Chapter 152 An Exchange

“No. I’ll pass.”

Arissa was worried, for she had not seen the other children since the previous day.

Benjamin turned to her. “Though those people have been caught, that doesn’t mean you’re safe. Aren’t you afraid of endangering your children?”

Benjamin’s voice was stern at the last sentence. Until then, the stubborn woman still refused to tell him the truth, and Benjamin could not help wondering if she was planning to hide the truth from him forever.

Arissa was less worried about Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper. However, she was extremely concerned about Jesse as the little girl was the most clingy one among all of Arissa’s children.

After a few days, the girl would lose it.

Noticing the woman was struggling to come to a decision, Benjamin suggested, “If you’re worried about your children, you can fetch them over. Otherwise, I’ll have to compensate you for work injury if anything bad happens to you.”

Arissa’s mouth quivered before she uttered, “Don’t worry, Mr. Graham. Even if anything happens to me, it’s none of the company’s business.”

“Are you sure your family members are fine with that?”

Benjamin stared at her firmly. Though he seemed expressionless, he was utterly serious.

Arissa was stunned. Is he implying that the children will seek compensation from him? That’s rather amusing.

She cleared her throat and remained firm in her decision. “No thanks. I’m afraid my children will disturb you.”

It’s better not to let them meet for now. I’ll just have to part with them for a few days. It’s no big deal.
