Chapter 1042 Benjamin Feeding Her

Arissa eyed Benjamin. Likewise, Benjamin locked his gaze on her with a concerned look.

She comforted him in a soft voice, “I'm all right.”

Benjamin gently tucked her stray hair behind her ear and asked, “Do you want to eat now?”

“Yes,” Arissa said as she nodded.

Benjamin asked Edwin to prop the small table on the bed.

Edwin and Shaun proceeded to set it up without delay.

“Let's drink some soup first,” Benjamin said.

He took over the bowl of hot soup and blew on it to cool it down before feeding her.

“Careful. It's hot.”

Shaun and Edwin, who were standing aside, were astounded when they saw how meticulous and considerate Benjamin was being.

They had never seen him so patient and gentle, not even when he used to feed Gavin in the past.

Arissa took a sip. When she noticed that Shaun and Edwin were watching them intently, her face flushed with embarrassment. “Let's eat together, guys!”

In a good mood, Shaun rubbed his hands together and said, “Mrs. Graham, you should eat first.”

“You go ahead and take your time eating. I'm going to eat after I return home later. So, is something up with you, Mrs. Graham?” Edwin inquired out of concern.

Shaun explained Arissa's situation to Edwin on her behalf, “Mrs. Graham is pregnant.” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“Huh? Really?” Edwin was taken aback by the news.

“However, they went horse riding today and almost... Anyway, just prepare foods that are suitable for pregnant women,” Shaun reminded Edwin.

Edwin nodded his head happily. “All right. I got it!”

Mrs. Graham is pregnant again! We're going to have a new family member!

Shaun smiled when he noticed how happy Edwin was.

Benjamin shot a look at the two of them, uttering, “We're good here. You guys may head back home today. Don't mention this to other people for the time being, especially to Old Mr. Graham. I don't wish for him to come all the way here from the hospital and disturb his rest.”

Shaun glanced at the couple before leaving to avoid disturbing Arissa's rest.

He gave some advice to Benjamin before he took his medical box to leave. “Benjamin, remember to feed Arissa medicine after she's done eating.”

“Sure.” Benjamin reminded him, “Don't let Gavin and the others know.”

“Of course,” Shaun said with a grin. Then, he bid Arissa goodbye before leaving.

“Mr. Graham, Mrs. Graham, I'll get going too, then. Just set the food containers aside when you guys are done. I'll come to collect them tomorrow,” Edwin informed before leaving with Shaun.

“Okay!” Arissa gave a nod.

The ward fell silent after they left, and Benjamin continued to feed Arissa soup.

“I'll eat on my own. You must be hungry too. Let's eat together,” Arissa suggested.

She fixed her gaze on the serious man. My husband sure is considerate.

Benjamin merely glanced at her. “You must finish the soup first.”

Arissa had no choice but to let Benjamin resume feeding her. Meanwhile, Benjamin continued to feed her patiently.

“Watch out for bones.”

“Okay.”

The warm soup made Arissa feel much better.

Benjamin fed her pasta after she was done with the soup.

“Here, let me.”

Arissa attempted to take the plate, but Benjamin pulled away and insisted, “Don't move around. Come on, eat your pasta.”

“I can eat on my own,” Arissa mumbled.

She was afraid that he might be hungry too.

Benjamin stared at her and said, “I have to make sure you're full first, no matter how late it gets.”

Arissa's lips curled into a smile. “It feels better to eat together.”

Benjamin's eyes glinted, and he took a bite of the pasta before he continued feeding her, prompting her to smile.

Although he would occasionally take a few bites, his main focus was on feeding Arissa and ensuring that she was well-fed.

“I'm too full now. Hurry up and eat. The food won't taste as good cold.”

Arissa pushed away the forkful of pasta and urged Benjamin to eat instead.

“Okay.” Benjamin only started to eat her leftovers then.

Arissa's eyes crinkled, looking quite satisfied as she quietly watched Benjamin eat.
