Chapter 926 Arissa Was Beaten Up

As Benjamin didn’t call for Arissa to eat lunch with him, she went to the company’s cafeteria for lunch with her colleagues.

At first, she didn’t notice anything unusual. She thought everyone was just curious about a newcomer like her. After all, she didn’t show up for lunch at the cafeteria frequently.

However, Arissa began to feel strange after she caught a few people staring at her. They were whispering to themselves. How they looked at her wasn’t typical of how one would look at their new colleague, as there were disdain and mockery on their faces.

Arissa frowned. She had no way of finding out what was going on because she couldn’t hear what they were talking about.

At that moment, two women sat down on the table behind her. It seemed like they had increased the volume of their voices intentionally.

“Shameless woman. She is just a mistress, yet she is out here showing off like no one else could afford the ring she is wearing.”

“Why does our company hire anyone at will? She will affect the company image!”

“I wonder who her backer is. She had just joined our company, yet she always skipped work. Our boss doesn’t scold her for it too. It seems like someone powerful is backing her!”

Arissa furrowed her brows. She had a feeling these people were talking behind her back.

I’m not being sensitive. These people are too bold. Wow, the way they looked at me is like they want me to know that they are talking about me.
