You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 141

Chapter 141 Gavin Is Indeed My Son

Benjamin’s sleek move caught Arissa by surprise. With quick reflexes, she placed both her hands on his chest to block him. Flabbergasted, she stammered, “Y-You…”

Benjamin peered at her with a suggestive, darkened gaze. Her face radiated a rosebud pink as she blushed away in embarrassment.

“You are nervous indeed,” said Benjamin.

Arissa stared into his eyes, not knowing what to say. She couldn’t help but feel nervous since he hugged her suddenly.

“Mr. Graham, can you let go of me first?” uttered Arissa.

However, Benjamin continued his steely gaze at her. “Why do I find you so familiar?” he asked, seeming to imply something.

This made Arissa’s heart pound even wilder. With an uneasy smile, she replied, “Is this the way you usually pick women up?”

Benjamin heaved a slight sigh and said, “You came to me with a purpose by offering the cheesecake. Why are you acting all innocent now?”

Arissa’s face grew redder than before. She struggled to free herself from him, but it was futile.

In a haughty tone, she glared at him. “Actually, I have something to tell you!” What a presumptuous man! He even thinks I’m trying to get near him purposefully… Oh, please.

Benjamin raised his thick eyebrows inquisitively and looked devilish. With his body leaned in close to her, he looked at her seductively. His elongated and upturned eyes were dark and brooding in a captivating gaze.

“What is it?” asked Benjamin.

Arissa moved back more to distance herself from him. Even then, she could clearly still feel his breath. The tension in the air made it hard for Arissa to focus.

With her face all red, she mumbled, “Mr. Graham, can you please make way?” It was hard for her to talk when he came up so close to her.

Benjamin noticed she was still red in the face and suddenly released her from his arms. Once he did so, Arissa quickly shifted aside with shady eyes.

“Is this your creation?” he asked, with a casual glance at her.

“What?” replied Arissa. She looked blankly at him, still in a daze.

Amused, Benjamin raised the cheesecake and looked at her. “I’m talking about this!”

Arissa returned to her senses and became alert. “Well, Edwin made this.”

Then Benjamin put a mouthful of cheesecake into his mouth. The cheesecake exuberated a sweet and citrusy flavor.

With enlarged eyes, Arissa glanced at him in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that Benjamin actually liked cheesecakes. As Benjamin savored the cheesecake, she pondered a while before firing off her question.

“Well, have you ever wondered…” Arissa started.

Benjamin raised his eyes to look at her. That made Arissa pause for a while as she gathered her thoughts about Gavin.

“What do you think? Do you think I look like Gavin’s real mom?” asked Arissa with gusto.

“Even if there is a resemblance, it doesn’t prove your relationship!” replied Benjamin with his darkened gaze and low, husky voice.

When Arissa realized Benjamin wasn’t mad at her, she took the chance and pressed on. “Actually, Gavin is indeed my son!”

Now, Benjamin sharpened his gaze even more intently and narrowed his upturned eyes.

Arissa felt a mounting pressure on her.

“What evidence is there to prove that you are Gavin’s real mom?” asked Benjamin.

After she swallowed a lump in her throat, Arissa said, “If you don’t believe me, Gavin and I can do a DNA test for authentication!”

At that moment, Benjamin had finished the slice of cheesecake and put the empty plate down. Arissa could not believe that he really finished that whole slice.

Benjamin took his time to wipe his mouth and slowly moved back to his work desk.

“Mr. Graham?” Arissa tried to get a reaction from him. She wasn’t sure about his take on the matter. Isn’t he the least surprised?

“All right. I got it.” Benjamin swiped a glance at her before he resumed his work. He remained indifferent and paid no more attention to her.

Arissa was speechless once again.
