The More the Merrier novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 You Will Regret This

Gavin’s face was red with anger as he narrated the events to her.

“Mommy, he asked me to swap places with Zachary at night. He wanted to bring Zachary and the rest back to the Graham family, so he asked me to not tell you the truth. Mommy, I will never help him again! I hate him!”

Arissa was taken aback by his outburst. She hugged him and said, “Sweetheart, are you all right?”

“He didn’t want me! I hate him!”

This child had feelings for Benjamin. Not so long ago, he was defending his actions. When did he develop such hatred for Benjamin?

Arissa looked at Zachary. The little boy avoided her eye contact and remained silent.

She asked gently, “Tell Mommy what happened. Why do you hate Daddy?”

“Mommy, he only cares about that woman! He doesn’t even care about me!” Gavin bawled loudly in her arms.

Arissa was stunned.

My child is hurt by Benjamin’s treatment of Danna?

“What did you see?” Arissa rubbed circles on his back, soothing the crying child.

“Once he heard that Danna was in trouble, he ran right out! He cares so much about that evil woman. I hate him! I don’t want him anymore. I just want to be with you, Mommy!”

Gavin tightened his hug as he spoke.

At this point, Arissa’s eyes were puffy with tears. “There, there. Don’t cry anymore. Stay with Mommy. I will always be with you!”

If Benjamin wants to be with Danna, then let them be together! I can always raise my kids by myself.

Arissa was determined not to let Benjamin hurt her kids anymore.

However, she knew that the most important thing for them then was to find a place to hide. Otherwise, with Benjamin’s capabilities, they would be defeated.

“Mommy, let’s leave this place, okay?” Gavin’s tear-stricken face gazed up at her pitifully.

Arissa could not bring herself to reject his request. Hence, she nodded and said, “Yes, let’s all leave.”

She wiped the tears off Gavin’s face before asking Bradley to bring them to Lightspring.

Gavin sniffled. Then, a determined gaze flashed across his eyes.

Hmph! Benjamin, you will regret this! We don’t need you anymore.

At the same time, Benjamin frowned as he stared at his declined phone call.

He tried once more, but the phone was turned off.
