Gavin called Arissa, only to find that her phone was switched off. He glanced at those around him and
said, “Mommy's phone has been switched off.”
“Try calling your father, then,” Victor suggested, smiling at the child expectantly.
Gavin called Benjamin, who picked up after the first ring.
“What is it?” Benjamin asked as soon as he picked up, though his voice was barely above a whisper.
Finding this odd, Gavin asked curiously, “Daddy, why are you being so quiet? Is Mommy there?”
Benjamin did not want to wake Arissa, so he took the call outside the hospital room. “Your mother's
sleeping. Why are you looking for her?” he asked in his normal voice after he had closed the door
behind him.
“Old Mr. Watts would like us to stay over for the night, is that okay?” Gavin asked. He could not seek
permission from Arissa now, so he would have to settle for Benjamin's approval instead.
Benjamin stood in the corridor as he considered this. He had no objection to his children sleeping over
at Victor's place. “Do all of you want to stay over at the Watts residence?”
Gavin beamed. “Yeah. Besides, even if we go back home, you and Mommy won't be there. We figured
we'd stay here instead. Everyone else is okay with it, and this way, you and Mommy won't have to
worry about us.”
Benjamin quirked a brow. “I'm assuming none of you have a spare change of clothes. Edwin's probably
at Yaleview now. Give him a call and have him send your clothes over.”
“Got it, Daddy. Take good care of Mommy at the hospital. We'll visit her tomorrow!” Gavin said,
sounding much older than his actual age. “I'll take good care of the other kids, too.”
“Don't make trouble while you're at the Watts residence, all right? Be good and don't stay up past your
bedtime,” Benjamin reminded.
Following that, Benjamin hung up and gave Edwin a call, telling him to send the kids' clothes over. He
also told Edwin to stay over at the Watts residence to keep an eye on the kids. Having done all this, he
headed back into the room.
Arissa was sound asleep. In the quietude of the room, Benjamin went through paperwork while waiting
for Shaun to return.
The moment Shaun arrived at the hospital, he made a beeline for Arissa's room without changing
clothes. “Boss, did you need something?” he asked as soon as he reached the door.
Benjamin put up a hand as though in greeting, then rose to go out of the room. He closed the door
behind him and said to Shaun, “Thanks for coming back. I need you to watch Arissa for me while I
straighten out some matters at the police station.”
Shaun understood what Benjamin was going to do. Nodding, he replied, “Leave this to me.”
Benjamin checked the time. The sooner he wrapped things up at the police station, the sooner he could
come back. With that in mind, he hurried off to the police station with Ethen in tow.
It did not take long for the dozen or so kidnappers from the other day to be brought out of the detention
center. Thinking that their boss had bailed them out, the men left the center happily.
However, the grins were wiped off their faces when they saw Benjamin and Ethen waiting for them
outside.
“What do you guys want now?” one of the men asked, filled with dread.
They were in a much more dangerous position now than they had been back at the police station.
“Mr. Graham would like you to clarify a couple of things,” Ethen said curtly, cracking his knuckles as if
to warn the men to stay in line.
The men's leader eyed Ethen and Benjamin warily. “W-What do you want to know?”
“Who do you work for?” Ethen cut to the chase.
“We were hired by Mr. Julian,” the leader answered but did not elaborate any further.
Benjamin narrowed his eyes, then jerked his chin in the direction of the men. Seeing this, Ethen
immediately grabbed the leader's shirt and pulled it aside, revealing the scorpion tattooed on the man's
chest.
“Mr. Graham, these men work for Justin!” Ethen concluded as he shoved the man away in disgust.
Now that his cover was blown, the man whose shirt had been grabbed faltered. He stared at Ethen and
Benjamin in horror. That guy moved so quickly that I couldn't even dodge him!
A dark look came into Benjamin's eyes as he surveyed the men before him. Finally, his menacing gaze
fell on a man with distinct features.
“You touched my wife.” Benjamin sounded more like he was stating a fact than making an accusation.
When the man in question sensed the murderous rage burning behind Benjamin's obsidian eyes, he
shuddered.
“M-Mr. Graham, I would never be so bold as to do something like that!” What else could he do but
deny?
