You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1174

“It's some pregnancy complication,” Benjamin answered ambiguously.

Kingsley did not know that something bad had happened to Arissa, so he assumed nothing could have happened to her since Benjamin was taking care of Arissa. Hence, his imagination went wild, and he conjured up inappropriate scenarios in his mind.

He grinned and said, “Boss, you should take it easy. You have to show some restraint since Arissa's condition isn't stable.”

Shaun, who was nearby, happened to hear his response. His lips twitched violently, but he did not tell Kingsley. Shaun wanted to hear Benjamin scold Kingsley for his crude remarks.

“She was kidnapped this afternoon!” Benjamin's voice turned cold, and Kingsley could sense the chilliness through the phone.

Kingsley shuddered and shouted, “Who the h*ll kidnapped Arissa? I'm going to skin him!”

The children who were playing in the living room with the elders turned to look when they heard Kingsley's shout.

Victor and the rest also looked toward Kingsley.

Kingsley smiled sheepishly. “It's nothing. You guys can continue playing.”

He moved away while holding his phone before he continued asking, “Boss, why didn't you say so? Is Arissa unharmed?”


“Why should I bother telling you? Shaun has already taken care of it.” Benjamin snorted.

Kingsley shot a glance at Shaun, who shrugged his shoulders. Shaun was carefreely eating fruit with a smile.

Kingsley rolled his eyes. What the heck! He's watching me make a fool of myself.

“Who's the one who has a death wish and dares to kidnap Arissa?” Kingsley asked, and he had no idea who it might be at the current moment.

After all, Benjamin had many enemies.

“Julian.” Benjamin's eyes flashed with anger when he saw the bruise on Arissa's wrist.

“Take care of Gavin and the others. You have to make sure to send them back safely after their meal,” Benjamin reminded, and he hung up without waiting for Kingsley's response.

Benjamin took the ointment and applied it to Arissa's wrist.

The kidnappers had tied her tightly therefore, Arissa winced in pain and pulled her hand back when the ointment touch her skin.

“Does it hurt a lot?” Benjamin's brows knitted, and his heart ached. He pulled Arissa's hand over and gently blew on it to soothe the pain.

Arissa's heart skipped a bit when she saw Benjamin seemed to be in greater pain than her.

“It's fine. It only hurts when it touches the ointment,” she comforted. Despite how it looked, the injury was not profoundly serious. It would probably take several days for those bruises to fade away.

Benjamin held her hand, and his motions were a little gentler. “Bear with it. It will be hard for the wound to heal quickly without medication.

“Okay.” Arissa's eyes twinkled, and she fixated her gaze on Benjamin, who was concerned about her. Arissa was very touched.

Arissa's eyebrows twitched when Benjamin's hand touched her wrist, but she put up with the pain.

When Benjamin looked up at her, she pretended nothing was wrong.
