Chapter 18 Zachary Hacked The Computer

“Mommy, I want to watch you cook!” Gavin said softly, looking at her in eager anticipation.

Arissa smiled at him in return and said with a gentle voice, “Sure. Sit down aside and don’t stick close to me. Watch out for any oil splatters.”

“Okay!” Gavin was over the moon. He pulled a chair over and sat down obediently.

“Why did you suddenly want to watch me cook?” Arissa asked.

“I want to accompany Mommy!” Gavin replied while his eyes were glued onto her.

Arissa was moved by his reply and smiled brightly.

Gavin did not get to watch for long before Oliver called him, “Jasper, are you trying to slack off? You said that you would sweep the floor! Come out here and start sweeping!”

Gavin was startled. Oops, I forgot about that.

“Mommy, I’m leaving for a moment!” Gavin uttered. Arissa turned around and acknowledged him with a smile.

Gavin ran out and hurriedly started to sweep the floor. On the other hand, Oliver washed the mop and mopped the floor. Meanwhile, Zachary tidied the rooms along with Jesse.

The four children worked together and busied themselves with chores. Arissa was pleased to see them so obedient at such a young age. Without their help to do some of the chores, she would have been overwhelmed.

Half an hour later, the four children lounged on the sofa watching animations. Oliver was browsing through the many channels available.

Suddenly, a news title caught Jesse’s attention. The child tugged Oliver’s shirt with excitement upon seeing someone that had a similar appearance to them. “Go back to the previous channel!”

Oliver changed back the channel, but it was too late. Jesse was upset. “Why is it gone?”

“What’s the matter, Jesse?” Zachary turned his head and asked.
