Chapter 321 You Gave Her A Scare
A crease appeared between Benjamin’s brows as he instructed Ethen, “Go upstairs and take a look to see if he’s inside the kids’ room!”
Benjamin was worried that the kids would be scared when they saw Jack.
“Yes, Mr. Graham!”
Ethen immediately headed back into the house to check. Right after he stepped into the house, he heard a scream coming from upstairs, and his expression darkened instantly.
Arissa had also heard the scream. She stopped whatever she was doing at once and rushed out of the kitchen.
“Mrs. Graham, I’ll take a look upstairs. Jack might have scared the kids,” Ethen informed Arissa.
“Hurry, please help to check on them now!”
Arissa nodded. As she was in the midst of cooking something over the stove, she waited by the stairs and listened closely.
Soon, she heard Ethen reprimanding Jack, “Jack, did you scare the kids earlier on?”
Arissa chuckled. As both men were Benjamin’s trusted subordinates, she was certain that the kids were safe with them.
Feeling relieved, she returned to the kitchen and continued preparing breakfast.
Ethen stared at Jack and said, “You gave Mrs. Graham a scare too!”
Jack laughed in embarrassment and replied, “I couldn’t help myself and was staring at the kids earlier on. As they didn’t recognize me, they got a shock when they saw me after waking up. It won’t happen again!”
Ethen was speechless when he heard the man’s explanation.
“Mr. Graham is downstairs. Are you going to greet him?” Ethen shot a glance at Jack and asked.
“Mr. Graham is awake?”
Jack was slightly stunned.
“He’s by the pool!” Ethen replied.
“Well, little ones, I need to look for your daddy now. I’ll play with you guys next time!”
Jack stroked the children’s heads one by one before making his way out of the room.
The five little ones were momentarily stunned.
However, as Gavin was already used to the man’s silly behavior, he quickly snapped out of his daze and said, “Let’s go and wash up!”
After saying that, the eldest boy stood up and led the way.
Just then, Ethen walked over to hug the kids affectionately.
“Good morning, boys and Ms. Jesse!”
Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse widened their eyes at Ethen.
“Mr. Frank, you know Jesse is a girl?”
Ethen was amused by Jasper’s question and touched his cheek lovingly.
“Of course! Ms. Jesse was the first one I met.”
Ethen took Jesse in his arms and pinched her cheek affectionately.
Jesse chuckled joyfully while Zachary and Oliver smiled, recalling the moment they met Benjamin. At the time, Jesse was with Arissa, and they were unable to avoid the man in time.
As such, they could only leave Jesse to deal with Ethen.
“Mr. Frank, Daddy doesn’t know about Jesse yet. You have to keep it a secret!”
Gavin kept an uptight expression as he reminded Ethen solemnly.
Ethen made an OK gesture and replied, “I promise not to tell!”
After pondering for a moment, Ethen asked, “Does Jack know about Ms. Jesse?”
“Doesn’t seem like it!” Zachary replied confidently.
The corners of the boy’s lips curled up into a smile as he recalled Jack’s silly mannerisms and thought about how careless the man was.
Earlier on, although Jasper had a slip of the tongue, the man did not seem to notice it at all.
“Come, I’ll bring you all to wash up now!”
Ethen picked up two kids, one in each hand. After placing them on the floor, he turned to fetch the rest from the bed.
Zachary and Jasper quickly slipped out of bed themselves and put on their shoes before following Gavin to the bathroom.
Ethen smiled affectionately when he saw that.
“You guys don’t want to be carried by me?”
“We haven’t washed up yet!” Jasper replied while Jesse ran into the bathroom with a smile on her face.
Meanwhile, Oliver doubled back to retrieve his glasses.
When Ethen saw that the boy only headed to the bathroom after putting on his glasses, he asked, “Oliver, isn’t it very inconvenient for you to wash your face while wearing your glasses?”
“I can’t see without my glasses!” Oliver replied without turning around.
Even though the boy was the last to reach the bathroom, Zachary had already squeezed toothpaste on his brother’s toothbrush.
“Thanks, big brother! Oops, sorry, you’re my second eldest brother now,” Oliver said cheekily.
“Well, I don’t mind if you continue treating me as your big brother!” Zachary replied with a joyful expression on his face.
He missed those days when he was the eldest kid.
“What if I mind?” Gavin teased his brother.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Zachary glanced at the older boy before replying, “I should have asked Mommy to give birth to me first!”
Gavin was speechless when he heard that.
