Be Honest
“Hehe, it’s all my fault, Graham. I must have been sleepwalking. I promise you it won’t happen again. I
swear,” Arissa assured Graham.
Benjamin’s eyes gleamed. She actually thought she was the one who crawled into my bed. Oh well. I’ll
just let it be then.
He poked Arissa’s back and she instantly fell back into his arms.
She stared at him in disbelief. Just one poke and I’m in his arms again. What the hell?
“How can I believe you when you don’t walk the talk?”
The atmosphere became tense as Benjamin flashed a smile that did not reach his eyes.
Arissa felt helpless. When did I ever fail to keep my promise?
“I will definitely keep my word. I don’t know what else I can do to make you believe me.”
She huffed in frustration. In the next moment, however, she had a wicked glint in her eye as she traced
her fingers over his body.
“Could it be that you were the one who carried me over to the bed?”
Benjamin stared at her in amusement, as if telling her it couldn’t have been his doing.
Arissa was in a bind. Since he didn’t do it, I must have crawled into his bed then.
“Anyway, we’re just sleeping together. Why would you ask me to be your partner if you mind it so
much?”
“Do you have to sleep with me just because you’re my partner?”
Benjamin arched his brow and spoke in a haughty tone.
Arissa laughed drily. Weren’t you the one who wanted to sleep with me back then? Why are you acting
all high and mighty all of a sudden?
“Graham, don’t you know that honesty is the best policy? There’s no shame in admitting to it.”
She trailed her hand down his abs as she spoke.
Benjamin’s gaze darkened as a bulge begin to form in his pants.
He felt as if he had been possessed and was dangerously close to the point of no return.
“Woman, do you know what you’re doing?”
He spoke in a deep, raspy voice as he locked his gaze on her.
Arissa’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly retracted her hands.
“Hehe. You kissed me just now. So why can’t I touch you?”
Does he think he’s the only one who’s allowed to make the first move?
Benjamin stared at her with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Just as Arissa was about to roll off the bed, the door to the ward was pushed open abruptly.
“Benjamin, look what I’ve brought for you.”
Shaun and Kingsley barged into the room. Their eyes widened in surprise when they saw the couple
together on the bed before they smiled knowingly.
Arissa quickly flipped over and sat up straight. She straightened her clothes and rushed into the
restroom to clean herself up. This is so embarrassing.
Benjamin glanced at her and turned his attention over to Kingsley and Shaun. He didn’t look the least
bit embarrassed even after getting caught.
“What are you guys doing here?”
“Hehe!” Kingsley chuckled with malicious glee.
Shaun gave Benjamin a look and walked right in. He seems to be in a good mood today.
“Tsk tsk. You’re disappointed because we’ve interrupted something good, right?”
Kingsley went over and teased Benjamin.
Benjamin gave him a piercing glance. “So you’re aware of that? Why are you here then?”
Shaun and Kingsley exchanged looks of amusement.
“My, my. What a rare sight.”
Kingsley glanced in the restroom’s direction and asked Benjamin, “Did the two of you sleep—”
“Kingsley, how was the view yesterday when you’re up on the mountains?” Benjamin asked coldly.
Kingsley’s mouth twitched as he glared at him.
“Benjamin, what sort of a friend are you? I was just joking. How could you leave us up there? Don’t you
know I almost died?”
Shaun was fuming with anger as he stared at Kingsley.
Unbeknownst to Benjamin, they spent the rest of the night playing mobile games. However, their phone
batteries ran out only after two hours.
Kingsley, being the wuss that he was, wouldn’t let him have any shut-eye. In the end, both of them
stayed up all night.
When it was finally dawn, they hastily made their way down the mountain, bought breakfast, and
headed right over.
“You’re fine now, aren’t you?” Benjamin said harshly.
He then got up and made his way to the restroom.
