Seeing how worried Benjamin was, Shaun reminded Arissa in a serious tone to ease the man's worries.
In truth, Arissa was already fine.
“Okay, thank you,” Arissa thanked the doctor before lying quietly on the bed while waiting to get her injection.
Meanwhile, Benjamin was watching her closely at the side.
“You can go off first if you're busy,” Arissa said to him.
Benjamin glanced at her before looking toward Shaun.
After Shaun prescribed some medication for Arissa, he quickly proceeded to give her the IV drip.
When Benjamin saw the needle, he frowned and reminded Shaun, “Be gentler!”
Feeling amused, Shaun replied, “I haven't even poked the needle in yet.”
He turned to look at his friend, who had a deep crease between his brows, and Shaun felt surprised.
He had never seen Benjamin showing so much concern toward another person before.
Moreover, it was a woman.
Jokes aside, when Shaun was about to poke the needle into Arissa's arm, he said to her, “I'm going to inject you
now, Mrs. Graham. So bear with it for a moment.”
“Sure.” Arissa nodded.

Benjamin stepped forward to hold her hand down while saying, “Hurry up.”
Shaun was rather speechless.
As Arissa's field of vision was blocked by Benjamin, she merely felt a prick on her arm for a second and nothing
else.
Fixing her gaze on the man, who still had his brows tightly knitted, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
Suddenly, Benjamin looked over. Meeting his gaze, Arissa froze for a second.
“Does it hurt?”
His deep voice rang out, creating ripples in her heart.
Arissa shook her head in a daze before turning away, her cheeks burning slightly.
Benjamin's gaze darkened as he started stroking her arm, trying to ease her discomfort caused by the IV drip.
After Shaun secured the needle, he said to Benjamin, “Okay. It's all done.”
Noticing that the doctor had increased the flow rate of the drip, Benjamin frowned and asked, “Why is it going so
fast?”
When Shaun heard that, he adjusted the flow rate to slow it down.
He was so amused to the point where he did not know whether to laugh or cry. He started to pack up his medical

box while teasing Benjamin, “That was the normal speed. As long as Mrs. Graham does not feel any discomfort, it
should be fine. Gosh, look at how worried you are! If that's the case, you should stay here and watch over her
yourself. I'm going to head downstairs to have some tea with Mr. Graham!”
After he finished speaking, Shaun headed out of the room carrying his medical box while avoiding Benjamin's glare.
Arissa snuck a glance at Benjamin and said, “You should just get going. I'll be fine.”
After tucking her in, Benjamin placed a pillow under her hand which had the needle in it, and said, “Have some
rest.”
He only left after making sure that Arissa was comfortable.
Arissa glanced at the door, assuming that Benjamin had gone off to work in his study. To her surprise, he was back
soon after with some documents and his laptop.
She could not help but feel touched.
“Go to sleep,” Benjamin urged when he saw that her eyes were still wide open.
He started working after putting his things down.
Looking at him, who glanced at her intermittently while working, Arissa felt a sense of comfort.
After a while, she fell asleep.
Meanwhile, the five little ones were in school.
Even though they appeared to be paying attention in class, they were, in fact, using their tablets underneath their

desks.
The screen showed Danna's movements from five years back.
As Jesse was not as good as her brothers in that area, she was the only one who was actually concentrating in class
while at the same time keeping an eye on the situation for the boys.
Although the kids cooperated with each other well, they did not manage to get any results even after working on it
for a few hours as there was simply too much work to do.
“I've finished watching this video, but I still don't see Gavin!” Jasper reported to the three other boys.
“I don't see him in the area I'm in charge of as well.”
Oliver adjusted his glasses and looked at the rest.
“I don't see anything either!” Gavin said.
Frowning, Zachary stroked his chin while thinking of how they should proceed with their investigation.
They were checking the footage of the surveillance cameras, starting from the Graham residence, where Danna
was last seen with Gavin.
However, they lost track of her after a while.
“She seemed to have stayed here for a longer time compared to other places... Let's be more attentive and track
her daily whereabouts!”
“Got it.”
The four little ones carried on with their investigation.
