The More The Merrier Chapter 372

Chapter 372 You Are A Liar

Benjamin raised his brows as she sounded convincing.

“Arissa, I didn’t think you could lie so well. You were a great actress earlier!”

It startled Arissa.

She exploded with rage. “What do you mean by that? I did it so that the children wouldn’t have to worry!”

“They were still lies!”

Benjamin retorted, “You also told me many lies previously, so you are a liar!”

Stumped for words, Arissa leaned back on her pillow and refused to speak to him.

Benjamin scanned her from head to toe. After he adjusted her drip, he sat beside her bed.

Refusing to meet his eyes, Arissa looked elsewhere.

Benjamin still had more to say. However, he decided not to continue since she still looked pale.

Later, he got up to refill her water.

He walked back and insisted, “Drink up!” In response, she scowled at him.

Although she reached out her hands to take the cup from him, he pushed them away. Then, he fed her the water.

After she took a sip, she choked on the water.

Ahem… ahem…!

“Why are you like a child?”

Benjamin frowned and patted her back.

Arissa coughed a few times before she finally caught her breath.

Glaring at the man in front of her, she stated with annoyance, “I wanted to drink the water by myself. Yet, you

insisted on feeding it to me. How could you blame me for choking after that? How is it my fault?”

Unsure of how else to respond, Benjamin pushed the cup into her hands. “There! You can drink it yourself.”

Arissa took over the cup and drank the water. She felt more comfortable afterward.

When she finished it, Benjamin collected the empty glass from her. “Do you want anymore?”

“Nope,” Arissa heatedly responded.



Scowling at Benjamin, she thanked him in a rude tone. “Thank you!”

Benjamin glanced past her and set the glass down.

Seeing how the IV drip was almost empty, he pressed a button for the medical staff. Within seconds, the doctor and

nurse came.

“The IV drip bag is empty now,” Benjamin told them.

Following the procedure, the nurse came forward to take out the needle attached to Arissa. However, Arissa yelped

as soon as she touched it.

Instantly, Benjamin grew protective of Arissa and scolded the nurse, “Be gentle!”

The medical staff was taken aback by Benjamin’s outburst.

Similarly, Arissa was equally shocked by his reaction. She looked at Benjamin’s stern glare before turning back to

the nurse.

She comforted, “No worries. Please go on to take it out.”

Immediately, the nurse removed it and pasted a plaster over her arm to stop the bleeding.

Arissa subconsciously touched the wound. It does hurt a little.

“Check if there are any issues with her.”

Benjamin ordered with an indifferent expression.

“Noted!”

The doctor was unaware of who he was. Besides, his cold aura frightened them, and they quickly did a check-up on

Arissa.

They also asked her some questions, and she replied obediently.

“Remember to rest more and avoid getting agitated. It will also be good to keep your spirits up,” the doctor

advised.

“Thank you, doctor!” Arissa nodded her head, aware of her situation.

When the doctor and nurse left, Benjamin wanted to interrogate her but Shaun and Bradley returned with the food.

“Eat up!”

Benjamin pulled the overbed table over, and Bradley quickly put the food they bought on it.

“Boss, please eat!”

Arissa nodded and sat up.

Benjamin helped her up too.

He opened the container of oatmeal porridge and mixed it for her.

Seeing how focused he looked, Arissa urged, “I can do it myself!”

Anyhow, Benjamin shot her a look and continued to mix it. “Eat it once it cools down.”

Arissa did not know what to say.

Meanwhile, Shaun and Bradley watched the exchange in silence.

“Benjamin, I also bought lunch for you. You can eat over here!”

Shaun placed their meals on another table in the corner of the room. After he sat down, he gestured for Benjamin

to join them.

But Benjamin ignored him. He looked up and spotted Arissa smacking her lips in anticipation. The sight made him

grin.

“You must be hungry.”

Arissa turned to him and pursed her lips when she spotted the teasing look in his eyes.

“Of course I am!”

Benjamin chuckled.

Scooping up some oatmeal, he held it near her mouth. “Careful, it’s hot.”

It took Arissa by surprise. Feeling the heat from Shaun and Bradley’s stares, her face turned red.

On the other hand, Benjamin calmly looked at her and fed her another scoop, unbothered by the other two

spectators in the ward.
