You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Chapter 1008

Noticing the change in his expression, Arissa asked softly, “Did something happen?”

“Enjoy the upcoming show!”

When Benjamin gave her a look without explaining, Arissa was bemused.

What is he talking about?

The indiscernible look on his face simply caused her to purse her lips.

In the meantime, Benjamin broke into an icy smile when his gaze suddenly met Nick's.

When Nick saw the knowing look on Benjamin's face, his expression froze while his hair inexplicably stood on end.

“Benjamin, I heard that you have gotten in the way of Bryan's business?”

Nick walked over, wearing a cunning smile on his face.

Arissa's brows furrowed slightly. Is this what Benjamin was talking about?

Benjamin replied with an icy gaze, “It only shows how incompetent he is from a business perspective.”

Those around who heard his words were utterly flabbergasted. Only Benjamin was brazen enough to not show Bryan any respect at all.

It went without saying that Bryan heard what was said, causing a gloomy expression to descend upon his face.

Initially, he had no intention of coming but only did so out of his obligation as the eldest son of the Graham family. Otherwise, he would end up as a subject of ridicule.

Since everyone in attendance was a relative, his absence would only further elevate Benjamin's prestige.

“Benjamin, how can you speak so disrespectfully? Don't forget that I'm your elder brother still!”

Despite his fearsome outburst and the fact that he was old enough to be Benjamin's father, the gravitas Bryan exuded was inferior to that of his brother.

Humiliation filled Bryan after Benjamin publicly disparaged him.

Nevertheless, Benjamin refused to dial his mockery down. “I'm just stating the facts.”

Pfft!

Kingsley and the others could barely contain their laughter.

With a drastic change in expression, Bryan would have lunged at Benjamin if Nick hadn't held him back. Even if the latter didn't, Bryan was still no match for Benjamin in a fight.

“Why are you arguing out of the blue again?”

The stern-looking Darius came over and glared at the brothers.

Are they trying to give me a heart attack?

Amidst the soft muttering of friends and family, Darius swept a piercing gaze across their faces as he thundered, “I'll kick whoever causes trouble out of here!”

Bryan was filled with indignance when his eyes met Darius' accusatory gaze.

“Dad, he scolded me first. How can I not fight back? Even if you're biased, this is just taking it too far!”

“You b*stard, how dare you have the cheek to be angry? If you hadn't gotten on Benjamin's nerves, why would he attack you? Do you think you're right to cause so much conflict within the family?”

Darius was outraged to see the family discord laid out in the open.

Doesn't he know what day it is today? He must be making my life difficult on purpose.

Having blown his lid, Bryan was about to confront Darius when Nick hurriedly held him back and attempted to defuse the situation.



“Bryan, calm down. There's no point in losing your temper with Dad. Don't disgrace yourself in public.”

“Didn't you see how biased Dad was toward Benjamin? What am I supposed to do? Am I to just sit idly by as Benjamin ridicules me?”

Bryan was speaking in a voice loud enough for many others to hear it.

“B*stard!”
