The More the Merrier novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418 Were You Home This Whole Time

Arissa ignored Benjamin and made her way over to the bed. “I’m staying here with Gavin!”

It pained her deeply to see her son lying there hooked up to an IV drip.

“You’ve only just woken up, so your body is still weak at the moment. How about you lie down in the same bed with him?” Benjamin advised her.

Realizing that everyone was looking at her worriedly, Arissa nodded and climbed into bed with Gavin.

“Get some rest, you two. Just let me know if anything happens,” Shaun instructed as he adjusted the drip rate of the IV drip before packing his kit and leaving the room.

Darius then brought the four kids outside so as to not disturb Arissa and Gavin.

“Come on, let’s go play downstairs.”

“Okay, Grandpa.”

Zachary glanced at Arissa to make sure she was feeling better before leaving with Darius.

Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse soon followed along.

Just like that, the room fell silent in an instant.

Noticing how Arissa was looking worriedly at Gavin, Benjamin poured her a glass of water.

“Here, have some water,” he said while handing her the glass.

“How long has Gavin been like this?” Arissa asked as she took the glass over from him.

“Just a moment ago. He has already been given an injection, so he’s fine now,” Benjamin replied.

Arissa nodded and downed the glass of water in one go.

“Do you want me to pour you another glass?” Benjamin asked.

Arissa shook her head. “No, one glass is enough.”

Noticing that Gavin still had a tight frown on his forehead, she reached out to loosen up his furrowed brows and gave him a kiss on the forehead.

“Sweetheart, I’ll stay right by your side from now on, so no one will bully you ever again!” She then turned toward Benjamin and continued, “I’ll look after him, so you can carry on with whatever it is you were doing.”

“All right.”

Benjamin headed over to the master bedroom after a brief pause.

Has Benjamin been home the whole time?
