Chapter 1078 You Really Are His Son

They left the hospital together. However, instead of going home, Benjamin brought Arissa to his own hospital.

Arissa saw the familiar entrance and asked, "Aren't we going home? Are we here to see Dad?"

Darius had not been discharged yet, so she assumed that Benjamin had brought her here to visit him.

"You still have to stay in the hospital for some time before you can go home."

Benjamin took her in his arms and pulled a blanket over her.

Shocked, Arissa asked, "I still have to stay at the hospital? Didn't the doctor say I can go home already?"

The man caressed her head. "Let's have you stay for a few more days. I'll be more at ease if you're at the hospital." Arissa couldn't bring herself to say she wanted to go home and could only nod when she saw how worried he was.

"All right, then. But wouldn't Dad and the others find out if I stayed here?"

Dad would be worried if he knew. I could have stayed at the previous hospital if Benjamin had told me earlier. That place was quite good.

"It doesn't matter. Dad's already recovered a lot. If you're worried that they will find out, we'll just be more careful so they won't find out."

Shaun and a group of doctors in the hospital already knew that Benjamin would be transferring Arissa over to their hospital and had been waiting at the entrance.

They quickly rushed forward to help when they got out of the car.

"Mr. Graham, is Mrs. Graham doing better?"

"I'm a lot better now." Seeing how everyone was worried for her, she reproved, "It's all because he doesn't trust me to be at home. That's why he wants me to stay here for a few more days." Benjamin looked at her in silence.

"That's because Benjamin is worried for you, Arissa! Come on, let's go in," Shaun said, smiling.

Benjamin adjusted the blanket on Arissa before pushing her into the hospital. As he did so, he instructed the group, "Make sure not to tell Dad and Grandaunt about Arissa's stay here for now." "Yes, Mr. Graham!" they answered.

Shaun had already made all the arrangements beforehand. He brought them straight to the ward, which was one floor above Darius'.

He also told the doctors to check up on Arissa again. Once they were sure she was okay, he reminded her to rest and left the ward, not wanting to disturb her further.

Benjamin tucked her in and held her hand as he sat by the bed.

"Get some sleep."

Getting discharged from the previous hospital and settling down here was troublesome. He was worried the whole process had tired her out.

"I'm not tired," Arissa assured as she held his hand. She kept her gaze on him and continued, "Should we... go see Dad?"

We're already here anyway. I haven't visited in a few days, too. I wonder how Dad and Grandaunt are doing.

Even though the doctor had already reported to them, Arissa was still worried since she hadn't had the chance to take a look at them herself. Benjamin felt helpless. "Just rest. There's no need to worry about Dad. I'll go with you to visit him once you've gotten some rest, okay?" Arissa pursed her lips in response.

Benjamin got up and poured her a glass of water. He then sat back down and fed her.

"Why don't you go see him, then?" Arissa suggested.

"What should I say when Dad asks about you when I visit him? Are you telling me to lie?"

Arissa was left speechless.

"You really are his son!"

Benjamin tapped her nose and said with a smile, "Dad would want to see you more. Take care of yourself, and when you're all better, you can stay with him all day if you want." Arissa couldn't bring herself to believe him. Even if she had recovered, the man would never let her stay in the hospital any longer.

"I wonder how Mr. Patterson is doing."

With a raised brow, Benjamin replied, "Can't you just rest without worrying about everything?"

Arissa giggled when she saw the resigned look on his face.

"I just want to know the results sooner. Don't you want to know, too?"

"I'll call Ethen now."

Benjamin shot her a glance. He wasn't sure if Ethen would answer his phone
