Chapter 785 Are You Jealous

“How do you know all this, anyway?” Benjamin asked with a frown, wondering which blabbermouth had spoken to Arissa.

“I was in the office cafeteria when I saw the news of your ribbon-cutting ceremony. Everyone was talking about it, so I heard a little here and there.”

This time, Benjamin’s frown deepened as a fresh swell of rage rose in him. “What did they all say?”

“They said the two of you were talking about marriage,” Arissa replied candidly.

“And you believed them?” Benjamin muttered, pursing his lips. Is that why she’s been distancing herself from me for the past two days?

Arissa looked him in the eye, unable to shake off the flicker of irritation buzzing through her.

How could I not have believed it? Photos of him and Rosetta were even trending on social media!

“Is that not the case?”

A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes as he leaned in. “Have you been throwing a tantrum because of that?”

“W-Who’s throwing a tantrum?”

“How dare you deny it!” Benjamin retorted while playfully pinching Arissa’s cheek.

The latter, however, ducked away and pretended not to care. “So, are you two discussing marriage or not?”

Benjamin raised his brows. “What do you think?”
