Seeing that Arissa seemed to have entered the bathroom, Edwin pressed his ear against the wall but could not hear anything.

The only conclusion he got was that the house had outstanding soundproofing.

Since he failed to hear anything, he went back downstairs.

Arissa was unaware that Edwin secretly observed whether she threw up her medication as she was preoccupied with changing into a set of clothes that was different from her usual style.

Then, she grabbed a straw hat and a pair of sunglasses before heading downstairs.

"Mrs. Graham, the car is ready."

Edwin was all smiles as he waited for her to arrive downstairs. In his hand was the food container.

Arissa glanced at him and felt he was much friendlier compared to before.

Reciprocating the smile, she replied, "Edwin, I'm ready too. Let's go!"

"All right!"

Edwin followed her and closed the car door for her after she got into the car.

He then sat in the front passenger seat and asked the driver to drop them off at the company.

Gazing at Edwin, Arissa asked, "Edwin, do you want to deliver the food container to Mr. Graham?"

He turned around and replied smilingly, "Mrs. Graham, it's more sincere if you deliver the breakfast to him. If Mr. Graham is in a good mood, everything is negotiable!"

She raised her eyebrows and said, "I have nothing to talk to him!”

With a broad smile on his face, he began analyzing the situation. "Well, there must be a time when you wish to request something, right? For example, aren't you planning to take a leave to keep your grandaunt company? Your request will likely be granted if Mr. Graham is in a good mood. Besides, our company staff will be grateful to you!"

The corners of Arissa's lips twitched once she heard it.

Am I that powerful? I mean, Benjamin still blows his top whenever he's angry!

When the car pulled over at Graham Group's entrance, she stared at the door, feeling hesitant.

"Mrs. Graham, we've arrived," Edwin said.

His deliberate reminder caused Arissa to smile at him awkwardly. Left with no choice, she put on her hat and sunglasses before getting out of the car.

Edwin chuckled as he took in her attire.

The curvy Arissa became the center of attention as soon as she appeared in everyone's line of sight.

At that time, even the security guards at the entrance failed to recognize her.

Everyone was shocked upon seeing Edwin hand the lunch box to Arissa in a respectful manner.

Who is this beautiful lady? Moreover, the butler of the Graham residence was the one who brought her here.

They recognized her only after hearing Edwin address her as "Mrs. Graham."

Isn't she the mother of Mr. Graham's children, our future boss lady?

Meanwhile, Arissa took the food container and said, "Edwin, please wait for me here. I'll come down very soon."

"Sure, Mrs. Graham!" Edwin responded without hesitation, for he did not intend to follow her to Benjamin's office anyway.

Arissa ignored the bright smile on his face and turned around to head toward the building.

"Good morning, Mrs. Graham!"

When the bodyguards at the entrance greeted her with a grin, the security guards followed suit respectfully.

Arissa was a little taken aback upon hearing it. In an instant, she turned around and said, "Just call me Ms. York!"

The bodyguards beamed at her.

Thus, she ignored them and quickened her pace.

At the sight of Arissa, the receptionist was startled and could not look away.

Who is this beautiful lady? She's so pretty that even Ms. Adams is no match for her. Apart from her beauty, she also has a regal bearing.

With a quirk of her red lips, Arissa nodded at the receptionist as a greeting before continuing toward the elevator.

By the time the latter came to their senses and wanted to stop her, Arissa had entered the elevator.

"Hey! Miss..."

Edwin came up to the receptionist and instructed sternly, "Don't try to stop her when you see her come here in the future!"

The receptionist recognized him as Benjamin's butler, so they asked, "Who is she?"

It was impossible for them to suppress their curiosity.

"Don't stick your nose into other people's business. An announcement will be made when the time is ripe. Before that happens, you're not allowed to tell others about it," Edwin warned.

After all, he knew Arissa did not want the employees at the company to know her identity, so he issued a warning in her stead.

"Understood!" The receptionist made a mental note.

With that, Edwin turned around and headed back to the car to wait for Arissa.

The top floor was dead silent when Arissa arrived.

After straightening her clothes, she stealthily walked toward the CEO's office.

Then, she craned her neck to peek around the office and even checked out the corners, yet Benjamin was nowhere in sight.

Is he in the middle of a meeting?

Little did she know that someone was observing her every action.
