Chapter 1038
At once, Benjamin yanked on the reins and brought the horse to a stop.
At the sight of Arissa clutching her stomach, her face turning paler, Benjamin could feel
his heart clench tightly. Panicking, he had no idea what to do.
“Does your stomach hurt?”
He hugged her, his striking face stretched taut.
Nodding, Arissa continued clutching her stomach. The cramping pain was similar to the
onset of her menstruation, but it was also somewhat different.
Benjamin swiftly leaped off the horse and carried her down.
He phoned the manager and instructed him to drive over.
While waiting, he massaged Arissa's stomach. “The car will be here very soon!”
His brows knitted deeply together. Scooping her up in a bridal carry, he walked ahead.
Arissa gritted her teeth and endured the pain, her face drained of all color.
She felt as though something was flowing out of her body.
Panic swamped her, for she wasn't quite sure what was happening.
Soon, the manager arrived with the car. Getting in with the woman in his arms, Benjamin
ordered the man to drive out of the ranch.
“Does it still hurt badly? I'll take you to the hospital right away!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArissa continued weathering the waves of agony. By the time they reached the gates, the
pain had eased significantly.
Carrying her out of the car, Benjamin prepared to exit the ranch. At that precise moment,
however, Arissa asked him to put her down.
“Put me down first. I need to make a trip to the restroom.”
With a deep frown marring his countenance, Benjamin scooped her up and strode toward
the restroom.
Arissa looked up at him. Upon seeing that he was worried sick, she cajoled, “Calm down.
I'm feeling better now.”
Still, Benjamin's brows remained scrunched together. He carried her into the restroom
before placing her down. “Be careful.”
In response, Arissa bobbed her head. “I will. Wait for me outside.”
Then, she hurried into the cubicle.
“Just call me if you need me,” Benjamin asserted before he spun on his heel and went out
to wait for her.
At the sight of some blood on her panties, Arissa frowned.
Am I having my menstruation now? Hmm, my period seems to have been late for a week
this month.
When Arissa abruptly remembered that, her heart skipped a beat.
She peed before leaving the restroom.
Benjamin was waiting for her right outside, and he hastened forward to support her as
soon as he saw her coming out.
“I'll take you to the hospital.”
As he said that, he bent down, scooped her up, and headed out.
Arissa eyed him hesitantly, not quite sure what was wrong with herself. “Perhaps it's just
that time of the month.”
However, her pallid expression only made Benjamin's frown deepen. “It's better to go to
the hospital.”
In truth, Arissa was also somewhat panicked. It didn't seem like I was on my menstrual
cycle when I went to the restroom earlier. Yeah, I suppose it'd be better to go to the
hospital to get checked out.
“To the hospital, quick!” Benjamin ordered frantically.
Carrying Arissa into the car, he sat her on his lap and poured her a glass of warm water.
“Here, have some warm water.”
Arissa took a few sips of it.
Benjamin continued massaging her stomach. “Are you feeling better yet?”
“It isn't as painful anymore.”
Arissa grasped his hand in consolation.
Hugging her tightly, Benjamin grabbed a blanket and draped it over her. Meanwhile, Arissa
leaned back against him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe car sped toward the hospital.
“Just go to the nearest hospital!” Benjamin said to the bodyguard at the wheel.
“Understood, Mr. Graham!” The driver accelerated.
At the same time, Arissa's grip on his hand tightened. “Calm down, Benjamin. I'm much
better now.”
Benjamin lowered his eyes, anxiety ramping up within him as she still looked as pale as
ever.
She was perfectly fine a minute ago, but her stomach suddenly cramped horribly the next
moment. Could it be food poisoning?
When they arrived at the hospital, he sprinted to the emergency room with her in his
arms.
The examination by the doctor took ten minutes.
“Luckily, it isn't too serious. However, you need to be on bed rest!” the doctor instructed
Arissa.
Hearing that, Arissa frowned. “What's wrong with me, doctor?”
“What's the matter with her, doctor?”
Benjamin had been keeping watch by her side, his brows perpetually creased.
Staring them in the eye, the doctor explained, “She's two months pregnant. Right now,
she's showing signs of a miscarriage, as evidenced by the light bleeding. As such, it's best
that she remains on bed rest and avoid any strenuous exercises.”
Surprise washed over Arissa. I-I'm pregnant again?
Meanwhile, Benjamin's heartbeat sped up.
