“Mommy, I'm okay,” Gavin repeated himself and shook his head.

Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse nodded as well.
“Mommy, we're really okay. Have a look if you don't believe us!”

up.
He had Arissa's report in his hand.
“How is she?” Benjamin asked apprehensively.
Shaun smiled and said, “Arissa's all right. There's no sign of a concussion as well.”
Benjamin was beyond relieved to hear that.
“I told you I was all right. You were the one who insisted that I come here!” Arissa teased.
Benjamin shot her a glance.
“Benjamin is just worried about you. It's good that you guys came here to check,” Shaun added with a grin.
He turned to say hi to the six children.
Meanwhile, Arissa trained her eyes on Benjamin and circled his arms around hers.
“Now that I'm okay, you can finally relax, right?”
“Yeah,” Benjamin replied half-heartedly.
“Since we're already here, why don't we go visit Grandaunt?” Arissa suggested.
“Mdm. Mary's already asleep when I left,” Shaun said.
“Is she doing better today?” Arissa asked Shaun.
“She's recovering well. Don't worry, Arissa. We're taking good care of her,” Shaun reassured her.
“Thank you,” Arissa uttered.
“Mommy, are we still going to see Great-grandaunt?” Tim asked in a small voice.
He looked expectantly at Arissa, his eyes telling her that he wanted to go visit Mary.
Arissa turned to Benjamin.
“Let's go and visit Grandaunt,” Benjamin stated.

who's behind this?”
“I'll have to wait for Ethen's report to be sure,” Benjamin merely stated.
His expression was grim, as he surmised that it might not have been an accident.
Shaun looked at the man and asked, “Do you need any help?”
Benjamin swept a glance at him and said, “I'll let you know.”
Shaun nodded.
“Just take good care of Grandaunt. You don't need to worry about the rest,” Benjamin muttered.
“Okay. You can rest assured that I'll take care of things around here,” Shaun replied.
Arissa led the children out of the ward and said to Benjamin, “All right. Let's go home now.”
Benjamin glanced at them and took Arissa's hand in his. “Are you feeling dizzy?”
“I'm feeling much better now.”
Other than feeling a little pain in her wound, Arissa didn't think she was hurt anywhere else.
