    Chapter 3: Misidentifying The Son


    “I''m sorry! We don''t want to take any pictures! Thank you for taking an interest in us, but you better


    stop taking pictures,” Zachary pleaded.


    After turning down the crowd''s request, he approached Jasper and tapped him on the shoulder to warn


    him not to let other people take pictures of him.


    Jasper stuck out his tongue at his elder brother. Nevertheless, he followed Zachary''s advice and


    ceased his poses obediently.


    Not only was the public not angry at the rejection, but they were also impressed by Zachary''s


    politeness in handling the situation. They continued to watch the quadruplets with interest.


    As more curious onlookers began to gather around them, Arissa hurriedly shouted at her children,


    “Come on, kids! Let''s move faster!” They could not afford to stay any longer to avoid causing


    congestion at the airport.


    The four young children immediately followed their mother''s lead and moved away from the crowd.


    However, Oliver York suddenly called out to Arissa, “Mommy, I want to pee. I had too much juice on the


    ne just now.”


    Oliver mped his legs together while looking desperately for any sign of a restroom. As soon as he


    saw a sign, he wanted to rush toward it.


    “Okay, I''ll bring you guys over there!” Arissa prompted.


    She also wanted to use the restroom, so she let her children enter first as she watched over their


    luggage.


    “Zachary, I need to poop!” Oliver told his elder brother before rushing to an empty cubicle.


    “Ugh, you''re so troublesome. Hurry up!” Zachary admonished him before leading Jasper and Jesse out


    after washing their hands.


    “Mommy, we''re done. You can go in now. Also, Oliver is still inside.”


    “Okay, you guys be good and wait for me here. Remember not to wander off on your own!”


    Arissa reminded her children before entering thedies'' restroom.


    “Gosh! I wonder when Dani will arrive. I''ve been waiting since four o''clock. Yet, there''s still no sign of


    her!”


    “Four o''clock? I''ve been waiting here sincest night, just in case I missed her flight!”


    “There! Dani''s ne has finally arrived! Come, follow me!”


    “What? Wait for me!”


    Someone in the crowd eximed, and hurried footsteps could be hearding from outside, heading


    toward the entrance.


    Arissa was baffled by the crowd''s reaction to the repeated mentions of a person called Dani.


    Who is she? A celebrity? They sounded like a group of young fans. Well, only fans would be in that


    kind of frenzy for their idol.


    Zachary stood beside the family''s luggage along with his two younger siblings. Suddenly, a group of


    people dashed out of thedies'' restroom, and they headed in the same direction. The three siblings


    jumped back in fright. Some of their luggage was knocked over by the running mob.


    Zachary swiftly pulled the other two to the side to avoid getting hit by the rushing crowd.


    “What are they doing? They didn''t even bother to apologize for knocking over our stuff! How rude!”


    Jasper red at the girls'' retreating form with anger.


    “Stupid fans!” Zachary protested. Jesse helped her brother in lifting the luggage and echoed, “I know,


    right? They''re so stupid!”


    “If their parents knew about their awful behaviors, they would surely regret giving birth to them!”


    Jasper harrumphed while waiting obediently for Arissa.


    Jesse stood next to her older brothers while looking at her surroundings curiously. Then, her eyes


    stopped at the sight of multiple children with cotton candy in their hands. She swallowed and pointed.


    “Look! They have cotton candy over there!”


    Jasper quickly nced in the direction and found the store his younger sibling was pointing at. He then


    tugged the hem of Zachary''s shirt excitedly and said, “I''m going over there to buy some cotton candy


    for us!”


    “Mommy told us to wait here. So don''t run off on your own!” Zachary advised despite also wanting to


    get a taste of the confection.


    They did not have cotton candy overseas. They only found out about such a thing from Arissa after


    seeing it on the inte.


    “Come on! I''ll be back immediately once I''ve bought the cotton candy. Mommy and Oliver are still inside


    the restroom. I''ll be back in a sh!”


    With that, he ran over to the store, leaving Zachary unable to do anything to dissuade his brother.


    “Be careful!”


    “I know!” Jasper cheered as he sprinted toward his destination.


    On the other side of the airport, a group of bodyguards looked around frantically for someone.


    “Oh, no! This is bad. Gavin has disappeared!”


    “Hurry up and find him! If Mr. Graham finds out about this, we''ll be skinned alive!”


    The bodyguards hastily scattered in different directions, hoping to find Gavin before Benjamin returned.


    The airport was of average size. Nheless, with it being jam-packed with people, it would be a


    daunting task for anyone to search for a missing child.


    After searching for a while, one of the eagle-eyed bodyguards spotted a familiar figure with cotton


    candy in hand in front of a store.


    “I''ve found him! Gavin is over there buying cotton candy.” The bodyguard excitedly informed the rest of


    his colleagues.


    In less than a minute, they quickly gathered around Jasper.


    “Gavin, we''ve found you atst! Please don''t give us such a fright anymore! There are too many people


    in the airport. It''s too dangerous to run off on your own. Come on, let''s return quickly! Mr. Graham will


    come out very soon.”


    They did not wait for Jasper''s response, nor did they notice the difference in the appearance of the


    young boy. One bodyguard took the cotton candies, while another picked him up and darted off to


    another ce.


    Jasper was rendered speechless as he was stunned by their sudden actions. What is going on?


    Regardless, he came to his senses soon enough.


    “Hey! What on earth are you doing? Let go of me quickly! Or I''ll scream!” Jasper fiercely warned the


    group of ck-d bodyguards. He intended not to show them how frightened he was at that moment.


    “Gavin, please stop fooling around! Your daddy will be worried sick if he finds out that you have


    disappeared!”


    The bodyguards concluded that the little one was pulling a prank on them. They continued to coax him


    as they rushed toward the Rolls-Royce without further dy.Jasper''s eyes widened in fear. Am I being


    kidnapped?


    “Help! Mmph!”


    Jasper struggled to break free as he tried to call for help, but the bodyguard immediately covered his


    mouth to muffle his voice.


    He frantically bit the bodyguard''s palm in return. Unfortunately for Jasper, the guy did not let go of him


    as he continued to move forward.


    “Gavin, please don''t be angry at us. I''ll release you once we''re back in the car.”


    The bodyguard was not furious at Jasper for biting his hand as he continued to coax him patiently.


    These bodyguards had learned their lesson that day. They would not dare to let him out of their sight in


    fear that he might run off again.


    After all, this was not the first time Gavin had hidden away from them.


    “Gavin, there are too many people here. Just let us know if you want to eat anything, and we''ll buy it for


    you. What if you ran into people and got hurt?”


    The other bodyguards kept trying to talk some sense into him.


    Huh? Who is Gavin?


    Jasper was dumbstruck at the sudden realization.


    These men had called him by that ever since they took him away. Furthermore, they mentioned


    something about a daddy just now.


    Jasper silently observed the dozen or so well-trained bodyguards around him. There was not a single


    hint of malice on their faces. With that confirmation, his anxiety quickly subsided.


    Jasper kept his gaze on them as he pondered about the current situation.


    These men are behaving as if they are familiar with me. I certainly don''t know them! Perhaps they have


    mistaken me for someone else?


    Jasper heaved a sigh of frustration. He nned to go along with them for the time being.Even if he was


    kidnapped by these strangers, the chances of him escaping from their grasp were close to zero.


    Meanwhile, Arissa could only see Zachary and Jesse when she exited the restroom. “Oliver still hasn''t


    come out? Where''s Jasper?” she asked.


    “Mommy, Jasper went to buy cotton candy. Oliver is still inside the restroom.” Zachary nced at the


    cotton candy store.


    However, his sight was blocked by a sea of people. Zachary frowned as he failed to locate his younger


    brother. Didn''t you promise to return soon?


    “Where did he run off to?” Arissa clicked her tongue. Despite her nagging, she was not mad at Jasper.


    She knew her third son had a superb sense of direction. Regardless of how unfamiliar the ce was,


    he would always find his way back to her.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
