When Benjamin noticed her snooping around, he went over and stood behind her.
“What are you looking for?” he asked, leaning forward.
“Ah!”
Arissa was entirely focused on figuring out what was happening inside the room, so the sudden voice startled her so much that she dropped the food container in her hand.
Benjamin was quick to catch the falling item.
Upon noticing it was him, she patted herself on the chest in relief. “Why are you here? You gave me a terrible fright!”
Her face was tinged pink in embarrassment when she realized he must have seen her sneaking around earlier.
“This is my company. Isn't it normal for me to be here?”
Benjamin straightened his back and looked down at the woman with a teasing look in his eyes.
Arissa was stumped for words.
“I brought you breakfast. Hurry up and eat it. I'm going to the hospital now!” she said hurriedly and turned around to leave.
Benjamin grabbed her hand and dragged her into the office.
He even closed the door behind them.
At that, Arissa widened her eyes. “Why did you close the door?”
A mischievous look fleeted across his eyes.
In a suggestive tone, he said, “I can do whatever you wish to do. Your wish is my command.”
Her face flushed in response, forming an enticing sight.
Benjamin's eyes darkened as he transfixed his gaze on her.
That was when he noticed that she was dressed differently that day.
When she was not in her usual professional-looking office attire, she looked extra bubbly and sweet, as if she was about to go on a holiday.
Her exquisite little face made it difficult for him to avert his gaze.
“You look quite nice today.”
Benjamin was thrilled as he thought that she had dolled up to send him breakfast.
The man was silently cheering the fact that she was making an effort to look pretty to him.
Arissa's face blushed an even deeper hue of red when she noticed the smug smile on his face. Has he misunderstood my intention? I only wore clothes of a different style because I was worried people might recognize me.
“I just threw them on!” she hurriedly explained.
“You may dress like this every day from now on.”
Benjamin dragged her to the side of his office desk and put down the food container in his hand.
Then, he reached out to remove her sunglasses and propped them on her straw hat.
The hint of affection within his gestures caused Arissa's heart to skip a beat.
He eyed her with a burning look in his eyes.
Arissa avoided his gaze as his look was too intense to hold.
Benjamin's lips quirked into a small smile when he noticed her crimson face.
A second later, he dragged her to his chair, sat down on it, and made her sit on his lap.
Their posture was intimate beyond words.
Arissa's heart pounded. Even her neck had turned red.
She quickly stole a glance at Benjamin and was met with his fervent gaze.
Arissa instinctively wanted to flee.
Sensing her intention, Benjamin held her waist with one hand and the back of her head with the other.
The man pulled him closer and sealed her soft lips with his thin ones.
As if he had found an oasis in a desert, he could not stop savoring her.
In a domineering manner, he tasted the warmth inside her mouth.
Arissa was unable to resist him. Soon, she slumped in his embrace and let him do whatever he wanted to her.
Benjamin was not too pleased with the straw hat being in his way. Hence, he took it off her head and hurled it at his desk while deepening the kiss at the same time.
Steamy sounds that would make one blush reverberated in the silent office.
Arissa's face was tinged red, her breath ragged from his intense kiss.
Her alluring eyes were intoxicating to him.
Benjamin could not help but drown in them as he showered her with another round of passionate kisses.
It was not until Arissa almost went out of breath that he reluctantly let go of her.
His eyes traced her swollen red lips as he focused on the corner of her lips where she was injured the day before.
The wound had cracked open once again, and blood seeped through it.
It was such a seductive scene that Benjamin could feel hot blood coursing through his veins, pooling somewhere deep within him.
His eyes darkened as his breathing turned heavy.
If it were not for the upcoming international conference call... At that thought, Benjamin furrowed his brows and tried to suppress the burning urge in his body.
All of a sudden, Arissa was left on the chair while he rose to his feet and strode toward the lounge.
Puzzled by his action, she looked at the man who had gone into the other room in confusion.
It took her some time to regain her composure and steady her breathing.
Arissa cupped her cheeks and felt the burning sensation on her palms.
My goodness. That was too wild, wasn't it? I wasn't expecting myself to lose myself in the kiss.
At that moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard in the doorway.
That gave her a jolt, and she hurriedly adjusted her posture on the seat.
