The More the Merrier novel Chapter 811

Chapter 811 This Is My Fiancée

Sensing an air of hostility, Arissa looked over her shoulder and caught a glimpse of Rosetta turning away to entertain her guests. Benjamin, who noticed her reaction, asked, “What are you looking at?”

Throwing him a glance, she inquired softly, “Why did you really bring me here?”

Benjamin’s eyes darkened. “For the delicious feast, of course.” Arissa, mouth twitching, scoffed, “Do I look like I’m desperate for food?”

Curling his lips slightly, Benjamin whispered into her ear, “Of course not, but I still want to bring you here.” Flattered by his words, Arissa turned to look him in the eye. “Did you bring me here to show me off to Rosetta?”

Benjamin cocked his brow. “That’s part of the reason too.” Faced with his honesty, the niggling she felt at the back of her mind gradually disappeared. “What else?”

“I also plan to show Mrs. Graham off to the many familiar faces here,” Benjamin suggested in a gentle tone as he wrapped his arm around her waist.

At the same time, he swept a threatening gaze around when he noticed the curious looks that had fallen upon Arissa. Consequently, Arissa’s lips couldn’t help but widen broadly. Is Benjamin implicitly declaring our status?

“Are you happy now?”

Benjamin gave her a passionate stare, causing her to clear her throat awkwardly. “I’m all right.” An amused glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes.

“Benjamin!” Aaron came over and greeted them with a smile. Turning around to look at the groom, Benjamin got to his feet and remarked, “Congratulations on your wedding!” Aaron burst into hearty laughter. “Where’s my present?”

“It will be arriving soon!” Benjamin reassured him.

“Aaron, I’m sure no one is as shameless as you to ask for your own wedding gift. Besides, it’s not like you’re not aware of how busy Benjamin is. Where would he find the time to get you a present?” Kingsley teased from his chair. “How am I going to get it if I don’t ask for it?”

Aaron had barely responded with a grin when he was briefly stunned by the sight of the unfamiliar face sitting beside Benjamin. “And who might this be?”

“Let me introduce you.” When Kingsley pointed to Arissa, he noticed the glare shot at him by Benjamin, who then introduced her himself.

“This is my fiancée.”

Aaron, together with Arissa, were stunned. Kingsley, Shaun, and Jonathan were all equally flabbergasted but quickly curled their lips into a smile.

What a way for Benjamin to introduce her. This was the first time they saw him acknowledge any woman’s relationship to him, and it was indeed a sight to behold.

“Hello, I’m Arissa York.” Arissa got to her feet and wished the groom, “Congratulations on your wedding!”

Given that she had come for the food and so hadn’t brought a gift, she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed about it.
