Chapter 772 Did I Say You Can Leave

Ethen offered a suggestion: Why don’t you pretend to have a stomachache?

Arissa was dumbfounded. If Benjamin discovers I’m lying, I’ll be doomed. Besides, what use is it to pretend to be ill?

Benjamin’s wintry gaze swept over and landed on them both. “Why are you exchanging notes in the conference room?”

Ethen started sweating bullets. Arissa didn’t expect that Benjamin’s gaze was sharp enough to catch them exchanging notes during the meeting. An awkward silence ensued as everyone stared at them.

“Give it to me!” Benjamin narrowed his eyes in an imposing manner. Ethen could scarcely restrain himself from beating his brains out. Mr. Graham caught us in the act. He will definitely punish me. He shot Arissa an imploring look.

Seeing how scared Ethen was, Arissa turned to look at Benjamin. “It was our fault for not focusing on the meeting. Punish me if you want to! I was the one who gave Mr. Frank the note.”

The note was still with her. Benjamin’s expression turned dark. “Where did you learn how to take the rap for someone else’s mistake?”

Ethen hastily explained, “Mr. Graham, this has nothing to do with Ms. York. I was the one who started the conversation!”

Benjamin’s face was as black as a kettle when he saw them defending each other. Everyone else dared not utter a word. “What did you talk about? Share it with us!” Benjamin asked as an icy sneer flitted across his lips.

I shouldn’t have talked to Ms. York. It was my fault she got blamed, Ethen groaned in despair. Arissa glanced at Benjamin. “You should read it yourself.”
