A Woman Called Him At Midnight
A man and a woman were alone in the room in the dead of night, rendering the atmosphere as
suggestive as ever. Under such circumstances, Arissa could feel her heart flutter. She stole a few
glances at the man while drying her hair with a towel.
Benjamin was leaning lazily on the headboard. A few buttons on his black shirt were undone, revealing
his muscular, attractive abs. She gulped and wondered why he summoned her over.
All of a sudden, he let out a soft grunt, his deep tone almost bewitching her. She suppressed her
emotions and put an end to the sensual vibe by saying, “Go take your bath now!”
When he realized that she showed no intention of heeding his order, he got up and strode over to her.
Arissa was dumbfounded. Before she knew it, Benjamin had already bent over to pick her up.
Her eyes widened, and she stared at Benjamin in disbelief.
She felt suffocated upon seeing how close her face was to his.
Without hesitation, Benjamin pinned her on the bed and began kissing her passionately.
As she was enveloped by the man’s hormonal scent, she felt her mind go blank.
Just as the man was about to take things a step further, his phone began ringing.
Immediately, Arissa regained her senses. She pushed the man’s chest and said breathily, “Your phone
is ringing!”
He bit the corner of her lips and deepened the kiss, seemingly couldn’t be bothered to take the call.
Worried that the call might be about something urgent, Arissa patted the man’s back, prompting him to
take the call.
The phone continued ringing incessantly, ruining the mood.
After a while, Benjamin finally stopped what he was doing and fished his phone out of his pocket. “Who
is it?”
Anyone could hear the irritation in his voice.
“Benjamin…”
When Benjamin heard the voice, he froze before heading to the balcony to take the call.
“Yes?” His voice sounded extra gentle.
A look of confusion flickered across Arissa’s eyes. The distinct change in his attitude was too evident to
ignore.
As she stared at the man’s tall figure on the balcony, she felt her heart aching, as if pricked by needles.
She was quite sure she heard a woman’s voice coming from the other end of the line.
All of a sudden, she felt too embarrassed to still remain in that room. Thus, she slipped out of bed and
headed to the children’s bedroom.
Moments later, Benjamin ended the call and returned to the bedroom. To his surprise, he found the
room empty.
He left his phone on the bedside table and went to take his bath, but when he came back out, Arissa
still didn’t return.
His forehead creased.
Having a vague idea of where she might be, he headed to the children’s room and twisted the door
handle. Alas, the door was locked from the inside.
His frown deepened, and he could only return to his bedroom.
Arissa glanced at the door before turning to hug the children.
She felt a surge of mixed emotions.
Who is that lady on the call? Benjamin has never been so gentle to anyone before. Is it someone he
fancies?
She could not stop her mind from running wild.
Women were sensitive creatures, and most of the time, their hunch would turn out to be true.
After a long while, Arissa finally managed to fall asleep.
Benjamin found it hard to get any sleep as well. He tossed and turned in bed multiple times throughout
the night, feeling frustrated.
He kept staring at the door, sulking quietly.
Is that woman seriously sleeping in the kids’ room?
Exasperated, Benjamin turned his back against the door.
At that moment, his phone lit up.
It was a message from an unknown number that read: Benjamin, we should meet up.
An inexplicable look flashed in his eyes as he read the message before putting his phone back onto the
nightstand with its screen facing down.
It was almost dawn when he finally fell asleep.
The next morning, Arissa rose from bed and woke the children up. After helping them to freshen up,
she headed back to the master’s bedroom to change.
She stood at the door and hesitated for a while before entering.
However, the room was empty.
Stunned, she stood in the doorway. Did Benjamin go out for a run? Or did he head out last night?
Her lips curled into a bitter smile. She then changed her clothes and left the room.
“Kids, let’s go to the hospital to visit your great-grandaunt.”
“Okay!”
The children were all dressed in their school uniforms and were carrying backpacks.
Smiling warmly, Arissa brought them downstairs.
Edwin, who had prepared breakfast for them in advance, gestured for them to take their seats around
the dining table.
“You’re up early, Edwin.”
Arissa was surprised. Initially, she thought of bringing the children out for breakfast.
“You mentioned that all of you would be leaving the house earlier today, so I got up slightly earlier too.
Mrs. Graham, would you all like to eat breakfast now, or should I pack it for you guys to bring to the
hospital?” Edwin questioned with a smile.
