Chapter 806 Remember Your Meds
Benjamin raised a brow before he quietly backed away. Arissa shut the door to get changed
quickly before she went out. Seated on the couch with his legs crossed in a leisurely
manner, Benjamin cut an unbelievably dashing figure.
The moment she stepped out, his eyes locked upon her form. Arissa swiftly met his gaze.
“I’m ready!”
Benjamin got up to approach and swept her into his embrace with one hand. As she was
pressed up against his body, Arissa’s heart rate picked up as she took in that familiar scent
from the man’s body. “What are you doing?”
Benjamin cupped her face and gently rubbed her cheeks with his thumbs in earnest,
causing Arissa’s heart to pound against her ribcage. “I’ll apply the cream for you after
lunch!”
Hearing the man’s words made her cheeks flush red. “Haven’t I already done just that?”
An amused glint entered his eyes as he caressed her lips. “I was referring to up here!” With
her face feeling as hot as the sun, Arissa pushed him away and turned to walk toward the

outside.
Being in a good mood, he caught up with her and held her hand while they made their way
downstairs. Edwin smiled broadly when he saw them descend the steps, hands intertwined.
“Lunch is ready, Mr. and Mrs. Graham.” “Good. You may start serving it!”
Benjamin nodded and led Arissa over while the smiling Edwin hurried along to make
preparations. Arissa stared at the man beside her. “How long have you been back?”
“Only for a while before you woke up.”
Benjamin glanced over at her.
“Oh!”
Not wanting to meet his gaze, Arissa blinked and looked elsewhere.
Benjamin’s brows quirked up. He led her to the dining room and pulled out her chair for her
before he sat himself down at the head of the table.
Edwin proceeded to serve them some soup.
“Do help yourself to more, Mrs. Graham!”
“I will. Thank you, Edwin!” Arissa replied warmly.
Benjamin turned to speak to Edwin. “Is her medication ready?”
“Yes, it is.”
Edwin nodded in affirmation, and after acknowledging him, Benjamin waved him away.
Arissa looked toward Benjamin quizzically. “My medication?”
“Yeah.” Benjamin took one look at her. “Remember to take it after the meal.”
Arissa regarded Benjamin gratefully. “Dr. Leal told me that it was her you went to for the
prescription. For a moment, I almost thought that you had gotten it from Dr. Bailey, so
thank you!”
“Big mouth!” Benjamin quietly snorted at Liane in castigation.
“Initially, I did go to Shaun, but later I referred to Dr. Leal because she was more
experienced in gynecology.”
Arissa nodded, then asked, “How long more do I have to continue drinking it?”
Benjamin reminded her in earnest after he observed how much she dreaded taking
medication. “You’ll have to keep up the regimen until your body recovers and is healthy
again.”
All of a sudden, Arissa no longer found the food to be all that appealing.
“Well, eat up!” urged Benjamin while he kept a watchful eye on her.
Arissa pursed her lips. “The thought of being on medication kind of made me lose my
appetite!”
That elicited a frown from Benjamin. “How would you know whether the soup is tasty or not

Chuckling, she then lowered her head to sample the soup.
“Mmm. Edwin’s cooking is the best!”
I’ll surely end up getting fat before too long if this were to keep up.
As Benjamin watched her, he, too, started to tuck in.
He saw to it that she had two servings of soup and heaped vegetables on her plate during
the course of the meal.
“Are the kids in school already?”
Benjamin nodded. “Yes. I had to head into the office, so I got Edwin to drive them there this
morning.”
Arissa focused her attention on Benjamin. “At what time did you go to the office?”
“Around six.”
Arissa was astonished because that meant that he could not have gotten much sleep in
between.
Stealing a glance at the man, she was rather impressed by how alert and energetic he still
looked.
That made her feel a little envious.
How could men and women be so different?
While her waist and back remained sore, he appeared to be alert and bursting with energy.
“What are you looking at me for? Get back to eating!”
Benjamin glared at her.
