Chapter 375 What Did Danna Tell You

Edwin took a double look when he saw Benjamin returning home with Arissa in his arms.

“Mr. Graham, have you eaten lunch?”

“Yes, we have, but you can prepare some afternoon tea. I’ll ask Arissa to eat when she wakes up,” Benjamin softly

instructed before carrying Arissa to the bedroom.

After he gently placed her on the bed, he carefully removed the sweater she wore and covered her with a blanket.

At that moment, her phone rang.

Benjamin quickly cut the call and walked out to return the children’s call.

“Mommy!”

Jesse’s sweet voice sounded at the end of the line.

At that moment, Benjamin wondered if it was a girl’s voice.

“Your mother is sleeping.”

“Oh?”

Jesse shouted in surprise. Then, she angrily stated, “It isn’t Mommy on the phone! Jasper, you can have it!”

“Who is it?”

Jasper’s voice sounded.

Before Jesse could reply, Benjamin interrupted, “It’s Daddy.”

“Eh?”

In exasperation, Jasper handed over the phone to Oliver. “Here, Oliver!”

“I don’t want it. Zachary can have the phone!”

Oliver threw the phone to Zachary.

Hearing how the children passed the phone around like a hot piece of iron, Benjamin was speechless.

Why do they dislike me so much?

In the end, Zachary did not want to talk to Benjamin either. Therefore, the phone ended up in Gavin’s hand.

At first, Benjamin assumed that Gavin, who he brought up, would talk to him. Yet, to his disappointment, the call

ended without any warning.



Before the call ended, he also heard Gavin whine, “I don’t want to talk to him!”

Benjamin’s face fell.

Afraid that the children would call again while Arissa was asleep, Benjamin kept her phone with him in his study.

After a short while, Arissa’s phone rang again, and it was from Bradley.

Benjamin picked it up.

“Boss, I have made the necessary arrangements. Please rest well. If there is any news, I’ll let you know!”

Immediately, Benjamin narrowed his eyes and interrogated, “What did you have to do?”

Silence ensued.

Holy shit! Why did Mr. Graham pick up Boss’ phone? This is terrifying!

Seconds later, Bradley put down the phone without answering Benjamin’s question.

Benjamin frowned and felt a surging wave of rage.

Why does everyone like to end the call when they hear my voice? Am I that scary?

Gritting his teeth, he made another call. “Go check out what Danna told Arissa.”

Half an hour, he received a reply.

“The prison guard is on vacation, and I can’t contact him now.”

Benjamin was disappointed to hear that, but he was determined to find out what had happened. “Continue to phone

him.”

If he could not find out what happened by himself, he would have to confront Arissa.

With that in mind, he stood up and headed up the stairs. However, Arissa was still asleep.

Therefore, he returned to the study to continue working.

When Arissa woke up, she looked at the clock to realize that her children had already finished school.

She hurriedly got up to wash her face before changing her clothes. Then, she rushed down the stairs.

Before she could step out the door, she heard someone asking, “Where are you going?”

Arissa stopped in her tracks. Turning around, she saw Benjamin staring at her.

“I am heading to school to pick the children up. They have already finished their classes.”

“Edwin already left to do that,” Benjamin informed her and gestured for her to come back in.



“When did Edwin leave for school?”

Arissa thought she could still make it on time if she rushed to the school now.

To her dismay, Benjamin raised his brows and replied, “Edwin left about half an hour.”

Arissa’s shoulders slumped.

It means that Edwin and the children are probably on their way back.

Arissa felt upset for breaking another promise. This morning, she had agreed to pick the children up from school.

“Come to the study with me,” Benjamin stated while heading toward the study.

Arissa tilted her head in confusion but still followed behind him.

“What’s the matter?”

Arissa impatiently asked him, with her mind still on her children.

Scanning Arissa from head to toe, Benjamin then pointed to the snacks on the table.

“Eat these.”

Did he call me in here to make me eat? Arissa glanced at him suspiciously.

Regardless, she sat down and picked up a piece of pastry to munch on. It was delicious, so she could not resist

helping herself to a few more.

“What did Danna tell you?”
