Chapter 330 Benjamin Watches Her Fume

“I know. I’m just thirsty. Can’t I drink some first?”

Arissa shot Benjamin an exasperated glare before holding the ice water in her mouth.

By doing so, her pain was relieved significantly.

Knitting his brows, Benjamin admonished her, “Why didn’t you look before you drink? Do you want to

have your tongue removed from burning it?”

Even though she was frustrated, Arissa couldn’t rebut him with her mouth still full.

Despite her defiance, Benjamin added, “Get a few more refills and hold the water in your mouth for

thirty minutes.”

After that, he gave Shaun a call, instructing him to come to the office at once.

“Bring some medication for a scalded tongue with you.”

Looking at Benjamin’s tall silhouette from the corner of her eyes, Arissa felt a warm feeling surging

within her.

The moment he turned around, she looked away swiftly.

Benjamin stared intently at her.

“Does it still hurt?”

After giving him the side-eye, Arissa swished the water in her mouth without responding.

When Benjamin saw how she was puffing her cheeks, he was inexplicably tickled by it.

He cleared his throat and reminded gently, “Next time, be more careful when you drink. Anyway, just

wait for a little while, Shaun will be here soon.”

Under Benjamin’s concerned gaze, Arissa pursed her lips before grunting in acknowledgment.

After giving her a pat on the head, Benjamin returned to his work.

In response to his touch, Arissa’s heart skipped a beat.

After spitting out the water that had warmed in her mouth, she drank another mouthful and held it there.

Just then, her phone started to ring.

It was the children calling.

Caught by surprise, she wondered if they knew that she was hurt.

She decided to end the call and send them a message instead: I’m not free now. I’ll call you back in a

while.

Zachary: Mommy, Grandpa is taking us out to play.

Arissa felt envious, as she too wanted to join them.

However, when she saw the files piled on her table, she put her phone down in resignation before

diving back into work.

Twenty minutes later, Shaun arrived, panting heavily. “Who scalded their tongue?”

Shaun was with Darius and the children while they were heading for a day out.

Halfway along the journey, he hurried over after being summoned by Benjamin.

When Benjamin saw how breathless Shaun was, he frowned at him before lifting Arissa’s chin.

“She scalded herself. I need you to check on her right away.”

When Shaun realized that Arissa was working in Benjamin’s office, his eyes sparkled in surprise.

Oh my! Since Benjamin has allowed her to work inside here, their relationship must be progressing

rapidly.

After putting his medical bag on Arissa’s table, he asked with a smile, “How did you end up burning

yourself?”

Arissa spat the ice water out of her mouth.

“I burned myself while drinking coffee.”

Shaun’s lips twitched. Isn’t this a common occurrence? Why did Benjamin call me over as if it was a

serious emergency?

Arissa rolled her tongue in her mouth, noticing that it was no longer as painful as before. Faced with

Shaun’s dumbfounded expression, she was slightly embarrassed.

“Check her quickly. What are you spacing out for?”

Benjamin stormed over and gave Shaun an impatient look.

Having adjusted his glasses, Shaun instructed Arissa, “Stick out your tongue for me to see.”

After looking at them, Arissa felt too shy to comply.

“Well? What are you hesitating for?” Benjamin lifted his brow in a domineering fashion.

Arissa rolled her eyes at him. “I don’t think it’s that serious.”

“Are you the doctor or is he?” Benjamin snapped.

After giving him a scowl, Arissa opened her mouth, stuck her tongue out, and retracted it at once.

“There. Is it all right?” she asked Shaun.

Shaun was tickled by it. “It’s fine. Doesn’t look serious to me.”

Benjamin narrowed his gaze. “She almost drank the entire cup just now. Look, it’s still red. How can

you say that it isn’t serious?”

Shaun was amused by how anxious Benjamin was.

“She has already said that it isn’t serious, so why must you insist on it being so? Are you the doctor

now or am I?”
