You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 417

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.

“Is Gavin really okay?” Zachary asked.

Benjamin cast a quick glance at Gavin, who was lying on the bed, before nodding at them. “Yeah, he’ll be fine. Mr. Bailey is an amazing doctor, after all.”

Shaun was nearly touched to tears when he heard Benjamin’s compliment, but he was so busy treating Gavin that he didn’t have time for such emotions.

Darius sat down beside Gavin and slowly loosened up his fingers that were tightly curled.

“We were scared witless when Gavin fainted all of a sudden, Mr. Graham!” Jasper sobbed.

Benjamin pulled him into his arms and wiped his tears dry before giving the other kids a hug.

“Don’t be scared. Everything will be all right.”

Zachary slowly calmed down when he saw that the adults were all present, especially with one of them being a doctor.

“Kids, did any of you say anything to Gavin before he fainted?” Benjamin asked.

Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper fell silent due to their guilty conscience.

“Did you guys say something you shouldn’t have?” Jesse asked while glaring at them.

Would it be too much if we tell Daddy that he won’t 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. ”W-We were talking about where the evil woman took Gavin… Maybe it reminded him of some unpleasant memories, so he couldn’t stand it and fainted…”

As Zachary really did feel guilty, his act looked so convincing that Benjamin suspected nothing at all.

“Don’t worry. Gavin will be fine,” he said reassuringly while patting Zachary on the head.

“When will Gavin wake up?” Jesse asked with tears in her eyes.

“Gavin is asleep after receiving an injection, so he won’t be waking up so soon,” Benjamin comforted her before turning toward Shaun to ask, “Is Gavin all right?”
