Chapter 403 Getting The Orphanage To Look For The Child

"All right! I'll see to it right now!" The director instantly signaled all the children over.

Soon, about ten children ran in their direction.

They were all thin as a rail. It was clear that they were all malnourished.

As a mother, Arissa's heart sank when she noticed how frail the children looked.

She walked up to them and looked at them one by one but did not replace her child.

Upon noticing the disappointment on her face, the director asked, "What's wrong, Ms. York?"

Arissa smiled wryly and told him the truth. "A child of mine had gone missing, and to this day, I still have no idea where he is. If you know any directors from the other orphanages, could you check with them for me?"

"Sure!" The director nodded. "Can I know the child's birthday? Do you have his picture?"

"Yes!" Arissa immediately gave him a photo. "He's one of the sextuplets, so he should look more or less like his siblings in this photo, even though there might be a slight difference in weight."

"Great! It should be easier for us to identify the child now that we know how he looks like. I'll send them the photo and keep you updated! Could you give me your contact details, Ms. York?" The director immediately snapped a photo with his phone and uploaded it into their chat group.

"Thank you!"

Arissa immediately gave the director her contact details. She also gave him Bradley's number in case she missed the director's call.

Benjamin, who had just ended a call, turned around and frowned. "Give him my number!"

"What?" Arissa turned around and gave him a puzzled look.

A hard glint flashed across the man's eyes. He snatched the pen from Arissa, dropped his contact number on the paper, and passed it to the director. "My assistant will arrive in a minute, and he'll make the arrangement with you. Tell him if you need anything else."

"Thank you, Mr. Graham. What you have offered is more than enough for us!" The director expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome. I hope we'll be able to replace the kid as soon as possible." Benjamin nodded and left the orphanage with Arissa.

"Goodbye!" The director walked them to the door and bade them farewell.

Arissa turned around and reminded the director, "Don't forget to call me when you have any information about my child!"

"Got it. I'll ask them to look into it right now. I'll keep you updated from time to time, so don't worry!" the director replied. Benjamin nodded and nudged Arissa. "Come. Let's go."

Once Arissa had stepped into the car, Benjamin closed the door and ordered the chauffeur to hit the road.

"What's wrong with you? Are you in a hurry?" Arissa wondered.

"Let's not waste time since the kid is not here. Ethen will take care of the rest," Benjamin said.

Arissa nodded. Yes, I must not forget that I came here to look for my child.

The two then returned to the Graham residence.

Just when Arissa was about to look through the data, Benjamin grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the dining area.

"Let's grab a bite first."

Arissa's heart started pounding as she stared at the manly hand that was grabbing her wrist.

"Don't you need to head back to the office?" she asked.

Benjamin glanced at her.

He was supposed to be at work but had to leave the office when he learned from his security guard that Arissa was looking for her child like a headless chicken in the park.

"There's not a lot of work in the office." Benjamin then pulled out the chair and made her sit.

Arissa suddenly recalled he had made a trip to the lock-up. "Did Danna say anything to you?"

"Eat first!" Benjamin instructed the butler to serve her a bowl of soup.

Arissa looked at him steadily and asked in a serious voice, "What did she say?"

Benjamin lifted his eyes to look at the persistent woman.

He pressed his voice and answered, "She said the child is missing, and she had no idea where he was."

Arissa's body twitched upon hearing that.

How is it possible? My child is missing, and he's not with Danna...

Benjamin knitted her brows when he saw her face turned pallid. "I would like to think of it as a blessing in disguise. At least the child is not in her hands, and she couldn't do anything to harm the boy." Benjamin made this remark to console Arissa and convince himself to look at the bright side of the turn of events.

Benjamin's heart sank for a moment.
