You More Than Anything In The World

“I still have to take care of Mdm. Mary, no? How can I just go back to the hotel?” Arissa shifted her gaze and looked elsewhere.

Benjamin's expression became stern when he stared at her and said, “Bring the kids back for a rest. After that, go over. You can't possibly stay at the hospital the whole time, can you? You might end up tiring yourself out instead of taking care of Mdm. Mary!”

Arissa shot Benjamin a look in response. Is he just asking me to go there and rest?

Arissa was stumped when she realized she had misunderstood him.

“There's a lounge at the hospital. If I'm tired, I'll just go there and have a shut-eye. Otherwise, I would have to keep going back and forth between the hospital and the hotel!”

Benjamin frowned and retorted, “The bed at the hospital is small, so it's better to rest at the hotel. Even if you don't want to have a good rest, the kids need it too!”

“You should bring the kids back with you, then. I'll stay at the hospital.” Arissa didn't want to go back to the hotel because she knew Tim would want to stay at the hospital to keep Mary company.

Benjamin was annoyed. Why is this woman so stubborn?

After that, he pinched Arissa's cheek.

In pain, Arissa glared at Benjamin in disbelief. “What did you pinch me for?”

Benjamin's face fell. “Arissa, why must you go against everything I say? Why don't you just go back and rest?”

Arissa was rendered speechless when she saw how angry he had gotten.

Meeting his stern gaze, she smiled and said, “I'm just worried about Mdm. Mary and the kids, okay?”

Her voice was soft and melodious. It was as if she was acting coquettishly.

Benjamin's mood lightened up instantly. “It's good that you're worried about them. However, you ought to take care of yourself so that you won't faint again. The kids are worried about you!”

For some reason, Arissa felt blissful when she saw how serious Benjamin looked. With a hint of slyness in her eyes, she asked in a low voice, “Benjamin, are you worried about me?”

“I find you annoying!” Benjamin scoffed proudly.

Hearing that, Arissa sat up straight and answered, “Fine!”

Benjamin raised his brows when he noticed her disappointment. “Do you want me to worry about you?”

Why is he asking if I want that? Arissa shot him a look and asked, “Graham, does it matter if I want that or not? If I want you to fall in love with me, will you do as I wish?”

Benjamin stared at her intently and asked in a deep and alluring voice, “Do you want me to fall in love with you?”

Arissa blinked a few times and uttered, “I wonder if that's even a good idea!”

Benjamin's face fell at her answer.

Shaun overheard their conversation the moment he walked into the private room. Pfft! This is interesting! Arissa is the only person who dares to speak to Benjamin this way!

Indeed, not only did Benjamin not get angry, but he had also gone along with her in the conversation.

“Benjamin, is it that hard to just confess your feelings?” Shaun asked.
