Chapter 48 Can You Be My Mommy
“That would be me!” Benjamin said while looking at her.
Arissa looked at him in surprise as she heard that. When Benjamin’s eyes met with hers, she quickly turned her head back to the program and said, “I didn’t know that you are skilled in programming too, Mr. Graham!”
“Is that a compliment or a criticism?” Benjamin asked.
Ignoring his question, Arissa smiled and continued writing the program.
After staring at Arissa for some time, Benjamin took a look at the code on the screen. He noticed that she had rewritten the code to a much better version than the previous one.
At the doorway, Jasper probed his head into the room and watched them.
When Benjamin turned his head toward him, he quickly ran out.
Man, why is Daddy here? I wanted to say hello to Mommy!
Benjamin stepped out of the room toward Jasper, who was in a dinosaur costume with his head out, and patted his head. “Are you wondering who that lady is?”
Nope! I know that’s Mommy!
Jasper glanced at Benjamin and quickly lowered his head without saying a word.
“She’s Arissa York. She’s here to install the surveillance cameras’ system,” Benjamin told Jasper.
As Arissa was waiting for the program that she finished writing to run, she overheard Benjamin’s talking voice and turned her head to see who he was talking to.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice from the doorway. “Will she stay for dinner?”
The voice surprised her, and her heart skipped a beat.
At the same time, Benjamin turned toward her, so she quickly turned her head back toward the program, feeling puzzled.
Why does the voice sound like Jasper’s? But he should be at home, not here! Is that my son? Their voices are so similar to each other!
“Well, it’s up to her whether she wants to stay or not!” Benjamin said while squeezing Jasper’s face gently.
Jasper blinked his eyes and glanced at Benjamin.
