Chapter 430: Chapter 431

Chapter 431 The Village That She Had Been Before Ethen was taken aback.

“Why did the man hang up so suddenly?”

He didn’t even state the main point yet. Did he suddenly give up on spinning his tale?

Benjamin narrowed his eyes. The voice sounds familiar.

“Locate this guy.”

Ethen widened his eyes in disbelief, and he blurted, “Mr. Graham, do you actually believe his words?”

Benjamin shot a look over and insisted, “Go and find out where the guy’s from.”

“Yes, sir!”

Ethen zipped his mouth and swiftly performed a search on the mysterious man.

He was utterly flabbergasted when he found out where he lived.

“Rutaceae Village?”

A frown crept up on Benjamin’s face as he repeated the name, “Rutaceae Village?”

“That’s right, the guy’s from Rutaceae Village!” Ethen nodded.

He then added, “Isn’t this the village Ms. York has visited before?”

Perhaps the villagers had seen the boy before. So, they made the call on purpose?

He got all worked up at that thought.

Unbeknownst to him, Benjamin thought otherwise. His eyes widened as he finally recalled whose voice was it over the phone.

It’s the village chief!

Meanwhile, the village chief led the police to arrest Raphael.

“Someone alleged that you’ve committed domestic violence. Please come with us to the police station.”

“Domestic violence?” Raphael spluttered.

This is unbelievable! Could it be Mom who reported me?

“Let’s go.”

The police handcuffed him and took him away.

Raphael struggled to break free with all his might while shouting at the top of his lungs, “I didn’t do it! You’ve got the wrong person! Who was it that reported me? I’m going to kill that person!”

Alas, his resistance was futile.

At the same time, a young boy could be seen calmly walking out of the police station which was situated next to the clinic.

The person who reported Raphael’s offense was none other than Tim.

When he returned to the clinic with a big bag of food, he saw that Mary was about to get a jab.

The facilities at the clinic were extremely limited, and they could not offer her the much-needed treatment. However, since all public transportation had ceased operating at that hour, they could only stay at the clinic first.

Tim had planned to bring Mary to a bigger hospital for consultation the following day.

“Grandma, try this. It’s meat bun!”

He might look unkempt, but his hands were clean. He took out a hot bun and offered it to Mary.

The crowd surrounding them could not take their eyes off of him as they gossiped.

Tim was well aware that the others despised him due to his dirty and messy appearance. Yet, he refused to move a muscle and stayed by Mary’s side faithfully.

The nurse wanted to help him wash his face, but he declined. He did not want to leave Mary’s side even for a few seconds because he was afraid that she might abandon him.

“Come over here, Tim, and let me wipe your face.”

Mary was very touched by Tim’s sincerity and gratitude. Upon understanding his intention, she dismissed the idea of sending him away.

“I won’t leave you.”

Her assurance cheered him up. He leaned forward and made her a promise. “Grandma, you’ll get better once we pay a visit to the big hospital. I’m sure of that.”

Mary plastered a smile on her face despite feeling sorry for the boy. She tried to brush it off by saying each consultation would easily cost them a few thousand.

A few thousand was already a significant figure for someone who resided in the village. Unbeknownst to her, the total for her medical expenditure was actually way beyond that amount.

Mary studied Tim’s clean face.

Everyone was dumbfounded the moment his good-looking face with very delicate features was revealed.

This child is so gorgeous! He looks just like a doll. It’s just a pity that he’s too skinny.

“Hurry up and eat, Tim. Don’t worry about me.”

Mary tousled the boy’s hair affectionately.

“Okay!” He nodded.

When the young and old had finished their food, they lay together on the small chair, trying to get some sleep. It was a sorry sight to behold.

A few nurses approached the duo and gave them a blanket. They were won over by the boy’s cuteness.

One of them muttered to her colleagues, “Why do I have a feeling that I’ve seen the boy somewhere?”

“There’s nothing strange about it. Maybe he’s been here for vaccination before.”

“I don’t think so...”

Meanwhile, back at the Graham residence in Dellmoor, Arissa was looking for Benjamin after showering the kids.

She wanted to check if something happened since he had not shown up for quite some time.

Furrowing her brows, she returned upstairs to the children.

Just when she pushed the door open, the five kids that were huddled together immediately sprung off and went lying down in their original positions.

Arching her brow, Arissa questioned, “What were you guys chatting about?”
