Chapter 774 Kingsley Deliberately Had Lunch With Arissa

I need to earn money to raise the kids. If I don’t complete my work, I’ll lose my salary and would’ve worked for him in vain. The thought made Arissa extremely furious. Why would I work for him without receiving anything in return?

Adrenaline coursed through Arissa’s veins as she threw herself into work. At noon, her colleagues informed her that it was time for lunch, but she merely grunted in acknowledgment and went back to work.

It wasn’t until her phone rang that she stopped working. “Hello?”

“Ms. York, come upstairs for lunch.” “No, thanks. I need to catch up with work,” Arissa told Ethen. She then returned to her work. Upstairs, Ethen turned to Benjamin and reported, “Ms. York needs to work and doesn’t have time to have lunch.”

Benjamin snorted. “Who told you to ask her to lunch?”

Ethen was surprised to get snubbed. Didn’t Mr. Graham acquiesce to it? He didn’t say anything when I made the call. Now, he’s blaming me for calling Ms. York.

Benjamin’s expression was grim as he ate his lunch. A few bites later, he stopped and said, “Clear these away!” “Mr. Graham, you only had a few bites,” Ethen reminded him. Benjamin’s irritation crackled. “I said, clear these away!”

Ethen let out a soft sigh. He walked over and was about to do as told when Kingsley showed up. “Benjamin, I taught the parents a lesson on your behalf. Oh? Did you prepare a spread because you knew I was coming?” Delighted, Kingsley took a seat and grabbed a fork to eat.
