Benny was hesitant. “Are we really not going to tell Mommy? What if Essie gets lost?”
Archie furrowed his brows and answered, “Mommy hasn't been in a good mood over the past couple of days. If she finds out about it, she's going to be even more upset. Let's not make her worry and go home first!”
Upon listening to those words, Benny thought about how Roxanne had been over the past few days and nodded solemnly.
The boys held hands and left the amusement park to hail a taxi.
The taxi driver felt concerned when he saw two children hailing for a taxi. “Why are you kids on your own? Are you guys lost? Do you need me to call the police?”
Archie shook his head. “We came out on our own! Our mommy is waiting for us at home. Please send us back, Sir!”
The driver doubted those words, but he couldn't bear to leave the kids by the side of the road, so he let them get into the car.
The driver only felt more at ease and stepped on the gas after the kids told him their address accurately.
The Farwell residence was quite a distance away from the amusement park. Since the driver was driving two children, he drove slowly and carefully to the Farwell residence.
By the time they arrived at their destination, it was already past four in the afternoon.
The car slowly rolled to a stop at the Farwell residence entrance, and the driver was stunned when he saw the luxurious building before his eyes. If the family is so rich, how can they let their kids roam around on their own? Aren't parents afraid that someone might kidnap their children?
“Sir, please wait a moment. I'll head in to get money!” Archie said in a childish voice.
The driver jolted out of his thoughts and flashed a friendly smile. “That's not necessary. I don't take money from children. Hurry up and go in. Your parents must be worried sick.”
Obviously, Archie wouldn't agree. He patted Benny's shoulder and said, “Go and get some cash from Ms. Catalina. I'll wait for you in the car.”
“Okay.” Benny got out of the car and ran toward the entrance of the manor to ring the doorbell.
