Chapter 21 I Am Sorry
Meanwhile, after they finished eating, the four children helped Arissa clean the dishes. She smiled and
did not stop them from helping her.
Some habits have to be practiced at an early age.
“Be careful!” She had just barked a warning when Gavin broke a bowl.
He had jerked at Arissa’s loud reminder and lost grip on the bowl. “Mommy, I’m sorry!”
Arissa saw how nervous Gavin was, and she burst out laughing. “It’s okay as long as you’re not hurt!”
Hastily, she pulled Gavin away, grabbed a broom, and gathered all the shard pieces into a trash bag.
“Go outside and play first. There might still be broken pieces lying around. I’ll take care of it!”
“Come on, let’s go out!” Zachary pulled Gavin out and comforted him, “It’s all right!”
Gavin still felt very sorry.
Zachary knew he had not done household chores before, and hence it was absolutely normal to
accidentally break a bowl.
“Just be careful in the future. We have broken bowls before too!”
“Yes! I broke two in the past!” Jesse laughed awkwardly, showing an adorable smile with missing teeth.
“You’re luckier than me. Mommy was in a good mood. She scolded me the last time I broke a bowl!”
Oliver envied him, and Gavin looked at them in surprise.
I see. They have broken bowls before, too. Suddenly, he felt much better.
The four of them went out into the living room. Oliver still remembered the previous matter and
beckoned Zachary into the room to explain clearly.
Zachary knew Oliver couldn’t contain his curiosity any longer, so he headed over.
In the kitchen, Arissa looked closely at the floor. She was concerned about any small splinters hidden
from view, so she took the tape and pasted it on the floor repeatedly.
After ascertaining there were no more splinters on the floor, she wrapped the trash bag in tape to avoid
being cut by splinters poking out.
She then threw it in the trash.
Meanwhile, there were three of them in the room, and Gavin started the conversation. “What was going
on at dinner just now?”
“Someone’s investigating me!”
Zachary cast him a glance. Gavin immediately guessed who that person was. Daddy’s always
perceptive.
“Thank goodness I stopped it, so they can’t find out anything about me!” Zachary was a little smug.
“Explain it to me!” Oliver was still at a loss and urged them to let the cat out of the bag. So mysterious.
Can’t they give me the full context before continuing their conversation?
Zachary glanced outside before whispering to him, “We’re talking about Daddy!”
“What?” Oliver was shocked and looked at them in disbelief. “You guys figured out who he is?” When
did that happen? They didn’t even tell me!
Jesse heard Oliver’s loud voice, ran over, and asked, “What are you talking about?”
“Nothing important. Go take a bath first!” Zachary was not going to tell Jesse yet, because he knew
Jesse couldn’t keep a secret. The child would surely tell Arissa about it.
We don’t know what Daddy’s thinking yet. I should keep this a secret from Mommy. Anyway, Mommy
will see him tomorrow when she goes to Graham Group, so it’s better to let her find out herself.
Jesse pouted and said, “I just finished eating. I don’t want to take a bath yet!” The child then looked at
three of them and asked with a smile, “You are talking about some secret, aren’t you?”
“No, it’s not a secret. Zachary asked me for money!” Oliver thought of an excuse.
Jesse’s eyes snapped open. No wonder he was so loud. It was because Zachary asked for money. The
cheery child smiled.
“I have money. How much do you want? I’ll give it to you!”
Zachary was delighted when he noticed how generous Jesse was. He patted the latter’s head
affectionately.
“I don’t want your money. I want his. Now, go out and watch television!”
“Okay…” With that, Jesse looked at them and then ran out.
It was not long before the sound of television was heard.
At this moment, Gavin admired Zachary because he effortlessly got Jesse to listen.
Oliver closed the door and continued excitedly, “Do you know who Daddy is?”
Both Zachary and Gavin nodded. “We know!”
“Who is he? What’s he like? Is he handsome? Is he rich?”
Looking at Oliver’s sparkling eyes, Zachary sighed. Thankfully, he wasn’t the one who had switched.
Otherwise, he certainly would keep clinging to Daddy and ruin our plans.
“It’s Benjamin Graham!” replied Gavin.
“Huh?” Oliver was stunned, then happy. He exclaimed, “Great! I’m going to tell Mommy! Since she’s
going to Graham Group tomorrow, she’d better be mentally prepared for the encounter!” He has
enormous riches, and he must be very handsome. After all, we are all good-looking. Daddy will not be
any worse than us.
“Stop right there!” Seeing Oliver about to go out, Zachary hurriedly stopped him. “If you tell Mommy
now, would she still be able to focus on the interview tomorrow?”
“You’re right!” Oliver looked at them, then asked, “How did you know who Daddy is?”
Zachary pointed at Gavin, who was smiling.
“My name is Gavin Graham!”
Oliver was dumbfounded.
Arissa finished cleaning and noticed that Jesse was alone in the living room watching television.
“Where are your brothers?”
“They’re in the room!”
Arissa frowned. How mysterious these sons are.
She walked over, knocked on the door, and opened it.
The three turned their heads and looked at her. She laughed and stated, “It’s time for you to take a bath
and go to bed!”
“Mommy, you wash Jesse first! We will take a bath later!” said Zachary.
Arissa looked around and didn’t see them playing any computer games, but she reminded them
anyway, “Don’t play computer games for too long. It will hurt your eyes!”
“All right!” The three nodded their heads.
Arissa then took Jesse for a bath. After which, she took a shower.
Zachary received a text message from Jasper, saying that Benjamin had people investigate the former.
In response, he told Jasper what had happened, and the latter was surprised.
Fortunately, he let Mommy go for the interview. Will Mommy be surprised when she sees him? Mommy
is so beautiful, and Daddy will like her very much. Jasper grew excited.
Arissa didn’t know their secret. After she took a shower, she slowly arranged her thoughts. It’s a little
hard to find out what happened then especially with Danna acting all prickly, but it’s not untraceable.
The pieces of the puzzle will come together once I find that woman. She made a phone call. “Have you
found out anything about that woman yet?”
“I checked with the village this afternoon, but they told me the couple has long moved away!”
Arissa frowned deeply. They have done terrible things. Of course, they would go into hiding.
“Come back and help me check out Danna Adams first. I suspect she’s the mastermind. We met today,
and if it was her, she’ll feel guilty and will surely look for that couple. Check her out secretly!”
“Danna Adams? Is she the actress from the Adams family?”
“That’s right. Do you know her?”
“I’ve heard some rumors about her. Why didn’t I think of her in the first place? She seems to be very
close to Benjamin. We’ll investigate her, but it might not go so smoothly. Boss, by the way, did you meet
Benjamin at Graham Group today?”
“No. Things happened.” Arissa’s eyelids flickered. “Anyhow, I’m going to meet with him tomorrow. He
suddenly changed his mind and wants to interview me again. I think that woman may not be that
important. Come back first!”
After talking for a while, she hung up the phone and went out to check on the children. The four of them
were sound asleep.
She tucked them in before going back to her room to sleep.
She couldn’t stop thinking about Benjamin. What kind of person is he?
