The More the Merrier novel Chapter 1051

Chapter 1051 Go To Sleep

Blushing furiously, she lay in bed and meekly allowed him to wipe her down and change her clothes.

After her sweaty day of horseback riding, she felt much better after being wiped down.

Benjamin leaned over to tuck her in, smiling faintly at the sight of her scarlet cheeks.

“Why is your face so red?” he asked, suppressing a smile.

Arissa's cheeks grew warm. She pulled the quilt up to cover them, exposing only her eyes which she rolled at him.

“I'm not as thick-skinned as you.” He once enslaved me during his stay in the hospital, and I don't recall seeing him feel bad.

Benjamin smiled wickedly. He leaned over, causing Arissa to flinch.

“Me, thick-skinned?” Benjamin's beady eyes were fixed upon her exquisite features.

Arissa blinked and met his deep gaze. “Aren't you?” she argued. “You're a grown man, yet you still asked me for baths daily back then!”

Benjamin's eyes twinkled as they remained fixed on her. “Bringing up the past now, are we?”

“No, I'm not!” Arissa shook her head innocently. “I'm just saying.”

Benjamin chuckled and pinched her nose. “Just saying? I'm currently returning the favor, then. So now we can call it even, right?”

Arissa was dumbstruck.

“Perhaps you feel like you've been taken advantage of. You can bathe me now if you so wish.”

Benjamin's lips curled upward wickedly as he teased Arissa.

Arissa glared at him. “Shameless creature!” she hissed. “The doctor said I am to lie down, and you're asking for a bath?”

Benjamin laughed and stroked her cheek affectionately. “I'm just teasing. Be good and stay in bed. I'm going to take a shower.”

Arissa nodded. “Go on. It's getting late.”

His unblinking gaze upon her made her uncomfortable.

Despite having married each other more than once, it was his first time asking for a bath with so much bravado.

Benjamin knew what she was embarrassed about. Chuckling, he turned around to grab his clean clothes and head into the shower.

“Go to sleep. Quit moving about!”
