Chapter 1047 Worried

The children stayed for another half an hour before Benjamin checked the time and said, “It's almost nine. Time for us to go home.”

However, the children felt as though they had only been there for a short while.

“It's still early!” Gavin argued.

“We haven't spent enough time with Mommy!” pleaded Zachary.

Oliver and Jasper nodded in unison. “We want to stay here a little longer!”

Grabbing Arissa's hand, Tim added, “Me too!”

Turning directly to her mother, Jesse cooed, “How about we stay here and keep you company, Mommy? We'll be good! I promise!”

Grinning, Arissa patted the girl's head and pinched Tim's cheek before turning to Benjamin. “Let them stay for a little longer!”

Benjamin gazed at her. “You need rest!”

“I'm fine!”

His lack of reply prompted her to turn to her children. “All of you can stay a little longer, but you must go home, Sweethearts. There isn't any place for you to sleep in the hospital. If you're all here, I'll occasionally pay attention to you. As a result, I won't be able to rest!”

The children exchanged glances before nodding. “Okay, Mommy.”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

They then fed her fruits while chatting delightfully with her.

After Benjamin made sure that the children were behaving themselves, he went outside to call Darius.

“Mr. Hinton said he's coming back, Mommy! He called us when he was on the highway,” informed Zachary.

Arissa's eyes lit up with joy. “He's back?”

“Yeah! He may even arrive here soon!” Oliver answered.

That put a smile on her face. It's good that Bradley's back. I'll ask him to keep the children company tomorrow.

“You should call him later, Mommy!”

The children continued to feed her fruit.

“How many babies are inside you, Mommy?” asked Jesse curiously.

The girl's question amused Arissa. “Do you think I got pregnant with multiple babies again?”

“Maybe you are!” Jasper narrowed his eyes as he giggled. I certainly don't mind having more siblings!

Gavin, Tim, Zachary, and Oliver laughed. They were looking forward to that possibility. “You should give birth to a few more babies, Mommy! We'll help you take care of our siblings.”

Just as Arissa was laughing, she suddenly felt discomfort in her abdomen. Expeditiously, she held her belly and stopped smiling.

When Gavin spotted her expression, he anxiously questioned, “Are you feeling unwell, Mommy?”

“Hold on, Mommy! We'll go and call for a doctor!” Zachary and the others panicked as well and were just about to run out of the room.

Arissa quickly reassured, “It's nothing serious. No need to worry about me. I just laughed a bit too hard.”

After Benjamin ended his call, entered the ward, and saw the children panicking, he frowned. “What's the matter?”

Without delay, Tim answered, “Mommy seems to be in discomfort, Mr. Graham!”

The expression on Benjamin's countenance shifted before he turned to Arissa and pressed the call button again.

Seeing that she had failed to stop them, she sighed and said, “I'm fine! Stop worrying.”

Patting her head, Benjamin asked with concern, “Where are you hurting?”

“I just laughed a little too hard earlier. I'm fine now.”

She thought her explanation would put him at ease, but it only made him worry more.

When the doctor entered the ward with a nurse, Benjamin took the children to the side, making way for the doctor to examine Arissa.

After a brief examination, the doctor replied, “Mrs. Graham is fine, Mr. Graham. Her condition has stabilized!”
