Chapter 173

Chapter 173 Her Jig Is Up

“I’ll get down here and hail a cab. It’s quite far. Please go back to work.”

Arissa waved goodbye to her colleagues before taking a cab to Olswick.

She contacted the school and told them that the kids had been found. She also apologized to the

principal.

While she was on her phone, she sized the driver up, but nothing seemed unusual. She finally felt

relieved.

Meanwhile, in Olswick, Bradley was keeping a watchful eye on the man and the woman.

He didn’t know which building they were currently residing. He had to keep a low profile so that he

wouldn’t give the game away.

Nonetheless, he paid the beggars on every street in the area to watch out for the two. That way, he

would know once they made their appearance.

So, after he received Arissa’s call, he quickly rushed to her aid.

He spotted the five kids sitting on the terrace garden. They were eating snacks. They were so cute that

he could not bring himself to stay mad at them.

“Hey! What are you guys doing here? Your mother is worried sick.”

“Mr. Hinton!”

As soon as Bradley came into view, the children ran over to hug him.

“We are here for you. We wanted to give you a surprise,” Jesse said sweetly.



Bradley was shocked. “How did you know I’m here?”

“We have GPS,” Jasper answered, waving his phone.

“As much as we like visiting you, we have an urgent matter to tell you,” Zachary said sternly.

Bradley raised his eyebrows. “What is it?”

Chills ran down Bradley’s spine as Zachary told him everything.

That was a close one! If they hadn’t been practicing self-defense since they were much younger, they

would have fallen into the hands of the bad guys.

“We found that the culprit is somewhere around here. That’s why we came, and… we called her just now.

I believe she’ll show up soon.”

“Huh? What did you tell her?” Bradley was astonished.

Won’t she suspect anything?

A hint of cruelty flashed across Gavin’s eyes. “We told her that her jig is up. The police will be at her

doorstep in any minute.”

Bradley gaped.

“Now, we just have to wait for her to take the bait.”

Zachary revealed a devilish smirk.

“Oh, my! You should have at least told your mother about this.”

Bradley and the five children took their cover as they surveyed the alley.



The kids had already located the woman’s hideout. They just couldn’t be sure which room was hers.

Meanwhile, when Edwin realized Gavin was missing, he rushed to the school. He was anxious as well.

He didn’t want to hide the news from Benjamin, so along the way he contacted the boy’s father.

Benjamin did not pick up the call. Edwin had no choice but to call Ethen instead.

“Edwin?”

“Ethen, Gavin’s missing. Quick, send out a search party!”

Staggered, Ethen walked outside as he continued to learn about the situation.

After finding out that Gavin was last seen at school, Ethen hurriedly got his men to check the surveillance

footage.

He called Benjamin too, but the call was instantly cut off.

Huh? What the h*ll is going on out there? Mr. Graham hasn’t left Danna’s side. And now, he doesn’t even

pick up my call?

Left with no choice, he sent Benjamin a text message.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Danna noticed Benjamin’s active phone screen. She peered at the direction

of the restroom. Seeing that the coast was clear, she grabbed his phone, hung up the incoming call, and

deleted the phone record.

It wasn’t easy to get Benjamin to stay with me. I won’t let anyone come between us. If he leaves, I’ll be

stuck here on my own.

Ethen texted Benjamin: Mr. Graham, Gavin’s missing.



Danna’s eyes lit up at the sight of the text message. She immediately deleted that too.

That son of a b*tch is missing? This is great! He had better not show his face again!

A hint of smugness flashed across her eyes.

The door opened. Danna instantly put down Benjamin’s phone and got back onto the bed, pretending to

be asleep.
