The More the Merrier novel Chapter 686

Chapter 686 No Need To Sneak Around

When Ethen walked in and heard those words, he was unsure if he was supposed to leave or stay. What secret did I just hear? Will Mr. Graham kill me because I heard it?

A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes, and he shot him a side-eye. “Hand me the medicine!” he ordered coldly. “Yes!” Ethen quickly went over to him and uttered fearfully, “Here you go, Mr. Graham.”

Benjamin took the items from him. “Get out!”

“Yes!” Ethen got out of there as fast as he could.

As he was walking out, he glanced at Arissa from the corners of his eyes and saw her swollen lips. Excitement welled up in his heart.

So the wound on Ms. York was actually caused by Mr. Graham’s bite? What a shocker!

Meanwhile, Arissa did not know whether to feel grateful to Benjamin when she saw that he intended to apply the ointment to her wound for her.

After all, he was the one who caused it.

Benjamin took a cotton swab and dipped it inside a bottle of antiseptic solution before lifting her chin. “Don’t move!”

Arissa cast him a glance and let him dress her wound.

When the antiseptic came into contact with her wound, she could not help but inhale sharply because it was quite painful.

Benjamin’s eyes flickered in response. “Bear with it!”

He tightened his grip on her chin so that she could not move. The pain lasted for quite a while, causing her face to scrunch up.

When he saw her reaction, his eyes glinted with amusement.

“It’ll be all right after this.”

His remark infuriated her. “It was already getting better, but you just had to bite it again!”

Benjamin chuckled and appeased her in a gentle voice. “I’ll be more careful next time.”

Arissa felt embarrassed when she met his eyes, which crinkled with joy.

“You’re crazy!” she murmured.

Upon receiving a warning look from him, she pursed her lips.

Benjamin proceeded to apply the ointment to her wound.

“All done!” he announced a few seconds later.

Arissa tilted her head and stood up. “I’m leaving now.”

That time around, he did not say anything.

Instead, he took her straw hat and put it on for her. After that, he put on her sunglasses for her and pulled her hat lower.

“You don’t have to sneak around when you come to see me,” he said.
