The More the Merrier novel Chapter 585

Chapter 585 Sweet Talking Him To Eat Medicine

Benjamin had thrown a sharp glance over, but the look in his eyes immediately softened upon realizing it was Arissa.

“Why are you here instead of going to sleep?” he uttered while attempting to grab the document back. However, Arissa avoided him.

“Mr. Frank told me you’re unwilling to take your medicine!”

A frown formed between his eyebrows. “Such a blabbermouth!”

Seeing his tensed expression and his forehead beaded with sweat, Arissa did not argue with him.

“Do you have medicine here?”

As there was no response from the man, she began rummaging around. When she spotted the contents in the rubbish bin, she bent over to pick it up and stared at him, speechless. To her, the man before her eyes seemed to be much more difficult to please than a child.

“How can you not take your medicine?” she cooed.

She then poured a glass of warm water, grabbed some pills, and passed it to him.

“Hurry and take some medicine. I’ve already sent Ethen to go get you something to eat.”

Clenching his teeth, Benjamin tried to suppress the unbearable feeling.

Noticing more sweat droplets forming on his forehead, Arissa only grew more worried. “Are you all right?”

She hurriedly passed him some tissues to wipe his sweat away while reaching her hand out to rub his back.

After a while, Benjamin finally felt much better.

“Take your medicine first!” She passed him the glass of water and handed him the pills.

“It’s acting up because you skipped your meals again. Here, eat your medicine. Otherwise, the pain will come back again.”

Her soft and patient voice was exactly like how she would coax the kids to take their medicine. And because of that, Benjamin felt slightly better that he took the pills from her and ate them.

Then, she put the glass of warm water near his mouth, and the man took a few sips.

“Drink more.”

The man took the glass from Arissa and gulped the water down.

“Go lie down for some rest. It’ll take some time for Ethan to come back.” She put the glass away and looked at him concernedly.

Leaning against his seat, Benjamin responded, “I have a meeting later.”

Arissa’s tone turned a little more aggressive as she shot him a stern glance. “Is your health more important than your work?”

He had no choice but to lie down on the couch after her reprimand. “Help me massage my head.”
