Chapter 751 He Is Probably Having IMS
After hanging up the phone, Arissa turned to speak to Benjamin, only to see him with an icy expression. That
startled her for a moment. Whoa! What a sudden change in mood!
“I’ve asked Mr. Frank to go and look for the document in your office. I’m certain I delivered it to you.” Even if he
wasn’t lying to me, perhaps the document had been misplaced. As such, I must get to the bottom of this matter.
“Got it,” Benjamin muttered a cursory reply, his voice cold and indifferent. Arissa eyed him for a moment. Pursing
her lips, she scooted back to the children’s side.
Similarly sensing Benjamin’s mood change, the six children stole a peek at him. “What’s wrong with Mr. Graham,
Mommy?” Jasper queried in a whisper.
In response, Arissa curled her lips. “He’s probably having IMS!”
At once, curiosity showed on the faces of all six children. “What’s IMS, Mommy?”
At that, Arissa guffawed. Benjamin frowned, likewise intrigued about the meaning of IMS. After laughing for a while,
Arissa explained in a low voice, “It’s something like PMS. When someone has IMS, he has mood swings.”
The corners of Benjamin’s mouth twitched, and he pinched the woman’s ear. “Ouch!”
Pain shot through Arissa, upon which she jerked her head to the side and shot daggers at the man, smacking his
hand away.

“What did you just say about me?”
Benjamin’s gaze was sharp and radiated a strong sense of warning. Arissa blinked, guilt flooding her. I spoke so
softly earlier, yet he heard me?
She flashed him a sheepish smile. “Nothing!”

Subsequently, she surreptitiously sneaked a look at the man’s expression. Seeing that he wasn’t mad, she breathed
a sigh of relief.
Benjamin snorted and shot her a glare. Looking away, Arissa asked the children, “What would you all like to eat for
dinner, Sweethearts?”
All six children fixated their eyes on her. “Are you cooking, Mommy?”
“Nope. But if you all would like to eat my cooking, I don’t mind making a few dishes!”
Who knows, dinner might be ready by the time we arrive home. After all, Edwin has gone back to prepare dinner.
“Mommy, you’re deliberately saying that, right? By the time we arrive home, dinner will be ready!” Zachary
giggled.
Exposed by her son, Arissa was embarrassed for a moment. Benjamin stared at the back of her head fixedly. “I’d
like to eat steak!”
Arissa’s lips twitched. I wasn’t asking him! Upon receiving no response from her, Benjamin murmured in a deep
voice, “Well?”
Sensing great pressure washing over her, Arissa turned and glanced at him. “In that case, ask Edwin to grill it!”
“You know how to grill a steak, no? I’d like to eat your cooking!”
Benjamin gazed at her deeply. Arissa’s heart skipped a beat before it pounded wildly.
Goodness! I really can’t stand him looking at me in such a manner. It makes me waver and relent!
“Fine!”
The corners of Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper’s mouths twitched. Couldn’t she have declined?
Conversely, Gavin and Jesse were over the moon that they would get to eat the steaks she grilled.
Tim was also very much looking forward to it.
Meanwhile, Benjamin’s thin lips curled up slightly.
Just when they arrived at the Graham residence, a phone call from Ethen came in.
Arissa hastily answered the call.
“Have you found it, Mr. Frank?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other end of the phone, Ethen paused for a second before answering in a hushed voice, “Yes, but there are
only a few pieces of blank paper in the document you submitted, Ms. York.”
Arissa was entirely stunned.
“Blank paper?”
“Yes. The label indicates that it’s from your office, so that should be it.”
At Ethen’s words, Arissa’s lips twitched.
Don’t tell me I didn’t print them out? But I did press the button.
Benjamin carried the children out of the car.
Standing beside the car, he bent over and looked at her. “Are you not coming out?”
Arissa cast a glance at him, mortified to the core. Ethen then uttered a call-closing statement before ending the
call.
“Perhaps I forgot to print the document out, Mr. Graham. I’ll print it out for you in a while!”
She voluntarily admitted to her mistake.
Benjamin harrumphed softly.
Arissa took a peek at him. Puzzlement swamped her when she saw that he wasn’t surprised in the least.
“Did you already see my document?”
“Nope!” Benjamin glanced at her.
A while later, he added, “I only saw the folder.”
Words eluded Arissa.
