“I'm having a slight headache!” Mary answered truthfully.

“Her blood pressure is a little high,” Shaun instructed a nurse to give Mary an injection.

“Mdm. Mary, we'll give you an injection, okay?” Shaun asked.

Mary was comfortable with Shaun's gentleness. “Okay. Go ahead.”

“Be careful. Don't inflict any pain on Mdm. Mary,” Shaun reminded the nurse before turning toward Arissa and Tim. “Go and get some rest, okay? I'll look after Mdm. Mary!”

Arissa was stunned.

“Well, someone is worried that you might not be getting enough sleep. Get some rest, okay, Mrs. Graham? If you don't, that someone is going to scold me!” Shaun teased.

Arissa was startled by his words. It seems like Benjamin has told him to do so.

She then looked at Shaun and asked courteously, “Don't you need to rest?”

“Since Mdm. Mary is my only patient here, I'm rather free! Besides, her test results aren't ready yet. I'll rest after you guys have rested. Go on.” Shaun then turned toward Tim and said, “Tim, get some rest with your mommy, okay? Since I'm here, you guys have nothing to worry about, right?”

Tim merely glanced at Arissa in response.

Arissa breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see much of a reaction from Tim.

“We'll get some rest after this,” Arissa answered and watched Mary getting the injection.

After that, she took a slice of cheesecake for Tim and kept another for herself. “Dr. Bailey, distribute the rest among yourselves, okay? Since Gavin and the others had already gone back, the cakes are going to melt if they are not eaten.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Graham!” Delighted, Shaun sat down and started eating.

Arissa glanced at him and said, “Dr. Bailey, you should just address me by my first name instead of Mrs. Graham.”

Shaun smiled and answered, “I'm so used to it now, Mrs. Graham!”

Arissa was rendered speechless.

Arissa and Tim kept Mary accompanied a while more before Mary got sleepy. Only then did they head toward the room next door to get some rest.

Arissa caressed Tim's head and uttered lovingly, “Sweetheart, you like the cake, right? When I'm free, I'll make you some. I know how to make them!”

Tim looked at her and said, “Thank you!”

“You're welcome!” Arissa smiled.

After eating the cheesecake, she took a napkin and wiped Tim's mouth. “You should go to the restroom before taking your nap.”

Tim hummed in acknowledgment. However, he still went to the room next door to sneak a peek at Mary.

He only went back to Arissa feeling relieved after seeing Shaun watching over Mary, who was fast asleep.

When Arissa was done making the bed, she saw Tim running to the restroom, so she sat by the bed to wait for him.

Soon after, Tim came out of the restroom. “I'm done, Ms. York!”
