Chapter 465 Not Painful âHey!â Pissed at his ignorance, Arissa glowered at Benjamin.
âKeep it down!â
Benjamin tilted his head slightly and speared her with a sharp gaze.
The corner of Arissaâs lips twitched again. âBenjamin, youâre restricting my freedom right now.â
Yet, Benjamin continued to play deaf and focused on his work.
Running out of options, Arissa plopped onto the bed, fuming.
Suddenly, a thought flashed across her mind. Weirdly, the kids havenât called me.
Checking her call history, she noticed a missed call from Gavin earlier when she got in trouble in the morning.
She returned the call but Gavinâs phone was turned off.
Huh?
Arissa dialed Zacharyâs number next but got the same result.
Why are their phones turned off?
She immediately tried calling Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse, but their phones were turned off as well.
Arissa frowned with concern.
Just as she was about to ask Benjamin, the doctor returned, and she swallowed her burning question.
âThereâs no need for me to take this shot, right, doctor?â Arrisa tried to discuss her options again with the doctor.
âMs. York, you must take it for your health,â the doctor advised, then peered at Benjamin. âOtherwise, Mr. Graham will be worried.â
Couldnât come up with any other excuse, Arissa conceded and lay down for a shot.
Benjaminâs gaze swung to her briefly before returning to his work at hand.
âOuch!â Arissa yelped when the needle pierced through her skin.
Benjamin frowned and glared at the doctor.
âCouldnât you be gentler?â
Feeling more pressure, the doctor apologized instantly. âIâm sorry, Mr. Graham. Iâll be more careful.â
Arissa cast a side-eye at Benjamin. âWhy did you scold the doctor? I didnât even say it hurts, so why are you freaking out?â
He was sitting so still like a statue just a minute ago, and next, he opened his mouth to scold someone. Jerk!
âDidnât you yelped earlier? If it didnât hurt, then why did you do that?â
Benjamin stared at her intently.
Arissa glared at him, realizing his words carried a double meaning.
Ignoring Benjamin, she turned to the doctor and apologized, âSorry. Iâm actually fine.â
âNo problem. Mr. Graham is my superior. Heâs only asking me to be careful,â the doctor explained to her softly as he stuck the needle into Arissa.
Arissa was shocked by the doctorâs revelation. âThis is his hospital?â
Mr. Graham nodded. âMr. Graham is the largest shareholder.â
No wonder!
Arissa peered at Benjamin again.
âLeave if youâre done.â
Benjamin shot another glance at the doctor.
The doctor quickly nodded and packed up his stuff, leaving the room swiftly.
Arissa asked, âBenjamin, canât you speak nicely to the doctor?â
Benjamin simply scoffed at her question.
âIs your head filled with water?â
Arissa was stunned for a moment before realizing he was calling her dumb.
She felt anger burning inside her but she couldnât do anything about it. So she just pulled the blanket over her head and slept.
She thought she couldnât sleep from the burning rage but was knocked out just a few seconds later.
Benjamin continued to work for a while and saw her with a blanket over her head. When he approached, he realized she had fallen asleep.
He bent down to pull the blanket from her head and pushed the hair away from her face.
Then, he stared at her face for a while before he adjusted the drip and returned to the couch, resuming his work.
Meanwhile, Jack had arrived at the hospital in Northstream and found Ethen. When he spotted a boy standing beside Ethen, he thought the boy was one of the kids.
âOh, youâre here too. Ethen, have you really found Tim? Where is he?â
Ethen didnât want to answer Jack for the dumb question that came out of his mouth.
Tim looked up at Jack. I think heâs asking about me.
âCome on, say something. Why arenât you telling me anything? Where is Tim? Bring me to him quickly.â
Jack urged Ethen hurriedly.
Ethen rolled his eyes at Jack, then glanced at Tim, who was standing right beside him. âHeâs right here. Are you blind?â
Jack rebuked, âYou donât have to scold me. Are you looking for a fight, Ethen?â
