Ethen's distress was written all over his face, and he had downed a few cups of coffee.
Jack's gaze was wandering all over Ethen's body, and his amusement of Ethen's troubled state was
palpable. “So there really are things in life that will stump you.”
Ethen rolled his eyes in response and hissed, “Stop gloating. You're involved in this too. If Mr. Graham
dumps me on an abandoned island, you're coming with me!”
Jack narrowed his eyes.
Are you insane?
He then dropped his smile and took his time enjoying the snacks and coffee in the air-conditioned room
instead.
Checking his watch, Ethen noticed that it was almost time for the children's classes to end, so he called
Gavin.
“Hey there, Gavin.” Ethen's over-friendly tone made goosebumps rise on Jack's arms.
“What's the matter, Mr. Frank? Anything I can help you with?” came Gavin's youthful yet mature voice.
Ethen let out a wry chuckle before explaining, “So, here's the thing. Your daddy's urging me to get
results in the investigation, so if I don't tell him soon, I'll be banished to an abandoned island. Your
daddy even lost his temper at me earlier.”
Ethen was truly stumped, for he could not offend either party.
Gavin blinked a few times before noting certain important points about Ethen's speech. “Why did my
daddy lose his temper at you?”
Ethen sighed. Alas, he had no idea why Benjamin flew into a rage too.
“Maybe he was upset about something when he was with your mommy.”
“No way!” Gavin responded in certainty, for Arissa had also subtly asked them about this matter.
Therefore, evidently, their father was upset about something else. Yet, no one knew what he was upset
about.
In the end, Gavin guessed that Julian and the others had something to do with this.
“Daddy must be mad with those bad people!”
“Who?” Ethen promptly asked, still unable to come to the same conclusion as Gavin.
“Who else? I can't believe you can't think of who it is despite working for Daddy for so long. No wonder
Daddy's angry with you.”
Ethen scratched his nose sheepishly upon hearing that before hesitantly muttering, “Julian and the
others?”
“Something like that.” Gavin scoffed.
Julian means nothing and is no threat to Daddy. Daddy doesn't care about them. They probably just
disgusted him.
“Could it be that old lady?” Ethen asked.
He wondered how he could have forgotten about her. Julian was getting treated in the hospital, and
that old lady from the Graham family would surely visit him. Therefore, she had to have argued with
Benjamin.
“I'm glad you're not that stupid,” Gavin roasted.
Ethen's lips twitched when he realized the boy was verbally attacking him again.
He then headed straight to the topic by saying, “Gavin, I'm going to tell your daddy the truth, okay?
Think of this as a favor. It's hard on me too. I can't let your daddy find out that I've been helping you
hide this from him. We'll all have a hard time if he finds out about this, you know?”
Gavin chuckled when he heard how miserable Ethen sounded, but his expression remained the same.
Right then, Zachary asked, “Mr. Frank, how long did he give you?”
“An hour. There is less than half an hour left,” came Ethen's weak reply.
If the children did not agree with it, he would not be able to report back to Benjamin.
“Will Daddy punish us if he finds out we're behind this?” Zachary cautiously asked.
At that, Ethen swiftly consoled, “No, Mr. Graham will surely be proud of you. He won't punish you. If
you don't believe me, you can ask Gavin about it.”
“But Gavin said that Daddy's scary when he's mad. He'll hit his bottom.”
And he once made Gavin stand in the corner as punishment too!
The smart Zachary did not believe Ethen at all.
Ethen gloomily answered, “That's how he shows his love. He'll only do it to put on a show. He won't be
harsh with his punishment.”
There's no way the boys can withstand severe punishment anyway.
“Are you sure?” Zachary asked again.
