The More the Merrier novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Applying Topical Medication On Her Again

When Shaun saw the large bruise on Arissa’s arm, he gasped in shock. “Who did this to you?”

Just as he was about to check her injury, Arissa’s face was contorted with pain.

Noticing her reaction, Benjamin, who was standing at the side, frowned and shouted at Shaun, “Be gentle!”

His action brought a small smile onto Shaun’s face.

“Since you don’t bring her to the hospital for an X-ray, I can only perform a physical assessment on her,” Shaun explained. “She has to endure the pain. If I don’t do this, it is impossible to know if she has a broken bone.”

Benjamin’s dashing face turned sullen and grim upon hearing that.

Cold sweat trickled down Arissa’s forehead while Shaun continued on with the physical assessment. It was so painful that the corner of her lips started to twitch.

“Does she have a fracture?” Benjamin asked coldly.

“Nope. She is fine,” Shaun answered with a grin on his face.

Upon hearing the good news, Benjamin let out a sigh of relief.

Arissa rubbed her injured arm gently, trying to relieve the pain.

“You need to apply some ointment on it. Make sure you use enough of it. Do it every few hours, and you’ll recover in a few days,” Shaun reminded.

“Thank you,” Arissa answered politely.

Shaun took the ointment and wanted to apply it for her. However, before he managed to do that, Benjamin grabbed the topical medication away from him.

Feeling amused by his action, Shaun backed away.

“Give me your arm!” Benjamin took a glance at Arissa.

Noticing Shaun’s teasing gaze, she felt embarrassed and wanted to reject Benjamin. “I can do it myself.”

Despite that, he grabbed her arm and started to apply some ointment on her.

“Ouch!” She gritted her teeth and screamed in pain. “It hurts so much! Please be gentle!”

Standing at the side, Shaun wanted to burst out laughing.

Arissa wanted to retrieve her arm, but she was stopped by Benjamin. The way he applied the ointment was so painful that she broke out in cold sweat.

Is he applying medication for me or trying to hurt me?

“Mr. Graham, I can do it myself. You’re hurting me!” Arissa yelled, suppressing the urge to berate him.
