Chapter 177 You Will Regret This
Gavin’s face was red with anger as he narrated the events to her.
“Mommy, he asked me to swap places with Zachary at night. He wanted to bring Zachary and the rest back to the Graham family, so he asked me to not tell you the truth. Mommy, I will never help him again! I hate him!”
Arissa was taken aback by his outburst. She hugged him and said, “Sweetheart, are you all right?”
“He didn’t want me! I hate him!”
This child had feelings for Benjamin. Not so long ago, he was defending his actions. When did he develop such hatred for Benjamin?
Arissa looked at Zachary. The little boy avoided her eye contact and remained silent.
She asked gently, “Tell Mommy what happened. Why do you hate Daddy?”
“Mommy, he only cares about that woman! He doesn’t even care about me!” Gavin bawled loudly in her arms.
Arissa was stunned.
My child is hurt by Benjamin’s treatment of Danna?
“What did you see?” Arissa rubbed circles on his back, soothing the crying child.
“Once he heard that Danna was in trouble, he ran right out! He cares so much about that evil woman. I hate him! I don’t want him anymore. I just want to be with you, Mommy!”
Gavin tightened his hug as he spoke.
At this point, Arissa’s eyes were puffy with tears. “There, there. Don’t cry anymore. Stay with Mommy. I will always be with you!”
If Benjamin wants to be with Danna, then let them be together! I can always raise my kids by myself.
Arissa was determined not to let Benjamin hurt her kids anymore.
However, she knew that the most important thing for them then was to find a place to hide. Otherwise, with Benjamin’s capabilities, they would be defeated.
“Mommy, let’s leave this place, okay?” Gavin’s tear-stricken face gazed up at her pitifully.
Arissa could not bring herself to reject his request. Hence, she nodded and said, “Yes, let’s all leave.”
She wiped the tears off Gavin’s face before asking Bradley to bring them to Lightspring.
Gavin sniffled. Then, a determined gaze flashed across his eyes.
Hmph! Benjamin, you will regret this! We don’t need you anymore.
At the same time, Benjamin frowned as he stared at his declined phone call.
He tried once more, but the phone was turned off.
Benjamin’s face darkened as he emitted a chilling aura.
“Mr. Graham, have you managed to contact Gavin?”
Ethen watched Benjamin’s reaction carefully. The latter shot him a cold glance, sending shivers down his spine.
“That woman turned off her phone. Find out where she is this instant!”
“Yes!” Ethen was frightened. Why did Ms. York have to turn off her phone?
Even after some effort, Ethen was still unable to locate her.
“Mr. Graham, I can’t locate her…” Ethen’s forehead was covered in a cold sweat as he reported the bad news to Benjamin. However, he tried his best to reassure his employer. “I’m sure Gavin is safe with Ms. York.”
Benjamin narrowed his eyes. What game are you playing now, Arissa?
“Is the report out?” Benjamin’s eyes remained steely.
“It just says here that a lady had hired them. They did not reveal any address…”
Benjamin boomed, “Well, then use other methods to make them talk!”
Ethen rushed to get the task done. Within ten minutes, he got the information he needed.
“Mr. Graham, they say that the woman is in Olswick. We have located her on the satellites. She’s heading out of the city.”
Upon hearing that, Benjamin’s eyes flickered.
Trying to escape?
“Gather some of our men to stop her. Don’t let her leave!”
Kidnapping my son? You will wish you were never born!
“Find out who else she has made contact with! Leave no stones unturned!”
“Roger that!”
Ethen got into the car. He made a call to pass down the orders before continuing his investigation.
Meanwhile, in Bradley’s car, the group was about to hit the highway toward Lightspring when Arissa remembered something.
“Bradley, don’t take the highway. Use the small roads.”
“Is something wrong, Boss?”
Bradley looked at Arissa with concern through the rearview mirror.
“It won’t be easy for us to leave with the two people we’re bringing along. Find a secluded area. We’ll teach them a lesson first.”
