The More the Merrier novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354 If You Were Not Their Father

Benjamin remained seated but did not reach out to take the glass of water and medicine from her.

“Take your medicine, Benjamin Graham.” Arissa raised her voice.

He shot her a glance and replied, “My stomach hurts. I don’t want to take it!”

His remark evoked a dubious look from her. He was fine earlier on, and now his stomach hurts?

“Are you telling the truth?”

Benjamin’s expression darkened. “No, I lied. Get out!”

Arissa was taken aback by his sudden bellow.

What’s wrong with this man!

“Are you really not going to take this?” she asked.

The man did not reply and merely pursed his lips.

Arissa put down the medicine and glass of water before walking out of the room.

Fine. It’s your problem, not mine! Such a weirdo.

She went straight to the children’s room and lay beside them quietly and carefully.

However, she could not seem to fall asleep as she kept thinking about Benjamin.

Does he really have a stomachache?

A few moments later, her concern for him compelled her to crawl out of bed cautiously and head to Benjamin’s bedroom.

Arissa’s heart sank when she saw him curling up to sleep from afar.

She went into the room and realized he was breaking out in cold sweat and gritting his teeth as if he was in a lot of pain.

While patting his arm, she asked, “Hey, Benjamin. Are you okay?”

Benjamin’s eyes flickered open; his gaze was fierce.

“It’s none of your business!”

Annoyed by his callous behavior, Arissa was tempted to leave him alone to suffer if not for the fact he was the father of her children.

“Is it that bad? Do you have medicine for it?”

Benjamin clenched his teeth and did not respond to her question.

Arissa started panicking upon noticing the sweat droplets rolling down his face. “I’ll take you to the hospital!”

“No!” He squeezed out that word through gritted teeth.

“Should I call Shaun over?” she suggested, taking out her phone.

Just as she was about to dial Shaun’s number, she saw Benjamin glaring at her, his eyes flashing.
