You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 1237

Arissa tossed and turned in bed anxiously. In the end, she decided to call Zachary.

However, Zachary's phone was switched off, so she couldn't get through to him.

After that, she called Gavin. The call got through in just a few rings, and soon, Gavin's cute voice was heard on the other end.

“Hi, Mommy!”

“Sweetheart, is Zachary with you?” Arissa asked.

Gavin, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse exchanged glances when they heard that. “He's here. What's the matter, Mommy?” Gavin asked. Mommy is still hospitalized. If we tell her Zachary and Tim are missing, she will be worried sick.

Judging by Gavin's response, Arissa didn't sense anything off. Yet, she had a bad feeling deep down. Why is my intuition telling me something has happened to the kids?

“Sweetheart, what are you guys doing now? Could we have a video call?”

“Mommy, we're in class!”

Arissa glanced at the time and realized the kids were indeed having classes. She then let out a sheepish chuckle and said, “Oh! I'll call you guys again after your classes.”

“All right! Mommy, don't worry about us. We'll behave ourselves in school!” Gavin assured her.

“Mommy, you don't have to worry about us. I'll keep an eye on the boys! If they misbehave, I'll inform you!” Jesse's eyes were brimmed with tears, but her composed tone was persuasive.

Jasper and Oliver gave Jesse a thumbs up and went on to mumble to each other so that it would sound like Zachary and Tim were there with them.

Arissa couldn't see what was happening on the other end of the phone call, but she thought the mumbling came from her four boys. Hence, she didn't bother to give it further thought.

“I'm hanging up, Sweethearts. Have fun in class!” Arissa urged her kids before she hung up the phone and frowned. Could it be that I was overthinking?

Afterward, she called Bradley. It took him quite a while to answer his phone. When he did, he asked, “How may I help you, Boss?”

Bradley sounded like he was on a bustling street.

Not knowing where Bradley was, Arissa asked, “Where are you?”

At that point, Arissa's brows were knitted together. I'm feeling so uneasy... Something bad has happened...

“I'm having a meal outside.” Bradley had stayed up all night playing video games and had just woken up to look for food.

“Bradley, my heart has been racing wildly the entire day. I have a feeling something bad has happened. When you're free later, please visit Graham Group and check on Benjamin.”

As Bradley listened to what she said over the phone, he suddenly saw a few familiar figures on the opposite side of the street. Those people look like they're looking for something.

Bradley was weirded out, but he didn't tell Arissa about it. Instead, he consoled her by saying, “Boss, your boredom must've gotten the better of you. That's why you're feeling on edge. Don't overthink, okay? I'll check on him after I'm done with my meal.”

“Okay. Finish your food quickly. I'll wait for your call!” Arissa hung up the phone.

Bradley instantly abandoned his bowl of food and went to look for the bodyguards he had spotted earlier. He found them shortly after and asked, “What are you guys looking for? Do you need any help?”

Those were all Benjamin's bodyguards, so they knew who Bradley was. Hence, they nodded, greeted him, and answered, “Zachary and Tim are missing! We're now looking for clues. If you're free, give us a hand!”

“What? Zachary and Tim are missing?” Bradley was stunned. Could it be that Boss was right, but she just didn't know it?

“You can't tell Mrs. Graham about this. Otherwise, she'll get worried! Mr. Graham had told us to keep it a secret,” one of the bodyguards reminded Bradley.

“How did they go missing?” Bradley frowned deeply. Those boys won't wander around for no reason.

“They were kidnapped from their school. We're now looking all over the city for them!”

“In that case, we have got to hurry up. Let's split up and look for them. Keep in touch, guys!” Without wasting a second, Bradley immediately searched the area.
