Chapter 420 Thank Daddy
The five children held Arissa’s hands and led her to the living room. “Let’s go there and play, Mommy!”
“Sure!” Arissa nodded and went with them.
After making her sit on the couch, the children started pouring her a glass of water, bringing her snacks, and
offering her fruits.
Some of them even gave her shoulders a massage.
Arissa chuckled. “What are you guys doing?”
“You’d better eat something first, Mommy. We’re still hours away from dinner time. I don’t want you to feel dizzy,”
Zachary advised.
“He’s right, Mommy. Please eat something. You don’t want us to be worried about you now, do you?” Oliver knitted
his brows.
Arissa grinned and responded. “All right. I’ll eat something.”

Arissa took a sip and placed the glass right next to Gavin’s mouth. “Here, Gavin. Drink some warm water too.”
Gavin smiled and took a few sips.
Zachary could not believe his eyes. Did Gavin just drink directly from Mommy’s glass? Isn’t he a clean freak?
Upon noticing how shocked Zachary looked, Arissa raised her brows and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Zachary giggled cheekily and replied, “Gavin just drank from Mommy’s glass even though he’s a clean freak!”
Arissa’s mouth twitched, and she gave his son’s forehead a light flick. “You find my mouth disgusting, huh?”
“Of course not, Mommy!” Zachary immediately grabbed the glass and gulped the rest of the water down.
Gavin grinned in delight. He had no problem sharing the same glass of water with Arissa.
Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse leaped forward and tugged on Arissa’s arms. “We want to drink it too, Mommy!”
A glint flashed across her eyes. She smirked and asked, “What do you want to drink? Milk?”
The three little ones giggled.
“We don’t want milk, Mommy. We’re going to have dinner soon, after all,” Jesse said in a sweet and soft voice.
Arissa could not help but pinch her little nose.
“I didn’t get to pick you guys up after school. Please forgive me, okay?” she apologized.
“It’s all right. We don’t blame you. You didn’t pick us up because you’re sick. We understand that,” Gavin said.
“Thanks, Sweetheart.” Arissa gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
Zachary and the rest, too, ran up to her, hoping to get a kiss.
One by one, Arissa planted a kiss on their cheeks.
Benjamin was pleased to see how Arissa interacted with the children. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile.
After watching them from the corridor upstairs for a moment, he turned around and left.
Sensing someone was looking at her, Arissa lifted her head to look around, but she did not see anyone.
She froze for a moment before telling the children, “Kids, why don’t you bring some snacks to your Daddy too?”
The five children exchanged glances. None of them wanted to go up to see Benjamin.
While Gavin was still mad at Benjamin, Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper felt a pang of guilt. They were afraid that
Benjamin might ask them what they were doing in the room earlier.

“Why don’t you go instead, Mommy?” Gavin took a glance at Arissa. “When you were taking a jab, he was there
with you. I’m sure he’ll appreciate the snacks you bring for him.”
Upon hearing that, Arissa could not help but sigh. She leaned forward and gently pinched the boy’s cheek.
“Don’t you blame Daddy anymore, okay? When you were sick, your daddy was super worried about you. He even
stayed in the room to keep you company.”
Zachary and the others could attest to that.
“Yeah. Mr. Graham was so worried about Gavin when he fainted,” Jesse said.
She then turned to Gavin and said, “Mr. Graham was very, very worried about you!”
Zachary nodded in agreement, and he went on to describe how Benjamin looked at that time.
A surge of warmth filled Gavin’s heart when he heard what Benjamin did for him.
Arissa stroked his head and said, “You should go and thank Daddy.”
Gavin glanced at her and ask in a low voice, “Can you come upstairs with me, Mommy?”
Arissa grinned. “I don’t feel like moving. So why don’t you go alone? Remember to bring some snacks for your
daddy, okay?”
