Chapter 448 The Boy Escapes Again
Jonathan frowned as he wondered why Benjamin didn’t come with them. “Okay, this should be easy if you have evidence.”
Not only did Danna steal Benjamin’s child, but she even got him killed. That alone was enough for them to give her the heaviest sentence possible.
Arissa’s eyes were filled with hatred as she clenched her fists. “I hope that Danna can be brought to justice as soon as possible, Mr. Patterson.”
“Please be patient, Mrs. Graham. There are certain procedures that we need to go through. I’ve already submitted the request, and I’ll inform you as soon as I get a confirmation on the date for the court hearing. Right now, what we need to do is focus on gathering as much evidence as possible,” Jonathan reassured her.
Still feeling worried about Arissa, Shaun secretly sent Benjamin a text while she wasn’t looking.
Unfortunately, Benjamin was so busy with the search that he didn’t notice it.
“Any news, Ethen?” he asked while standing next to the border with a pair of shades on.
“We’ve checked all the cars that came through here, but we haven’t found anything!” Ethen replied with a frown.
He, too, found it puzzling how a child could go missing without a trace in such a small town.
Suddenly, an ambulance happened to be heading their way.
The kid inside the vehicle panicked and quickly hid himself when he recognized them as the guys looking for him.
“Mister, please don’t tell them that you’ve seen Grandma and me! They’re bad guys!”
The driver found his request a little strange and tried to reassure him, “Those are policemen, Tim. They’re not bad guys, so you don’t have to be afraid. They’re probably investigating something else.”
Hearing that, Tim glanced out the window and saw actual policemen standing there.
Policemen? What are those bad guys doing with the police? Are they in cahoots?
Believing that they were Raphael’s men, Tim insisted, “My uncle owes a lot of money due to his gambling. He hit me and Grandma yesterday because we couldn’t give him any money. Those guys are here to capture me and use me to repay the debt! Please help us out, mister! Grandma needs to see a doctor, so I can’t afford to let them take me away!”
He was so afraid of being captured that he had fear written all over his face.
“Will you please help us out, young man? They can do whatever they want with me, but Tim is only five years old! Please don’t let them take him away! How about you turn the car around now? We’ll forget about heading into the city!” Mary pleaded.
