Chapter 670 Bradley Deliberately Hung Up On Arissa Downstairs, Benjamin, Kingsley, and Shaun were drinking coffee. Meanwhile, Arissa was chatting with Mary. Noticing that the latter seemed a bit tired, she suggested, âGrandaunt, why donât you take a bath and rest? You still have to go to the hospital early morning tomorrow.â
âUh...â Mary hesitated for a moment, finding it rather inappropriate to go and rest when everyone was gathered there. âI can stay and sit for a while longer.â
Aware of her concern, Arissa coaxed smilingly, âLet them sit here by themselves. Iâll take you back to your room. Itâll be late by the time you finish bathing.â
âMdm. Mary, you should really rest earlier. You have to go to the hospital early tomorrow morning. When youâre done bathing, Iâll check you over again,â Shaun seconded.
Nodding, Mary finally allowed Arissa to help her up and escort her back to her room.
Arissa helped to draw her a bath before preparing a set of clothes for her.
âIssa, go out and sit with them. I can manage by myself.â
In other words, Mary was telling her that she didnât need her to wait on her there.
In response, Arissa chuckled. âItâs okay. The men are all drinking coffee, so Iâd be the odd one out. Hurry up and take a bath, Grandaunt. Iâll put the towel here, and this is the shower gel.â
âGot it!â Mary relented.
Only then did Arissa shut the door and left the bathroom.
As she abruptly thought of something, she called out toward the bathroom, âGrandaunt, after you change out of the clothes, just leave them be. Donât wash them.â
âOkay,â Mary answered.
Arissa walked away and started straightening the room.
She didnât take out the luggage to be brought to the hospital but sorted out the clothes at home instead.
Then, she made the bed and tidied the room.
After doing all that, she waited in the room for Mary to finish bathing.
Recalling that she hadnât spoken to Bradley, she swiftly rang him up.
A moment later, Bradleyâs groggy voice drifted into her ears. âBoss!â
Arissa was stunned for a moment. âWere you sleeping?â
Chuckling sheepishly, Bradley said, âI didnât go to bed until a little over five in the afternoon.â
Arissa, likewise, chortled. She glanced at the bathroom before strolling over to the balcony.
In a low voice, she asked, âHave you found out anything?â
âWhat? What did you just say, Boss?â
Bradleyâs volume went up a notch.
Arissa repeated herself, upon which Bradleyâs voice again rang out from the other end of the phone.
âBoss? Why canât I hear her anymore? What crappy signal!â
In no time, Bradley hung up the phone.
Hearing the disconnect tone from her phone, Arissa frowned deeply.
Was the signal really bad, or was it deliberate on his part?
Just when she was planning to call him back, she heard the bathroom door opening. She quickly put her phone away and hurried over.
âWhere should I hang my clothes, Issa?â
Mary came out with a basin in hand.
Hastily taking it from her, Arissa chided with a smile, âDidnât I tell you not to wash your clothes, Grandaunt? Youâre not in perfect health now. Iâll do it instead. Besides, there are housekeepers here. Just have them do the laundry.â

At that, Arissa chuckled. âSit down. Iâll go and hang the clothes.â
Mary nodded in agreement. âOkay!â
Upon seeing that the bed was already made, she was incredibly moved.
Subsequently, she watched as Arissa went to the balcony to hang the clothes.
âGrandaunt, Iâve packed the clothes to be worn at home. The clothes in the bag are for you to bring to the hospital. Tomorrow, we can bring the bag without taking anything out.â
âSure!â Mary replied with a beam.
Poking her head in, Arissa added, âGranduncleâs picture is also in the bag. I havenât taken it out yet.â
âJust leave it and bring it to the hospital as well!â Mary wanted to take the picture with her.
Hearing that, Arissa giggled. âI just knew that youâd want to bring it along!â
Mary walked over and inquired gently, âIssa, were you all living here also previously?â
âYup! Why?â Arissa hung up all the clothes to dry.
Nodding in acknowledgment, Mary hesitated for a while before asking, âSo what exactly is your relationship with Benjamin?â
