Chapter 767 He Went On A Business Trip When Arissa awoke the following morning and went to wash up, she subconsciously walked to the master bedroom. Just as she was about to open the door, someone opened it from the inside.
She was stunned to find herself face-to-face with the man she had not seen for almost two days. âGood morning,â she greeted politely. Benjamin stared at her intently and asked in a deep voice, âWhy did you move your things out?â
Her heart lurched. I went to the wrong room! I already moved my things to the guest room last night. âItâs more convenient that way!â
She glanced at the weary-looking man before her. He looked as though he had just returned, and his eyes were bloodshot.
He glared at her in response.
However, she merely nodded, then turned to return to the guest room and wash up.
Benjamin pursed his lips. Then, he also turned and went to shower in the master bedroom.
Knowing that Benjamin had returned, Edwin prepared more food for breakfast.
He asked Ethen, âWhere has Mr. Graham been these past two days?â
âHe was on a business trip. Didnât you know?â Ethen replied as he moved closer and stole a bite of the food.
âA business trip?â
Edwin was surprised.
Ethen nodded. âThatâs right. We were on a business trip. After yesterdayâs ribbon-cutting ceremony, we rushed to Xenhall. We were very busy, and thatâs why weâve only just returned.â
Something flickered in Edwinâs eyes. He had seen the news about the previous dayâs ribbon-cutting ceremony, so he enquired softly, âWasnât Mr.
Graham with Ms. Adams?â
Ethen glanced at him. âNo, he wasnât.â
Then he scanned the surroundings to make sure Benjamin was nowhere in sight before continuing to gossip with Edwin.
âShe did show up at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, but Mr. Graham ignored her. After that, he took me on that business trip.â
Edwin breathed a sigh of relief. âSo thatâs what happened.â
He also cast a quick glance around them before saying to Ethen quietly, âMrs. Graham didnât look too happy yesterday.â
Astonished, Ethen asked, âShe saw the news too? She doesnât know Rosetta, does she?â
âIâm not too sure about that. However, women tend to be more sensitive about such things. I already felt something was off when Mr. Graham left yesterday morning, and they didnât sleep in the same room the night before.â
Realization suddenly dawned on Ethen. No wonder Mr. Graham has been giving off such a terrifying and unapproachable aura since yesterday morning. It turns out that itâs because of Mrs. Graham and not Rosetta.
âDid they quarrel?â Ethen asked.
Edwin furrowed his brows. âThe children asked Mrs. Graham that yesterday, but she denied it. It doesnât look like they did to me. They were fine before I went to bed the night before, but things had changed by the time I got up the following morning. Iâve no idea what happened since I wasnât there.â
âThat must mean something unpleasant happened between them since Mr. Graham wasnât in a good mood either,â Ethen guessed. Mr. Graham was on his phone a lot during the business trip. I asked him something while he was waiting for a call, but he cut me off with a glare.
As the two gossiped in the kitchen, they did not notice Arissa coming downstairs.
âCould it be because of that woman?â
Edwin looked at Ethen. That woman has already left the country, so why would she return?
âI didnât dare to ask,â Ethen replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
âGood morning, Edwin. Good morning, Mr. Frank!â
The two men nearly jumped out of their skins when they heard Arissaâs voice.
Fixing their gazes on her, they answered in unison, âGood morning, Mrs. Graham.â
She went to pour a glass of water, then busied herself with getting the childrenâs breakfast.

Arissa nodded.
âMr. Graham and I left for a business trip yesterday morning,â Ethen also chimed in to offer her an explanation.
However, she merely turned toward him and nodded with a smile before continuing with what she was doing.
So, he went on a business trip. But whether or not he did has nothing to do with me, nor is it something I should ask about.
The two men gazed at her. Seeing that she had no wish to continue the topic, they fell silent and helped to prepare breakfast.
