Chapter 92 An Inquiry
“All right, Ms. York. We will head back first then.” Arissa’s colleagues decided to take a stroll back to the office as there was still some time to spare. Besides that, it would help with digesting the food they ate.
Arissa nodded and got into the car subsequently.
Once both Arissa and Gavin were seated in the car, Benjamin got into the car as well and closed the car door behind him.
Arissa instantly found the spacious interior of the car cramped as he got in.
On the other hand, Kingsley was not welcomed. He was just about to get into the passenger’s seat when he heard Benjamin’s order. “Get down!”
Arissa shifted her gaze from Benjamin to Kingsley. She gave Kingsley an empathetic look.
Kingsley was nonplussed. He turned to look in Benjamin’s direction. “Boss, if you don’t give me a ride, how am I supposed to head back to the office?”
“Get down the car. I’m not going where you are going,” Benjamin replied with a cold look.
“Fine! I’ll get off the car,” Kingsley whined as he looked at them.
Once he was outside, he shouted and waved his hand. “Arissa, let’s grab a drink when you are free!”
Arissa did not respond to him.
Nevertheless, she received a stern stare from Benjamin. Arissa did not know what she did wrongly.
“Start the car!” Benjamin told the driver.
Kingsley rubbed his nose as the car drove away. He swiftly shouted to the colleagues who had not gone too far away, “Hey, wait for me!”
Kingsley had no choice but to walk to the office with them. This was because his car was still parked in Graham Group.
Once he caught up with them, he put his arms around the technicians’ arms. “Shall we continue drinking tonight?”
“Since you asked, of course we’ll go!”
“No problem!”
Meanwhile, Arissa was chatting with Gavin in the car. She looked at him lovingly.
At the same time, she felt an intimidating stare from the side. However, when she looked at Benjamin, the stony-faced man was looking up ahead. Arissa shuddered at her own thoughts.
She retracted her gaze and asked, “Gavin, which school are you studying at?”
Gavin smiled mysteriously. “You’ll know very soon when we reach there.”
She laughed. “So mysterious!”
Gavin chuckled. He was sure that Arissa would be surprised.
As expected, Arissa looked shocked when they reached Gavin’s school. She looked at the familiar surroundings and asked, “This is your school?”
Benjamin’s expression became slightly more solemn than before.
“That’s right. Goodbye, Ms. York!” Gavin raised his head and pecked Arissa’s cheek.
Arissa planted a kiss on his cheek as well. Gavin then said happily, “Daddy, I’m going in. Send Ms. York back to the office. Goodbye!”
“All right,” Benjamin responded. He did not intend to get off the car.
Gavin did not mind at all. He closed the car door after getting off the car.
“Goodbye, Ms. York! Goodbye, Daddy!”
“Goodbye!” Arissa waved her hand as she replied with a sweet tone.
She did not know the children were all studying in the same school.
Gavin’s expression turned cool as he entered the school.
He quickly went to find Zachary and the others. Everyone was envious of him after knowing that he had lunch with Arissa.
Arissa leaned back onto the car seat to relax as the car headed to the office.
Suddenly, a stern voice rang out. “Arissa York!”
Her body stiffened. “Yes, Mr. Graham?”
“Are you anxious?” Benjamin stared at her.
Arissa was speechless. Anyone would be shocked if their full names were called abruptly.
Without replying to his question, she queried, “Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Graham?”
Benjamin continued to stare at her with his cold, distant look.
Arissa froze. After some observations, she realized he was not going to say anything. Hence, she decided to use this opportunity to clarify her doubt. She cleared her throat and asked, “Mr. Graham, there’s something I wish to ask you.”
Benjamin’s gaze on her remained intense. He did not reply to her. At this instant, Arissa felt the pressure in the air.
She sized him up and met his dark eyes. It was as if they were ready to pierce through her. Her heart skipped a beat.
This man definitely radiated a strong aura.
“What is it?” A low voice echoed in the quiet car.
