Chapter 289 You Matter Most
Gavin turned around and shot him a re. “They won’t!”
Benjamin nodded, feeling relieved that the five kids were getting along well despite their many years of
separation.
“I’ve asked Mr. Pattterson to take handle the court case against Danna. He’ll try to get her the heaviest
sentence possible.”
Gavin’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
Mr. Pattterson is amazing! With him working on the case, that woman is bound to get punished!
“Don’t think this is enough for me to forgive you, though. You’re always going against your word. I know
you still care about her!”
Benjamin frowned as he eyed his son from head to toe. This kid sure has severely misunderstood me.
“Would I have forced her into such a situation if I cared about her? A woman’s reputation is ruined
forever once she goes to prison. That’s not a ce for normal people, you know?”
Gavin’s guard loosened up a little. “But you carried her to safety back then! You were afraid that she
would die!”
Benjamin paused. Oh, now I see what this kid is going on about.
“Next time, do not take such matters into your own hands. Let me know if someone bullies you, and I’ll
make them pay. You’re still very young, Gavin. If Danna were to die in this ident, you’ll have her
blood on your hands for the rest of your life. People might even find ways to threaten you with it in the
future. I’m sure your mommy wouldn’t want you to do such a thing either. I saved Danna because her
life was at stake. I can’t just sit by and watch if someone I know is in danger, but that doesn’t mean I
have feelings for her.”

Benjamin softened his tone as he continued, “It’s my fault for not looking after you well enough. I’m
sorry I didn’t notice the signs of you being abused by her.”
I didn’t even notice that my son was being abused right under my nose. It’s no wonder he doesn’t have
any confidence in a terrible father like me.
“Look, no one matters more to me than you do.”
That was the first time Benjamin had said something so affectionate.
Gavin felt a warm sensation in his heart and asked with a pout, “What about Zachary and the others?”
“They matter too, but you’re different!” Benjamin replied while patting him on the head.
As he had raised Gavin himself, it was only natural that he had a stronger bond with him.
Of course, he loved the other four kids just as much, but he also felt a sense of guilt toward them.
Gavin felt a lot better after hearing that, but maintained a frown on his face as he said, “No ying
favorites, okay? You must treat my siblings better than me!”
Benjamin didn’t know whether tough or cry in response to that.
He really loves his siblings, huh? That’s good to know.
“You ask me not to y favorites, but you want me to treat them better than you? Isn’t that ying
favorites too?”
“Hmph!” Gavin snorted.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be stricter on you than I am with them. You’re the big brother, so you need to y the
role of a leader. If any one of you does something wrong, I will punish all of you together!” Benjamin
told him sternly.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you have the chance to do that! I’ll be a good big brother!”
Gavin then hopped off his leg and ran outside.
“Keep an eye on your brothers! Don’t let them disturb your mommy from resting!” Benjamin called out
to him.
“Got it!” Gavin shouted and ran upstairs.
Arissa figured the kids were on their way back when she got off the phone with them.
She had wanted to wait for them to arrive, but ended up falling asleep without even realizing it.
Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse made sure to be very quiet when they opened the door.
Noticing that she was fast asleep on the bed, they tried their best to not make a sound as they slowly
crept over to the bed.
