The More the Merrier Chapter 437

Chapter 437 Did Not Sleep The Whole Night

After a minute, the results was out.

Seeing the authentication results, Ethen was practically overflowing with excitement.

“Mr. Graham, the results are out! It’s a ninety-one percent match!”

That was a considerably high similarity index.

Benjamin’s eyes lit up.

“Arrange more men to sweep the place!”

“Roger that!” Ethen promptly gathered more men to continue the search.

Stepping out of the car, Benjamin stood along the streets in the unfamiliar village. There was barely anyone within his line of vision.

He strode toward the direction of the police station.

On the other side, at Yaleview, Arissa did not sleep the entire night either. She had been searching for leads regarding her missing child and simultaneously tracking Benjamin’s movements.

Realizing that Benjamin was at Rutaceae Village, she was perplexed.

Why is he there? Could it be that he has found leads about our child?

Her eyes brightened up at that thought, and immediately, she made a call to Benjamin.

Benjamin’s phone rang just as he arrived at the police station.

He stilled. Why is she calling at this hour?

After a brief hesitation, he answered the call.

“Benjamin!” Arissa exclaimed over the phone.

“Yes? What is it that you’re calling me so early?”

Benjamin scrunched his brows. Don’t tell me she didn’t sleep for the whole night?

“W-Where did you go?” As soon as Arissa blurted out those words, a surge of embarrassment washed over her as it seemed almost like she was checking on him.

She quickly changed her stance and said, “You didn’t come home. What are you so busy with?”

Benjamin put one hand in his pocket and curled the corners of his lips into a satisfied smile.

“Are you concerned about me?”

Arissa pursed her lips and brushed him off with another question. “Where are you now?”

“I’m away on a business trip, so I won’t be back that soon.”

Although Benjamin did not update her on where he was, she knew well about his whereabouts.

“Oh,” she murmured in acknowledgement.

How dare he still lie to me?

“Did you manage to find some clues about the child?” she quickly asked.

“Not yet.”

He surveyed the surroundings, intending to tell her after finding Tim.

Arissa frowned and shot him another question.

“The footage before Danna brought Gavin to look for you; were you the one who deleted it?”

A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes at once. Little did he expect her investigation to progress so quickly.

“No,” he denied.

Indeed, he was not the one who deleted it, but Ethen.

Arissa was almost confident he was the culprit, yet the man denied it so straightforwardly that it caught her slightly off guard.

Was it really not him?

“Did you not sleep last night?” The man’s deep voice, which contained a trace of concern, sounded from the other end of the call.

“I did. I just woke up a while ago,” Arissa casually answered. “Anyway, that’s all for now. I’m hanging up now.”

With that, she hung up promptly but remained seated, unable to grasp the entire situation.

If it wasn’t Benjamin, then who could it be? Or was he lying just now?

A turmoil of emotions weighed down upon her.

Meanwhile, Benjamin tucked his phone away and headed into the superintendent’s office.

Learning that Tim was there to file a police report, especially that it was against Raphael for abusing Mary and him, the intimidating look on Benjamin’s face grew intense, and a spine-chilling malicious glint flashed in his eyes.

All the others present dared not go near.

They thought the man would do something, but it turned out otherwise.

“Mr. Graham, we haven’t found the boy. There’s no news from the hotel and hospital!” Ethen had made his way over, and the moment he caught sight of Benjamin walking out of the police station, he rushed forward to report their search progress.

Benjamin’s expression turned grim. “I’ve exchanged a brief greeting with them. They’ll be dispatching some men to lock down the place before searching. Go and liaise with them.”

He did not bring enough men over to the village this round. Therefore, he had to rely on the locals for help.

“Got it!”

Just as Ethen was about to step in, Benjamin stopped him and ordered coldly, “Teach Raphael a lesson for me. And make sure he stays in there!”

Ethen nodded in reply and sped off the make the necessary arrangements.

With his eyes fixed on the gradually increasing crowd along the streets in the village, Benjamin’s eyebrows drew together.

Where could that kid have gone?

At the same time, Tim spotted some bodyguards combing the area looking for someone. Their aggressive and dour appearances instantly convinced him that they were just like Raphael.

What further reinforced his perception was when he vaguely heard those men questioning the public about Mary and his whereabouts. Immense astonishment engulfed him as he thought they were acting under Raphael’s commands.

Without delay, he sped to find the nurses and patients who had seen him before.
