Amidst Benjamin's deep breathing in his sleep, sleepiness
gradually descended upon Arissa.
Before she knew it, she, too, was in dreamland.
‘When she woke up the next day and didn't see Benjamin, she
had a sudden realization. She grabbed the alarm clock beside
her and saw that it was nine o'clock.
“Argh!” Arissa exclaimed as she jumped out of bed. She
hurried into the bathroom before dashing out in the blink of an
eye.
She ran down the stairs, only to be greeted by silence. It was
quiet, with nary a soul in sight.
“Grandaunt? Sweethearts?”
Have they gone to the hospital?
Hearing the sound outside, Edwin rushed out of the kitchen.
‘When he saw Arissa looking around, he informed her at once,
“Ms. York, Mr. Graham has brought everyone to the hospital.”
Arissa was annoyed. “Why didn't they wake me up?”
Why did | oversleep? How could | have not heard anything in
the morning?
She had slept through the entire night uninterrupted.
Edwin smiled. “Mr. Graham said that you were sleeping
soundly and told us not to wake you up. Ms. York, Mdm. Mary
will be staying at the hospital for a while now. You should wash
up while | reheat your breakfast.”

Arissa was embarrassed because of Edwin's nosy gaze.
“What time did they leave?”
“Alittle past six.”
That's early!
Arissa pursed her lips before heading back upstairs to brush
her teeth.
In ten minutes, she got herself dressed and came back down
with her handbag.
“Mrs. Graham, come over and have your breakfast. I'll take
you to the hospital after that.”
Edwin was waiting by the staircase with a smile.
Avrissa felt nonplussed. “Edwin, you're teasing me again by
addressing me as Mrs. Graham.”
Edwin chuckled. “William told me that you promised to register
your marriage with Mr. Graham. Are you going back on your
word?”
Avrissa cleared her throat awkwardly and murmured, “I did that
to pacify Old Mr. Graham.”
Edwin's eyes widened. He said in a serious tone, “Mrs.
Graham, Old Mr. Graham will be saddened if you change your
mind.”
Arissa's lips twitched. She went to the dining room to grab
something to eat along the way.
“Mrs. Graham, you should have your meal here at home. Mr.
Graham has instructed me to boil the medicinal soup for you.
It's ready. You can have it once you finish your breakfast.”
Arissa was stunned. "What medicine is that?”
Edwin answered, “The one you have been taking prior to this.
It's good for regulating your health.”
“Okay.”
Avrissa settled down for breakfast. She could already taste the
bitterness on her tongue.
Edwin was amused when he saw how Arissa was grimacing in
fear of the medicine.
“Mrs. Graham, Mr. Graham has already
gotten Mr. Bailey to adjust the composition of the medicine. It's
not going to be bitter.”
Touched by the gesture, Arissa looked at Edwin. “It's not?”
Edwin nodded. “That's right. It's not. Mr. Bailey assured us of
it. If you still feel that it is, we'll get him to further adjust the
formula.”
Avrissa sighed in her heart as she resigned herself to drinking
the medicine.
While they were eating, Edwin's phone rang. It was Benjamin
on the line.
“Mr. Graham!”

Avrissa looked up.
“Okay. Mrs. Graham just got up and is having breakfast... All
right.”
After exchanging a few words with Benjamin, Edwin handed
the phone to Arissa. “Mrs. Graham, Mr. Graham wants to talk
to you.”
Avrissa felt simply embarrassed.
“Hello?” she answered.
“Are you having breakfast?” Benjamin's deep voice rang out
and traveled into her ears.
“Yeah.”
“Remember to take your medicine once you finish your
breakfast,” Benjamin reminded in a tone that had no room for
dissent.
“Okay.” She let out a cursory acknowledgment.
“Arissa, take your medicine!” Benjamin's voice was deeper by
afew octaves.
“I know,” she answered in resignation.
“Grandaunt has completed her checkup and has been put on a
drip. There's no need for you to hurry over. The kids are here
too. You can come by later or even in the afternoon,” Benjamin
said.
Arissa listened as she ate. “Has Grandaunt's condition
stabilized?”
