Chapter 445 We Need To Avenge Him

The sight of Arissa lying on the bed worried the kids to no end.

“What happened?” Darius asked Shaun.

“What’s wrong with Mommy?”

The kids, who were already worried sick, panicked even further when they saw Gavin crying like that.

Plagued by guilt, Gavin sobbed as he said, “M-Mommy found out about our brother! It’s my fault! She overheard it

because I didn’t hear her coming! She was crying so hard!”

The other kids’ eyes reddened upon hearing that.

Darius furrowed his brows, but he was so worried about Arissa’s condition that he didn’t have time to ask the kids

what happened.

“Shaun, how is Issa?”

“She fainted from overwhelming sadness,” Shaun replied as he continued examining Arissa.

Darius knew her condition was rather serious when he saw how concerned Shaun looked. “Should we take her to a

hospital?”

He figured a hospital would be much better equipped to treat her.

“Yes. Get the car ready.”

Shaun agreed to send her to the hospital when all attempts at waking her up had failed.

“Why isn’t Mommy awake yet?” Jesse asked while sobbing loudly in fear.

“Mommy’s just unconscious. She’ll wake up soon,” Zachary comforted his sister even though deep down, he was

panicking like crazy too.

To their surprise, Arissa woke up right when Shaun was about to carry her into the car.

“Mommy’s awake!” Jasper exclaimed excitedly and wiped his tears.

“Mommy! You’re awake!” Oliver cried out in relief.

The kids were all excited and relieved to see that Arissa had regained consciousness.

“All right, you can put Issa down now that she’s awake,” Darius said as he stepped forward to hold Arissa steady.

“Are you okay, Mrs. Graham?” Shaun asked while helping her lie down on the bed.

“Yeah…”

Although Arissa was no longer overwhelmed by emotions like she was earlier, she was still trapped in a state of

grief.

“Please take better care of yourself, Mrs. Graham. Gavin and the others are really worried about you,” Shaun

advised after giving her a quick examination.

Arissa looked up and saw all five of her kids staring at her worriedly with reddened eyes.

She held her hand out, and they all came in for a hug.

Oh, my sweethearts! My precious sweethearts!

Tears flowed down Arissa’s cheeks as she hugged them tightly.

It pained Darius deeply to see her so sad. He turned to look at Shaun, and the latter motioned for him to talk

outside.

While Arissa and the five kids continued to cry, Darius followed Shaun out of the room and asked, “What happened

to Issa?”

“Gavin and the others discovered what happened to the missing child, and Mrs. Graham couldn’t take the shocking

news,” Shaun replied with a sigh.

Knowing that it couldn’t possibly be good news, Darius narrowed his eyes and asked softly, “What happened to the

child?”

Shaun looked him in the eye and said sadly, “Danna threw him into a dumpster. They say he died because no one

rescued him.”

Darius trembled all over as a look of grief filled his face.

“I… I haven’t even gotten a chance to see him…”

Shaun’s eyes reddened as well. The sounds of Arissa and the kids crying in the bedroom only worsened their

feelings of sadness.

“Please stop crying, Mommy.”

Jesse tried wiping the tears off Arissa’s face, but the tears refused to stop.

“He won’t blame you, Mommy. It’s the bad guys who are at fault!” Oliver shouted angrily with a sniffle.

“We should avenge him, Mommy!”

Jasper’s eyes were filled with hatred as he clenched his fists.

“You need to pull yourself together, Mommy! You still have us! We’ll always be with you!” Zachary comforted her.

“Say something, Mommy…” Gavin pleaded.

Instead of crying her heart out as most people would, Arissa simply sat there in silence while her tears kept flowing.

Naturally, seeing her like that worried the kids even more.

Hugging them tightly in her arms was the only way for her to keep herself grounded.

Neither Darius nor Shaun knew how they could comfort her as they watched from outside the room.

With a frown on his face, Darius decided to give his son a call and fill him in on the situation.
