“They're teaching Tim how to use the phone in the lounge,” Arissa responded casually.

The next second, she looked at him again as something came to her. “Since you're here, help me to keep an eye on them. I'll go to the mall to buy a phone for Tim.”

Hearing that, Benjamin furrowed his brows. “We can buy one when we go out for dinner.”

Arissa felt that it sounded fine and nodded in acknowledgment.

“Hey! What are you both talking about?” Kingsley advanced toward the duo suddenly, scanning them from head to toe ambiguously.

Arissa turned to look at him instinctively.

On the other hand, Benjamin cast a look of warning in his direction.

Grinning gleefully, Kingsley asked deliberately, “Benjamin, why did you go to the town?”

“Didn't you go together with him?” Arissa was in bafflement.

“No, I was downstairs...” Before he could finish his words, Benjamin interjected, “Kingsley Watts, move aside!”

Kingsley put on an innocent look. Benjamin rose and shot him a glance, hinting him to move aside. The latter was quick-witted and followed behind him.

When they were quite a distance away from Arissa, Benjamin lowered his voice to warn him, “Don't let her find out Regan York is downstairs!”


Kingsley promised him, “Okay! I got it.”

Arissa twitched her lips as she turned to look in their direction, racking her brain on what they could be talking about.

Shortly after, she stood up and headed toward the lounge to check on the kids.

“Mommy, Tim knows how to use the phone now!” Jasper told her excitedly.

“Oh, is it? I'll buy him a phone tonight.” She stroked Tim's head affectionately.

“I don't need a phone. Ms. York, you don't have to waste money to buy me one.” Tim tried to turn her down nicely. To him, the phone was too costly.

“Everyone else has one each, so you should have one too. That way, you can get in touch with them!” Arissa tried to talk him into accepting it.

“Tim, phones are a lot cheaper now. I can buy one for you. Mommy doesn't need to buy it!” Zachary winked at him.

“You have money?” Tim stared at him.

Zachary grinned ear to ear triumphantly. “Of course!”

“If you feel bad that Mommy has to spend for you, I can buy you one!” Zachary gladly offered him.

“It's all right. I don't really need one!” Tim murmured.

“Tim, it's more convenient if you have a phone. By then, you'll be able to call anyone as you like. Besides, we can give you a call at any time too!” Gavin reassured him.

“Okay! We must get you one for convenience's sake!” Arissa made up her mind and stroked Tim's head. “Oh yeah! Your daddy is back!”

“Mommy, have you mentioned it to him?” Oliver lifted his head and stared at her.

“Yeah! I've told him.” Arissa nodded with a smile.

“What did he say?” Gavin asked apprehensively.

Meanwhile, Zachary and the others' eyes were on her as well.

She smiled at them. “Your daddy has already settled it. Tim, Raphael will be in prison for at least ten years.”

Tim was flabbergasted. Ten years? Is that possible? He was usually held captive for not more than half a month in prison after he was arrested!
