You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1319 A Meal With Granddad

“Mr. Graham, should I place the documents and laptop in your study or bedroom?” Ethen asked.

Even though his voice had rung out from the doorway, his figure was nowhere in sight. As it turned out, he had deliberately stood clear of the door, careful not to intrude on Benjamin's privacy.

“Bring them in!” Benjamin ordered as he turned toward the door.

Realizing that the man wanted to work in the bedroom, Arissa spoke up. “Shouldn't you head to the study instead? How can you work in the bedroom!”

With the documents and laptop still in his hands, Ethen suddenly froze when he heard Arissa's words. Unsure if he should do as instructed, he stood at the door and watched the couple.

“It's convenient to work in the room,” Benjamin retorted before buttoning up his shirt and gesturing for Ethen to enter.

“What? How is this convenient?” Arissa said incredulously. There isn't even a desk in the bedroom... He'd have to sit on the couch to read his documents!

Upon hearing that, Benjamin glanced at her. “It'd be convenient for me to take care of you.”

A warm and fuzzy feeling instantly washed over Arissa. Despite that, she still wanted Benjamin to do his work in the study.

“Since we're all at home, I'll call you if I need help. Besides, you tend to disturb my rest when you're on your phone!” Arissa grumbled.


Benjamin shot another look at her. “Oh? So you find me annoying?”

Arissa laughed. “No, of course not. I don't want you to be distracted, and I can also enjoy a quiet rest.”

After much deliberation, Benjamin finally relented and turned to his assistant. “Ethen, take all these to the study!”

Ethen had just set everything down, but now, he had to pick them up again and head to the study. “Have a good rest, Mrs. Graham. I shan't disturb you further!”

Arissa hummed in acknowledgment as Benjamin sat down by the bed and held her hand. “Do you need to use the bathroom?”

“You'd better run along and take care of your business!” the woman said smilingly with a shake of her head.

“Give me a shout or call my phone if you need anything,” Benjamin reminded, gently squeezing her fingers.

“I know. I'm at home, for goodness' sake. Of course, I'd shout for help if anything happened,” Arissa replied coyly. “Go. Get on with your work, and don't worry about me!”

Even so, Benjamin accompanied her for a while before readying himself to attend to his work. Since he had gone to bed early the night before and hadn't dealt with many documents in the morning, it was no surprise that quite a bit of work had piled up.

The next second, Benjamin closed the door for Arissa and dropped one last reminder. “Don't get out of bed on your own!”

“Got it!” Arissa reassured as she waved her hand. “I'll stay in bed!”

Upon seeing her lying comfortably in bed, Benjamin finally felt at ease enough to tackle his workload.

Meanwhile, Arissa rubbed the blanket and sniffed it. Not only were there no musty odors, but she could also clearly pick up the comforting smell of sunshine.

Ah... It must've been either Edwin or Grandaunt who sunned the blanket earlier.

As Arissa basked in the comfort of being at home, a contented smile unknowingly spread across her face.

It's true. There's no place like home.
