Chapter 227 Do Not Break Your Promise
“Don’t worry about it. We’re also responsible for anything that happens to them when they’re at school. It’s our mistake since we weren’t more careful about who we let into the school grounds. I’m glad that you found them safely,” Robert said.
When he saw Benjamin, he continued, “Mr. Graham, we will improve our security measures to ensure the safety of all the students in the future!”
“Mm.” Benjamin nodded briefly.
However, there were some things that still needed to be said.
“Make sure you increase the number of guards to watch the surveillance cameras at all times. Second, refrain any strangers from entering the school grounds. Moreover, make sure you check all your future employees’ backgrounds thoroughly before hiring them,” he continued.
“Yes, Mr. Graham,” Robert replied and took a deep breath after looking at them.
Thank God Mr. Graham didn’t blame me too much on this.
“Mr. William, I’m sorry! We shouldn’t have left on our own without telling you!” Gavin took the lead to apologize to Robert.
Robert patted his head and said, “It’s okay. You’re safe now. That’s what matters.”
“Mr. William, it’s our fault. We’re sorry!”
“I’m sorry! We were wrong!” Zachary apologized sincerely with a bow.
“We’re sorry, Mr. William! We won’t do it again!”
Robert couldn’t bring himself to reprimand the kids because he had liked them since the day he met them.
“All right, you’re forgiven. Run along now,” Robert ruffled their hair.
“Okay!” They laughed together and happily gave some of their food to Robert. “Mr. William, this is our little token of apology. Please accept it.”
“You’re too kind,” Robert was surprised.
“Go on now,” Arissa said with a smile.
“Bye, Mommy!” they said while waving their hands. Before they went in, they glanced at Benjamin.
Robert furrowed his brows when he realized that the kids didn’t say anything to Benjamin. “Mr. Graham, we’ll take good care of them.”
Benjamin nodded in response and left after holding Arissa’s hand.
“Bye, Mr. William!” she said and left hurriedly with Benjamin.
Almost every parent who was dropping their kids off at the school gate was staring at them. However, no one seemed to recognize him since he rarely appeared in the media.
Although the parents didn’t know who Benjamin and Arissa were, they couldn’t stop themselves from looking at the beautiful couple.
No wonder the quintuplets are born with good looks!
“Get in,” Benjamin beckoned to Arissa when they reached his car. Once she had fastened her seatbelt, he walked to the driver’s seat and drove off.
“Are we going to the office?” Arissa asked.
Benjamin glanced at her through the rearview mirror. “I’ll consider that you’ve applied for leave before your two days’ absence. If this happens again, I’ll make you pay according to the contract.”
“Hehehe… That was a special situation. It won’t happen again!” Arissa just grinned.
How much do I need to pay for that anyway?
Arissa didn’t put much thought into that section when she went through the contract.
Out of a sudden, Benjamin stopped his car at the roadside and looked at her.
“What?” Arissa asked. She was surprised by that.
“Remember what you said, Arissa,” he said while he looked into her eyes.
“Of course.” She nodded.
“Very well. If you break your promise, you’d better be prepared to face the consequences!” he said with a raised brow as he stared at her.
Arissa breathed a sigh of relief after he stopped staring at her and continued driving.
When the two of them reached the company hand in hand, the security guards and receptionists gaped in surprise. They even forgot to greet Benjamin like they always did.
Meanwhile, Arissa was so embarrassed that she tried to free herself from his grasp.
“Mr. Graham, what are you doing? You have a reputation to uphold,” she reminded him in a soft voice.
“What? I didn’t say anything, yet you are complaining? Or did you lie when you promised to become my woman?” Benjamin replied while looking at her.
Arissa’s mouth twitched in response to his mockery.
Hmph! Weren’t you the one who said that you won’t be interested in me just a few days ago? Yet, you’re holding my hand as if to let everyone know I’m your woman now? Don’t you feel embarrassed at all?
