The More the Merrier novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401 Emotional Breakdown

“Arissa!” Benjamin pulled her away and said, “Let’s go back. How long will it take for you to search for him in this manner?”

Tears sprang out of Arissa’s eyes.

“I want to look for him…”

Benjamin embraced her and caressed her head. He felt equally terrible as well.

He’s my son too!

“We will find him! Don’t panic!”

Arissa buried herself in his arms and sobbed uncontrollably.

The young beggars looked at them in fright. They had no idea what was going on.

“Don’t cry. Go home with me. We’ll deploy more men to search for him. As long as he is still in the country, we will be able to find him! Even if he is in another country, I will find him too!” said Benjamin with determination.

After a while, Arissa finally calmed down.

She wiped the tears off her face.

Benjamin is right. I can’t panic because it will make things worse.

We have to deploy more men to search for him.

Arissa got out of Benjamin’s embrace and saw the group of young beggars looking at them timidly.

They looked so miserable that she could not help but caress their heads.

“I’m sorry that I scared all of you.”

The beggars shook their heads.

Arissa felt sorry for them that they had to live on the streets at such a young age.

She took out her purse and gave them all the money she had.

Arissa felt that being nice to them would somehow keep her child safe.

“Go and buy something to eat.”

“Thank you!”

The few of them accepted the money gingerly.

“You’re welcome!”

Arissa felt terrible. How many homeless children are there?

When Benjamin saw how caring she was, his eyes darkened.

“Arissa, let’s go back!”

He went up to grab her hand and pulled her toward the car.

This time around, Arissa did not fight back. Instead, she turned back and glanced at the young beggars.

Giving them money would not solve their problems in the long run. An idea popped up in her mind.
