Chapter 197 I Will Explain To The Chief
If examined closely, the little guy’s dirty face actually looked delicate.
His pupils were black, and his gaze was filled with determination.
The young man who had shouted at him earlier caught up with him.
“Danny, let’s go and find the woman and the kids. They must still be nearby. If she’s really a trafficker, let’s inform the police to get the money!”
Danny knitted his brows. “Where should we look?”
Without knowing why, Danny hesitated.
They were laughing so happily. She looks like their mom. How could she be a trafficker?
Regardless, he wasn’t sure. What if she’s a bad person? Those kids will be in danger.
The young man scratched the back of his head, not knowing where to start looking. “Should we go now? We can secretly ask the kids whether they were kidnapped or not!”
“It will be dangerous. I still need to earn money!”
Danny didn’t want to do things that he was not confident in.
He would have no income today if he were to do it.
“Right. We will go after earning money!”
The children stopped thinking about catching the trafficker once they started their work.
They carried the heavy ores down the hill just to earn some money for a living.
Naturally, Arissa didn’t know that she was being targeted. She even made a homecooked meal with the kids.
The five little kids enjoyed their meal, especially the snails.
“Mommy, this is so good!”
“I like the cheesy one the most!”
“Mommy, you’re the best! Every dish is so tasty!”
“Mommy, I love you!”
“Mommy, I love you too!”
The myriad of compliments made Arissa feel satisfied.
She said with a smile, “Don’t talk while eating!”
The five kids shrugged as they returned a smile, turning to enjoy their meal.
Bradley noticed that someone was passing by outside.
He exchanged looks with Arissa.
Then, he went out to investigate.
Arissa went silent for a while, and the kids didn’t make any noises too.
Soon, Bradley was back.
“Who’s that?” asked Arissa.
“It was the village chief. He was asking about our situation.”
Arissa nodded. “Does he suspect us?”
“It seems that he did not. I told him that I was eating and invited him to come inside, but he didn’t want to intrude. Anyway, you didn’t register your name here, so he will not find out!”
Bradley was confident.
Arissa frowned and thought for a little while. We suddenly moved here. It’s fine if we stay for one or two days. However, we will surely attract attention if we live here longer.
“Bradley, invite the chief to our house tonight. After all, we have to live here for a while.”
“Wouldn’t we be discovered, then? He must have watched TV too!” Bradley was not fond of the idea.
Every media was broadcasting the news that Arissa had kidnapped children. No matter where they go, they would look suspicious with the five kids.
“Boss, should I bring them away for the time being? The five kids are too noticeable.”
“No, I want to stay with Mommy!”
The kids immediately protested.
Arissa didn’t want to be away from the kids too. “I will explain everything to the chief. We shall find another way out if that doesn’t work.”
She couldn’t avoid Benjamin forever.
Thinking back, she wondered why she decided to run away with the five kids.
I didn’t need to come all the way here.
“Should I talk to him later, then?” Bradley heeded.
Arissa nodded and said, “You can talk to him, or we can visit him!”
“Sure! Oh, you kids have finished the steak? I haven’t even started eating!”
“Haha! No, we have hidden it.”
The five kids were having fun.
Oliver took out the steak that he had hidden under the table.
Arissa was amused. They are so naughty.
