Chapter 108 This Is My House

Over at the dining table, Arissa, who was still eating with Gavin, turned around to check on Benjamin, only to find him standing in front of her bedroom.

Her cheeks flushed crimson at once.

How could he enter my bedroom without my permission?

“Mr. Graham!” Arissa called out to him. She could not let him invade her privacy.

Benjamin turned to her, looking as composed as ever. He did not show a single shred of unease despite being caught red-handed.

 

His handsome face remained calm as he explained, “I heard some noises coming from inside. I was just checking to see if there are any rats!”

Arissa was rendered speechless by the sensible excuse.

 

“So, did you find any rats, Mr. Graham?”

“No. Perhaps it’s in the other room. Let me go check.”

As he said that, he turned around and headed toward the other room.

Arissa’s heart almost leaped out of her chest. Hastily, she stormed over and blocked his way.

“Mr. Graham, there are certainly no rats in my house. You must be hearing things.”

Benjamin did not expect her to do that. Unable to halt his tracks, he bumped straight into her.

Arissa found herself pressed against the door. Flushing crimson, Arissa stretched out a hand
