You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1195

Arissa chuckled. She did not expect her innocent question would lead to getting more money. Am I getting wealthier?

“Do the children know about this?” she asked hopefully as she looked at Benjamin.

Looking at her glittering eyes, his brows twitched. He said flatly, “Gavin knows.”

Oh, I guess I can't have it as my secret stash anymore.

“Are you hoping that the money could be your secret stash?” Benjamin asked her teasingly as though he could read her mind.

Arissa sheepishly grinned. “It's too bad our son already knows about it.”

“You can bribe him. He might help you keep it a secret,” Benjamin suggested.

Gavin listened to his mother. He would do exactly what was told as long as it came from her.

Arissa chuckled. “Let's talk about this another time. I've never seen your vault before!”

Benjamin smiled and said gently, “If you want to see it, you'd better cooperate in your treatment. I'll take you there once you're fully recovered.”

“Where is it?” She was curious.

“It's at the Graham residence!” Benjamin stroked her nose dotingly. Right then, Darius and Mary

arrived.

Both of them had agreed to visit Arissa together during lunchtime to eat with her.

After asking about Arissa's checkups, they asked Benjamin to feed her. He then sat beside her and ate together.

Arissa was very touched to have a meal with Benjamin by her hospital bed. “Let's eat together. You still have to go back to the office in the afternoon. You don't have to feed me. I can do it myself!”

Benjamin raised his gaze and stared at her. “I haven't decided whether to go to the office in the afternoon. Have you made the decision for me?”

Arissa smiled. “You said so in the morning. I believe what you first said was true.”

“Then didn't you hear about my conditions?” Benjamin looked straight at her.

Arissa's big round eyes turned away before looking back at Benjamin, puzzled. “Is there any?”

Benjamin was amused. This woman really knows how to play dumb, right in my face at that.

“Don't worry. I'm fine!” Arissa felt she was getting better. As long as she stayed in bed, nothing wrong will happen.

“Dad and Grandaunt will be accompanying me. Don't worry, so please head back to the office. It's tough that you need to juggle between taking care of me and work. My heart aches when I see you working so hard!”

Arissa whispered the last sentence softly to Benjamin so that the two elders would not overhear.

Benjamin's heart fluttered and had a tingling feeling. He requested, “Say that again!”

“Say what?” Arissa looked at him with a smile. She served him some more food and said, “Eat more!”

Benjamin's lips curled up. He was in a good mood. “All right!”

After lunch, Benjamin's brows knitted together. Shaun is taking way too long, isn't he? He hasn't given me the report yet.

Upon thinking that, he went straight to Shaun and caught him digging into his food in the office. “Is my wife's report out yet?”

Shaun almost choked. He patted his chest and drank a few sips of water before swallowing his food.

He's been pressing me countless times for her report!

“Benjamin, I had a busy morning. Please let me have a few bites!” Shaun did not know how to react. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Benjamin shot him a glare. The former was determined to know the result.

“There's no problem with her urinalysis. We're halfway through her blood test, and there hasn't been any issue so far!” Shaun quickly reported the status as he felt Benjamin's murderous aura.

“Quack doctor!” Benjamin blurted and left.

Shaun was dumbfounded.

Hmph! Why are you still ordering me around if you think I'm useless?

However, no matter how much Shaun cursed inwardly about Benjamin, Shaun never dared to confront the latter.

After that, Benjamin returned to the ward. Arissa glanced at him and could feel him fuming with rage. “What's wrong? Is something wrong with Jesse?”

“No. It's just that Shaun hasn't finished the examination!” Benjamin quickly explained himself before she started worrying.
