Chapter 460
Tim looked at him and stopped him. “You shouldn't spend so much money on us, Mr. Frank!”
“It's all right. As long as you guys are happy!” Ethen had to convince Tim so that he would continue eating.
Although the dishes were all common and simple dishes, they were all delicacies in the eyes of a kid from a poor
family.
When Ethen saw the shrimps, he asked, “Have you eaten shrimps before?”
Tim's eyes lit up, and he nodded. “I have. However, the ones I've eaten before were way smaller than these! I
usually catch them in the streams!”
“From the streams?” Ethen smiled.
Tim nodded in response.
“These are from the ocean!” Ethen peeled one and gave it to Tim. “You aren't allergic to shrimps, are you?”
Tim looked at him and shook his head. “No!”
Ethen heaved a breath of relief and continued peeling shrimps for Tim.

they couldn't let the food go to waste.
Hence, Tim was filled to the brim.
Seeing that Mary hadn't woken up yet, Tim frowned anxiously. “Mr. Frank, why is my grandma still not awake yet?”
“It's still too soon! Do you see the IV drip there? Once the drip has finished, she'll still need a few hours before she
could regain consciousness!” Ethen said it in an explanatory tone so that Tim couldn't get sad or worried.
“Oh, I see!” Tim sat by the side of the bed and massaged Mary on the back of her hand so that she'd feel less pain
from the drip.
“Tim, would you like to take a breather?” Ethen was getting worried when he saw how frail and little Tim was.
“No. You can rest if you're tired, Mr. Frank. I'm not tired at all!” Tim answered and continued staying by Mary's side.
Ethen let out a sigh and cleaned up the ward before heading outside to inform Benjamin that Tim had eaten.
Upon receiving Ethen's report, Benjamin felt relieved. At least he's eating now.
He then glanced at the woman in bed and went out to make a phone call. He rang Edwin and told him to make
some oatmeal porridge before going back into the ward.
Arissa woke up with a headache at around two in the afternoon.
“Are you awake?” Benjamin asked.
Arissa was stunned when she saw Benjamin there. “Why aren't you on your business trip?”
“I've returned!” Benjamin sized her up and noticed that she was still in a daze. He frowned and asked, “Do you want
to continue sleeping?”
Arissa stared at Benjamin and shook her head. She then took a glance at her surroundings and asked, “Is this the
hospital?”
“Yes. You've fainted!” Benjamin leaned forward to straighten her bed with the bed control.
Arissa finally remembered what happened before she was sent to the hospital. I was coming out of the lawyer's
office, and everything went blank after that.
She was already not in a mood when she just woke up, but it had worsened when she thought about her kids.
Benjamin glanced at her before going to the restroom. He brought a wet towel out to help her wipe her face.
Right then, Arissa perked up and said, “I'll do it myself!”
“Don't move!” Benjamin ordered domineeringly before wiping her face gently.

protecting Danna still bothered her.
Benjamin furrowed his brows when he noticed her change of mood. “Arissa!”
Arissa raised her gaze toward him before looking away and coughed.
Benjamin then sighed and poured her a glass of water. “Drink some water!”
Arissa felt a lot better after drinking the water. She got up and wanted to go to the restroom, but Benjamin stopped
her. “Where are you going? Lie down!”
“I want to go to the restroom!” Arissa answered weakly.
Seeing how frail she was, Benjamin bent down and carried her in his arms before making his way to the restroom.
Arissa was stunned by his action, but she didn't protest because she was still feeling a little dizzy.
“Don't worry. The kid is fine!” Benjamin threw her a glance. I'm not used to seeing her so sick.
Arissa wasn't listening to him, and she seemed to be pondering something.
Seeing how irresponsive she was, Benjamin sounded more aggressive when he said, “Arissa!”
Arissa returned to her senses and stared blankly at him.
Benjamin then put her down and pinned her against the wall before forcing a kiss on her.
