Chapter 380 Keep It Low âCould it be that Daddy is bullying Mommy?â Jesse furrowed her brows and made her guess.
Hearing that, the kids exchanged glances with one another.
âI donât think so!â Gavin answered softly.
He wasnât defending Benjamin per se, but he definitely knew Benjamin better. âIf Mommy was being bullied, they wouldnât be talking to each other nicely in the study room just now.â
Zachary and the rest agreed. âThen it has to be something else!â
Zachary knitted his brows because he was sure Arissa was hiding something from them.
Right then, Jasper thought of something they could do. âShould we go to the back and eavesdrop?â
Oliverâs eyes lit up and reminded Zachary, âSince Mommy and Daddy didnât want us to hear, weâll surely get punished if we get caught!â
âWe just have to be careful. If youâre scared, Iâll go on my own!â Jasper glanced at them before getting up and running down the stairs.
Right then, Zachary and Gavin shared a look.
âIâm going as well!â
Zachary went along because not only was he worried about Arissa, but he really wanted to know what they were talking about in the study room.
Gavin ran after them as well.
âWait for me! Iâm going too!â Oliver followed suit.
âWait for me!â Jesse exclaimed. Before Jesse could even get up, the boys were already far ahead.
Oliver turned around toward Jesse and instructed, âYou donât have to go. Stay here and keep an eye on the situation for us.â
âOh, okay!â Jesse nodded and urged, âPlease donât get caught!â
The four boys ran toward the balcony behind the study and leaned in.
Since the curtains werenât drawn, they could clearly see the people inside the room.
The boys widened their eyes in shock when they saw Benjamin hugging Arissa.
At that moment, their impression of Benjamin improved.
âIt seems like Mommy is crying!â Jasper frowned and told his brothers softly.
Oliver nodded in agreement. âWhy is Mommy crying? I canât hear what theyâre talking about!â
Since the balcony door to the study room was shut and their parents were far away from the door, they couldnât hear their conversation.
Gavinâs and Zacharyâs brows furrowed tightly as they were watching the movements in the room intently.
Arissa had no idea the kids were eavesdropping at that point. She regained her composure and was embarrassed when realized she was in Benjaminâs arms.
A blush crept up her ears, and they burned with embarrassment.
She then instantly pulled herself away from his embrace and avoided eye contact.
âBenjamin, could you get more people to look for the child? Iâm afraid that Danna might do something to him.â Arissa broke the silence.
Benjamin looked at her worried expression intently before caressing her hair. âOkay. Iâll make the arrangements right away.â
With that, Benjamin whipped out his phone and made a call.
Arissa pulled the hem of his shirt and reminded softly, âItâs better to search in secret.â
Indeed, if they didnât keep it low, they might alert the perpetrators.
âOkay!â Benjamin threw her a glance before instructing the person on the phone. âUse Gavinâs photo to search. See if there are records on the policeâs system and get people from different areas to search secretively.â
While listening to Benjamin giving the instruction, Arissa was touched when she saw the concerned expression on his face. Benjamin is a good father, after all. He cares for the kids.
Suddenly, Benjaminâs eyes lit up when he thought of something. âContinue the search advertisement on the major media outlets. A reward is in place for whoever finds the kid!â
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 379 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You Arissa was startled upon hearing that. Oh, right! Why didnât I think of that? We can make use of that advertisement again. Besides, Dannaâs men wonât realize it that easily. Even if they do, the most they could do is just hide. Weâll definitely have a lead if someone in the area has seen the child.
Although Arissa was excited, she was still worried about the childâs safety.
She waited for Benjamin to end his call before asking him anxiously, âWhat if theyâre alerted? Will they harm our son?â
Benjamin touched her head gently and said, âSince thereâs a reward, those people wonât dare to act rashly.â
