Chapter 224 Is She Shy

“Mommy, you weren’t there, but all of us saw his expression when he was holding Danna. It didn’t look like he doesn’t care about her,” Jasper could not help complaining to Arissa.

“When was it?” Arissa did not know about that.

“When Danna was involved in a car accident. He went to the scene.” Zachary’s expression turned gloomy. “It was obvious that he was afraid that she would die. He definitely cares about her. We aren’t blind!”

At that moment, Arissa understood why the children disliked Benjamin, especially Gavin.

He must have been sad when he saw Benjamin doing that.

“All of you were at the scene at that time?”

The quintuplets pouted at her question.

Arissa’s gaze traveled across the five of them as she waited for them to answer.

“Mommy, I did it!” Gavin lowered his head and admitted, “I asked someone to bump into that woman.”

Needless to say, she was baffled, as she had never imagined the mastermind behind the accident to be her son.

If Danna found out about it, she would never let Gavin go.

“Sweetheart, don’t do anything like this in the future. Let the adults handle it.”

Shocked, Arissa hugged her son and comforted him.

She did not want the children to hold grudges as it was not good for their mental health.

Kissing his forehead, she was relieved that Danna did not die.

Arissa could not imagine how Gavin’s life would turn out if Danna were to die because of him.

“Mommy, don’t worry. I only asked them to teach her a lesson. I never intended to kill her,” Gavin explained, even though he did not want that woman to be alive.

She hugged him, feeling relieved. “Sweetheart, you did the right thing. It’s okay to teach bad guys a lesson, but we can’t take away other people’s lives. I don’t want any of you to become a murderer. It’s not worth ruining your life for such a person. Don’t do that anymore, okay?”

She had not expected her son to find someone to hit Danna with a car.

He must hate Danna a lot.

“I know I was wrong, Mommy.” Gavin nodded as he took in everything Arissa said.

“You’re not wrong, and I’m not blaming you but worried about you. If Danna finds out about this, you’ll be in more danger. I don’t want to lose you again!” Arissa explained clearly to Gavin so that it would not weigh on his mind.

Gavin hugged her back, smelling the fragrance of her body. The corners of his lips curved into a smile. “I know. Mommy loves me a lot.”

Caressing his head, Arissa shifted her gaze to Zachary.

The latter flinched and uttered, “Mommy, I took part in the plan too. But the others didn’t know about it. They only found out about it after it happened.”

Arissa sighed resignedly. “In the future, don’t do things like this anymore. You might ruin your life because of it.” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“I understand now.” Zachary nodded.

She gave the children a talking-to before taking them downstairs.

In the meantime, Benjamin was already in the dining room, reading a newspaper.

After bringing the children over, Arissa looked at him and greeted, “Mr. Graham.”

He gave her a side glance and responded, “Sit down.”

Nodding, Arissa settled the children down.

Just as she was about to take a seat as well, Benjamin instructed, “You sit over here.”

He pointed at the seat opposite the children.

Once she met his gaze, she could not help but think of the dream she had last night and avoided his gaze in embarrassment.

Benjamin was intrigued by her reaction.

Why is she avoiding me? Or is she too shy to look at me?

A devilish smile flitted across his face.

Intimidated by him, Arissa sat down opposite the children, a seat away from him.

“Am I scary?”

“Huh?” Arissa was startled.

Benjamin shot her a glance and instructed Edwin to serve the breakfast.

The quintuplets shifted their gazes between Benjamin and Arissa.

Mommy’s face is so red.
