The More the Merrier novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 I Will Not Give Up

Arissa’s body was still trembling.

She was both mad and worried at the same time.

Arissa was mad that Danna threatened her with her child.

She was also worried about the safety of her son.

Benjamin stood up, walked up to her, and embraced her.

He gently patted her back and comforted her. “We’ll find him, don’t worry.”

“But where? Where can we find him?” Arissa broke down and cried.

Trying to find a lost child was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

The thought of her child suffering somewhere in this world caused her to burst into tears.

Benjamin, too, was downhearted upon seeing how helpless Arissa was.

He leaned forward and pulled her head into his chest. He then gazed into her eyes and said, “This is not the time to break down. The more emotional you become, the more difficult it will be for you to track down the child. Unless you’re ready to give up?”

“No way. I’ll never give up! By hook or by crook, I’ll find him!” Arissa widened her eyes and exclaimed.

“I just… I feel I’ve let him down. I didn’t even know he existed before this. I really thought I had only given birth to quintuplets…” Arissa’s eyes turned red as she felt she had done her child wrong.

“It’s not your fault!” Benjamin looked at her aggrieved appearance and felt sorry for her.

He hugged her even more tightly and gently stroked the back of her head. “It’s my fault. Danna wouldn’t have a chance to lay her finger on the kid had I been more cautious with my investigation!”

Benjamin, too, felt a pang of guilt. If it were not for him, Arissa and the children would not have gone through the misery.

They nearly even lost their lives because of him.

We don’t even know if the child is still alive.

Benjamin could not breathe when he thought of the worst scenario. It was as if someone was strangling him.
