You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 First Dinner

Mr. York treats Gavin more like a mother than Ms. Adams.

Edwin peered at Arissa and took a look at Jasper again, feeling the two look somewhat alike.

However, he quickly realized his thought was inappropriate and pushed it out of his mind. There is no way Ms. York is the mother of Gavin.

He believed what he thought was merely a false idea.

“Ms. York, this way.” Edwin bowed as he beckoned Arissa to the dining hall.

Arissa responded to him with a polite smile.

“Mommy, hurry up!” Jasper took Arissa’s hand and led the way.

Hearing Jasper addressing her as his mother, Edwin was taken aback.

Arissa, who was also equally shocked, hurriedly fudged an excuse. “He’s just messing with me!”

After hearing her explanation, Edwin could not help but feel bad for the kid.

“Mr. Whitley, Ms. York is a nice person. So, please be nice to her!” Jasper shrewdly corrected back the way he addressed Arissa and enjoined Edwin.

Seeing the kid so attached to Arissa, Edwin replied with a warm smile, “Okay, I will!”

“Yay!” Jasper exclaimed and then gleefully took his mother to the dining hall.

Benjamin, sitting on the main seat, beckoned Arissa over when he saw the duo walking over. “Take a seat.”

“Thanks, Mr. Graham.” Arissa nodded as she followed Jasper.

Coming to the dining table, Arissa sat the kid on a chair before taking her seat.

Benjamin swept his gaze across them secretly.

During the meal, Jasper grabbed a plate of steak and put it in front of Arissa. “Ms. York, try this. This steak is delicious!”

“Okay.” Arissa nodded delightfully. Although she was touched, she dared not touch the cutlery before Benjamin. Therefore, she stole a glance at him.

Coincidentally, she met the man’s blazing gaze. Feeling embarrassed, she forced a smile to cover her uneasiness.

She knew having dinner along with a dignified and unapproachable man was not an easy thing, just like having a meeting with a big boss.

A moment later, Benjamin retracted his gaze and started to eat.

Only then did Arissa begin to dine.

At the table, Jasper was busy talking. However, Arissa only briefly responded to him because she wanted to keep a boundary in front of Benjamin.
