Shaun was soon sent away by the butler.

Hence, only Arissa and Benjamin were left in the living room.

During the ensuing silence, she gazed at him contemplatively.

When she met his gaze, her heart skipped a beat.

“Does it still hurt?” he asked, glancing at her arm.

After he looked at the bruise, his face fell.

“It’s better now,” she muttered lowly, quickly averting her eyes as her heart raced.

Without saying a word, he got up and headed toward the kitchen.

Arissa looked at him curiously, wondering what he was going to do.

After a while, Benjamin came back to her with something in his hand.

Upon seeing that he was coming back to her, she awkwardly averted her gaze away from him.

Feeling something cold on her arm all of a sudden, she turned around and looked at him in bewilderment.

“Put some ice on your arm. You’ll feel better,” Benjamin said softly.

Looking at his exquisite facial features, she could not help but find him stunning.

“Thank you. Let me do it myself.”

Arissa tried to take the ice pack from Benjamin, but she was stopped by him.

“Don’t move!” He shot a look at her.

She was once again rendered speechless.

Does he have to be so serious?

Sneaking a glance at his face, she pursed her lips and kept silent.

As she looked to the ground, she seemed to be lost in thought.

Noticing her silence, Benjamin raised his eyebrows and said, “Don’t worry. You can stay here for now.”

She looked up at him and asked, “Wouldn’t it be inappropriate for me to stay at your place?”

I’ve just worked for a few days, and now I am moving into my boss’ house? I can’t imagine the consequences if the media finds out about this.

“Why would it be inappropriate?” He held her gaze firmly.

Arissa blinked in response, not saying a word.
