Chapter 336 A Handsome Man Asked Me Out

When it was time for dinner, Arissa snuck a glance at Benjamin and saw him on the phone with his back facing her.

She could faintly hear him speaking in a foreign language.

Seizing the opportunity, she packed her things and snuck out of the office.

When she hurried into the elevator and turned around, she was stunned to see Benjamin enter.

He gave her a look as if to warn her.

Nevertheless, he continued talking on the phone with a stern expression.

After the elevator doors closed, Arissa glimpsed at him awkwardly before pressing the button for the first floor.

When they arrived, Benjamin was still on the phone.

After taking another glance at him, she walked out of the elevator.

When she noticed that he was following her, she turned around and remarked, “I’m going out for dinner.”

Giving her the side-eye, he continued to follow her.

Subsequently, Arissa glared at him when he entered the car her son had sent to pick her up.

Raising his brow, Benjamin reciprocated with a piercing gaze of his own.

With her lips pursed, Arissa asked softly, “Are you joining me for dinner?”

After ending the call, Benjamin gave her a look of displeasure.

“Are you leaving me to fend for myself by sneaking out?”

Arissa’s lips twitched at the accusation.

“Well, it’s just that when I saw how busy you were, I didn’t want to disturb you.”

“Then why don’t I feel welcomed when I followed you down?” Benjamin scoffed as he leaned closer to her.

Arissa blinked before her eyes darted around shiftily.

After that, she answered with an awkward smile, “You must have felt wrong, Mr. Graham.”

Benjamin let out a cold snort.

She really is a feisty one. Despite trying to sneak out, she is adamant about finding excuses.

“Where are you going for dinner?” He stared at her.

Racking her brains, she teased, “I got asked out by a handsome guy!”

Benjamin furrowed his brows. “Who?”

Arissa was amused by his response.

“I doubt you’d know him even if I told you.”

At that moment, tension filled the air.

Arissa felt goosebumps appear all over her body when she was enveloped by the pressure he emitted.

Consequently, she rubbed both her arms.

Benjamin looked at her from the corner of his eye.

“Are you cold?”

Arissa gave him a look but didn’t respond.

Benjamin then ordered the driver, “Turn up the heater.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham,” the driver grunted in acknowledgment and did as he was instructed.

“Mr. Graham, is this temperature all right?”

Benjamin asked Arissa, “Are you still cold?”

Arissa returned his gaze. “I’m fine now.”

Benjamin grunted in response.

Nonetheless, Arissa continued to look ahead and ignored the suffocating aura that Benjamin was releasing.

When Gavin called again, she hastily answered the phone.

“Mommy, are you in the car yet?”

Arissa replied softly, “I am. I just left the office.”

“Did Daddy notice you?” Gavin’s wary voice rang out which was clearly heard by Benjamin.

Is Gavin the handsome man she mentioned just now?

He snorted, “Gavin, what are you trying to do? Why do you need to hide the fact that you’re having dinner from

me?”

Benjamin felt exasperated at how ungrateful his son was.

Upon hearing Benjamin’s voice, Gavin fell silent.

A short while later, he added, “Mommy, come over quickly. We’re waiting for you to start dinner!”

“All right.” Arissa replied.

I’m already in the car. It’s not like I can travel any faster.

“Mommy, Grandpa has ordered a lot of delicious food for us.”

“Mmm-hmm.”

Arissa continued, “Sweetheart, where did all of you go today?”

“We went to the playground. Zachary and the others had a lot of fun!”

Upon hearing Gavin’s reply, Arissa cracked a vibrant smile.

“Is that so? How about you then, did you enjoy yourself?”

Her mind was filled with images of the children having fun.

“I did!” Gavin laughed gleefully, warming Arissa’s heart.

“Sweetheart, I will take all of you there the next time.”

“That’s wonderful!” Gavin was filled with anticipation.

He then said, “We’ll see you in a while, Mommy.”
