Chapter 429 Are You Sure That The Child Is Dead
Raphael avoided eye contact with them and simply replied, “Oh, nothing. I was talking about the rats.”
The villagers scanned around the house, but they could not find both Mary and Tim. “Where are your mother and
the boy?” they asked curiously.
“How would I know? They were here just a moment ago. Must have gone pissing somewhere,” Raphael answered
impatiently.
Everyone cast a contemptuous glance at him. Nobody liked his awful attitude.
Since Mary and Tim were not there, the villagers left after a short while.
Despite searching for the duo everywhere, Raphael was furious that he could not find them anywhere.
Where did the old hag go with Tim?
A malicious look flashed across Raphael’s eyes as he thought about the handsome sum announced on television.
It’s fine if they aren’t here now. They will return eventually. Hmm… But what if others get to them first? Then, I’ll
lose my golden opportunity!
Instantly, Raphael called Ethen.
“Who’s on the line?”
“Hey, you’re looking for a boy, right? The one living with me now looks exactly like the boy in the picture that you’ve
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshown on the television.”
Ethen’s eyes lit up. He asked urgently, “Send me a photo now!”
Why in the world would I have Tim’s photo with me? I don’t even look him in the eyes usually! Raphael did not have
what Ethen wanted.
“Isn’t there a reward? Well, transfer me the money first, and then I’ll send you his photo.”
Ethen scoffed coldly at Raphael’s suggestion.
Is this a scam?
“If you don’t send me the picture first, I can’t verify if he’s the child we’ve been looking for. Only after everything is
confirmed that the reward will be paid.”
Having said that, Ethen hung up the call, refusing to bargain with the scammer.
He then continued on his way to Yaleview to give Benjamin an update.
His face was grim.
This is bad news. Without a photo, I don’t believe that the child is still alive.
When he arrived at Yaleview, Benjamin was having his meal. So, he waited for him.
“Have you had your dinner, Mr. Frank?” Arissa greeted him.
“Yes I have, Ms. York.”
Ethen averted her gaze, leaving Arissa curious.
Why do I have a feeling that he’s avoiding me?
“What’s the matter?”
Benjamin took a glance at Ethen.
“You go ahead and have your meal, Mr. Graham. We can discuss later.”
Ethen turned around and left. He was afraid that Benjamin would lose his appetite once he broke the news to him.
A glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes, and he continued eating until he cleared his plate.
“You carry on with the kids,” Benjamin told Arissa.
Subsequently, he strode toward his study and gestured for Ethen to tag along.
Arissa glanced at the two of them, and she felt something was amiss.
Upon shutting the door, Ethen presented a file to Benjamin.
The latter shot a look over and asked, “What’s this?”
“It’s about the missing child.”
Benjamin opened up the file.
Ethen took a deep breath and hesitated for a while before deciding to update Benjamin with further details.
“Our men discovered that Ms. Adams threw the kid away in the end. She has dumped the child into a dumpster…
So, the child’s probably…”
There was no way Ethen could finish his sentence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBenjamin narrowed his eyes as a murderous aura emanated from him.
The more he read through the report, the grimmer and more vicious his expression became.
Danna Adams!
Scrunching the pile of papers into a ball, Benjamin headed out with a pair of bloodshot eyes.
Ethen quickly stopped him. “Please calm down, Mr. Graham.”
He was beyond worried that Benjamin might do something he would regret and end Danna’s life.
“Get out of my way!” Benjamin bellowed in rage.
“Mr. Graham, Ms. York will surely notice if you leave like this.” Ethen tried to pacify him.
His heart wrenched to see how much despair Benjamin was in after losing his child. Yet, he knew that they must
stay calm and collected.
That wench Danna is definitely asking for death!
Benjamin tried his best to suppress the agony he felt deep in his soul and concealed his actual inner thoughts with a
stony expression.
Moments later, he seemed to be more composed. “Are you sure that the child is dead?”
Ethen looked at him and stated solemnly, “The chances of the child surviving were slim to none. I checked the
surveillance records at the hospital and saw that he was terribly ill. His medical report…”
