Chapter 215

You Do Not Know Why

Benjamin narrowed his eyes at Arissa. His expression darkened as he saw the awkward smile on her
face.

“Then why are you hiding them from me?”

Facing another one of his intense interrogations, she felt a pang of guilt.

Immediately, she flashed him a bright and innocent smile.

“Mr. Graham, there must be some misunderstanding. We’re hiding from the bad guys.”

Looking at how her eyebrows arched with her grin, he could not bring himself to vent his frustration on
her.

Benjamin snorted coldly.

Is she implying that I’m also a bad guy?

In the meantime, Ethen was listening closely to their conversation. When he noticed that Benjamin did
not lose his temper, his admiration for Arissa grew.

It seems like Mr. Graham seldom loses his temper when Ms. York is around. Furthermore, he seems to
be in a good mood and becomes more talkative than usual. Could it be that he had fallen in love with
her?

The thought thrilled the assistant, and he decided to treat Arissa with respect in the future.

“Don’t scold my mommy. What’s wrong with hiding from you? It was our idea. We don’t want to
acknowledge you!” Zachary responded defiantly.



Benjamin’s gaze fell on the three angry children in his arms.

“Why?”

“Don’t you know why?” questioned Zachary.

Pfft!

Ethen burst out in laughter. The moment he sensed a warning glance from his back, he covered his
mouth to avoid laughing out loud again.

At the same time, Arissa also chuckled while she marveled at her son’s audacity.

Benjamin stared at the little boy, who was not afraid of him in relief, as expected of his son.

Nevertheless, he still wore a solemn expression on his face. “Tell me about it.”

Pouting, Zachary glared at him.

“You’re one of those bad guys. Why should we acknowledge you?” Oliver chimed in on behalf of his
brother.

Although I don’t like Benjamin and Danna together, he’s still our father, no matter what. It’s better to get
closer to him. What if he helps that wicked woman to bully Mommy?



Benjamin’s eyes flickered as he peered at Oliver. “What do you mean?”

“That wicked woman, Danna Adams!” added Jasper angrily.



Taken aback, Benjamin shifted his gaze to Gavin. The latter turned his face away arrogantly, ignoring
his father.

After letting out a sigh, Benjamin explained, “I’ve already sent someone to arrest her.”

There was a mild surprise in the children’s eyes. It was a reaction that he expected.

When Benjamin thought of the hardships that his children had to suffer because of Danna, his
expression turned grimmer.

“In the future, I’ll protect you. I won’t let anyone bully you again.”

He swore to take revenge on anyone who bullied his children and woman.

Hearing that, the three boys in his embrace stole glances at him. They felt happy that he was not only
comforting them.

“We can protect ourselves without you,” declared Zachary.

All of a sudden, Benjamin complimented, “And you guys did a great job on your own.”

Zachary was astonished, for he did not expect to hear that.

He thought Benjamin would say they were just children who could not protect themselves.

Beside him, Jasper giggled and asked, “How long will that wicked woman be imprisoned?”

In an instant, Benjamin’s gaze darkened. “The law will decide that.”

How dare she try to kill my children? I’ll make her stay in prison for the rest of her life.

Jasper smacked his lips. What kind of answer is this?



At the same time, Arissa felt somewhat disappointed. He’s being merciful to Danna. Does he still care
about her after she has tried to kill us several times? When I’m back, I must find a lawyer and make
sure she stays locked up for the rest of her life.

“In the end, she’s still very important to you, isn’t she?” Gavin asked with a hint of grievance in his
voice.

Arissa felt a tug in her heart and hugged him tightly.

Although he grew up in the Graham family, he was not happy.

The trauma from Danna was etched in his mind forever.
