Chapter 895 A Tiny Present From Benjamin

Arissa grinned. “I feel more at ease when I hold a file. Just tell me why you called me over!

I’ve got tons of work to do.”

“Why am I unaware of how busy you are when I’m your superior?” Benjamin leaned

forward and kissed her. Blushing, she hurriedly stepped aside. “Behave yourself!” she

warned.

However, her gentle voice only made him more delighted. His eyes sparkled as he pinched

her cheeks affectionately. “Are you feeling better?”

“Yeah!” Arissa responded softly while avoiding his gaze. “Sit down whenever you can

during work. If you’re tired, get some rest in the lounge upstairs,” Benjamin exhorted, his

gaze fixed on her.

Hearing that, Arissa glanced at him and flashed him a soft smile. “Got it.” In truth, it was

an empty promise on her side as she had no plans to come up to the lounge and rest in

case it triggered gossip.

“Anything else?” she asked. Arissa felt her face grow hot under the man’s gaze. Benjamin

stroked her head and said, “That’s all. You may leave now.”

Dumbfounded, Arissa voiced, “That’s all? Aren’t you going to tell me about the matters

discussed at the meeting?”

“It has nothing much to do with your department,” he answered. He then gave her a once-

over before returning to his desk and continuing working.

Meanwhile, Arissa twitched her lips as she eyed the man who was focused on his work. He

sounded so urgent when he summoned me just now. And now, he looks as if nothing’s

wrong. Impressive.

“I’m leaving!” she announced, purposely raising her voice.

To her dismay, Benjamin merely looked up and gave a gentle hum in response.

At that sight, Arissa pursed her lips and turned on her heels.

“Hey, come here for a while!” the man called out suddenly.

Arissa turned around to look at him. “What?”

“Come here,” instructed Benjamin as he motioned for her to approach.

Given no choice, she cast him a suspicious glance before walking over.

“Come here.” He beckoned her over again.

Arissa could not help but eye him suspiciously. What is he up to?

Benjamin’s sudden behavior deterred her from getting closer until she saw him opening

his drawer.

As he handed her a tiny present, she felt her heart skip a beat. Is this what I’m thinking?

Her heart raced, and excitement washed over her.

“What’s this?” she asked.

“Take a look for yourself.” With that, Benjamin retracted his gaze and continued reading

the documents.

Thus, Arissa put down her file and opened the box, only to be taken aback by its content.

I thought it was going to be a ring.

“Is this for me?” she asked, holding up the key.

Benjamin grunted an acknowledgment in response.

After studying it for a while, Arissa inquired, “What’s this key for?”

At that, he raised his gaze. His eyes bored into hers as he answered, “The key to the

Graham residence.”

The corners of Arissa’s mouth twitched. Why would I need the key when we have people

at home?

She shot Benjamin a glance and questioned, “We have people at home, don’t we? Is there

a need for me to have a key?”

“It’s the key to the study. Take good care of it,” he revealed while staring at her.

It finally dawned on Arissa, but she was still puzzled.

He could’ve given me this at home. Why is he giving me this now in the company?

As if noting her confusion, Benjamin explained, ”It’s a spare for you to keep in the office.”

“Oh, I see,” she responded and put it away immediately.

“I’ll get it from you if I can’t find mine,” he then uttered, glancing at her.

“Okay!” Arissa nodded.

After bidding him goodbye, she turned around to leave.

The whole time, Benjamin stared fixedly at her, his lips quirking slightly.

Moments later, he took out a satin box from the drawer and played with it before returning

it to its spot and carrying on with his work.

As for Arissa, she studied the exquisite key in the elevator, her lips curving into a faint

smile.

The study was the most important place in the house, for it contained the company’s and

the house’s important documents.

Benjamin handing her the key meant he had acknowledged her as the lady of the house.

That realization filled Arissa’s heart with bliss. Soon, she returned to her office to continue

working, totally oblivious that she was secretly being gossiped about.

Instead, she discovered that the argument between Aaron and Rosetta was trending on

the internet.
