Chapter 299 Did You Wash Your Hair

She snorted, “Why would I ask you if I wasn’t planning on making them?”

Benjamin snorted in return. This woman is getting feistier by the day.

“If you can’t cope, get Edwin to help you!”

Arissa was taken aback by Benjamin’s instructions.

She stared at him with a smile. “I know. I’ve asked Edwin to buy me a roast chicken.”

When Benjamin locked eyes with her, he felt as if they were a siren calling out to him.

He raised his hand to pinch her cheeks before leaving the kitchen.

Arissa’s face reddened in response.

Running his fingers over where he pinched her, she could feel her heart pounding.

His reaction is certainly baffling.

After regaining her senses from his beguiling gesture, she continued cooking dinner.

Soon, Edwin returned just when Arissa finished preparing the first dish.

“Mrs. Graham, let me help you!”

Arissa laughed awkwardly.

“Edwin, don’t call me that. You’re embarrassing me!”

Edwin chuckled. “You’ll get used to it sooner or later. Besides, you’ll soon take on the title officially.”

Arissa felt abashed. “You should wait till then to call me that.”

Edwin laughed as he put away the roast chicken to be warmed.

“Edwin, can you take over the stove for me. I need to prepare the eggs,” Arissa instructed and proceeded to steam the eggs.

After that, she returned to grill the fish.

“All right now, I’ll take over.”

Edwin was no match for her in the kitchen.

Within one hour, Arissa prepared all the dishes.

“Ms. York, you should take a break. Let me set the table instead,” Edwin offered.

Grinning, Arissa didn’t insist. After she took off her apron, she went to the study to get Benjamin for dinner.

However, when she didn’t find him there, she went to check the living hall.

There, she heard the children’s laughter outside and walked out instead.
