You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Chapter 446 The Child Is Still Alive

Benjamin was still searching for the missing child in the village when he got the phone call. “Hey, Dad.”

“Where are you right now?”

“I’m in Rutaceae Village. Is something the matter, Dad?” Benjamin replied. Darius exchanged glances with Shaun before saying, “Issa fainted earlier.”

“What happened to her?” Benjamin raised his voice out of concern.

“S-She found out about what happened to the child… T-The shock and sadness proved too much for her to bear…” Darius replied in a shaky voice as he tried to stop himself from sobbing.

Benjamin frowned upon hearing that. But I already had someone erase the surveillance camera footage, so how did she find out?

“How is she now, Dad?” he asked. “She’s crying together with the kids,” Darius replied worriedly. “Put her on the phone,” Benjamin urged him.

Figuring that Benjamin would do a better job at comforting Arissa, Darius did as told and handed the phone over to her. “Issa, Benjamin wants to talk to you.”
