Chapter 435 A Lead

It was a photo of Gavin. Ethen looked at Rick and asked, “Mr. Griffin, do you remember this child?”

Rick recognized that the boy in the photo was one of the children he saw last time. He looked at Benjamin and

Ethen with confusion. “Yes, isn’t he one of the children who came with Ms. York?”

“Does your village has a child who looks like him?” Ethen asked. Rick shook his head immediately. “No.”

Benjamin furrowed his brow. The village chief seems certain about it. Could that person be lying then?

Benjamin glanced at Ethen. This time, Ethen took out Raphael’s photo. “Mr. Griffin, do you know this person?”

Rick recognized Raphael instantly. “Yes, I do. He’s Raphael!”

Ethen’s gaze flashed. “Is he someone from your village?”

Rick nodded and seemed confused. “Why are you looking for him? The police took him away a few hours ago.”

Ethen exchanged a glance with Benjamin before continuing, “Mr. Griffin, I received a call from Raphael saying that

a boy in his house looked identical to Mr. Graham’s son and was the child we were searching for. Therefore, we

came here to ascertain whether it is true.”

“Mr. Graham’s son? Are you talking about Tim?” Rick looked at him.

Benjamin’s eyes glinted. “There’s really a child in Raphael’s house?”

Rick nodded. “Yes, but…”

He looked at Benjamin and continued, “But Tim doesn’t look like your son at all!”

As far as he remembered, Tim had dirt all over his face and did not seem like he could be Benjamin’s son.

Disappointment flashed across Benjamin’s eyes at that.

“That being said, they did pick Tim up from somewhere…” Rick added.

Ethen asked, “Is the boy around five years old?”

Rick nodded. “Yes, a few years ago, Mary and her husband went to Salinsburgh and brought back a newborn. They

said that they found him in a dumpster. At the time, we advised them to report to the police and hand the child to

them. However, the child was weak and was frequently ill. They had to keep bringing the child to the hospital.”

Rick paused and continued, “They had to wait until the child was better before they could make a police report. But

no one came to claim the child. As such, they believe that the child’s parents abandoned him. Since their biological

son, Raphael, was in prison for robbery, they decided to adopt the child.”

Hearing that, Benjamin felt that there was hope again.

Ethen became excited too. “Mr. Graham, could he really be your son?”

They found the child in a dumpster in Salinsburgh, so it fits the circumstances. I don’t think this is a coincidence. He

must be Mr. Graham’s son.

“Where is their house? Can you bring me there?” Benjamin urgently wanted to see the boy. He wished to confirm

whether the boy was his son as soon as possible.

Rick sighed. “We went to the house just now, but Mary and Tim were gone. We have no idea where they went. I’m

not sure they would be there if we go now.”

Then, he looked at Benjamin in confusion. “Mr. Graham, haven’t you already found your son? Why are you still

searching for him?”

“We are looking for another child. He has been missing since birth,” Ethen explained the truth to the village chief.

Rick was shocked. If Tim really is his son, he would have nothing to worry about for the rest of his life.

“I’ll bring you there. The house is a little far from our village. Tim always looked dirty, so I’m not sure he’s your

child,” he said.

“You only have to bring us there. We can confirm it ourselves,” Ethen replied.

Benjamin followed Rick to Raphael’s house.

He could not describe his feelings upon seeing the old and shabby house.

Although he wasn’t sure whether the child was his son, he could not help feeling sad for the child.

“They are impoverished. Ever since Mary’s husband, James, passed away, her health grew worse. She could not

afford to see a doctor, and Tim had to work to support the family,” Rick explained.

“He had to work?” Ethen was shocked to hear that a five-year-old child had to work.
