Chapter 380 Keep It Low

“Could it be that Daddy is bullying Mommy?” Jesse furrowed her brows and made her guess.

Hearing that, the kids exchanged glances with one another.

“I don’t think so!” Gavin answered softly.

He wasn’t defending Benjamin per se, but he definitely knew Benjamin better. “If Mommy was being bullied, they

wouldn’t be talking to each other nicely in the study room just now.”

Zachary and the rest agreed. “Then it has to be something else!”

Zachary knitted his brows because he was sure Arissa was hiding something from them.

Right then, Jasper thought of something they could do. “Should we go to the back and eavesdrop?”

Oliver’s eyes lit up and reminded Zachary, “Since Mommy and Daddy didn’t want us to hear, we’ll surely get

punished if we get caught!”

“We just have to be careful. If you’re scared, I’ll go on my own!” Jasper glanced at them before getting up and

running down the stairs.

Right then, Zachary and Gavin shared a look.

“I’m going as well!”

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.

“Wait for me! I’m going too!” Oliver followed suit.

“Wait for me!” Jesse exclaimed. Before Jesse could even get up, the boys were already far ahead.

Oliver turned around toward Jesse and instructed, “You don’t have to go. Stay here and keep an eye on the

situation for us.”

“Oh, okay!” Jesse nodded and urged, “Please don’t get caught!”

The four boys ran toward the balcony behind the study and leaned in.

Since the curtains weren’t 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.

“It seems like Mommy is crying!” Jasper frowned and told his brothers softly.

Oliver nodded in agreement. “Why is Mommy crying? I can’t hear what they’re talking about!”

Since the balcony door to the study room was shut and their parents were far away from the door, they couldn’t

hear their conversation.

Gavin’s and Zachary’s 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 Benjamin’s 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.

“Benjamin, could you get more people to look for the child? I’m afraid that Danna might do something to him.”

Arissa broke the silence.

Benjamin looked at her worried expression intently before caressing her hair. “Okay. I’ll make the arrangements

right away.”

With that, Benjamin whipped out his phone and made a call.

Arissa pulled the hem of his shirt and reminded softly, “It’s better to search in secret.”

Indeed, if they didn’t keep it low, they might alert the perpetrators.

“Okay!” Benjamin threw her a glance before instructing the person on the phone. “Use Gavin’s photo to search.

See if there are records on the police’s system and get people from different areas to search secretively.”

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, Benjamin’s eyes lit up when he thought of something. “Continue the search advertisement on the major

media outlets. A reward is in place for whoever finds the kid!”

Arissa was startled upon hearing that. Oh, right! Why didn’t I think of that? We can make use of that advertisement

again. Besides, Danna’s men won’t realize it that easily. Even if they do, the most they could do is just hide. We’ll

definitely have a lead if someone in the area has seen the child.

Although Arissa was excited, she was still worried about the child’s safety.

She waited for Benjamin to end his call before asking him anxiously, “What if they’re alerted? Will they harm our

son?”

Benjamin touched her head gently and said, “Since there’s a reward, those people won’t dare to act rashly.”
