Chapter 593 He Is An Iceberg
Kingsley was observant. He noticed her blush and smiled. “He didn’t kiss you?”
Arissa did not know what to say.
This jerk. No wonder Benjamin told me to ignore him.
She walked away from him and went to accompany Mary.
Kingsley chuckled quietly.
Shaun patted Kingsley’s shoulder and whispered in warning, “Be careful. Benjamin might come after you!”
Kingsley shrugged and replied, “I didn’t do anything!”
Shaun scoffed.
“If I’m not mistaken, they were cuddling on the couch…” Kingsley whispered to Shaun.
“Who were cuddling?” Jesse looked up at Kingsley and Shaun curiously.
Kingsley looked at Jesse’s curious gaze and smiled. He held Shaun closer and said, “We were cuddling.”
Jesse looked disgusted and ran to Jasper.
“Mr. Watts, I never knew you were someone like that!” Jasper said disdainfully.
Oliver looked disgusted too.
Zachary and Gavin also looked aghast upon hearing Kingsley. “What a sissy. How embarrassing!”
Shaun quickly pushed Kingsley away and stood by the side, not wanting the children to think he was a sissy.
On the other hand, Kingsley’s expression darkened, and he argued, “How is that sissy?”
“Everyone can see that is sissy! Hmph!” Gavin looked disgusted.
His reply prompted Kingsley to tear up in exasperation.
Arissa let out an amused chuckle.
“Mr. Watts, you won’t be able to find a wife if you behave like this!” Jesse took a good look at Kingsley and reminded him solemnly.
Shaun and the others could not help but laugh upon hearing that.
“Haha!” Even Mary could not help laughing. “Kingsley is elegant and good-looking. However, a man should be more manly.”
Initially, Kingsley felt comforted by Mary’s words but hearing the second half of her sentence made him dejected again.
“Mdm. Mary, I’m not usually like this. I was only joking, so please don’t misunderstand!” Kingsley explained.
Mary chuckled.
However, Gavin continued to roast him and said, “You are usually like this!”
Kingsley glared at Gavin. “Gavin, you are rude today. How can you say that? Am I usually like that?”
“Yes, you are extremely sissy compared to Daddy!” Gavin replied.
“Haha!” Arissa did not stop herself from laughing.
Kingsley flushed with fury. “Your father is a poker-faced iceberg. Don’t you know that is abnormal?”
Suddenly, the air turned tense and shrouded with a sense of threat.
Kingsley felt his senses tingling and turned around to find himself looking straight into Benjamin’s chilling gaze. He instantly felt numb with fear, and a chill spread down his neck.
Then, his mouth twitched and formed an awkward smile. “Benjamin, it was all a joke. I wasn’t criticizing you!”
Benjamin glared at him coldly and turned to Shaun. “Can you prescribe some medicine to keep him from rambling like a lunatic?”
“I’ll prescribe some for him soon!” Shaun answered.
Kingsley’s expression darkened. However, he did not say anything when he saw Benjamin’s stern gaze.
I’m not sick. Why should I take medicine?
Meanwhile, Arissa watched their interactions and found them funny.
“Arissa, come here!” Benjamin called Arissa over.
Arissa looked at Benjamin in confusion and went to him.
Benjamin glanced at his watch and said, “I will go out for a while. You are to stay here and not go anywhere!”
Arissa looked at him strangely. “You should go ahead and deal with your matter. I will stay here to accompany Grandaunt!”
Benjamin’s gaze flickered, and he frowned. “Grandaunt?”
Arissa smiled and explained that she accepted Mary as family and decided to call her Grandaunt.
Benjamin understood and nodded. “Don’t go anywhere!”
Arissa pursed her lips. “Okay, I understand!”
Benjamin took another glance at her before leaving with Ethen.
Arissa was curious about where they were going.
Meanwhile, Kingsley saw that Benjamin was leaving and caught up with him. “Benjamin, where are you going?”
Benjamin glared at him. “Are you free?”
Kingsley blinked bewilderedly. “I’m all right!”
Benjamin glanced at Ethen, and Ethen immediately pulled Kingsley aside.
“Mr. Watts, we are in the midst of an urgent matter, so stop fooling around! Otherwise, you give us no choice but to send you to the desert area to pioneer a business!” Ethen said.
