When Benjamin saw her stunned expression, he lowered his voice and said, “Be a good girl and let him give you a
checkup. You can't afford to take any more stress. Otherwise, the children will be worried about you!”
Although the man had used the children as an excuse, Arissa could sense his care and concern for her.
“Okay!” She nodded in agreement.
After all, there was nothing to lose in getting a body checkup.
Once Edwin was done with the call, Darius asked worriedly, “Why is Benjamin calling Shaun over?”
Edwin was equally puzzled. “Perhaps, one of them is ill?”
“Ill?”
Darius frowned and asked, “Who's ill?”
Edwin looked up and replied, “Ms. York, I think. She wasn't feeling well earlier on...”
“That's right. I noticed that Issa's face was very pale when they came back!”
After saying that, Darius immediately rushed upstairs. “I have to go and check on her!”
“Old Mr. Graham, slow down!”
Edwin quickly helped him up the stairs. At the same time, William, who tagged along from the Old Manor, also went

Just as Benjamin was putting Arissa down on the bed, the three men walked in.
“Issa, are you not feeling well?”
Darius studied Arissa carefully with a concerned look in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Arissa, who was the center of attention, found it awkward that she was lying in someone's bed.
She wanted to sit up, but Benjamin stopped her. “Lie down!”
Arissa looked at Darius and reassured him, “I'm fine.”
“Fine? Then, why is Benjamin so worried about you? If you are feeling unwell, you should let us know. If you have to
go to the hospital, just go ahead. Don't force yourself to hold out!” Darius chided her.
However, when Arissa glanced at Benjamin, she noticed that he looked indifferent. He doesn't seem that worried
about me. Old Mr. Graham must be mistaken.
Benjamin gazed at her before he told his father, “Leave her be. She needs rest now. When Shaun is here, he will do
a body checkup for her.”
Darius pursed his lips as he said concernedly, “Take a good rest! You look so pale. Benjamin, you have to take good
care of her!”
“Sure!” Arissa was overwhelmed with awkwardness.
Both father and son exchanged glances before Darius left with the two butlers.
After walking out of the room, Darius instructed Edwin, “Let's get out of here so that we don't disturb Issa while she
rests! Edwin, go and check if Shaun has arrived!”
Instantly, the same thought ran through both butler's minds. It's you who disrupted Ms. York's rest first.
Meanwhile, Benjamin poured a glass of water and brought it to Arissa.
“Have some water!”
Arissa, who was being treated like a patient, could only sit up and do as she was told.
While she drank the water, Benjamin's eyes were fixated on her. Seeing that she was looking much better, he
started nagging, “I told you to rest at home. Why did you go out?”
Arissa looked at the man who was frowning and pursed her lips.
“After I discovered that Danna lied to you, I was enraged and rushed out.”
Benjamin's face fell at her answer.
“You could always give me a call. You didn't have to go over there on your own. What if something bad happened to
you? You should know the state you are in now. If she says anything to agitate you, will you even be able to stay

There was nothing Arissa could do at that moment but endure his reprimanding.
When Benjamin saw the tiny perspirations on her nose, he stopped talking.
Just then, Shaun rushed in with his medical box, panting away.
“Which one of you is ill?”
Benjamin turned and rolled his eyes at the doctor.
“Can't you see that Arissa is the one lying on the bed? Quick! Give her a body examination!”
Benjamin looked utterly displeased.
“Right away!” Shaun glanced at him and steadied his breathing before he quickly checked Arissa's blood pressure.
“It's normal. Mrs. Graham, are you feeling unwell?”
Arissa shook her head. “Earlier on, my legs felt weak—”
“She was looking very pale just now!”
Benjamin cut in and told Shaun about her condition.
The latter nodded and continued with the checkup.
“Why don't I put you on an IV drip? Mrs. Graham, please take care of yourself and try not to get too emotional.”
