The More the Merrier novel Chapter 645

Chapter 645 Back To Dellmoor

Benjamin’s eyes flashed. “Over who’s a better pilot.”

Arissa laughed. “I don’t even know how to fly a plane!”

“You are suspiciously humble about it. Are you afraid I might find out how good you actually are?”

Benjamin stepped closer as he spoke. His warm breath brushed over her ears and made them numb.

Arissa’s cheeks flushed against her will. She edged away as little as she dared and smiled awkwardly upon meeting Tim’s curious gaze.

“Enjoy yourselves, boys. I’m heading back.” She turned to return to the cabin.

Tim blinked. Could Mommy by shy?

Benjamin’s deep eyes followed Arissa. They only lowered to the boy in his arms after she disappeared from sight.

“Shall we return as well, Tim?” Benjamin asked in a slightly raised voice upon noticing that his son was also staring at Arissa.

Tim nodded. “Yeah, let’s head back!”

Benjamin lifted him as they went in Arissa’s wake. Spread luxuriously across his father’s broad shoulders, Tim gazed longingly at the cockpit.

Upon returning to her seat, Arissa shut her eyes for some much-needed rest.

Sensing Benjamin’s return, she opened them again and found the man seated next to her with their son in his arms.

“Give him to me!” She reached out with both arms.

Benjamin glanced at her. “Weren’t you just about to take a nap?”

Tim glanced at Benjamin. “I can sit by myself, Mr. Graham,” he whispered.

Benjamin looked down at his son. “As you wish, then,” he said before getting up and placing the boy in the seat he had previously occupied before buckling him in.

When he turned around, he saw Arissa craning her neck to gaze at their son.

Benjamin reached out and playfully rapped her forehead with his knuckles. “What are you looking at? Go to sleep!”

Arissa rubbed her forehead and glowered angrily at him.

“Cover Tim up with a quilt.”

Benjamin went away to procure a quilt to drape over the boy. “Get some sleep, Tim,” he murmured. “It’ll be over another hour to get home.”

Tim nodded obediently and burrowed himself further in his seat before looking around.
