Chapter 645 Back To Dellmoor
Benjamin’s eyes flashed. “Over who’s a better pilot.”
Arissa laughed. “I don’t even know how to fly a plane!”
“You are suspiciously humble about it. Are you afraid I might find out how good you actually are?”
Benjamin stepped closer as he spoke. His warm breath brushed over her ears and made them numb.
Arissa’s cheeks flushed against her will. She edged away as little as she dared and smiled awkwardly upon meeting
Tim’s curious gaze.
“Enjoy yourselves, boys. I’m heading back.” She turned to return to the cabin.
Tim blinked. Could Mommy by shy?
Benjamin’s deep eyes followed Arissa. They only lowered to the boy in his arms after she disappeared from sight.
“Shall we return as well, Tim?” Benjamin asked in a slightly raised voice upon noticing that his son was also staring
at Arissa.
Tim nodded. “Yeah, let’s head back!”

Benjamin lifted him as they went in Arissa’s wake. Spread luxuriously across his father’s broad shoulders, Tim gazed
longingly at the cockpit.
Upon returning to her seat, Arissa shut her eyes for some much-needed rest.
Sensing Benjamin’s return, she opened them again and found the man seated next to her with their son in his
arms.
“Give him to me!” She reached out with both arms.
Benjamin glanced at her. “Weren’t you just about to take a nap?”
Tim glanced at Benjamin. “I can sit by myself, Mr. Graham,” he whispered.
Benjamin looked down at his son. “As you wish, then,” he said before getting up and placing the boy in the seat he
had previously occupied before buckling him in.
When he turned around, he saw Arissa craning her neck to gaze at their son.
Benjamin reached out and playfully rapped her forehead with his knuckles. “What are you looking at? Go to sleep!”
Arissa rubbed her forehead and glowered angrily at him.
“Cover Tim up with a quilt.”
Benjamin went away to procure a quilt to drape over the boy. “Get some sleep, Tim,” he murmured. “It’ll be over
another hour to get home.”
Tim nodded obediently and burrowed himself further in his seat before looking around.
Benjamin caressed his head lovingly and covered Arissa with another quilt before resuming his seat.
She was touched by his gesture.
Arissa stole several glances at the man throughout the plane ride. When Benjamin began to work, she became
even more emboldened to stare at him.
Look at those cheekbones. Even axes aren’t as sharp as they are. However, his regal presence is even more
exciting than his appearance.
The longer she studied his cheeks, the hotter hers became.
Benjamin felt her gaze and turned his head in her direction. His gaze deepened at the sight of her flushed cheeks.
Returning to her senses abruptly, Arissa was horrified to find the man’s fiery gaze catching her in her act.
Her heart throbbing with panic, she hurriedly looked away while ignoring her burning ears.
Benjamin’s thin lips curled into a smile at her embarrassment.
Arissa’s pulse quickened further still at the man’s unrelenting gaze.
Instinctively reaching for her phone for something else to do, she was dismayed to find it turned off for the flight.
Detecting a movement in her peripheral vision, Arissa looked up and saw Benjamin waving a tablet at her.
“You can watch a movie!” he mouthed.
Arissa reached outward and took it from him. After a quick glance at the children, she found them all, Gavin and
Zachary included, sound asleep.

Allowing the child to succumb to his drowsiness, Arissa put on earplugs and watched a movie alone, with Benjamin
lost in work next to her.
At some point through the movie, Arissa fell asleep.
Benjamin noticed that she was cramped in her seat in such a way that would guarantee a neck cramp when she
woke up.
Without hesitation, he leaned her body against his and rearranged the quilt over her before resuming work.
Arissa’s steady breath tickled him from time to time as it brushed against his chest through the gap in his shirt
buttons.
Benjamin’s dark eyes narrowed as he felt his own breathing instantly disrupted.
Glancing at the soundly sleeping woman and her peaceful expression, he could not help noticing how attractive her
cheeks looked with their natural pink tinge when she became excited. He was so mesmerized by her beauty that he
could not take his eyes off her.
Benjamin did not look away until a sudden sound of Gavin getting up to use the washroom roused him from his
reverie.
He watched as his son unbuckle his seat belt and walked toward the bathroom.
“Do you need me to come with you, Gavin?” Benjamin asked in a low voice.
