Chapter 492 Someone Is Worried About Arissa
Arissa shook her head smilingly and shooed the children away so that Mary wouldn’t feel awkward.
“No, it’s fine. Go and sit at the side. You’ll make Mdm. Mary feel embarrassed by looking on over here.”
When Mary heard that, she burst intoughter. “See? I told you to let me do it myself.”
“You’re still weak, so it’s better for me to do it. Here, turn over so that I can wipe your back.”
Arissa used to be a volunteer and would go to a retirement home to take care of the elderly. For that
reason, she was very adept at taking care of Mary.
Clocking her extreme patience without any hint of impatience, Mary smiled in relief.
“Thank you for going to such trouble for me, Issa!”
“Don’t say such things, Mdm. Mary. Or do you not like having me as a rtive?” Arissa teased.
“Of course not! I love having you as my rtive! You’re so kindhearted!”
Mary was moved, and her eyes turned red-rimmed.
Arissa changed a basin of water and continued wiping Mary down. She showed no sign of disdain;
instead, she was exceedingly meticulous, her movements gentle.
“If we’re speaking of kindheartedness, you’re far above me, Mdm. Mary. If it weren’t for you taking Tim
home back then, he wouldn’t have survived to this day. Thank you! It must have been difficult for you
throughout the years.”
Sheer gratefulness flooded her as she gazed at the white-haireddy.
She was already so old then, yet she still took a child back to raise. It must have been difficult for her!
“We didn’t find it difficult to raise Tim. Thanks to him, our days were filled with so much joy. However,
he was forced to live a hard life with us.”

Seeing that Mary felt bad for Tim, Arissaforted her, saying, “It’s a good thing for him to experience
some hardships when he’s young. Only then will he be even more mature and diligent when he grows
up. Those experiences helped to shape him.”
At that, Mary nodded with a smile.
Just then, Benjamin came in, only to see that Arissa was wiping Mary down. At once, he was caught
between a rock and a hard ce.
When Arissa saw him, she waved a dismissive hand. “Go out first.”
Benjamin closed the door and beckoned Ethen over. “Did you not look for a caregiver?”
“I did, but I haven’t found a suitable one,” Ethen reported honestly.
Benjamin frowned at his answer. “Hurry up and find someone. She can’t possibly take care of Mary
alone.”
Heh! Someone is worried about Arissa!
Ethen stole a peek at Benjamin and snickered.
In turn, Benjamin shot him a re. “Hurry up and go!”
“Understood!”
Ethen hastily went to look for a caregiver, and he even increased the pay.
A momentter, Benjamin recalled that the children were all in the room, and his brows creased deeply.
He phoned Gavin and ordered them toe out.
Good Lord! That woman is another one! She’s wiping Mary down, yet she allowed the kids to be there!
“Why did you call us out?”
Gavin stood in front of Benjamin.
Sweeping his gaze over the five siblings, Benjamin instructed, “In the future, all of you have toe
out when Mary is getting a wipe. Do you understand me?”
The five children wore innocent expressions on their faces. “We didn’t peek!”
“Even so, you’ve got to leave the room!” Benjamin insisted.
No matter how old Mary is, she’s still a woman, so she’ll still feel embarrassed. Hence, it’s not
appropriate for them to be present.
Zachary curled his lips and retorted, “Mommy didn’t ask us to leave!”
“Your mommy is heedless!”
Eyeing him, Benjamin added, “Do you follow your mommy’s orders to the letter?”
“Of course!” Zachary puffed his chest out proudly.
Benjamin’s lips pressed into a thin line. He took them over to the bench at the side and sat down.
“Where’s Tim?”
“He has gone to take a shower!” Gavin answered.
Benjamin nodded in acknowledgment. “Later, all of you go back to the hotel with your mommy to get
some rest. I’ll stay here.”
“But Mommy just told Mdm. Mary that she’s going to stay here overnight!” Gavin interjected.
“I’ll talk to her in a while.”
Honestly speaking, Benjamin didn’t want Arissa to stay. She had just recovered, so her body might not
be able to take it if she were to stay up all night to take care of Mary.
When Arissa had finished wiping Mary, Tim had also finished showering and came out. Thus, she
carried the dirty water over to get rid of it.
The instant she saw that her son had washed the clothes he was wearing, she was stunned for a
moment. At the same time, she felt sorry to see him so independent at such a young age.
True enough, children raised in destitution are mature beyond their age!
