Chapter 778 His Pillow
The bodyguard only closed the door after ensuring that Arissa was well seated in the car. He then got into the driver’s seat and sped off to the school.
Arissa threw a look at the man before turning to look out the car window. All of a sudden, he pulled her toward him.
“Ah!” Arissa gasped in astonishment. After stealing a look at the bodyguard in the driver’s seat, she turned to glare at Benjamin. “What are you…”
She trailed off when she noticed the utter weariness on his face. “Let me sleep for a while.” Benjamin wrapped his arms around her tightly, resting his chin on her shoulder.
Arissa blushed crimson in an instant. She could feel a tingling sensation as his breath brushed against her ear. Any slight movement from her would trigger him to tighten his embrace.
Seconds later, Arissa heard his steady breathing. Utterly speechless, she blinked. Is he treating me as his pillow?
She turned slightly to glance at Benjamin. The man’s usual vibe of indifference seemed to be prevailed by a sense of gentleness when he was asleep. His long and curly eyelashes looked incredibly beautiful.
Before retracting her gaze, she could not resist taking a peep at the man’s stunning good looks again. “Mrs. Graham, Mr. Graham hasn’t slept for almost two days,” the bodyguard whispered.
Arissa was startled. Two days? I’ll just let him sleep a while more for the sake of the kids. After a while, Arissa took the blanket and covered Benjamin’s body with it.
The man was suddenly alerted and opened his eyes. Seeing that, she froze in embarrassment. However, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep again the next second. Arissa held her breath. Is he awake or is he still in his dream?
Listening to the man’s steady breathing, she was gradually at ease again. Along the way to school, Arissa did not wake Benjamin up. Nonetheless, she could not help racking her brain about how to break herself free from his embrace to get out of the car upon reaching the school.
Whenever she moved, he would tighten his arms around her. It went on a few times that she almost thought he had woken up.
