Chapter 457 A Piece Of Good News
Again, Gavin just let the phone ring without answering it.
Zachary then glanced at him and asked, “Who’s calling?”
“That jerk!” Gavin scoffed.
Jasper and Oliver leaned over and stuck out their tongues in disdain when they saw Benjamin calling.
“Are you not going to answer it, Gavin?” Jesse gazed at Gavin.
When Gavin peeped at the phone, it’d stopped ringing.
However, it started ringing again within the next second. It seemed like the caller was rather persistent.
Gavin snorted and eventually picked up the phone.
“What’s with you, Gavin? Why are you not answering your phone?” Benjamin asked.
Gavin remained silent despite hearing Benjamin’s question.
Without getting a response, Benjamin sighed silently and uttered, “Gavin, I have a piece of good news!”
Gavin just frowned and kept mum because he didn’t know what Benjamin was going to say next.
Benjamin didn’t bother to check if Gavin was listening or not, and he said right away, “Your brother is not dead. He’s

Gavin was shocked. “Our brother is alive?”
“What?” Zachary voiced in surprise.
“Our brother is alive?” Jasper asked in shock.
The both of them were staring at Gavin blankly.
When Benjamin finally heard a response from Gavin and the others, a smile appeared on his face. “He’s still alive!”
Gavin was elated, and he told Zachary and the others, “Daddy said our brother is still alive!”
Hearing that, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse cheered excitedly.
“Really? Where is he?”
“He’s in the village that you guys visited the last time!” Benjamin answered.
Since Gavin had already placed the call in speaker mode, the rest of them were over the moon when they heard
that.
“Mr. Graham, have you seen him?” Jesse leaned over and asked.
“Yes, I have!” Benjamin answered firmly.
Finally, the five young ones had gotten the confirmation of their brother still being alive.
“That’s awesome! Mommy is going to be so happy when she finds out that he’s still alive!” Jasper exclaimed.
Zachary added, “Definitely! Mommy is going to be overjoyed! It’s all our fault that we’ve told her about the bad
news without getting the correct information.”
“I’ll call Mommy now!” Oliver chimed in.
Worried that the kids might disrupt Arissa’s sleep, Benjamin quickly said, “Don’t call your mommy now. I’m with
her!”
“You’re with Mommy? Aren’t you supposed to be on a business trip?” Oliver asked.
“I’ve returned!” Benjamin replied gently.
Gavin’s eyes flickered and thought of something. “You didn’t go on a business trip last night, did you? You’ve gone
to look for our brother instead, right?”
“Yes,” Benjamin answered.
“Mr. Graham, did you bring our brother back? Where are you guys now?” Jesse was eager to see her brother.
“I didn’t get to bring him back! When I go over the next time, I’ll surely bring him back with me!” Benjamin said.
Hearing that, the five little ones exchanged glances with one another.
Gavin frowned and asked, “He didn’t want to acknowledge you, right?”

“It must be because you were too stern! I bet you’ve scared him!” Jasper chimed in.
“Mr. Graham, our brother is in that village, right? What’s his name?” Zachary asked.
“Yes, he is. I think it’s Tim!” Benjamin had already heard a thing or two from the village chief and found out that
was how they addressed him.
“We’ll go there and see him, then!” Zachary suggested and looked at his siblings.
Gavin nodded. “We’ll go and look for him!”
Zachary nodded firmly in response.
Right then, Jesse and Jasper also said, “Count me in!”
Benjamin wanted to stop them, but he hesitated. Perhaps it’s a good idea to let the siblings meet each other.
“Sure! You guys can follow Mr. Bailey if you want to go over. Once you guys have arrived, look for Ethen if you need
anything. He’s with him. When you guys see Tim, mind your words, okay? Don’t get him agitated. In fact, just play
with him and don’t talk too much!” Benjamin urged.
“Why is Mr. Bailey going there?” Gavin was puzzled. Isn’t he a doctor? Why does he need to go there?
