Chapter 136: Chapter 136

Chapter 136 Mommy Should Tell The Truth As Gavin ran up the stairs, he looked adorable with his bag swinging behind him.

Arissa broke into a smile. The radiance of her motherly love was evident on her face.

“Slow down! Slow down! You might trip!” She hurried toward her child.

In return, Gavin wrapped his arms around her leg and shouted merrily, “Mommy!”

“Hey!” Arissa picked him up and pinched his little face. “Why are you so late?”

Gavin looked at her and smiled. “I was playing with my classmate at his house.”

Arissa chuckled before she whispered, “Your daddy knows that you were at my house.”

Hearing that, Gavin stole a glance at Benjamin.

The latter was standing in the living room, looking at the mother and son, his expression impossible to read.

Arissa looked at him before carrying Gavin upstairs.

“Gavin, have you had your dinner?”

“Yes. We had plenty of delicious food,” Gavin answered softly.

Arissa listened to him with much interest as she carried him to the child’s room before letting him down.

Then, she put his bag aside and stroked his hair.

“Do you want me to bathe you?”

“Mommy, I can bathe myself!” Gavin replied shyly.

Looking at his cute face, Arissa smiled and pinched his nose. “All right. You bathe yourself, and I’m going to shower too.”

He nodded and exclaimed, “Mommy, are you really staying here?”

“Yeah!” she answered with a smile and looked at the door.

She then lowered her voice and asked, “Are Zachary and the others with Mr. Hinton?”

“Yes.” Gavin nodded his head. “They went into hiding before anyone saw them. We came back right after that.”

She chuckled and hugged him. “Let’s go and take a shower. We’ll see who is the faster one!”

“Okay!” He nodded and ran toward the bathroom.

Arissa’s gaze was fixed on Gavin as he ran into the bathroom. She shook her head with a smile before going back to the guest room.

Gavin showered quickly. When he was done, he sent Zachary a text before he went to look for his mother.

He went to the door of the guest room’s bathroom and yelled, “Mommy, I’m done. Are you done yet?”

“Sweetheart, you’re so fast. I’m going to take a while. Wait for a moment.” Arissa was surprised.

After that, he stood in front of the door and talked with her.

“Mommy, why did Daddy ask you to come here?”

“Hmm... Maybe he thinks that it is safer for me to stay here. I was almost kidnapped yesterday.”

Arissa didn’t dare to tell him about the incident.

Since I’m not sure how Benjamin will tell Gavin about the incident, it’s more appropriate to give Gavin a vague answer. Besides, it’s not a lie that Benjamin indeed brought me here to keep me safe.

“Mommy, don’t you worry. It’s really safe here. But what about my brothers?” Gavin lowered his voice as he asked, “Will they stay with Mr. Hinton?”

“I guess that’s all we can do for the time being.” Arissa sighed.

“Mommy, why don’t you tell Daddy the truth? Once Daddy sees them, he will know that he has been tricked by Danna. Then, we can all stay together.

It is safer for them too,” he said after analyzing the situation.

She had thought about what he had said as well. However, she couldn’t take the risk before she was sure how Benjamin would react to it.

Should I tell Benjamin? I managed to get away yesterday because I caught them off-guard. Tonight, I was lucky to meet Benjamin. However, it doesn’t mean that I will be lucky every time. If they send more people in the future, it will be harder for me to get away unharmed. It is hard for me to guard myself against the enemy.
