Chapter 25 Jealousy Benjamin tapped on his thigh and lowered his gaze, making Arissa even more nervous as she watched me.
âWhy would your brother have my number?â
Arissaâs heart skipped a beat. She did not know how to elaborate the lie, and even if she were to tell him the truth now, there would be no guarantee he would believe her.
Furthermore, Benjamin seemed to suspect that she did it.
âPerhaps it was a coincidence?â
Benjamin scoffed.
Arissa was at a loss for words. âIt really isnât me who sent that, but Iâll apologize to you since Iâm responsible for his misdemeanor. I sincerely apologize for all of the inconvenience weâve caused you.â
Arissa was Zacharyâs mother, and hence, she was obliged to apologize on his behalf.
âHow about I give him a call to ask? Iâll lecture him about this when I get home. Iâm terribly sorry for the inconvenience.â
How brave of him to send a text to Benjamin. I was wondering why he would think of calling me here, and this is why!
âThereâs no need.â
Benjamin no longer wanted to know, and the call would not change a thing.
If she did it, she would have it all planned out. The call will be just for show.
Arissa watched his expression of distrust and was speechless. She no longer wished to explain herself. She, too, would not believe what she had said if the roles were reversed.
âMr. Graham, if you called me here today because of this, you can go ahead and reject me. However, I hope that you could give me a chance. I believe that you wonât be disappointed with my capabilities should you hire me!â
I should at least fight for it since Iâm already here.
Benjamin watched as Arissa pitched herself, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smirk. Sheâs finally revealing her intentions?
âSo confident?â
Arissa listened to his arrogant tone and suppressed her dissatisfaction. âI have the right to be confident. Mr. Graham, what do you say? Letâs be direct and not waste each otherâs time.â
Benjaminâs eyes darkened. No one had ever spoken to him that way, and she was the first.
âEthen!â he shouted.
A short while later, Ethen ran into the room.
He looked at them in curiosity. âMr. Graham, you called?â
âBring the computer over here and test her. If she passes, hire her. If not, show her the door!â
Benjamin ultimately decided to give her a shot since she had gone through a lot of trouble for the opportunity.
Arissa was surprised as she assumed the man would not even consider giving her a chance. He agreed?
Ethen smiled and quickly grabbed the computer. âMs. York, this way, please!â
Arissa walked over and sat in front of the office desk. She opened the portal and started maneuvering.
She designed two programs to attack one another.
Ethen was impressed when he saw that. âMs. York, how did you think about coming up with this?â
Arissa was fully absorbed in her task, going against her own system.
Benjaminâs eyes flashed when he saw Ethenâs amazement and approached them.
He scanned through it, and his eyes immediately lit up. I have to admit it. This woman does have the skills.
As Benjamin continued staring at Arissa, he fell deep into thought. Could she be the one who hacked my computer last night?
His handsome face darkened at the thought.
Ethen was enjoying himself and did not notice Benjaminâs expression.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 24 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You He excitedly said to him, âMr. Graham, donât you agree that Ms. Yorkâs skills are extraordinary!?â
Jackpot. With her, the companyâs Engineering Department will definitely level up and become indestructible.
Benjamin glared daggers at his assistant, and his face darkened further when he saw that Ethenâs face was full of admiration.
He was oddly unhappy.
Arissaâs fingers flew across the keyboard. She managed to beat the complicated system not long after.
Turning to look at Benjamin, she asked quietly, âMr. Graham, what do you think?â
The man said nothing in response and merely stared at her intently.
