The More the Merrier

Chapter 1037

Meeting Benjamin's intent gaze, Arissa blinked before blushing slightly.

Needless to say, she was embarrassed to tell him what she dreamed of him doing.

With his eyes fixated on her, Benjamin naturally spotted the shy look she sported. He could more or less surmise what she dreamed about.

Well, she was probably half-asleep earlier and mistook the scene of me waking her up as a dream.

Tapping the tip of her nose affectionately, he jerked his chin at her, motioning for her to sit up. "Get up and watch the sunset."

It was only with his reminder that Arissa noticed the scenery around her.

The instant she turned her head, she was greeted by the sight of orange hues coloring the entire sky. It was beyond beautiful. "Wow! This is simply incredible!"

She bolted upright, her eyes brimming with delight and wonder.

Before she knew it, she had already gotten to her feet while gazing at the lovely sunset on the horizon.

After admiring the view for a while, she couldn't help taking out her phone and snapping several photos.

Benjamin snagged a bottle of water and handed it to her. Glancing at him, Arissa took it and drank a sip. Subsequently, the man fed her some food.

She instinctively opened her mouth and ate it. The heavenly taste of the food jolted her back to reality, and she swung her gaze at the pastry in his hand. "What is this made of? It's delicious!"

When Benjamin saw the way she was salivating over the food, a smile curved his lips. "I don't know."

At that, Arissa studied him closely.

As he didn't seem to be lying to her, she snatched it from him and took another bite. "Would you like some?"

Benjamin bent down and motioned for her to feed him.

With a giggle, Arissa brought the pastry to his mouth.

Benjamin ate the rest of it. While he was at it, the tip of his tongue accidentally swiped over her fingers. A bolt of electricity shot through her fingertips, and they flinched slightly.

A hint of scarlet stained her cheeks. Her eyes flickering, she threw him a glare.

On the contrary, a devilish smirk played on Benjamin's lips. "You seem to love glaring at me, huh?”

Snorting, Arissa snapped her head away. Gazing out at the scenery in the distance, she huffed, "That's because you love doing wicked things all the time!"

Benjamin quirked a brow. A half-smile showed in his eyes, tinged with a hint of mischief.

He deliberately lowered his voice. "What wicked things have I done?"

A burst of warmth brushed past Arissa's ear, making it tingle. Her heart started pounding.

"You know what!"

Benjamin's eyes darkened a shade. Her embarrassed expression was so enticing that he couldn't resist leaning down and planting a peck on her cheek. Arissa's eyelashes quivered.

Stroking her head, Benjamin pulled her down to the ground and fed her some fruits.

Arissa beamed as her eyes roved over the man's handsome countenance. "Did you get any sleep?"

"I napped for a bit."

In a good mood, Benjamin grinned.

Arissa nestled in his arms. As they ate, they admired the breathtaking view.

"It's really beautiful here!"

It looks just like a masterpiece by an expert painter!

A flock of birds flew past the horizon, creating a stunning visual effect.

"Yeah."

After Benjamin stared into the distance for some time, his gaze again alighted on her enthralling face.

Sensing his eyes on her, Arissa turned to him. "Why do you keep looking at me?"

"Is that not allowed?" Benjamin harrumphed domineeringly.

The corners of Arissa's mouth twitched, yet she nodded. "No, it's allowed. But you don't need to keep staring at me. Look at the lovely view instead!" "You're my lovely view!" Benjamin's voice was exceedingly seductive.

Arissa blinked, sensing her cheeks heating up.

Taking the bottle of water, she drank a few gulps.

Benjamin dipped his head and kissed her, his eyes dancing with mirth.

They stayed there for another hour until the sun had set before leaving the horse ranch.

"Sit tight."

Benjamin held Arissa tightly while the latter snuggled in his arms. She bobbed her head. "I'm ready." "Giddy-up!"

With a single kick on Black Wind's rump from Benjamin, the horse immediately broke into a gallop.

Arissa wasn't sure whether it was because she had eaten or for some other reason, but her stomach started cramping slightly.

The pain wasn't that bad, so she didn't pay it much mind.

The moment Benjamin noticed that her face was a touch pale, his pupils constricted.

"What's wrong? Where are you hurting?"

By then, Arissa was clutching her stomach, seemingly in an even worse condition than earlier.
