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.
