You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Chapter 523

“The meeting is over! Why is there even a meeting so early in the morning?”

After his outburst, Kingsley got up and left the conference room. Then, he turned around and instructed his assistant.

“Something has come up so I have to be away for a while. Don't contact me unless it's something urgent!”

His assistant replied, with his head held low. “Yes, sir!”

Kingsley hurried up the elevator, whilst asking Shaun for the location.

He wanted to see his little sweetheart, Jesse and play with her.

Then, he saw Shaun's reply in the messages, “If you are smart enough, find it yourself!”

Kingsley retorted with a curse.

Shaun laughed aloud.

Benjamin glanced over at him.

The six kids looked at Shaun, and Oliver asked, curiously, “Mr. Bailey, why are you laughing?”

“Your Uncle Kingsley is asking where we are now.”

Shaun did not say that Kingsley had cursed him.

Ethen stretched his neck and peeped at Shaun's phone. He grimaced when he saw the vindictive message Kingsley had sent.

It seemed strange to him that Shaun could laugh so happily after being scolded.

“Shaun, keep your mouth shut!”

Benjamin took a sip of water and warned him.

“Sure, sure. I didn't say a word. Don't worry!”

Shaun quickly reassured him.

Only then, did Benjamin take his fierce gaze away from him.

Feeling his intense gaze, Arissa turned her head toward Benjamin, only to meet his deep enigmatic eyes. She blinked.

“Don't look at me. Go ahead and enjoy your meal.”

Benjamin could not help teasing her.

His warm breath brushed her ears, and her heart throbbed. Is this man flirting with me?

She turned to glare at him. “Hey, you have spoiled my appetite!”

How does he expect me to eat in peace!

His arm was on the back of her chair like he was holding her in his arms.

Benjamin's eyes were still unfathomable as he looked at her. He noticed a drop of sweat on the tip of her nose, which made her look really cute.

He touched it.

Arissa was taken aback. In the next instant, she blushed deeply.

Embarrassed, she pushed his hand away and quickly glanced around. Everyone at the table was watching them.

She felt rather embarrassed.

“Please let me eat in peace!”

Rather angrily, she reprimanded him.

Benjamin chuckled. “I was just brushing away your sweat. Go ahead, enjoy your meal!”

Leaning back on his chair, he was the picture of an alpha male.

“Go ahead, take your food, everyone!”

Everyone was speechless.

Shaun teased him. “Benjamin, you are satiated so easily?”

Bradley and Ethen did not dare to banter with him.

Arissa was curious, too.

She glanced at his bowl in front of him. He had hardly eaten anything. Isn't he hungry?

“Yeah!”

Benjamin nodded and glanced at the six children. Seeing that they were all staring at him, he raised his eyebrows.

“Don't keep looking around when you are having a meal!”
