Chapter 805 I Will Carry You In There
According to the doctor she consulted previously, it would be difficult for her to conceive
again given her situation, so she assumed that that would not be the case. “Thank you, Dr.
Leal!”
She then got up to see Liane off. “Don’t worry about me, I can make my own way out. Take
care to rest, and do have something to eat before that. Also, remember to apply the
cream!”
“Okay!” Arissa nodded. It was only after Liane went downstairs that she returned to her
room to resume eating, after which she lay down to rest on the bed.
Initially, she did not think herself tired. In the end, though, she wound up fast asleep. She
was not sure how much time had transpired before she felt someone touching her.
As soon as Arissa roused and saw what Benjamin was doing, she became self-conscious and
hastily pulled the blanket over to cover herself.
“You…”

Benjamin lifted his eyes to regard her. His lips curled up when he saw her face turn as red
as a beetroot.

before!”
That caused Arissa to blush even harder. She shot a flustered look at him before she buried
her face inside the blanket.
“Benjamin Graham, you pervert!”
Her shyness only made Benjamin chuckle as he pulled aside the blanket, and his voice was
gentle and teeming with affection. “Come on, now. I’m just going to help put this cream on.
It’s going to make things all better!”
“It’s fine. I can do this myself!”
Arissa felt like she desperately needed to go into hiding somewhere.
Her refusal elicited a subtle sigh from Benjamin. “Oh, fine. You do it yourself then!”
Arissa was being driven insane at the man’s obliviousness toward the extent of her
embarrassment.
“Do it now, or I’ll do it for you!” he threatened.
She turned and poked her eyes out to stare at the man.
“Hmm?”
Benjamin pretended to move in closer, prompting Arissa to scurry off to the side. “I’ll do it
myself, so just turn around and look away!”
Staring at her for a moment, Benjamin nonetheless complied and did as asked.
Grabbing the jar, Arissa swiftly applied the cream to her wounds. Following that, she got
dressed and stood up to go to the bathroom.
Owing to the manner her unhealed body was still smarting, her movements were a little
stiff when she walked.
A pair of arms suddenly reached out from behind her and swept her up, giving Arissa quite
the fright.
“I’ll carry you in there!”
Benjamin peered down at her.
Red to the ears, Arissa turned away to avoid his gaze while Benjamin’s lips curled up
slightly.
After carrying her into the bathroom, he placed her down on a chair.
Arissa stood to her feet hastily to wash her hands, but she cast a glance in Benjamin’s
direction when she saw that he was still hanging around.
“Are you going to wash your hands?”
As she eyed the man’s hands, their well-defined and slender form brought a flush to her
cheeks, which drove her to avert her gaze while banishing the errant thoughts from her
mind.
Regarding her briefly, Benjamin then bent over to wash his own hands.
“Are you still hurting?”
“Not anymore!”
Arissa was a little miffed at him for sending the doctor over to check on her at home.
“Why kick up such a fuss and call the doctor in over such a minor issue?”
Her murmuring caused Benjamin to furrow his brows, and he raised a hand to pinch her
cheeks.
“Wouldn’t hurt to err on the side of caution!”
Swatting away his hand, Arissa then wiped the water from her face.

Benjamin’s gaze was unfathomable.
“I’ll be more careful next time!”
Arissa started to blush again.
Who said that he abstains from women? This man is practically a lecher.
Benjamin stopped teasing her and ruffled her hair instead. “Get washed up. We have to go
downstairs for lunch.”
Arissa watched the man walk out. She then hurried to wash her face and also relieve herself
before exiting.
“Let’s go.”
Benjamin extended a hand to motion for her to go over.
“Let me get changed first!”
Arissa turned the other way to head toward the wardrobe.
Benjamin stuck both hands in his pocket. “There’s no need for that since we’re not headed
out. You are going to come straight back up to rest after the meal!”
“But I want to visit Grandaunt at the hospital!”
Having slept through the entire morning, Arissa did not want to be reduced to a sloth.
If they were to continue staying in bed, she reckoned that others would likely catch on to
what they were doing last night.
“Shaun is over there taking care of Grandaunt, so there’s nothing for you to be concerned
about!”
Benjamin had followed her over and was now leaning against the door, his gaze fixated
upon her.
Retrieving a set of athleisure wear, Arissa then turned to give him a heads-up, “I’m going to
get changed!”
The corner of Benjamin’s lips curled up as though he had something to say, but Arissa
hastily raised a hand to stop him. “Not another word from you. Scoot!”
