Do Not Keep Me Waiting For Too Long
Benjamin’s eyes darkened. “Are you going to retaliate?”
Arissa responded with a smile. “Of course not.”
He’s the boss. Of course, I’m not that stupid to step on his toes.
Instead of offending him, Arissa wanted to take this opportunity to cling to him.
Looking at the changes in her facial expression, Benjamin smirked. “Go and prepare a meal for me
then!”
Arissa looked around and realized they had reached home.
She put on a smile and opened the car door while carrying things in her hands.
She then ran over to Benjamin’s side and opened the door for him. “Watch your step, Mr. Graham.”
After taking a glance at her smiling face, Benjamin tidied his shirt, stepped out of the car, and entered
the house.
Arissa puckered her lips. This man must have gotten used to people serving him.
“Don’t keep me waiting for too long!”
Upon hearing that, Arissa who was deep in thought then caught up with him. “The butler has prepared
lunch for you, hasn’t he? I can cook dinner for you later!”
Benjamin narrowed his eyes and tilted his head aside. “I thought you said you’d do what I want? I want
you to cook something for me right now!”
Arissa pressed her lips and responded, “Okay!”
He’s just gonna ignore the lunch the butler prepared for him? What a waste.
“Mr. Graham, Ms. York, welcome home!”
“Carry these for me, will you?” Arissa handed the documents and luggage over to Edwin.
She then turned around and ran toward the kitchen.
“Are you feeling better, Mr. Graham?” Edwin studied Benjamin from head to toe and thought he looked
all right.
“Yes, I’m fine!” After taking a glance at the butler, he walked toward the living hall.
“Lunch is ready. Shall I invite Ms. York over?”
“Don’t worry. We’re not in a hurry.” Benjamin sat down on the couch.
Edwin then looked in Arissa’s direction. What is Mr. Graham doing here when Ms. York is heading to
the dining hall?
Edwin did not know Arissa was actually running to the kitchen.
After putting the things in one corner, Edwin went to the kitchen.
He got confused when he saw Arissa busy cooking. “What are you preparing? Lunch’s ready.”
“Mr. Graham wants me to cook something for him!” Arissa looked at Edwin and answered him with a
grin.
Edwin finally understood what was going on between the two. He smirked and said, “Let me help you,
Ms. York!”
“It’s all right. I can handle it myself. I’ll whip up something simple. Go and take a rest.” Arissa smiled.
“And please stop calling me Ms. York anymore. Call me Arissa or Issa!”
Edwin narrowed his eyes and teased, “I wish I could call you Mrs. Graham!”
His remark rendered Arissa speechless. “Please watch your words. Mr. Graham might blame you for
uttering nonsense.”
I don’t want people to assume that I made him call me Mrs. Graham.
“Mr. Graham wouldn’t mind. You’re the mother to the children, so technically speaking, it’s not wrong for
me to call you Mrs. Graham!” Edwin had grown fond of Arissa.
Arissa had given Mr. Graham five sons. No one else deserves the title more than her.
“Please, just call me Issa!”
Arissa responded with an awkward smile while continuing to prepare food for that bossy pants.
Since Benjamin had just recovered from an allergic reaction, Arissa avoided ingredients that were high
in protein. Instead, she made baked beef strips and mushroom soup.
Edwin, who was lending her a hand in the kitchen, was pleased to witness her culinary skills. “They
smell great. Do you cook all the time?”
Arissa looked at Edwin and nodded. “I’ll try to cook dinner if I get home early. Take-outs are not healthy
for the kids.”
Edwin grinned and nodded. “You must have taken good care of the kids.”
Edwin then brought the food to the dining table and removed the thermos covers from the other dishes.
Arissa too brought the soup out of the kitchen after turning off the stove.
“Careful, Ms. York. Put it down. I’ll carry the soup for you.”
“It’s fine. I’ll do it.” Arissa then placed the soup on the table.
The dishes filled the entire dining table. Arissa wondered if the two of them could finish them all.
“Lunch is ready!”
