Chapter 773


    Chapter 773 Stop Kicking


    Arissa’s heart was still pounding in shock. An ominous ck thundercloud of temper settled over


    Benjamin when he saw her frightened expression. “Get out!”


    Arissa’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly gathered her stuff and left the conference room. Rage


    seared through Benjamin as he proceeded to kick several other chairs.


    A look shed across Arissa’s eyes as she turned over her shoulder. Gazing into the man’s furious


    gaze, she forced herself to say, “Stop kicking the chairs. You don’t want to hurt yourself, do you?”


    Benjamin furrowed his brows as he realized his toes in his leather shoes were throbbing painfully.


    D*mn it! His chest heaved with anger. A whileter, he marched out of the conference room wearing an


    ugly scowl.


    D*mn it! She can affect my mood easily. “Mr. Graham, are you all right?” Ethen came to him hastily to


    show his employer some concern.


    He was envious that everyone else could escape to their offices, yet he still had to face his employer’s


    wrath. Mr. Graham is in a foul mood. If I don’t show my concern, he’ll vent his anger on meter.


    Benjamin gave him a frosty look. “What did you two talk about? Tell me every word.” Ethen shed a


    wry smile and followed Benjamin to the office on the top floor by taking the elevator.


    Without missing a word, he revealed their entire conversation to Benjamin. After he finished, he noticed


    Benjamin’s expression turning a shade darker. Ethen couldn’t help but pray that someone woulde


    and rescue him from hell. s, it was purely his wishful thinking.


    Ethen had no choice but to continue enduring the suffering. Benjamin’s chest was still heaving as rage


    pulsed through his veins. Ha! She didn’t even want to pacify me. Why did her attitude change


    suddenly?


    Benjamin recalled that she had been acting this way since this morning. He then connected it to the


    events that had happened two nights ago and froze instantly. Did she hear the phone conversation?


    His brows snapped together. Ethen peeked at his furious employer and asked softly, “Mr. Graham,


    what happened between you and Ms. York?”


    Benjamin shot him a re, and he shed a sheepish grin. “Mr. Graham, if you want this stalemate to


    end, you’ll have to figure out the reason,” Ethen reminded him.


    Ethen had been working under Benjamin for a long time. The only person capable of affecting


    Benjamin’s feelings was none other than Arissa.


    He refused to believe that Benjamin didn’t care about Arissa.


    In a low voice, he revealed, “Mr. Graham, Edwin told me Ms. York has been in a bad mood since


    yesterday.”


    Benjamin’s eyes narrowed a fraction. “Why?”


    As he didn’t seem angry anymore, Ethen ventured a bold guess. “Could it be rted to your sudden


    business trip? Perhaps Ms. York read about the news regarding you and Ms. Rosetta Adams and


    misunderstood things. It made the trending topics. Those who have a phone would have definitely seen


    it.”


    Benjamin’s frown deepened. Was that the reason? When I took Rosetta’s call two nights ago, she went


    out and even locked the kids’ room from the inside. Obviously, she didn’t want me toe in, and she


    started keeping a distance from me ever since.


    His eyes lit up as the anger in his heart faded away.


    “Mr. Graham, you need to sweet talk women. The more you argue with her, the more distant she will


    get,” Ethen advised.


    He dared not ask if Benjamin had romantic feelings for Rosetta and could only offer a piece of his


    advice.


    Hearing that, Benjamin glowered at him. “Your year-end bonus is gone for this year!”


    Ethen felt as if his entire world had copsed. My bonus, all gone?


    He cried pitifully, “Mr. Graham, I was showing my concern for you!”


    “Why did you suggest that lousy idea to her?” Benjamin snapped.


    She refused to do so, did she not? She didn’t give in at all.


    Ethen dared not refute him. “Got it.”


    Feeling annoyed, Benjamin gave him a dismissive wave. “Get out!”


    Back in her office, Arissa was distracted.


    She forced herself to focus on her work, but Benjamin’s furious face kept popping up in her mind.


    Grabbing the cushion, she hit it several times before managing to calm down.


    That b*stard. Why did he get mad at me?


    Arissa clenched her jaw and cursed Benjamin inwardly. A whileter, she was calm enough to get back


    to work.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
