Chapter 640 Not Willing To Let You Work

 

Arissa’s eyes flitted toward him, and she chuckled. “We’re done. Take a seat over there. I’m sure you’re tired after the run earlier.”

 

Touched, Ethen whispered, “Mr. Graham can’t bear to see you slave away, so please let me do this instead. Otherwise, he’s going to deduct all my bonuses!”

“Bradley, were you at the village to find out more news when we arrived earlier?”

Bradley blinked in shock at her sudden question.

“Boss, I’ve just reached when you came. I haven’t even asked anything from anyone yet. I reached this place last night, and as the villagers all went to bed earlier, I met no one. So, I ended up coming back here to clean up the place instead.”

 

The truth was that Bradley had already found out quite a bit about the matter. However, he was afraid of breaking Arissa’s heart, and that was why he told her nothing yet.

Bradley recalled that the boy was among the children when he left earlier, and the thought of that was already making his heart ache.

If Arissa were to find out that Tim had been living such a difficult life, her heart might just break.

Arissa mulled over Bradley’s words and nodded.

Arissa could sense that the boy was hiding something from her.
