Chapter 776 Why Did He Ask Me To Go Up
Seeing that Benjamin had turned crimson with fury, Kingsley teased, “Benjamin, you’re quick-tempered as ever. If you don’t control yourself, it’ll be too late for you when you scare Arissa away.”
“Ethen!” Benjamin called out. Ethen entered the office hastily. “Mr. Graham!” “Throw him out now!” Benjamin fumed.
Even though Ethen could not help feeling pity for Kingsley, he had no choice but to step forward respectfully. “Mr. Watts, this way, please.”
“Hmph! How could you repay my kindness by tossing me aside? Fine. Don’t you ever ask for my help again!” Kingsley felt dejected. In an instant, Benjamin shot him a piercing look.
Lowering his voice, Ethen reminded Kingsley, “Mr. Watts, I was the one who sought your help. It has nothing to do with Mr. Graham.”
“Pfft! You’re just obeying his orders.” Kingsley rolled his eyes at Ethen, then turned to Benjamin. “Benjamin, heed my advice and talk things out with Arissa. Women are not ones to be trifled with. If you drag it out for another day, it won’t be easy for you to appease her.”
“Mr. Watts, please!” Ethen urged Kingsley. He would have to go hard on Kingsley if Kingsley still refused to step out.
“Get your hands off me. I’ll go out myself!” Kingsley shrugged Ethen’s hand off and advanced toward the door. Just as he was about to step out, he turned around again as something came to him. “Are you attending the wedding ceremony tomorrow?”
There was a flicker of inexplicit emotion in Benjamin’s eyes, but he did not utter any words. Kingsley looked at him. “Let me know if you are planning to go. We can go together. But if you don’t feel like going, I’ll bring a gift over on your behalf.”
“That won’t be necessary!” Benjamin rejected coldly. Kingsley was flabbergasted. What does he mean?
He was about to ask something when Benjamin glowered at him. “Why are you still here?”
Kingsley pursed his lips and grumbled, “You b*stard. Don’t ever ask me to come here again! I’m going to look for Arissa!”
Benjamin’s face clouded over. He instructed Ethen, “Don’t ever let him step into our building again!” “Yes, Mr. Graham!” Ethen could only relay his message to the security department.
Kingsley almost burst a blood vessel, but he broke into a mischievous smile the next second. “Ethen, I’m sure as hell that Benjamin is green with envy now. Did you see that? He flipped out at once when I said I’m going to look for Arissa. Haha!”
Ethen took in his playful look and reminded him warily, “Mr. Watts, you’d better not get on Mr. Graham’s nerves. Otherwise, you might not have the chance to meet the kids again.”
“Pfft! Does he think he can easily scare me off? If he doesn’t allow me to meet them, I can always look for Arissa instead.” Kingsley snorted arrogantly.
Ethen shook his head as he sent Kingsley down. In actuality, he had to ensure the latter had stepped out of the building as instructed.
Upon leaving, Kingsley asked Ethen again, “Did Benjamin get in touch with that woman over the past two days?”
“No!” Ethen looked at Kingsley. “At least, I’m convinced he didn’t when I was with him.”
Kingsley nodded and patted Ethen’s shoulder. “Keep an eye on him. Don’t let the others take advantage of him.”
“I know!” Ethen only retracted his gaze and went back to Benjamin’s office after Kingsley’s retreating figure was out of sight.
“How are things going at the school?” Benjamin was very concerned about it. He vowed not to let those few kids’ parents off for picking on his children.
“There’s a positive twist for us after Mr. Watts suppressed the chaos online. I’ve also warned all the schools in Dellmoor not to accept those few kids. As for their parents, our lawyer has filed a lawsuit against them. At the same time, their companies have sacked them, and I bet no other companies will hire them again. One of them has a company, but their partner terminated their contract and switched to collaborate with us instead,” Ethen said.
Ha! They are only digging their own graves for picking on Mr. Graham’s children. Benjamin nodded. “Okay! Assign more bodyguards to protect Gavin and the others discreetly.”
“Yes, Mr. Graham!” Ethen nodded in acknowledgment and left after Benjamin gestured to him to leave. Benjamin took a few glances at the documents from the IT department.
With a glint in his eyes, he pressed the button of the internal line to call Arissa up. “Come up to my office now.” He hung up right after giving the instruction.
Arissa furrowed her brows. Why did he ask me to go up? Is it about work or other matters? Regardless, I’m in no position to go against his will. After regaining her composure, she went up with a pile of documents.
