Arissa had just switched on her computer to work when Benjamin came in.

Ethen was behind him, updating him about his schedule.

She glanced at Benjamin and met his dark gaze. Suddenly, her cheeks grew warm.

“You're here?” Benjamin asked as he made his way to her desk.

“Mm!” Arissa bobbed her head. She refrained from speaking further as he was occupied.

Benjamin sized her up before he spun on his heels and returned to his desk.

Ethen gave Arissa a nod in greeting before continuing to report to Benjamin.

“Coffee!” Benjamin retrieved his cup and tapped on his desk to get her attention.

Arissa looked up to see him concentrating on listening to Ethen's report.

Rising to her feet, she got his cup and went to the bar to brew some coffee for him.

As Ethen was also here, she brewed more coffee than usual.

Arissa served Benjamin and Ethen each a cup of coffee. She first filled up Benjamin's cup, then poured one for Ethen.

She set Benjamin's cup down and then put another cup in front of Ethen.

“Mr. Frank, have some coffee!”

“Thank you, Mrs. Graham!”

Arissa felt embarrassed to hear that. “Just call me Ms. York at work.”

Ethen merely flashed a smile.

He noticed Benjamin looking at him and turned to meet his eyes.
