The More the Merrier novel Chapter 806

Chapter 806 Remember Your Meds

Benjamin raised a brow before he quietly backed away. Arissa shut the door to get changed quickly before she went out. Seated on the couch with his legs crossed in a leisurely manner, Benjamin cut an unbelievably dashing figure.

The moment she stepped out, his eyes locked upon her form. Arissa swiftly met his gaze. “I’m ready!”

Benjamin got up to approach and swept her into his embrace with one hand. As she was pressed up against his body, Arissa’s heart rate picked up as she took in that familiar scent from the man’s body. “What are you doing?”

Benjamin cupped her face and gently rubbed her cheeks with his thumbs in earnest, causing Arissa’s heart to pound against her ribcage. “I’ll apply the cream for you after lunch!”

Hearing the man’s words made her cheeks flush red. “Haven’t I already done just that?”

An amused glint entered his eyes as he caressed her lips. “I was referring to up here!” With her face feeling as hot as the sun, Arissa pushed him away and turned to walk toward the outside.

Being in a good mood, he caught up with her and held her hand while they made their way downstairs. Edwin smiled broadly when he saw them descend the steps, hands intertwined.

“Lunch is ready, Mr. and Mrs. Graham.” “Good. You may start serving it!”

Benjamin nodded and led Arissa over while the smiling Edwin hurried along to make preparations. Arissa stared at the man beside her. “How long have you been back?”

“Only for a while before you woke up.”

Benjamin glanced over at her.

“Oh!”

Not wanting to meet his gaze, Arissa blinked and looked elsewhere.

Benjamin’s brows quirked up. He led her to the dining room and pulled out her chair for her before he sat himself down at the head of the table.

Edwin proceeded to serve them some soup.

“Do help yourself to more, Mrs. Graham!”

“I will. Thank you, Edwin!” Arissa replied warmly.

Benjamin turned to speak to Edwin. “Is her medication ready?”

“Yes, it is.”

Edwin nodded in affirmation, and after acknowledging him, Benjamin waved him away.

Arissa looked toward Benjamin quizzically. “My medication?”

“Yeah.” Benjamin took one look at her. “Remember to take it after the meal.”

Arissa regarded Benjamin gratefully. “Dr. Leal told me that it was her you went to for the prescription. For a moment, I almost thought that you had gotten it from Dr. Bailey, so thank you!”
