Chapter 140 Cheesecakes for Mister Graham

After gently pinching Gavin’s cherubic cheeks, Arissa chuckled. “Well, that depends on the situation.”

“Mommy, hurry up and make it clear to Daddy. He’s not the type who will lose his head in love. I mean-”

Gavin stuck his tongue out in jest as he explained, flabbergasted. “Daddy and Danna are not even close,

Mommy. In fact, they have long gone their separate ways!”

When Arissa realized Gavin’s efforts to score brownie points for Benjamin, she laughed with amusement.

“Okay, I got it. I’m rational enough to see the facts for myself.”

With his eyes squinted in half-moons, Gavin chortled delightfully.

As Arissa held Gavin’s hand on their return, she turned to look in the direction of the balcony again. This

time, Benjamin was no longer there.

After they returned to the house, Edwin approached them with some cheesecake he had made.

“Try the cheesecake, Ms. York,” offered Edwin.

“Thank you!” After that, Arissa sat down with Gavin and tucked into the cheesecake.

“Is it delicious, Mommy?” Gavin tugged at her arm and asked softly.

“It tastes great!” Arissa leaned in toward Gavin and wiped his mouth.

Gavin smiled from cheek to cheek. His eyes radiated warm affection nourished with Arissa’s tender care.

Arissa rubbed his head gently in a doting manner.

“Have more slices, Ms. York!” urged Edwin enthusiastically with a grin.

“I have room for two slices at most. Why don’t you have a slice too?” said Arissa with a luscious smile,

looking at Edwin standing at the side.

“Please enjoy the cheesecake, Ms. York. I will excuse myself for now with some chores. If you need

anything else, please call out for me.” After that, Edwin got ready to leave.

“Sure!” Arissa nodded in reply. She continued relishing the cheesecake with Gavin.

Soon, Gavin handed her another slice of cheesecake. “Here, Mommy. Have this!”

“Thank you, Sweetheart!” Arissa took over the slice of cheesecake from him. When she noticed he had

not finished his slice, she playfully pinched his nose. “Sweetheart, why are you taking so long to finish

your slice?” Arissa teased him.

“I will finish it little by little, Mommy.” With that, Gavin snugged up to Arissa affectionately and sat by her

side. With his mouth full of cheesecake and legs dangling by the couch, Gavin looked incredibly

adorable.

From a top-down view, Arissa admired Gavin’s long, luscious lashes. He was a good-looking boy whose

features were immaculately outstanding. In fact, Arissa couldn’t help but feel exalted. After all, she had

given birth to such a handsome boy.

“Are you going to bring Daddy a piece of cheesecake?” asked Gavin innocently.

“Huh?” replied Arissa, slightly astonished.

“Daddy likes cheesecakes too!” said Gavin with a grin.

“You mean he likes this too?” Arissa was slightly taken aback as she couldn’t imagine a cold and aloof

man like Benjamin to like such sweet dessert.

“As long as you bring him some, he will eat it!” Gavin blinked his eyes expressively.



When Arissa noticed Gavin’s playful expression, she leaned forward to hold him. Then, she gave him a

peck on his cheek.

“What are you trying to make Mommy do?” Arissa asked.

Gavin looked at her and replied with a sneaky smile, “I’m creating a chance for you to see Daddy by

bringing some cheesecake over!”

When Arissa saw the look of anticipation on Gavin’s face, she couldn’t help but break into laughter.

“All right then. Let me finish my cheesecake first.” In hearty morsels, she finished her cheesecake with

joy. After she was done with two slices, Gavin barely finished even one slice.

She wiped her mouth after she was done and took a slice of cheesecake. Then she set off to the study

for Benjamin. At the door, Arissa knocked slightly to get his attention.

“Come in!” There came a voice from the study.

Arissa opened the door gently and peeked in. She made her way slowly into the study with the

cheesecake.

“Mr. Graham, have some cheesecake!” said Arissa as she walked over to him. Then she carefully placed

the cheesecake down.

With that, Benjamin raised his eyes to look at her.

At that moment, their eyes met, and that made Arissa’s heart thump excitedly. The atmosphere became

somewhat awkward in that split second.

Arissa quickly cleared her throat and asked, “Are you available now?”



“Just speak,” said Benjamin with his body leaned back in his chair. His intense gaze shot directly at

Arissa in anticipation.

As Arissa felt intimidated by his intense gaze, her eyes darted away with a few blinks to diffuse the

tension. She found it difficult to express herself before his forceful demeanor.

“Do you want to try some cheesecake first?” Arissa sneaked a glimpse at him as she felt a sense of

apprehension.

Benjamin looked down at the cheesecake in front of him. “I don’t take cheesecakes.”

At that moment, Arissa was at a loss for words.

Still, she conjured an awkward smile and persisted, “The cheesecake is delicious, actually. It’s perfectly

fine to have a slice once in a while!”

With an unyielding gaze on Arissa, Benjamin suddenly stood up and walked toward her.

He came up so close to her she got a whiff of his manly scent. Overwhelmed, Arissa took a step back.

Her heart palpitated hard and thumped away uncontrollably.

When Benjamin noticed her flushed face, his upturned eyes glinted. Without warning, he extended his

long arms and scooped her into them.
