Benjamin tapped on his thigh and lowered his gaze, making Arissa even more nervous as she watched
me. “Why would your brother have my number?” Arissa’s heart skipped a beat. She did not know how
to elaborate the lie, and even if she were to tell him the truth now, there would be no guarantee he
would believe her. Furthermore, Benjamin seemed to suspect that she did it. “Perhaps it was a
coincidence?”
Benjamin scoffed. Arissa was at a loss for words. “It really isn’t me who sent that, but I’ll apologize to
you since I’m responsible for his misdemeanor. I sincerely apologize for all of the inconvenience we’ve
caused you.” Arissa was Zachary’s mother, and hence, she was obliged to apologize on his behalf.
“How about I give him a call to ask? I’ll lecture him about this when I get home. I’m terribly sorry for the
inconvenience.” How brave of him to send a text to Benjamin.
I was wondering why he would think of calling me here, and this is why! “There’s no need.” Benjamin
no longer wanted to know, and the call would not change a thing. If she did it, she would have it all
planned out. The call will be just for show. Arissa watched his expression of distrust and was
speechless. She no longer wished to explain herself. She, too, would not believe what she had said if
the roles were reversed. “Mr. Graham, if you called me here today because of this, you can go ahead
and reject me. However, I hope that you could give me a chance.
I believe that you won’t be disappointed with my capabilities should you hire me!” I should at least fight
for it since I’m already here. Benjamin watched as Arissa pitched herself, and the corners of his mouth
curved into a smirk. She’s finally revealing her intentions? “So confident?” Arissa listened to his
arrogant tone and suppressed her dissatisfaction. “I have the right to be confident. Mr. Graham, what
do you say? Let’s be direct and not waste each other’s time.” Benjamin’s eyes darkened. No one had
ever spoken to him that way, and she was the first.
“Ethen!” he shouted. A short while later, Ethen ran into the room. He looked at them in curiosity. “Mr.
Graham, you called?” “Bring the computer over here and test her. If she passes, hire her. If not, show
her the door!” Benjamin ultimately decided to give her a shot since she had gone through a lot of
trouble for the opportunity. Arissa was surprised as she assumed the man would not even consider
giving her a chance. He agreed?
Ethen smiled and quickly grabbed the computer. “Ms. York, this way, please!” Arissa walked over and
sat in front of the office desk. She opened the portal and started maneuvering. She designed two
programs to attack one another. Ethen was impressed when he saw that. “Ms. York, how did you think
about coming up with this?” Arissa was fully absorbed in her task, going against her own system.
Benjamin’s eyes flashed when he saw Ethen’s amazement and approached them. He scanned through
it, and his eyes immediately lit up. I have to admit it.
This woman does have the skills. As Benjamin continued staring at Arissa, he fell deep into
thought. Could she be the one who hacked my computer last night? His handsome face darkened at
the thought. Ethen was enjoying himself and did not notice Benjamin’s expression. He excitedly said to
him, “Mr. Graham, don’t you agree that Ms. York’s skills are extraordinary!?”
Jackpot. With her, the company’s Engineering Department will definitely level up and become
indestructible. Benjamin glared daggers at his assistant, and his face darkened further when he saw
that Ethen’s face was full of admiration. He was oddly unhappy.
Arissa’s fingers flew across the keyboard. She managed to beat the complicated system not long after.
Turning to look at Benjamin, she asked quietly, “Mr. Graham, what do you think?” The man said nothing
in response and merely stared at her intently.
