Chapter 417 No One Dared To Tell The Truth The kids were plagued by guilt and fear of being scolded, so they felt a little better when they saw Benjamin comforting them instead of scolding them.
âIs Gavin really okay?â Zachary asked.
Benjamin cast a quick glance at Gavin, who was lying on the bed, before nodding at them. âYeah, heâll be fine. Mr. Bailey is an amazing doctor, after all.â
Shaun was nearly touched to tears when he heard Benjaminâs compliment, but he was so busy treating Gavin that he didnât have time for such emotions.
Darius sat down beside Gavin and slowly loosened up his fingers that were tightly curled.
âWe were scared witless when Gavin fainted all of a sudden, Mr. Graham!â Jasper sobbed.
Benjamin pulled him into his arms and wiped his tears dry before giving the other kids a hug.
âDonât be scared. Everything will be all right.â
Zachary slowly calmed down when he saw that the adults were all present, especially with one of them being a doctor.
âKids, did any of you say anything to Gavin before he fainted?â Benjamin asked.
Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper fell silent due to their guilty conscience.
âDid you guys say something you shouldnât have?â Jesse asked while glaring at them.
Would it be too much if we tell Daddy that he wonât be able to find our missing brother anymore?
The three of them exchanged glances before Zachary, being the leader of the three, spoke up hesitantly. âW-We were talking about where the evil woman took Gavin... Maybe it reminded him of some unpleasant memories, so he couldnât stand it and fainted...â
As Zachary really did feel guilty, his act looked so convincing that Benjamin suspected nothing at all.
âDonât worry. Gavin will be fine,â he said reassuringly while patting Zachary on the head.
âWhen will Gavin wake up?â Jesse asked with tears in her eyes.
âGavin is asleep after receiving an injection, so he wonât be waking up so soon,â Benjamin comforted her before turning toward Shaun to ask, âIs Gavin all right?â
âHeâs fine. Good thing it wasnât anything serious. His body was tensed up due to extreme stress and emotions, thatâs all,â Shaun explained.
Benjamin caressed Gavinâs cheek, feeling relieved that his jaw wasnât tightly clenched anymore.
Meanwhile, Arissa woke up from her sleep all of a sudden.
Feeling an inexplicable sense of anxiety when she saw no one in the master bedroom, she quickly went out looking for her kids.
âGavin! Zachary! Oliver! Where are you, my sweethearts?â
Arissa felt relieved when she found them inside the room. However, her relief was soon replaced by panic the moment she saw Gavin lying on the bed with Shaun, Benjamin, and Darius sitting beside him.
âWhat happened to Gavin?â Arissa asked worriedly as she rushed over to the bed.
âGavin is fine. He just got a little stressed out, thatâs all,â Benjamin replied with a frown when he saw that she didnât have any shoes on.
Arissa frowned when she saw how pale Gavinâs face looked.
âDr. Bailey, is Gavin really okay?â
âHeâs fine, Mrs. Graham. Donât worry. Heâll be all right when he wakes up,â Shaun reassured her.
Benjamin pulled her aside and said, âGo put some shoes on first. The floor is really cold.â
Arissa nodded. âWhat happened to Gavin? Why was he stressed out?â
âThey say he was reminded of some unpleasant memories of the past,â Benjamin replied.
Still unconvinced, Arissa turned toward Zachary and asked, âSweetheart, what happened to Gavin?â
âWhat Daddy said is true, Mommy.â
Naturally, Zachary didnât dare to tell Arissa the truth.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 416 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You Mommy has just woken up a while ago, so she probably canât handle worrying about Gavin too much. I donât think her heart will be able to take it if I tell her that our missing brother is most likely gone forever!
âGavin is fine, so you should go put some shoes on,â Benjamin said as he helped her to her feet.
