Chapter 288 Came Home To Visit You
Gavin entered the study and hesitated. After that, he walked to Benjamin’s side.
Sensing that someone had come in, Benjamin lifted his head only to see Gavin.
“You’re back?”
His gaze then fell on the other four kids standing at the door.
“Well? Come on in.”
Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse stepped toward them slowly upon hearing that.
“Hello, Mr. Graham!”
Benjamin was rendered speechless by that greeting.
Gavin scanned Benjamin from top to bottom but did not notice any peculiarity on the latter.
“We heard that you’re sick.”
“Benjamin was stunned momentarily before he reached out to stroke Gavin’s head.
“I’m fine.”
“It’s not like I care if you’re fine or not.” Gavin snorted.
“Yes, I know,” Benjamin responded.
Gavin pursed his lips. “Anyway, you look fine to me!”
Benjamin glanced at the boy. “Do you want me not to be fine?”
Gavin bit his lip tightly.
A moment later, Benjamin shifted his gaze toward the other four kids. “Come over to Daddy’s side.”
Even though he was the one who said that he did not want to pick them up earlier, he was still happy to see them.
“Did you get sick because of Mommy?” Zachary asked after he brought his other siblings and approached Benjamin.
Mr. Watts said that Benjamin had an anaphylactic shock. But there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with him. Did he recover so fast?
“Who told you that?”
Benjamin furrowed his brows.
However, deep down, he was secretly elated that the kids came back to visit him.
“Mr. Watts.”
“What a shame. Mommy is good in cooking that.”
Zachary was somehow delighted. “Well, since Mr. Graham is fine, let’s go find Mommy now!”
He waved his hand, and right away, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse followed him.
Gavin wanted to go too, but Benjamin grabbed his sleeve.
He then turned toward the other four kids and uttered, “Your mommy’s resting. Please don’t wake her.”
The four kids turned around. “Got it!”
Gavin struggled while growling, “Let go of me!”
Benjamin scooped Gavin up and placed the boy on his thigh.
They looked into each others’ eyes.
“Are you still mad at me?”
Benjamin’s tone was gentle as his heart ached while staring at the stubborn kid before him.
“Hmph!” Gavin evaded his gaze.
Benjamin patted his head fondly while uttering in a soft tone, “You’re the big brother now. So please set a good example. You don’t want to become a joke to your siblings now, do you?”
