Chapter 1033

“Call me Darling!” Benjamin pinched Arissa's face.

Arissa lifted her eyes to him, but she couldn't bring herself to address him so intimately when she met his scorching gaze.

She merely smiled sheepishly before turning her head away.

Arching a brow, Benjamin pinched her cheek again. “Well?”

His low and magnetic voice carried a sultry drawl that made one's heart skip a beat.

Finally, Arissa parted her lips and called him “Darling” in a whisper.

Benjamin's gaze flickered and darkened significantly. Her soft voice resembling a kitten's cry hit him squarely in the chest, sparking the desire within him.

“I couldn't hear you.”

Struck speechless, Arissa gaped at him. Gah! He obviously heard me!

“Darling,” she called out once more.

This time, her voice was louder than earlier.

Benjamin bore his eyes into her. “Again, please!”

The corners of Arissa's mouth twitched. How childish of him!

“Darling, Darling, Darling!” she shouted into his ear successively.

Then, she asked, “You heard me, yes?”

Taking note of the mischievous look in her eyes, Benjamin answered solemnly, “Yeah, I heard you.”

Snorting, Arissa lay back down on the meadow and gazed up at the sky with her head pillowed on her hands.

Benjamin stared at her with an unfathomable look in his eyes. Some time passed before he lay down, placing a hand under his head. Wrapping an arm around her, he pulled her over so she could lie on his body.

Beaming sweetly, Arissa hugged him around the waist.

The two of them lay on the meadow, enjoying the wonder of nature in a rare moment of relaxation.

It was almost dusk, so the sun was tilting toward the west. As it shone between the mountains, it made for a scenery that was as pretty as a painting.

“What a stunning view!” Arissa exclaimed in awe.

Dipping his eyes, Benjamin looked down at her, his thin lips turning up imperceptibly. “It'll be even more beautiful in a while.”

Arissa glanced at him before she continued admiring the scenery in the distance quietly.

Neither of them spoke, yet a sweet atmosphere hung in the air.

It wasn't until Arissa's phone rang that the silence was broken. Arissa took her phone out, delight flooding her. “It's Gavin!”

Again, Benjamin lowered his eyes and swept a gaze over her phone.
