Chapter 165 Benjamin Sent Me

Stunned, Ethen replied smilingly, "Ms. Adams, I am concerned about your image. People are watching. What will Benjamin think if he sees you behaving like this?"

Danna's expression changed, yet she continued to glower at Arissa fiercely.

After that, she tidied her clothes and hair.

She looked down on Arissa proudly and said, "Just you wait!"

Then, she put on her sunglasses, packed her things, and turned to leave.

Arissa glared at Danna's retreating figure as hatred simmered within her.

"Are you okay, Ms. York?" Ethen inquired with concern.

Danna had always been demure in Benjamin's presence. I didn't think she can be so bossy. She must have been putting up an act around Benjamin. If Gavin hadn't broken the news, none of us would have known that she's such a nasty woman.

Arissa looked back at Ethen and said, "I'm fine."

"Thank you for defending me."

"It's nothing. I was just doing my job."

Ethen smiled shyly. "Mr. Graham was worried about your safety, so he sent me. You have him to thank."

Benjamin?

Arissa frowned, feeling something shifting within her as she walked toward the exit.

Catching up to her, Ethen studied her for a moment. He eventually noticed her disbelief.

"I'm telling the truth. Mr. Graham was worried that Danna might bully you."

Arissa whipped her head around and asked, "How can you be sure that he's worried about me, and not afraid that I might be tormenting Danna?" Ethen had nothing to say to that.

Instead of going after Benjamin, Arissa stepped into her office once she arrived at the company.

She then took out the recording pen she had in her pocket.

She checked the contents and confirmed that it had recorded everything Danna told her.

Just you wait, Danna.

Determined, she plugged the pen into her computer to backup and save the files.

She could not get Danna's threats out of her head, so she called the children.

"Mommy!"

Zachary's cheerful voice came through.

"What are you up to, Sweetheart?"

The moment she heard her child's voice, her bad mood dissipated.

"We're resting, Mommy."

Zachary had yet to fall asleep, so he picked up her call on the balcony.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Arissa asked, "Where are your younger brothers? Is Gavin with you?"

"Yes, he is. The others have fallen asleep, including Gavin!"

Arissa let out a chuckle as she jested, "What are you doing staying awake?"

"I have things on my mind," Zachary uttered mysteriously.

Arching her brow, Arissa tried to pry for answers, but Zachary dismissed her concerns.

"Sweetheart, you need to listen closely to what I'm about to tell you."

Upon hearing her stern tone, Zachary responded in all seriousness, "I'm listening, Mommy. What is it?"

"Sweetheart, I met up with Danna just now. She admitted that-"

At that moment, she got a phone call from an unknown number.

Arissa hung it up and continued the conversation with Zachary. She said, "She was the one who separated us from Gavin. I worry that she might replace and harm you, so I need you to stay at home and steer clear from strangers. Keep an eye on everyone, even the people who you know. Do not trust anybody aside from me and Mr. Hinton."

"Got it, Mommy. You need to be careful too. We will protect ourselves."

Zachary furrowed his brows as he contemplated whether he should inform his mother that Benjamin's bodyguards had been following them.

Danna is a wicked woman. It's time he sends someone to protect Mommy.

"Mommy, did she hurt you?"

"No. On the contrary, I fought back when she tried to make me leave Benjamin."

Arissa didn't keep anything from Zachary. She wanted her children to exercise caution by telling them the truth.
