Chapter 839 A Successful Surgery
Benjamin sure knows how to love his wife! Darius and William chuckled silently when they saw the interaction between Benjamin and Arissa. Arissa was thrilled. “Should I just accept them?”
“Yes!” When Benjamin saw her lovely eyes, he almost couldn’t resist the urge to kiss her. He would’ve done so if Darius wasn’t there.
Arissa lowered her head to look at the bank cards and beamed. At that point, she was in seventh heaven.
Benjamin’s gaze was tender as he tousled her hair and urged, “Keep them safe, okay? Don’t lose them!”
“Okay!” Arissa quickly opened her purse and kept the bank cards in a secret compartment.
After that, she wrapped her arms around the gift and sat with the others to wait for Mary’s surgery to conclude.
Mary’s surgery was a success, and it only took a little over an hour. However, she was still asleep because of the anesthesia.
With the surgery done and dusted, everyone went back to the ward. Shaun settled Mary down and said to the others, “Don’t worry, okay? Mdm. Mary’s surgery was a success. With further treatments, she’ll fully recover fairly quickly.”
“Does this mean Grandaunt will never have back pain again?” Arissa wanted to be sure.
Mary had been suffering from kidney stones for a long time, and she had been enduring the pain.
“Monitor her diet. With regular checkups, she should be fine!” Shaun uttered.
Arissa heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that.
“Thank you, everyone!” Arissa thanked all the medical staff.
“It’s our pleasure!” the medical staff replied respectfully. They noticed how Benjamin had been following her around to visit Mary. Hence, they all knew she was most probably going to be their boss’ wife in the future.
“Shaun, bring everyone with you and take a break,” Benjamin instructed.
“Sure!” Shaun felt relieved as well. Finally, Mdm. Mary’s surgery is done. The treatments after this will be fairly straightforward.
“Mdm. Mary’s IV drip isn’t finished yet, so I don’t think she’s going to wake up anytime soon. She might wake up at noon at the soonest. Otherwise, she’ll be under till the afternoon. You guys should head home and rest, too. The medical staff will take care of her here,” Shaun urged.
“Okay, Mr. Bailey. Go on and rest, okay? Don’t mind us,” Arissa responded with a grateful smile.
Shaun said bye to them before bringing the medical staff out of the ward.
The medical staff bade Benjamin, Darius, and Arissa farewell before going off.
The ward fell silent right away. Arissa then cautiously tucked Mary in.
Benjamin glanced at Darius and William and said, “You guys can go home now. I’ll stay here with her.”
Darius gazed at his son and bobbed his head. “Take good care of Mdm. Mary!”
Darius then said bye to Arissa before leaving the ward with William.
Within an hour after they left, a housekeeper sent by Darius arrived in the ward to look after Mary.
“You should take a rest too! Grandaunt isn’t going to wake up anytime soon.” Benjamin poured Arissa a glass of water and asked her to sit next to him.
Arissa checked the IV drip before walking toward him.
She took the glass of water from him, took a few sips, and said, “Since Grandaunt is done with her surgery, you should head back to the office if you’re busy.”
Benjamin took the glass of water from her and finished the water by drinking from the same spot where she drank earlier.
Arissa noticed it and blushed.
“I’ll go over in the afternoon!” Benjamin put the glass aside and served her some fruits.
After that, he took his tablet and started working again.
Arissa’s lips curved as she was watching him.
As the warm sunlight shone through the window and over them, the sight was rather heartwarming.
When the bodyguard guarding the ward’s entrance saw that, he was mesmerized. He then secretly took a few photos of them and circulated them around.
Ethen saw it and forwarded it to Benjamin with the caption saying: Congratulations on your marriage, Mr. Graham!
Benjamin received a notification on his phone, and he tapped on it.
That was when he saw the photo of Arissa and him that was taken from behind. How beautiful!
With a smile on his face, he replied: You’ll receive an extra month’s bonus!
Ethen jumped and cheered in the office when he received the reply. The vice president who was there to discuss work with Ethen thought the latter had gone crazy. “Are you all right?”
“I’m fine!” Ethen laughed.
