Chapter 682 I Did Not Do Anything
“Well, according to the results of the examination, it’s the same as before and hasn’t worsened.” Arissa broke into a
smile. She was relieved by the news.
“Why didn’t you wake me up in the morning? I overslept because of you!” Benjamin snorted. “How is it my fault? I
didn’t do anything!”
Arissa’s ears burned. She quickly snuck a glance in Edwin’s direction and saw that the latter was tidying up the
kitchen. Gosh, his words are so suggestive.
“All right. I want to continue with my breakfast.”
“Okay,” Benjamin grunted but didn’t end the call.
Arissa cocked a brow. “Have you and the children had your breakfast?”
“They’re having it with Grandaunt right now,” Benjamin answered casually.
“Aren’t you having anything?” Arissa sensed that something was amiss.
“Yeah,” Benjamin said. “I’m on my way to work.”
Arissa knitted her brows. “Work is important, but your health is even more so. You’d better get something to eat
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbefore starting work, or you may end up having gastric.”
Benjamin was delighted by the concern she showed him.
“Okay!”
Cognizant of Benjamin’s good mood, Ethen looked in the rearview mirror.
“I’ll have breakfast if you bring it over,” Benjamin requested in a gentle tone, causing Arissa’s cheeks to burn.
Oh my!
“I still need to go to the hospital.”
“You can go there after bringing me breakfast,” Benjamin asserted in a deep and domineering voice.
Just as Arissa was pondering upon the route to take between the hospital and Benjamin’s office, he ended the call
before she could reply.
“Edwin, you can have your phone back.”
Edwin came over and took back his phone.
“Mrs. Graham, what did Mr. Graham tell you?”
Faced with Edwin’s gleaming eyes, Arissa frowned. “He told me to send him breakfast.”
Edwin chuckled under his breath and said gleefully, “Mr. Graham must be missing you already. In that case, you
should bring him breakfast to cheer him up.”
Arissa blushed.
“Edwin, why don’t you send it to him?”
Edwin declined, “I can’t. If I do so, Mr. Graham will definitely dock my pay. Since he has specifically requested you to
do it, you should just go since it’s not going to take much time. You can head to the hospital to visit Mdm. Mary once
you’re done.”
Arissa felt embarrassed if her colleagues were to see her.
After all, she had already missed work for a few days.
How am I going to explain myself if I suddenly turn up with breakfast for Benjamin? No one knows about our
relationship.
Arissa was frustrated with the issue.
Edwin, however, ignored her concerns, as he was confident about her.
He went off to prepare and pack Benjamin’s breakfast, which consisted of a bunch of pastries that were good for
the stomach.
After finishing her food, Arissa drank the medicinal soup under Edwin’s watchful eye.
Even though it wasn’t as bitter as before, it was impossible for something that was boiled from a combination of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtens of herbs to taste nice. Just the smell alone was enough to make her feel nauseous.
“Mrs. Graham, slow down.” Edwin furrowed his brows, worried that she would puke.
With a bitter expression on her face, Arissa pinched her nose and downed it in one gulp.
Edwin handed her a cup of water and a sweet to cleanse her palate.
“Mrs. Graham, here’s a sweet.”
Arissa threw it into her mouth without any hesitation.
The next moment, a sweet sensation burst into her mouth and washed away the bitter aftertaste.
“Edwin, the medicine tastes horrible! It was no longer bitter, but it ended up tasting worse.”
“Is it still bitter?” Edwin glanced at her.
Arissa shook her head. “No, it’s not, but it’s more horrible than before.”
“Huh?” Edwin was shocked.
Heaving a sigh, Arissa turned around and left the dining room.
“Edwin, we’ll leave once I get myself changed.” She then ran upstairs.
Edwin stretched his head to take a look. Is she making an excuse to throw up the medicine?
Feeling concerned, Edwin went after her.
Nevertheless, he stopped outside the bedroom door and listened for any movements.
