Chapter 152 An Exchange

“No. I’ll pass.”

Arissa was worried, for she had not seen the other children since the previous day.

Benjamin turned to her. “Though those people have been caught, that doesn’t mean you’re safe. Aren’t

you afraid of endangering your children?”

Benjamin’s voice was stern at the last sentence. Until then, the stubborn woman still refused to tell him

the truth, and Benjamin could not help wondering if she was planning to hide the truth from him forever.

Arissa was less worried about Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper. However, she was extremely concerned

about Jesse as the little girl was the most clingy one among all of Arissa’s children.

After a few days, the girl would lose it.

Noticing the woman was struggling to come to a decision, Benjamin suggested, “If you’re worried about

your children, you can fetch them over. Otherwise, I’ll have to compensate you for work injury if anything

bad happens to you.”

Arissa’s mouth quivered before she uttered, “Don’t worry, Mr. Graham. Even if anything happens to me,

it’s none of the company’s business.”

“Are you sure your family members are fine with that?”

Benjamin stared at her firmly. Though he seemed expressionless, he was utterly serious.

Arissa was stunned. Is he implying that the children will seek compensation from him? That’s rather

amusing.



She cleared her throat and remained firm in her decision. “No thanks. I’m afraid my children will disturb

you.”

It’s better not to let them meet for now. I’ll just have to part with them for a few days. It’s no big deal.

Benjamin’s face darkened upon hearing that.

Arissa was clueless about how she irritated the man, and she swallowed upon noticing the man’s icy-

cold aura.

She was about to voice her intention of not staying at Benjamin’s place when she saw how dark his face

was. Hence, she ended up choking back her words.

Upon reaching the school, Arissa was about to exit the car when Benjamin stopped her.

“Stay in the car.”

With that said, Benjamin carried Gavin and alighted from the vehicle without waiting for a response.

“I…”

Arissa wanted to tag along with the hope of meeting her four children.

However, Benjamin shot her a glare. “Stay!”

He took Gavin’s bag and the meal that Arissa had packed.

“Bye, Mommy!”

“Bye, Sweetheart!”

Arissa smiled and waved at the boy.



After helping Gavin put on his bag, Benjamin walked him to the school entrance with a lunchbox in hand.

“Daddy, don’t get angry at Mommy!” Gavin tugged at his father’s pants as he pleaded.

Benjamin stared at his son. When he handed the lunchbox over, the latter held it tightly in his arms.

“Exchange with Zachary tonight.”

Gavin stared at Benjamin with his eyes shot wide, keeping his guard up.

“What are you up to, Daddy?”

“Daddy has never met him before, so I want to see him!”

Benjamin patted his son’s head gently.

After staring at the man for a moment, Gavin finally nodded and agreed, “All right. I’ll talk to him about it,

but I can’t promise he’ll agree!”

If it was Oliver, he would agree without haste. Zachary, on the other hand, was tougher to convince.

Benjamin raised his eyebrows and pondered to himself. He won’t disagree, for his mother is right here.

“Okay, go on in.”

Gavin nodded. “Goodbye, Daddy!”

Honestly, he was pretty excited, for Benjamin rarely sent him to school. Moreover, his mother was

tagging along too.

After waving at the car, he entered the school.



Benjamin watched the boy for a moment before returning to the car.

“Mr. Graham, why didn’t you let me exit the car earlier?” Arissa was bewildered by the man.

Benjamin merely cast a quick glance at her before telling the driver, “Head to the office.”

His actions rendered Arissa speechless.

When she gazed out of the car’s window, she was hoping to see the few familiar figures. However, they

were nowhere to be found, and Arissa could not help but feel let down. At the same time, she was

slightly relieved Benjamin did not encounter them.

After shifting her attention away from the window, her heart skipped a beat as she noticed a pair of dull

eyes staring sharply at her.

“It’s inappropriate for you to send him to the school right now.”

Arissa nodded in understanding. “I’ll be careful next time.”

After staring at her for a moment, Benjamin averted his gaze and looked straight ahead.

Arissa glanced at the man before shifting her gaze toward the window once more.

Suddenly, a man’s voice rang out.
