NovelEnglishChapter 419 He Hates People Using Her Name
“I only fainted because I got a little too angry, Mommy!” Gavin exclaimed with his face red from
embarrassment.
Arissa’s heart softened up a little upon hearing that. “Are you sure you’re not feeling unwell?”
Gavin nodded. “Yeah, I’m sure! How about you, Mommy? Are you feeling better yet?”
Arissa nodded as well. “I’m fine too. Do you want to carry on sleeping?”
Gavin shook his head. “I’m sorry for making you worry, Mommy.”
“It’s okay. I’m just glad you’re all right,” Arissa said while gently running her fingers through his hair.

She then carried him into the bathroom, sat him down on the chair, and began wiping his face with a
wet towel.
“Where are Zachary and the others, Mommy?” Gavin asked when he realized he hadn’t seen everyone
else.

“I’ll go find them then, Mommy,” Gavin said as he turned around and ran out of the room.
Arissa paused briefly in surprise, only to shake her head with a smile as she didn’t think much about it.
She saw Benjamin busily working on something when she came out of the bathroom, but she called
out to him anyway, “I’ll be heading downstairs now, okay?”
Benjamin simply looked up at her and nodded before getting back to work.
Arissa then followed Gavin down the stairs, and everyone came rushing over the moment they saw
him.
“Please don’t scare me like that ever again, Gavin! I don’t think my heart can take much more of this
shock!” Shaun exclaimed as he gave Gavin a quick examination.
Gavin simply nodded at him in response.
“Are you all right?” Zachary asked worriedly.
“Yeah, I’m fine now. Looks like I really scared you guys, huh?” Gavin said apologetically.
“Yes, you did! You just stopped moving all of a sudden! Zachary was so scared that he started crying!”
Jasper replied with a mischievous smile.
Zachary burned bright red from embarrassment upon hearing that. “You’re the one who started crying
first!”
“Exactly! Jasper had snot all over his face!” Oliver chimed in as well.
Darius, Shaun, and Edwin had smiles on their faces when they saw the kids having fun again.
“Old Mr. Graham,” Arissa greeted as she made her way over.
“Are you feeling better? Go on and have a seat in the living room,” Darius said as he continued to cook
in the kitchen with an apron on.
This was the first time she had seen him looking like this.
“I’m feeling much better now, Old Mr. Graham. Why don’t you go play with Gavin and the others
instead? I’ll do the cooking.”
She couldn’t bring herself to let an elder do the cooking while she rested on the sidelines.
“No, that won’t be necessary. Edwin and I can handle this on our own. The kids were depressed
because you and Gavin fell ill, so you should spend more time with them instead,” Darius said while

Arissa shifted her gaze toward the kids in the living room upon hearing that.
All five of them quickly looked away when they noticed her staring at them.
Thinking they were just embarrassed to admit it, Arissa simply smiled at them without thinking too
much about it.
Unbeknownst to her, the kids were actually feeling guilty about keeping a secret from her.
“Why don’t you stop worrying and just go play with them, Mrs. Graham?” Shaun suggested as he
joined Darius and Edwin in the kitchen.
“Shaun, you need to stop calling me ‘Mrs. Graham.’ Just address me by my name,” Arissa protested
helplessly.
“Well, Benjamin doesn’t seem to mind, so why are you complaining? In fact, he hates it when I address
you by your name,” Shaun replied with a chuckle.
As if they had just discovered a huge secret, the kids stared wide-eyed at them upon hearing that.
Arissa cleared her throat awkwardly and said in her most casual tone possible, “That’s his business
then, not mine!”
Not wanting to argue with her any further, Shaun simply flashed her a smile and went back to work in
the kitchen.
