Chapter 846


    “Get back to work!”


    m! Arissa shut the door forcefully. She was too embarrassed and avoided eye contact with the


    bodyguard. With her head hung low, she scurried into the lobby of the hospital.


    Benjamin watched as she fled the scene. A low chuckle rumbled in his throat.


    ncing at the bodyguard waiting beside the car, he ordered, “Let''s go!”


    The bodyguard got into the driver''s seat and drove Benjamin to thepany.


    Arissa ran all the way back to the ward, and her racing heart finally calmed down.


    “Mrs. Graham, why are you blushing? Did you do something bad?” Kingsley stuck his head out and


    shot her an inquisitive look as his eyes crinkled up.


    Arissa gave a start.


    “Why are you still here?”


    Both Kingsley and Shaun, who was walking over to them, burst outughing.


    “Arissa wants to know why you''re still here,” Shaun teased him.


    He then entered the ward to do his rounds.


    “I was in his office earlier. Has Benjamin left?” Kingsley nced around.


    “Yep. He went to work,” Arissa told him after she regained herposure.


    Kingsley observed her carefully and noticed that her lips were a little swollen. He shot her a knowing


    look. “Did you send him off?”


    “Yes.” Feeling embarrassed, Arissa hurried into the ward to see Shaun examining Mary.


    Kingsley grinned end entered the werd efter her. However, he excused himself not long efter.


    “Arisse, Mdm. Mery is doing well. Don''t worry. You should get some sleep. I need to heed beck to my


    office now,” Sheun told Arisse.


    “Oh, thenk you!” Arisse nodded.

    “Yeah.” Arissa''s lips curled. “You woke me up!”

    “It''s Kingsley. He wants me to treat them all to dinner,” Benjamin exined.


    “Oh, all right then,” Arissa agreed readily. “Can we bring the kids, too?”

    “Nothing!”

    “Mr. Graham, everyone is here. We can start the meeting now!” Ethen reported.


    Benjamin inclined his head and got up to join the rest.


    Arissa had just ced her phone aside when Gavin''s call arrived.


    She rose to her feet and answered the call at the balcony.


    “Mommy!”


    “Hey, Sweetheart. What''s wrong? Do you miss me?” Arissa asked gently.


    Gavin''s shy giggle sounded over the line.


    Jesse and Jasper inched closer to him and called out, “Mommy!”


    “Mommy, Tim misses you, too!” Oliver chimed in.


    Arissa beamed. “I miss you all, too. Tim, do you miss your great-grandaunt?”


    After the surgery ended, Mary woke up and took a few bites of food before falling asleep. Thus, she


    forgot to inform the kids.


    Arissa said in an apologetic tone, “Sweetheart, I forgot to tell Great-grandaunt to give you a call. I''m


    sorry!”


    “It''s fine!” Tim chirped. He didn''t me her.


    Arissa nced at her watch. Are they all up?


    “Did you wake up from your afternoon nap?”


    “Yes!” five kids chorused except for Zachary.


    “Sweethearts, where is Zachary?”


    What is he doing?
