Jasper Is Fast
Arissa nodded. “Get something to eat, Sweethearts. We’ll be heading back soon.”
“Yes, Mommy.”
The five children hurried over to join Kingsley’s table.
“What happened to Jasper earlier?” Shaun asked with concern.
Arissaughed. “He must have been afraid I would leave him behind.”
“No wonder Jasper runs so fast!” Ethenughed.
Arissa sat next to the children and helped herself to one of the pastries. She also brought some for
Mary.
She only managed a few bites before the bodyguards informed them they were ready to depart.
“I’m not done yet!” Kingsley protested before ncing at the time. Sure enough, they have been seated
for less than ten minutes.
“We’ll pack it up and eat on the journey,” Arissa instructed before leaving to procure some containers
with Bradley and Ethen lending a hand.
“We’re going to help you up the ne, Mdm. Mary.”
Draining his tea in a gulp, Kingsley got up to push Mary’s wheelchair.
“All right.” The olddy looked at Arissa and the children. “I’m boarding the ne now, Issa.”
“All right. We’ll be ready soon,” Arissa responded as she apportioned the food before her. “There’s no
need to pack these. We saved these for you, Bradley. Take care of yourself while you’re here!”
Bradley nodded at her words. “Don’t worry.”
After hesitating for a moment, he cleared his throat. “Mr. Graham asked me to oversee the construction
of Mary’s new house, Boss. It may be impossible for me to return to Dellmoor for a while.”
Arissa nodded in relief.
“All right. Keep up the hard work of supervising here.”
Bradley seemed to sink with defeat. “Can’t you at least pretend to be reluctant to part with me, Boss?”
Ethenughed. “You would be in big trouble if Mr. Graham heard that, Bradley.”
Bradley attempted a weak smile. “Don’t you rat on me. When is the person you’d arranged for going to
be here, anyway?”
“Tomorrow at the earliest. I’ll call you then!” Ethen patted him on the shoulder. “Thank you for keeping
an eye out over here!”
Bradley walked them out.
The five children said goodbye to him one after another. “Bye, Mr. Hinton! We are going home!”
“See you, children!” Bradley smiled dotingly. “Give me a call when you think of me!”
“We will!” Zachary promised at once.
“Let us know if you ever need anything. We’ll mail it to you!”
Bradley was moved. “That’s very kind, children. Send me snacks when you get back, will you? There’s
nothing delicious in the canteen here!”
Arissa nced at him. “Have you been to the grocery store?”
Bradley cursed to himself. D*mn! I’d underestimated the boss’ observational skills again.
“I was there earlier today when I received your call, Boss.”
Arissa merely stared at him. Instead of responding, she decided to beckon the children onto the ne.

“We’re off, then. Give me a call if something happens!”
At that final instruction, she followed the children up the ne.
“Don’t worry, Boss,” Bradley replied with a smile.
After a hasty farewell to him, Ethen, too, boarded the ne.
Jasper was waving at Bradley from the window.
“Goodbye, Mr. Hinton!”
Though the ss was made of thick, soundproof ss, Bradley heard him through a crack in the door.
He turned and returned the wave.
“I miss you already,” he called, “visit me again sometime!”
Arissa gave him an amused look before leading the five children into the cabin.
Jasper immediately ran to Benjamin to sit beside him at his mother’s appearance.
Perplexed, Arissa nced at each of them in turn.
Benjamin was on the phone with somebody from his office.
After leading the five children to their seats and buckling them in, Arissa checked Mary’s seatbelt
before taking her seat.
Benjamin frowned at the distance she ced between them.
After double-checking that the passengers have all been seated, the bodyguards closed the cabin door.
Ethen patrolled to ensure everybody was properly buckled in before informing the pilot to take off.
