Chapter 475

Chapter 475 A Secret

“Tim, these are gifts from me. I have to return to Dellmoor now. Let’s play again next time, okay? Bye!”

Jack turned to leave once he finished speaking, and before stepping out, he even snatched the apple from Ethen’s

hand.

Oh, this bugger!

Glaring at him, a thought surfaced in the latter’s mind. I thought he left earlier. Who knew he would have gone to

buy Tim some gifts.

“Thank you!” the boy quickly said.

Nonetheless, he was unsure if the man had heard him since he couldn’t even see his silhouette anymore.

Having noticed the frustrated look on Tim’s face, Ethen patted his head and said, “You’ll still have the chance to see

Mr. Jack next time.”

Tim was feeling a little guilty. I wasn’t even able to tell Mr. Jack my name, but he’s already bought me gifts.

“Mr. Frank, you have Mr. Jack’s phone number, right? Can you please help me thank him?”



“Of course!” Ethen said, nodding.

Then, he sent Jack a text right in front of the boy.

Seeing that Mary had fallen asleep, Tim had no choice but to put the apple aside.

“Your grandma was tired earlier, so she went to sleep. Don’t worry,” Ethan consoled.



Hearing that, Tim nodded and sat by the bed, keeping the old lady company.

Later on, Gavin and the others came back. Once they checked up on Mary, they finally asked about Jack.

“Wasn’t Mr. Jack here earlier?”

“He went back to Dellmoor,” Ethen answered.

Five of the kids were shocked to hear that.

“Why did he go back to Dellmoor again?” Zachary asked.

“He went there because he needs to help out with your daddy’s work,” the man explained.



The five kids then walked over to where Tim was and noticed that there was only one apple left.

They guessed that it was probably for Mary. After exchanging glances with each other, they went over to the coffee

table and helped to cut up some apples. Then, they arranged it on a plate.

“Tim, come have some apples!” Gavin called.

“You guys go ahead. I want to stay with Grandma.”

Tim took a look at them, but he didn’t join them.

Eyes twinkling, the former turned to Jasper and gave him a look.

Seeing that, the latter instantly walked over and dragged Tim over to them.

“Grandma’s asleep, so let’s go over there. If you stay there, you might disturb her rest!”

The boy was dragged away easily since Jasper was quite strong.

“Come over and we can eat together!”

Zachary grinned brightly as he scooted over to give some space for Tim. Then, pulling him down for a seat, he took

a piece of the apple with a toothpick and fed it to the latter.

Tim had no way of rejecting him at all. Taking the toothpick from him, he said, “You guys should eat too!”

“The apples you bought are delicious, Tim!” Jesse said with a smile after she gobbled a piece of apple.

He couldn’t seem to look away at the sight of the girl’s bright smile.

Her smile looks so good.

“Let me tell you a secret that not even Daddy knows.”

Then, leaning in, Oliver whispered, “Jesse is our sister!”

Confused, Tim eyed Jesse carefully. She doesn’t look like a girl no matter how I look at her.

“Hehe. I’m a girl, Tim!” the girl giggled happily, revealing her teeth and even her gums. It was simply adorable.

“Oh.” Tim was dumbfounded. “I thought you were a boy.”

Smiling, Gavin informed, “Mommy told Jesse to wear boyish clothes like us, and she even had her hair cut short. I

used to think that she’s our brother in the beginning too.”

Tim understood instantly having heard that.

Ethen couldn’t help but feel happy for Benjamin and Arissa when he saw that the boy was getting along well with

the other kids.



This is a good thing.

He then snapped a picture of them and sent it to Benjamin.

With Gavin, Zachary, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse’s approach, Tim sat happily with them as they enjoyed the apples.

The five kids even played with him once they were done eating. It didn’t take long for them to get close to each

other.

At Dellmoor, Arissa slept for a few more hours before she finally woke up.

When she was up, her IV drip treatment was finally done.

This time, she felt rather refreshed.

Seeing that Benjamin was not around, she got up and quickly went to wash her face and fix her hair, preparing to

leave.

However, once she reached the door, the bodyguards blocked her way.

“Please go back in, Ms. York.”
