Chapter 743 Worried It Will Affect Your Mood

“Are you done with work?” Arissa caught up to Benjamin and locked her eyes on his handsome side profile. “Nope,”

the man muttered as he entered the elevator.



Without hesitation, Arissa followed in. He swept his gaze over her. “Do you know that the kids were bullied by

several parents in school?”

Immense shock surged within Arissa. “H-How did you find out about it?” The man arched an eyebrow and stared at

her fixedly. “So you knew too? Why didn’t you tell me?”

Arissa blinked and answered softly, “You look so busy, so I didn’t have the chance to tell you.” Benjamin snorted

lightly. “Why didn’t you tell me during lunch?”

“I was worried it’ll affect your mood.” Arissa eyed him briefly before looking away. The man’s gaze darkened.

“There’s no need to hide the children’s matters from me.”

“How did you learn about it?” She was full of curiosity. “Mr. William told me.”

Benjamin held her hand and brought her out of the elevator. Arissa came to an immediate revelation and gave a

slight nod. “But Mr. William didn’t tell me about it.”

“Then how did you know?” He turned to look at her. “I noticed that Tim was acting strangely and found out after

questioning the other kids,” uttered Arissa as she gave the man a look.

A glint flashed across his eyes. “I’m sure the kids didn’t want to worry you.”

Arissa nodded. “Those children have been expelled from school. I bet their parents wouldn’t just let things slide. I

wonder if they’ll talk bad about our kids.”

“Mr. William said he’ll watch closely and handle the problem well,” Benjamin comforted. Arissa responded with a

nod and followed him into the car.



Upon getting inside the car, Benjamin leaned back on his seat and shut his eyes. Taking note of his fatigue look,

Arissa inched closer and helped massage his temples.

At that, Benjamin opened his eyes and locked his deep gaze on the woman’s calm expression. His unusually intense

gaze made her heart skip a beat.

“You look so tired. Let me give you a massage,” Arissa softly explained. Benjamin closed his eyes again, hiding his

sharp gaze. She felt more at ease and continued with the massage.

Arissa only sat back to her seat when the car arrived at the school. Thinking that Benjamin had fallen asleep since

his eyes remained shut, she turned and opened the car door to get out. Little did she expect the man to follow her

out as well.

“Hmm?” Arissa cast him a confused expression. Benjamin turned to her and uttered, “Let’s go pick the children

up.”

Suppressing the sudden surge of shock within her, she quickly followed behind to fetch the kids from school. At the

school’s entrance, many kids were standing in one line with their bags, eagerly waiting for their parents to pick

them up.

Arissa craned her neck, attempting to search for the six children among the crowd. When she spotted the six of

them strolling out while carrying their bags, she quirked her lips into a smile and raised her hand to gesture to

them.

“Sweethearts!” Everyone at the venue, including all the children and the parents, directed their gazes toward Arissa

at once.

Benjamin, who was putting on his sunglasses, stretched his hand and gave her forehead a light flick. “Why did you

hit me?” Arissa glared at him, yelping in pain.

The man raised a brow at her slightly annoyed expression. “Keep it down.”

Only then did Arissa realize that everyone’s attention was on her. Embarrassed, she flashed a sheepish smile. Just

then, the six children ran out. “Mommy! Daddy!” Gavin yelled.

“Mommy!” Zachary and the others also greeted Arissa sweetly as they ran toward her. Elated, she hugged them.

“Slow down! Be careful!”

Watching the kids and Arissa hugging each other so tightly as though it was a long-awaited reunion, Benjamin was

incredibly envious.

Verily, Robert approached them. “Mr. Graham and Ms. York!” he greeted politely. “It’s my fault that the kids got

bullied in school today.”

“We can’t blame you for that, Mr. William. The kids told us that you’ve protected them.” Arissa did not find fault

with Robert. It’s beyond our control what those people want to say or do.

“Pay more attention to the children in the future,” Benjamin reminded in a deep voice. “Yes, I will, Mr. Graham.”

Robert quickly nodded in acknowledgment while looking apologetic.
