Chapter 433 The Orphanage Has No Record

In the car, Benjamin frowned as he looked at the phone screen lit up with an incoming call. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.

Ethen turned to him and reminded softly, "Mr. Graham, your phone is ringing."

Benjamin's eyes flickered. He pressed to answer the call just as the ringing was about to stop.

"Yes?" he said.

"Benjamin, did you go out?" Arissa's voice came from the other line.

Benjamin's eyes flickered. "Yeah, I'm outside."

Arissa pondered for a moment and asked, "Did something happen?"

"No, it's nothing," Benjamin replied with a light chuckle. After a pause, he continued, "It's getting late. You and the children should rest early."

Arissa felt that he was hiding something from her. "Did you receive news about our child?"

Benjamin was stunned for a second. "No, not yet."

Arissa narrowed her eyes when she sensed that his tone had grown heavier.

Is there really no news, or is he hiding it from me?

"All right. You go ahead then." Arissa hung up immediately to call Bradley.

Benjamin stared at his phone and frowned. Has she noticed something?

Meanwhile, Arissa contacted Bradley to check the progress of his investigation.

"Boss, I was tracking Danna. However, the trail broke off once she brought the child to Yaleview. Someone had altered the surveillance footage," Bradley explained. Arissa narrowed her eyes. "Can you replace out when did someone alter it?"

"I will try," Bradley replied.

He tried to check if he could recover the surveillance records, only to replace that someone had deleted them. Thus, they were unrecoverable.

"Boss, someone deleted the records an hour ago!" Bradley said.

An hour ago...

Arissa felt her heart sank.

Ethen came to see Benjamin an hour ago. Both of them remained in the study for a long time. Did they do it? But why?

She clenched her fist and could not understand what was going on.

The only possible explanation she could think of was that Benjamin could be trying to protect Danna and did not want to go against her.

Arissa felt a stab to her heart.

She sat dazed for a long time until her phone rang.

She glanced at the phone screen. It was a call from the orphanage.

She answered it immediately. "Director..."

"Arissa, we've checked the records in the orphanages all over the country, but we can't replace a child of your description..." the director said. Arissa was disappointed. "Thank you, director. Sorry for the trouble."

The director comforted her. "It's nothing. Perhaps we didn't search carefully enough. We will continue searching."

"Thanks again." Arissa hung up and had a worried expression.

Since the orphanage did not have any information about the child, it would be harder to replace him.

She felt her heart sink as she thought something could have happened to her child.

Therefore, she got up and pulled out her computer to continue searching.

Zachary woke up feeling thirsty. He came out of his room to get a drink.

Just then, he noticed the light in Arissa's room was still on and came to check.

He opened the door and found her sitting on the carpet at the coffee table. She was focused on the computer screen, searching for something. Zachary came near and looked at the computer screen. "Mommy, why aren't you sleeping? How long have you been investigating this?"

Arissa jumped at the sudden noise. She turned around and saw that it was her son. "Why are you up?"

"I was thirsty and wanted a drink. I noticed your light is still on, so I came to check on you," Zachary answered.

He looked at her before looking at the computer screen again.

Then, he bit his lower lip and said, "Mommy, it's late. You should have some rest and continue searching tomorrow."

Arissa patted his head and explained, "I want to replace your brother as soon as possible. I'm worried about how he is doing out there."

Seeing Arissa's worried expression, Zachary felt sad for her.

Based on Mommy's character, she won't be able to feel at ease until she replaces my brother.

"I understand. But you should still take care of your health!" he advised.

"I know. Go back to bed. I will go to bed too in a while," Arissa said to comfort Zachary. Seeing that he was thirsty, she poured him a glass of water.
