Chapter 773 Stop Kicking
Arissa’s heart was still pounding in shock. An ominous black 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 flashed 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 while later, 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 me later.

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 would come and rescue him from
hell. Alas, 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 glare, and he flashed 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 related 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 to come in, and she started keeping a
distance from me ever since.

“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 collapsed. 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 while later, she was calm enough to get back to work.
