Chapter 202 Negotiating With Dad
Arissa’s heart pounded heavily from the shock.
When did Benjamin get my WhatsApp? Could it be during the time he took my phone to enter his number? Did I expose myself to him the second I went online?
She calmed herself down and analyzed the situation. It shouldn’t be the case since the application will not display the online status.
It must be a coincidence. It should be!
She turned on the application again and checked on the timestamp of the message. The record showed yesterday’s date.
Just as she let out a sigh of relief, she received another message from Benjamin.
Benjamin texted: Arissa, reply to me by today or bear the consequences!
Arissa was rendered speechless. Flustered by the message, she closed the application immediately.
Benjamin knows I was online?
“Mommy, what’s the matter?” asked Gavin as he approached when he saw Arissa seemingly agitated.
Arissa held Gavin into her arms and said, “I’m fine. I opened WhatsApp, and your daddy suddenly sent me a message.”
Gavin blinked his eyes at Arissa. “What did he say to you?”
“He asked of my whereabouts—that’s all,” replied Arissa as she softly rubbed Gavin’s head. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
“I needed to pee!”
Arissa smiled at him. “Off to sleep now. I still have work to do!”
Gavin nodded. “Mommy, you should take a rest too. Don’t work too much!”
“I promise I will go to sleep once I finish my work. Off you go now,” assured Arissa.
She kissed Gavin on his cheek. Blushing from his happiness, he kissed her back and returned to his room.
As Gavin shut the door, he silently took out his phone and sat at the corner of his bed with a frown. Should I contact Daddy? It won’t be long until they find this place.
Gavin was hesitant and indecisive for a while. However, when he recalled Benjamin caring about Danna, he became frustrated and decided to drop the idea.
At that moment, Zachary woke up and saw Gavin in a daze while holding his phone.
He approached Gavin. “What are you doing?”
Gavin turned around and stared at Zachary.
Zachary furrowed, and the same thought came to his mind. “Are you planning to contact Benjamin?”
“Mommy opened her WhatsApp, and I’m not sure if we were discovered,” Gavin explained the situation to Zachary.
“He has Mommy’s WhatsApp?” Zachary was surprised for a moment before remembering that Arissa had worked in Benjamin’s company, so it was normal for him to have her WhatsApp.
Gavin nodded as his eyes gleamed. “I was thinking since they will discover us sooner or later, why don’t we take the initiative and reveal ourselves instead?”
Zachary stared at Gavin, expecting him to finish his idea. “And then what?”
He sat down beside Gavin and glanced at the SIM card in his hand.
“Didn’t he put up a reward for us? We could request for a higher reward!” explained Gavin.
Zachary listened to Gavin’s idea and giggled. “If Benjamin learned that his son extorted him, he would blow his top off!”
“I’ll negotiate the terms with him personally!” stated Gavin.
“What if he refuses to accept your terms?” asked Zachary in awe.
“He won’t!” assured Gavin.
They gave each other a thumbs up in agreement.
“Shall we do it now?” asked Gavin.
Zachary remained silent, and Gavin took that as a sign of approval. He turned on the GPS jammer and inserted the SIM card into the phone.
“What is this application that you are using?” Zachary was curious as he watched Gavin.
“This is a GPS jammer application that I created. It can reposition my location to other places for a certain amount of time without being discovered. It is incomplete for now, so we can’t use it for too long,” explained Gavin.
Gavin sent the message to Benjamin after he summed up his explanation.
Zachary was shocked and gasped after he saw the message. “Isn’t that too much to ask for?”
“Nope! He is very rich!” Gavin retorted and sent the message.
He texted: Send me ten billion, and I will tell you our location.
The kids waited patiently for Benjamin’s reply.
