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 place, she only ate a little chicken and barely any pasta. She was full after
eating half a plate. “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 glanced at the pasta on her plate. 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 plate of pasta. She realized there were only several

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 explains 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 plate, wiped his mouth, and leaned back on his seat
lazily.
His relaxed 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 plates.
“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
plates 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 plates to the cafeteria.

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 glances of the colleagues.
After the two left, the crowd began whispering among themselves.
“Is Mr. Graham and Ms. York in a relationship?”
“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.”
