“Call me Darling!” Benjamin pinched Arissa's face.
Arissa lifted her eyes to him, but she couldn't bring herself to address him so intimately when she met
his scorching gaze.
She merely smiled sheepishly before turning her head away.
Arching a brow, Benjamin pinched her cheek again. “Well?”
His low and magnetic voice carried a sultry drawl that made one's heart skip a beat.
Finally, Arissa parted her lips and called him “Darling” in a whisper.
Benjamin's gaze flickered and darkened significantly. Her soft voice resembling a kitten's cry hit him
squarely in the chest, sparking the desire within him.
“I couldn't hear you.”
Struck speechless, Arissa gaped at him. Gah! He obviously heard me!
“Darling,” she called out once more.
This time, her voice was louder than earlier.
Benjamin bore his eyes into her. “Again, please!”
The corners of Arissa's mouth twitched. How childish of him!
“Darling, Darling, Darling!” she shouted into his ear successively.Then, she asked, “You heard me, yes?”
Taking note of the mischievous look in her eyes, Benjamin answered solemnly, “Yeah, I heard you.”
Snorting, Arissa lay back down on the meadow and gazed up at the sky with her head pillowed on her
hands.
Benjamin stared at her with an unfathomable look in his eyes. Some time passed before he lay down,
placing a hand under his head. Wrapping an arm around her, he pulled her over so she could lie on his
body.
Beaming sweetly, Arissa hugged him around the waist.
The two of them lay on the meadow, enjoying the wonder of nature in a rare moment of relaxation.
It was almost dusk, so the sun was tilting toward the west. As it shone between the mountains, it made
for a scenery that was as pretty as a painting.
“What a stunning view!” Arissa exclaimed in awe.
Dipping his eyes, Benjamin looked down at her, his thin lips turning up imperceptibly. “It'll be even more
beautiful in a while.”
Arissa glanced at him before she continued admiring the scenery in the distance quietly.
Neither of them spoke, yet a sweet atmosphere hung in the air.
It wasn't until Arissa's phone rang that the silence was broken. Arissa took her phone out, delight
flooding her. “It's Gavin!”
Again, Benjamin lowered his eyes and swept a gaze over her phone.Arissa swiftly answered the call. As soon as it was connected, Gavin switched it to a video call.
At the sight of Arissa, he greeted tenderly, “Mommy!”
In the next instant, Tim, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse crowded over. Staring into the camera, they
all greeted Arissa.
“Mommy!”
“Hi, my babies!” Arissa replied with a smile, regarding them affectionately.
Thereafter, she asked gently, “What's the matter?”
All six children giggled. Jasper started, “Mommy, we want to know where you went dating with Mr.
Graham.”
Chortling, Arissa lifted her phone and showed them her surroundings. “Can you see it? We're here.”
“What place is it?”
“I see mountains and meadows.”
“Yeah, me, too. Where are you right now, Mommy?”
The children's questioning voices amused Arissa greatly. “A horse ranch.”
She turned the camera to the horse so that they could see it.
“Wow! You both went horse-riding, Mommy?”
“Bingo!”Subsequently, Arissa switched the position of the camera and pointed it at Benjamin.
“Hehe, I see Mr. Graham.”
“Me, too.”
“Mr. Graham is lying on the grass!”
At the children's laughter, Arissa couldn't help laughing as well. She glanced back over her shoulder at
Benjamin.
Sweeping a gaze over her, Benjamin took the phone from her hand and trained his eyes on the
children on the screen. “Are your grandpa and great-grandaunt resting?”
“Nope. We're playing with Great-grandaunt in the garden downstairs while Grandpa is asleep.”
Gavin reported the situation at the hospital to the man.
“Grandpa is fine, so don't worry!” Zachary chimed in.
Benjamin bobbed his head before instructing, “If you all don't want to stay at the hospital, ask Edwin to
send you guys home.”
“We'll only be going back at night. Enjoy your date with Mommy without worrying about us!” Oliver
urged, nudging his glasses.
