Chapter 1291 Arissa Is Just Asleep


    Benjamin stared at Shaun sharply, expressing his doubt. “Is she fine?”


    Shaun nodded confidently, saying, “Arissa''s fine. She''s just asleep.”


    Arissa is sleeping as she''s tired. Why is he so anxious?


    Kingsley and Ethen let out a sigh of relief, gazing at Benjamin with a smile. Obviously, thetter was


    too anxious to keep a clear mind.


    Benjamin nced at them, and they quickly stopped smiling.


    “It''sforting to know that Mrs. Graham is well. Undergoing a checkup is a wise decision, alleviating


    our concerns.” Ethen broke the ensuing silence.


    Kingsley also hastened to add, “Indeed, indeed. The most crucial thing is Arissa''s well-being. We shall


    take our leave now, so as not to interrupt your rest!”


    Kingsley tugged at Ethen''s clothes, leading the way out of the ward, afraid that Benjamin might stop


    him and give him a lesson.


    “Don''t worry. Arissa is fine. It''s normal for pregnant women to feel sleepy!” Shaunforted Benjamin


    with a few words, then promptly followed Kingsley and Ethen out.


    Benjamin nced at them. He didn''t have the time to settle scores with them right now and


    commanded in a deep voice, “Close the door!”


    Shaun quickly agreed, casually closing the door behind him. Their gazes met briefly before he hurriedly


    looked away.


    Kingsley patted his chest, feeling somewhat relieved. “Benjamin didn''t find fault with me. That''s great!”


    The corner of Shaun''s mouth twitched slightly as he teased, “Benjamin is just too busy to deal with you


    right now!”


    There was a possibility Benjamin might settle scores with himter.


    “I''m heading back. Mr. Watts, are you leaving now?” Ethen didn''t have as much free time as Kingsley,


    so he wanted to go back and rest early.


    “I''ll leave with you!” Kingsley waved at Shaun, then went downstairs with Ethen.


    In the ward, Benjamin stayed by the bed, watching Arissa for a while. Once he was sure she was just


    asleep, he went about his own business.


    In the middle of the night, Arissa woke up only to find Benjamin still engrossed in his work, his brows


    furrowed in concentration.


    “Why are you still awake? What time is it now?”


    Upon hearing her voice, Benjamin raised his gaze and replied, “I''ve just concluded a meeting, and


    once I finalize one more document, I''ll go to sleep.”


    With business overseas, it was inevitable for him to schedule meetings across different time zones.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Benjamin often found himself dealing with overseas matters in the middle of the night.


    He got up and walked over, ruffling her hair. “Do you want to go to the bathroom?”


    “Mm!” Arissa was still sleepy.


    Benjamin bent down to pick her up, and she nestled softly in his arms. “What time is it?”


    “Half past twelve!” Benjamin lowered his gaze to look at her. Seeing that she was just sleepy, he felt


    much relieved.


    “Go take a quick shower and get some sleep. Work will never end, so you can continue tomorrow. Stop


    staying upte all the time!” Arissa nagged, but Benjamin didn''t find it annoying. He even responded in


    the affirmative.


    Once she was done, he carried her out and didn''t return to his work. Instead, he went to take a shower.


    Arissay on the bed, waiting for him toe out as she listened to the sound of watering from


    the bathroom. A slight smile curved at the corner of her mouth.


    It felt like only a few minutes had passed when Benjamin came out. Arissa''s eyes widened in surprise.


    “That was really fast.”


    “Yep! It was a quick shower.”


    Benjamin switched off the bathroom light and approached her bed. After all, a hospital wasn''t as


    convenient as home, and it waste at night. He didn''t want to disturb her sleep.


    “Why are you still awake?” Sitting on the bed, he tucked her in and switched off the lights, ready to go


    to bed.


    “I''m waiting for you!” After Arissa waited for him to lie down, she rolled into his arms instinctively.


    A familiar, pleasant fragrance wafted from her, filling Benjamin''s nostrils. His thin lips curved up slightly


    as he wrapped his long arms around her.


    He lowered his head to kiss her forehead, his domineering voice filled with affection. “Go to sleep!”


    “Goodnight, Darling!” Arissa said sweetly.


    Her words caused a blissful sensation to wash over him.


    It was such aforting sensation.


    He tenderly kissed her forehead again, responding softly, “Good night, Honey!”
