Chapter 267 How Dare She Whine
The bodyguards took the trash and the lobster away. They kept one box each for themselves while the rest were distributed to the medical practitioners on duty.
“I think I heard Mr. Watts screaming.”
Arissa looked out the window, wondering if she had imagined the whole thing.
Benjamin looked up at her. “Hurry up. I want to go to bed!”
Arissa was caught slightly off guard by that. She stared at him, speechless. “Go on then. I’m not stopping you.”
Benjamin stared at her. “I can’t. The lights are on!”
Arissa’s mouth twitched. However, she did as she was told and sped up.
“Bring me my clothes. I want to get changed.” Benjamin said to her after she cleaned things up.
Arissa walked over to his bag. “Pajamas?”
She glanced at him.
“Yes.” Benjamin put the documents down and sat up straight.
Arissa handed him his boxers and pajamas and put his bag down.
Benjamin was changing when she turned back around. Hence, she looked away to give him some privacy.
After he was done changing, she put his bathrobe away.
“Shall I turn off the lights now?”
“I want to work for a little while longer.”
Benjamin sat down and picked up his documents.
Arissa gritted her teeth in annoyance. He pestered me to hurry up just now because he wants to go to bed, and now he’s telling me he’s going to work for a little while longer? Who does that?
“Can’t you continue tomorrow? It’s getting really late.”
She was reminding him to take care of himself. Work could wait.
“Ethen will be coming over to pick up these documents tomorrow morning,” Benjamin replied.
Arissa stared at him and sat back down on the couch.
She placed a pillow on one end, lay down, and began scrolling through her phone.
Arissa took a photo of the hospital, typed some caption, and posted it on her Instagram story.
Benjamin’s phone lit up as he received a notification.
He glanced at Arissa and read the notification.
Arissa: Sigh. I’ll be sleeping on the couch tonight. What a sad life!
