Chapter 68 Reprimanded On First Day Of Work Arissa rose to her feet and greeted everyone with a smile.
âHi, everyone, Iâm Arissa from the IT department. Itâs my first day at work today. Pleasure meeting you guys!â
âFrom the IT department?â
âWhat a waste for such a beautiful woman to work in the IT department!â
âIâll give you better treatment if you join my department! How about it? Itâs an easy job in my department. We are only busy at the end of every month to get payment received on time. Other than that period, we are pretty relaxed.â
Arissa was amused looking at the enthusiasm displayed by her new colleagues.
She politely rejected the offer. âI donât know anything other than IT-related matters.â
âThatâs not an issue! Iâll teach you!â
âHey! How can you shamelessly poach her in broad daylight?â
Everyone was teasing each other and getting to know their new colleague before Benjaminâs arrival.
Meanwhile, Ethen followed closely behind Benjamin as they strode toward the meeting room while reporting to the latter his agenda.
As they neared the meeting room, Benjamin frowned upon hearing the unusual merriness coming from inside.
Stepping in, he glanced across the room and saw everyone surrounding Arissa. A flash of coldness flickered in his eyes instantly.
âAhem!â
Having worked for Benjamin for many years, Ethen could sense something was amiss with his boss and quickly signaled the rest.
Everyone took their seats accordingly as soon as they realized Benjaminâs arrival.
âIt seems like Ms. York is quite popular here!â
Arissa was left standing by herself and meeting Benjaminâs gaze as everyone took their seats.
She was stunned at the manâs sarcastic remark.
Nevertheless, she replied with a smile, âIâm flattered, Mr. Graham.â
Giving him a hard stare, she did not budge an inch.
Benjamin looked intently at her for a brief moment before averting his gaze and taking his seat.
Seeing that, Arissa heaved a sigh of relief.
âTake a seat, Arissa!â
Her colleague sitting next to her signaled her to take a seat softly.
Arissa responded with a polite smile and sat down.
Benjamin shot a glare at her colleague. Noticing the manâs gaze, no one dared to speak a word.
âReport to me your progression of work now,â Benjamin ordered grimly.
With that, Ethen gestured to start with the finance department.
Despite the satisfactory progress of the finance department, Benjamin did not let the manager pass easily.
âIâll get someone to replace you if you canât get the bad debts settled soon!â
Arissa glanced at the man at the head of the table.
He was a stern man who exuded a natural domineering aura like a leaderâs.
One could easily be intimidated by him when he wasnât smiling.
At that moment, the entire meeting room went silent as everyone became stiffened, noticing that their boss didnât seem to be in a good mood that day.
Sure enough, all the department managers had gotten reprimanded.
Watching the miserable looks on the faces of the meeting attendees, Ethen secretly sneaked a peek at the grim-faced man.
Is Mr. Graham angry because of Ms. York or Ms. Adams?
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 67 When it came to Arissaâs turn to speak, Ethen gestured that she remain seated after rising to her feet.
âIâve just taken over the IT department today and am still in the process of figuring everything out. Therefore, Iâm unsure of the current progress.
Apologies, Mr. Graham. Please give me another day.â
With his gaze lowered, Benjamin seemed to be in deep thoughts. No one could tell if he was listening or not.
Without an order from him, nobody dared to speak further.
Arissa felt unnerved seeing no response from Benjamin, too.
âMr. Graham!â Ethen reminded Benjamin politely.
Hearing that, Benjamin looked up and swept a glance at Arissa.
The neckline of her dress was slightly low, revealing a morsel of her cleavage. She still looked inexplicably sexy.
Benjaminâs face darkened upon noticing that.
âReport to me before the lunch break today!â
Arissa was rendered speechless.
Everyone widened their eyes in shock, too. It was clear that Benjamin was challenging Arissa.
How could Mr. Graham give only half a day to Arissa when she just joined the company today?
It wasnât a small company, after all. No one could finish reading all the reports in half a day.
Even Ethen felt Benjamin was being too harsh and wanted to plead on behalf of Arissa. âMr. Graham...â
Nonetheless, he gulped and swallowed the words as soon as he met Benjaminâs cold gaze.
âWhy? You canât do it?â Benjamin provoked while fixing his gaze on Arissa.
