Chapter 809 Benjamin Takes Her To A Wedding

“What kind of tie is that?” Benjamin glanced at the tie she was holding, which obviously didn’t match his suit. After breaking out into a sheepish smile, she hurried back in to look for a different one. “Will this do?

After giving it a quick look, Benjamin bent forward in satisfaction. “Help me put it on.” Arissa’s eyes glazed over slightly when she caught sight of how dashing he looked.

Noticing the look in her eyes, Benjamin allowed his lips to curl up slightly. “Are you satisfied?”

Arissa snorted. “Can I return it to the manufacturer if I’m not?”

Benjamin cocked a brow. “Which part of me are you dissatisfied with?”

After scrutinizing him quickly, Arissa teased, “All of you!” Benjamin—amidst an exasperated snort—straightened his clothes and carried her bag for her. “Let’s go.”

Grunting in acknowledgment, Arissa followed him from behind. Benjamin, arm raised, gestured for her to take it, to which the smiling Arissa complied. Turning to look at her, Benjamin asked with concern, “Are you feeling better?”

“Yes, much better,” Arissa replied with flushed cheeks. Staring at her, Benjamin inquired firmly, “Did you apply the medication?”

His words utterly embarrassed Arissa. Can he stop talking about it?

“Yes.” Benjamin’s eyes darkened as he reminded, “Remember to apply it often so that you can recover quickly.” Arissa nodded. “I will.”

After leading her into the car, they rushed to the banquet venue. “Do you not need to prepare a gift?” Arissa looked at him.
