You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 441

Chapter 441 Gavin Pretends To Be Sick

“Sweethearts, are you ready? I’ll send you all to school if you are,” Darius asked dotingly.

“Issa, have a good rest at home. Let me send them to school today,” he reassured Arissa while carrying the five kids one by one from the dining chairs.

They had no choice but to make their way toward the living room with Darius. Even Edwin had dashed upstairs to bring them their bags.

“Grandpa, we don’t feel like going to school today,” the five kids stated in unison.

“How could you guys skip class? No way! You must attend school today and never neglect your studies.” Darius knitted his brows, leading them toward the car.

“Grandpa, Gavin is still not feeling well. That’s why we feel like staying at home with him today,” Zachary piped up to remind his grandfather.

Darius turned to look at Gavin, questioning him apprehensively, “Gavin, are you still feeling unwell?”

At the sight of Zachary hinting him by throwing him a glance, Gavin nodded at Darius, pretending to feel under the weather.

Darius carried him onto his lap at once, touching his forehead.

Gavin could not help feeling a rush of anxiousness. He cowered on Darius’ lap, fearing that his grandfather would find out he was lying.

Darius did not sense anything awry. In fact, he was worried sick about Gavin when he caught sight of the boy’s face, which seemed to have turned red gradually.

“Gavin, tell me where you’re feeling uncomfortable. I’ll call the doctor to come over.” Darius carried him down from the car.

“Grandpa, you don’t have to call the doctor to come over. I just have a bloated stomach and feel like vomiting.” Gavin stopped him hastily. This is bad! If he calls the doctor to come over, he’ll find out very soon that I’m pretending to be sick!

“Did you catch the flu?” Darius lowered his head and pressed it lightly against Gavin’s forehead to feel his temperature.

At the same time, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse got out of the car one by one.

Zachary raised his head and explained, “Grandpa, maybe Gavin’s not feeling well because he didn’t sleep well last night. Is it all right to let him have a rest at home today?”

He tried to talk Darius into changing his mind. Worrying about Arissa, he and his siblings were not in the mood to attend school.

After throwing Gavin a glance, Darius eventually decided not to let the kid attend school as he seemed weak as a kitten.

“If that’s the case, don’t go to school then. You kids can rest at home today,” he announced while carrying Gavin back into the house while instructing the other four kids to follow him.

Zachary and the others’ eyes lit up as they exchanged looks. The next moment, they ran into the house excitedly.
