We're sure he's uttered some words since Nannygate, just not to us!

Ben Affleck headed to an early morning business meeting in L.A. today, and the actor was in such a good mood that he was actually excited to see us, and engaged in a bit of a chat before hopping in the elevator!

"Surprise!" he jokes when he sees our famous videographer, who tells him he's looking good. "Thanks, you too," he quips before adding, "It's always nice to see you in the parking garages around Los Angeles."

While most people assume the rumors the Batman star bedded the family nanny Christine Ouzounian are true, we're not so sure anymore! It seems like the pretty brunette is doing everything she can to keep that story going and capitalize on her newfound fame, and part of us wonders if she made the whole thing up to pocket some easy cash! In fact, the newest development is that she plans to write a tell-all about their steamy affair!

"It’s exactly what Ben and Jen have been fearing. She’s going to air all their dirty laundry!” a source dished to OK! magazine."They want Christine to go away for good. With everything she could say about them, she’s like a ticking time bomb," the source added.

Maybe we're naive, but we think the Boston hunk knows better than to slum it with the help!
