Chapter 278 Benjamin Backs Her Up Meanwhile, Hectorâs face fell instantaneously upon Arissaâs words. The young heir of a wealthy family? Is she talking about me?
The grimness on his face became more intense when he heard that Regina even had scandals with married men.
Sensing that Hector seemed to be swayed by Arissaâs words, Regina snarled, âStop lying! If not, Iâll rip you apart!â
Squeezing out an insincere smile, Arissa mocked, âIâm just telling the truth. Why are you flipping out all of a sudden? No doubt, itâs easy as pie for you to rip me apart. After all, both the young heir and your beloved sugar daddies are backing you up. As for me, Iâm just an ordinary woman without any support. Ms. Lawson, please spare me. Donât be infuriated by my words.â
Then, she turned to look at Hector deliberately. âMr. Robinson, am I right?â
Wearing a look of utter grimness, Hector snapped at her, âIf you did not reject me at that time, you would have been able to lead a better life now!â
Deep down, Hector fumed. How dare she try to imply that Iâm bad at choosing women! I confessed my feeling toward her at that time, didnât I? But she rejected me in front of everyone!
Boiling with rage, Reginaâs entire body trembled uncontrollably. Prevailed by jealousy, she glared at Arissa with flaring eyes. How could Hector still think of her now!
In the meantime, a hint of displeasure flashed across Benjaminâs eyes. He stepped forward and wrapped his arm around Arissaâs waist, obviously possessive of her.
Exuding an imposing aura, he snickered. âWhat makes you think that sheâs not living a good life like you? Donât jump to a hasty conclusion just because sheâs carrying all these in her arms. Let me tell you, this is simply how we tease each other.â
Tightening his arms around Arissa, he lowered his eyes and gazed at her lovingly as he murmured, âAm I right, Rissa?â
Arissa could not resist but gulp as goosebumps prickled her skin at his exaggerative words.
Even so, the domineering man shot her a warning look, hinting her not to go against his will.
Thus, she had no choice but to put on her brightest smile and nod shyly. âYeah!â
Hector was overcome by another wave of fury when he saw how Arissa blushed as she snuggled into Benjaminâs arms. He gritted his teeth as if she had betrayed him.
Right at that instant, Benjamin shot him a sharp look.
The manâs intimidating gaze caused him to chicken out and shift his gaze away sheepishly. Moments later, he came to himself and glared at the man again.
Turning a blind eye to the unreasonable couple, Benjamin headed toward his car with his arm wrapped around Arissa.
Regina freaked out when Arissa and Benjamin gave no hoots to her. She caught up to them and yelled out, âJust a minute! Sir, I donât think you know how Arissa used to be, do you? She used to lead a promiscuous life and have countless bedmates. Do you know that she even had an abortion...â
However, her voice trailed off when Benjamin stopped in his tracks and turned to glance obliquely at her. The ferocity in his eyes almost scared the living daylights out of her.
After a while, she continued to babble, âYou can run a background check on her if you donât believe me. Itâs no secret to everyone!â
Regina felt a rush of schadenfreude in an instant. She could barely wait for the man to flip out and cut ties with Arissa.
Arissa gritted her teeth in utter resentment. This b*tch! She must be the one spreading rumors at the campus!
At the peak of fury, she was about to settle the score with the despicable woman when the man alongside her uttered grimly, âDo you know what will happen to you if you try to frame my woman?â
Sebastianâs tone was as cold as the abyss, making the temperature around them drop drastically.
Arissaâs heart skipped a beat at once. She knew all too well that Benjaminâs temper was flaring.
Staring at the manâs face that was darkening gradually, she was momentarily dazed. My goodness! He looks so captivating when heâs angry!
Intimidated by Benjaminâs dangerous aura, Regina took one step backward instinctively. Putting on a brave front, she retorted, âEveryone knows about that. How can you say that Iâm framing her?â
âFine!â Benjamin hissed in an icy-cold tone and turned to instruct the bodyguard solemnly, âCall my lawyer!â
âUnderstood, Mr. Graham!â The bodyguard nodded respectfully.
While making the call, he asked, âMs. York, whatâs this womanâs name?â
Arissa was stunned. She had thought that Benjamin was simply putting on a show to threaten Regina. Without any hesitation, she gladly replied, âRegina Lawson!â
