Chapter 195 The Kid From The Hill
Benjamin’s pulling out all the stops now. Looks like he’s determined to find us.
Suddenly, Arissa had a thought. Why don’t I just hand them over myself?
Danna might have been apprehended, but it would take some time to determine whether she would be put behind bars.
If Benjamin could somehow influence the court’s decision, Danna would face the consequences of her crimes.
After all, the children are me. Danna couldn’t take them away from me.
Now that the woman had been exposed, Arissa felt it was a smart deal to return Gavin to Benjamin.
The bounty was one thing. Whether they take it or not was another.
Nevertheless, Arissa began to form plans in her mind. She was certain that Benjamin would not be able to locate them easily.
After they were done with breakfast, Arissa took the children for a stroll.
The children noticed a clear stream up ahead and got excited. They rolled up their pants and went there to catch fishes, shrimps, and even snails.
“Be careful!”
Arissa sat by the riverbank and watched them play. Fortunately, the stream was fairly shallow. Aside from some slippery pebbles on the river bed, it was perfectly safe for the children to play in.
