Chapter 1076 She Was Still Nervous

“I am not!” Arissa huffed and lowered her head.

The corners of Benjamin's lips tilted upward. He lifted her chin once more and gave her more kisses. “Why do I feel that you're angry? Let me make it up to you. Will this do?”

He kissed her each time he finished a sentence.

Arissa was left speechless as she glanced up at him. He should have just said so if he wanted to kiss me. Why did he have to sound so pompous?

“No!” She pushed him away before nuzzling against him.

Benjamin stared at her. The smile remained on his lips as he pinched her cheek dotingly.

Arissa moved away from his hand and mumbled, “Go to sleep already!”

“I thought you had trouble sleeping?” The man's husky and extremely seductive voice sounded beside her ear.

“I'll be able to sleep if you just stop disturbing me.”

Benjamin quirked a brow and kissed her forehead. “Goodnight.”

Arissa smiled at his words. She stole a glance at him but found him staring at her. “Goodnight!”

Benjamin pulled the blankets, making sure she was covered properly before wrapping his arms around her.
