Chapter 1041 At Your Service
“Mommy is having a stomachache?”
Zachary was not entirely convinced, as it didn't make sense for Benjamin to summon
Shaun over such a trivial matter.
“You're not telling me the truth! Didn't Mommy go horse riding with you? How could she
have eaten anything bad that would have caused a stomach ache then? Even if that were
true, Mr. Bailey wouldn't be needed because there would be doctors that could treat her
there!”
Benjamin raised his brows just as Shaun entered the ward. “Boss, I've gotten a better
understanding of Mrs. Graham's condition from the doctor and have taken a look at her
test report—”
Benjamin quickly cut Shaun off. “Hush! You're disturbing her sleep!”
Shaun scratched the tip of his nose sheepishly when he noticed that Benjamin was on the
phone.
“You need not fret yourself over your mommy. I'll ask her to call you once she wakes up. I
trust you to take good care of Grandpa and Great-grandaunt over there,” Benjamin
reassured Zachary.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, he hung up and went back into the ward.
Glancing at him, Shaun asked in a whisper, “Was it a call from one of the kids?”
“It was Zachary.”
“How severe is her condition?” Benjamin pocketed his phone and asked, worried.
Shaun looked at Arissa and lowered his voice as he said, “It shouldn't be taken lightly, but
neither is it too serious. It would be best for her to be on bed rest and not move around.
She should also avoid getting too worked up.”
Shaun explained Arissa's current condition while Benjamin took it all in attentively.
“I recommend that Mrs. Graham stay put in the hospital to be observed for several more
days and to get an injection to stabilize her pregnancy. She can transfer to my place once
her condition improves,” Shaun proposed to Benjamin.
“Got it.” Benjamin nodded.
Shaun handed him the pills and told him some other details.
“Boss, grind these pills and mix them with water before letting Mrs. Graham drink the
solution.”
“Okay.” Benjamin noted it down.
Shaun stayed behind and waited for Arissa to wake up.
When Edwin brought dinner over for them, Benjamin woke Arissa up.
Arissa called out blearily, “Benjamin.”
Blinking, she stared at the man standing at the side of the bed.
Benjamin bent over and caressed her head as he said soothingly, “Let's have dinner. You
can go back to sleep after that.”
“Sure.” Arissa was still muzzy from sleep as Benjamin went to the restroom to grab a
towel for her.
“Mrs. Graham, how are you feeling?” asked Shaun, checking Arissa's condition.
It was only then that she realized both Shaun and Edwin were present.
“Mr. Bailey, why are you here?”
Arissa struggled to sit up but Shaun stopped her from doing so. “Boss was worried and
asked me to come over to check up on you.”
Benjamin returned from the restroom and strode over, pushing Shaun aside as he carefully
helped Arissa up. “Take it easy.”
He then placed a pillow behind Arissa to support her back.
“Okay, I'll be careful.” Arissa nodded.
Not wanting to disturb the couple, Shaun turned away.

“I feel a little tired,” Arissa responded to Shaun's earlier question and greeted Edwin.
“That's normal since you're on a drip.” Shaun felt for the pulse on her wrist once more and
queried meticulously. “Is your stomach still painful?”
“Not at all.”
Arissa leaned against the headrest as she patiently answered the slew of questions from
Shaun.
Edwin was not privy to what happened to Arissa. As such, he listened in on their
conversation.
“Mrs. Graham, since you were bleeding, you should stay in bed as much as possible and
avoid sudden drastic movements. Even getting up from the bed as you did just now is
strongly discouraged. Be careful and take it slow. Try not to get too emotional, too.”
Shaun gave Arissa some pointers, advising her to watch out.
Arissa nodded. “I'll take note of that.”
“Also, don't get too nervous. Relaxing is key for a speedy recovery.”
He added, “If you need anything, Boss will be at your service.”
Amused, Arissa grinned when Shaun winked mischievously at her, signaling her to make
good use of Benjamin.
