glanced at him. “A little.”

When Arissa shot him a look of surprise, he cocked a brow in response. “Do you not believe me?”

Arissa was amused. “Of course I do!”

Benjamin's gaze became more intent when he saw the vibrant smile on her face. “Have you lost your courage? Why are you cowed with so few people around?”

The speechless Arissa felt her lips twitch. What does he mean by a few? There are more than a thousand people gathered here! Does he think everyone has this many relatives? Besides, I'm not used to being stared at by so many people.
