The More the Merrier novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290 Daddy Never Lies

The four of them then knelt down beside Arissa and stared at her face as she slept.

It had been almost two days since they last saw their mommy, so simply looking at her without saying anything was enough to fill their hearts with joy.

Gavin, who was passing by the room, came over and joined them beside the bed when he saw them.

The four of them exchanged glances with Gavin, who flashed them a smile as he whispered, “Let’s all go outside so we don’t wake Mommy up, okay?”

As they had all taken a nap earlier in the afternoon, they weren’t feeling sleepy at all.

Zachary nodded and motioned for the rest of them to leave the room.

The five of them then crept out of the room, closed the door, and headed toward their bedroom.

“All right, let’s unpack our stuff!” Gavin said as he placed his bag down, prompting the other four to start unpacking their stuff as well.

“Gavin, what did Mr. Graham tell you just now?” Jasper asked curiously.

“He explained why he saved Danna,” Gavin replied.

Zachary glanced at Gavin. “What did he say?”

Gavin then told them all about his conversation with Benjamin earlier.

Oliver pouted as he found Benjamin’s explanation to be rather reasonable.

“But why was he able to rush over there so quickly?”

Gavin pursed his lips. “Danna must’ve given him a call.”

Jasper stroked his chin as he gave it some thought. “That means he still cares about her, then. All that stuff about saving her life because he knows her is probably nonsense. Shouldn’t he let someone else do the saving? Why did he have to go charging in all by himself?”

“He has bodyguards with him, so why not let them save her instead? Doesn’t he know that people are going to get the wrong idea if he saves her? It’s obvious that he still cares about her!”

Zachary didn’t like how Benjamin handled the situation.

Gavin tried to defend Benjamin by saying, “Maybe it’s just a habit of his.”

Zachary shot him a glance as he sat down on the bed. “Gavin, you said they weren’t on good terms throughout the past five years. Even if he did like Danna five years ago, those habits of his should have changed by now, right?”
