The More the Merrier novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 The Ostracized Boss

After Ethen left, Kingsley approached Benjamin. “Let’s go and get our free meal too!”

Benjamin swept a glance at him.

“Arissa’s treating her department to a meal. She’s even called Ethen along. Aren’t you going?”

Kingsley knocked on the office desk.

Benjamin’s brows furrowed. She’s treating them to a meal? She called Ethen along and left me, the company owner, out of it?

Benjamin felt a hint of displeasure so ephemeral that he did not even notice it.

“Aren’t you going?”

Kingsley looked at Benjamin and smiled. “If you’re embarrassed to be a freeloader, why not be the one to give the treat? You’re the boss. Surely you can give your staff and subordinates a treat?”

Benjamin stood up and walked out of his office. “As a boss, I should treat my staff nicely.”

Kingsley grinned and looked at Benjamin with his eyes full of mirth.

“Boss, you seem to have changed!”

Benjamin cast a stern glance at Kingsley, who quickly wised up.

When the two of them reached the first floor, Zayden caught sight of Benjamin and rushed forward.

“Benjamin!”

Even as an elder who was nearly twice Benjamin’s age, Zayden was subdued by the former’s aura. Despite feeling a little uncomfortable, he still called out to Benjamin amiably.

“I have a matter to discuss with you.”

Benjamin looked at Zayden coldly. “If this is about Danna’s treatment toward Gavin, we have nothing to talk about!”

Zayden froze momentarily.

Without sparing him a second glance, Benjamin strode out of the building with Zayden hot on his heels.

“Benjamin, I’ve given Danna a good scolding after I found out about it. She knows she is at fault for this matter. However, there is no mother who does not dote on her own child. She just did it in a fit of anger. Now, she is filled with remorse…”

Benjamin’s face darkened.

Kingsley cast a glance at Zayden and said sarcastically, “Your family comes up tops when it comes to being shameless. After mistreating your own children, you still have the cheek to say you did it out of love. Why don’t I give you a thrashing to express my love for you?”
