    Chapter 742 He Does Not Mind It


    “Mmm-hmm,” Benjamin hummed a reply and continued devouring the pasta. Throughout all, the man


    ate his pasta gracefully without making any slurping noises.


    On the contrary, Arissa loved slurping her pasta as she believed it was tastier that way. She inevitably


    felt a little embarrassed as it seemed like she was being too noisy.


    Since she was not hungry in the first ce, she only ate a little chicken and barely any pasta. She was


    full after eating half a te. “Don’t force yourself if you’re too full,” Benjamin advised after catching a


    glimpse of Arissa rubbing her belly.


    “It’s a waste to throw it away.”


    Arissa nced at the pasta on her te. It’s quite tasty. It’ll be a waste to throw such tasty food away.


    Right then, a hand holding a fork reached over and scooped all the pasta up.


    Arissa stared at Benjamin in bewilderment. Does he not mind that I’ve eaten it? “Your eyes are about to


    pop out of their sockets,” Benjamin uttered without looking at her.


    Embarrassed, Arissa shifted her gaze away from him to her te of pasta. She realized there were


    only several strands of pasta left. She picked up the leftover strands of pasta with her fork and downed


    them with some sauce.


    Unable to control herself, she snuck a few more glimpses at Benjamin. Barely anyone could resist


    Benjamin’s handsome appearance. He was as pretty as a picture no matter what angle it was.


    It was, in fact, not appropriate to describe a man’s appearance as pretty. Yet, a term like “handsome”


    was not enough to express his visuals. To call him a piece of art was not an exaggeration.


    “Are you satisfied after staring at me like that?” All of a sudden, Benjamin turned and gazed at Arissa


    deeply. She awkwardly moved her line of sight away and changed the subject. “What were you busy


    with?”


    “There’s something wrong with a project.”

    Arissa was surprised since she thought Benjamin would not tell her anything. He actually exins it to


    me. “Have you settled it then?”


    “Yeah,” Benjamin replied with a nod.


    Arissa stared at him intently and became a little hesitant. He’s so busy with work that he can’t even


    have his meals on time. I better not tell him about the kids’ matter, lest he gets worried.


    “What is it that you wanted to tell me?” Benjamin put down the te, wiped his mouth, and leaned back


    on his seatzily.


    His rxed appearance made Arissa shake her head in dismissal. “It’s nothing. I’m just curious what


    were you busy with.”


    Noticing Benjamin’s firm stare, Arissa hastily averted her gaze and looked elsewhere.


    “Let me clean up!” Having said that, she hastily got up and began clearing the tes.


    “Is everything fine with Grandaunt?” Benjamin asked suddenly.


    “Hmm… Quite well, actually. I called Dr. Bailey, and he told me Grandaunt is feeling great.” Arissa then


    took the tes out to the cafeteria.


    Benjamin’s gaze followed her closely.


    Is she no longer angry with me? She even cares whether I’ve eaten or not. I guess she’s not angry


    anymore.


    The corners of Benjamin’s lips gradually quirked upward as those thoughts ran in his mind.


    On the other hand, Arissa returned to her office straight after sending the tes to the cafeteria.


    She tried calling Bradley but still could not get in touch with him. Without any other choice, she


    continued with her work and checked the media from time to time.


    Nevertheless, there was still no news regarding the school’s scandal when work ended.


    Arissa scrunched her brows. Could it be that those parents have stopped stirring problems?


    She packed her stuff and prepared to fetch the children from school.


    However, she had just stepped out of her office when she spotted Benjamin approaching her.


    “Is anything the matter, Mr. Graham?”


    “It’s nothing.” Benjamin cast her a quick look and leaned over to grab her bag from her. “Let’s leave


    together.”


    With that said, he turned and strode out.


    Though slightly taken aback, Arissa quickly trailed behind the man, ignoring the curious nces of the


    colleagues.


    After the two left, the crowd began whispering among themselves.


    “Is Mr. Graham and Ms. York in a rtionship?”


    “They look like they are! Mr. Graham even helped Ms. York carry her bag!”


    “How romantic! They even got off work together!”


    “I can’t believe Mr. Graham has such a gentle and caring side to him!”


    “If they’re really together, I think they make a good pair!”


    “What you think isn’t important. What’s important is that Mr. Graham and his family have to think that


    way.”
