The More the Merrier novel Chapter 893

Chapter 893 A Video Call During Work

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Benjamin’s deep voice rang out. It was very pleasant to the ears. “What do you want me to say?” Arissa harrumphed.

She sounded coy. His thin lips quirked slightly as he had the sudden urge to see her. “I’ll hang up now.” Arissa was taken aback to see the call being ended abruptly.

While she assumed that he had an urgent matter to attend to, a request for a video call came from him a mere seconds later. Her heart skipped a beat. Why is Benjamin suddenly making a video call?

She quickly raked her fingers through her hair and straightened her clothes before accepting the request. “What took you so long?” Benjamin grumbled.

There was a pucker between his brows. Evidently, his patience ran thin when she did not answer the call instantly. Pursing her lips, Arissa only directed the front camera to her face. “I’m still in bed!”

Benjamin paused. Then, he flashed her a suggestive smile. “It’s not as if I’ve never seen you before. There’s no one around here. You can be a little more open!”

The corners of Arissa’s mouth twitched in response. She lowered her gaze to look at herself. I’m still lying under the quilt, whereas Benjamin’s properly dressed in a suit, looking all dashing. I envy him so much!

Frowning, she snorted and replied, “Graham, do you think it’s right of you to be on a video call with me when you’re at work?”

Benjamin eyed her and spoke domineeringly. “Who would dare to stop me from calling the boss lady?”

Arissa giggled. “Are you busy?”

“It’s all right.”

Staring at her with a burning gaze, he uttered, “Take a bath later and have your meal before going back to bed.”

She glanced at him and asked in a whisper, “Are you planning to give me another day off?”

If she were absent from the office again, she might not be able to keep up with her work anymore.

“You can go to work after you’ve had enough rest,” he replied.

Do I need to hire an assistant for her in the IT department?

“I’ll go to work slightly later,” said Arissa.

“Are you sure you can come for work?” Benjamin inquired and looked at her worriedly.

The corners of her mouth twitched. If he can do it, why can’t I?

“Of course. All right, I’m going to hang up now. Let’s meet later in the office!”

With that, she disconnected the video call without hesitation. The smell from their intimate session in the morning lingered in the bedroom, bringing a deep blush to her face.
