Freya thought to herself, like, seriously? Would a cold-hearted dude like Walter really give her a hand?
If he was all about helping, then why the heck had he ignored Peanut all these years?
Freya just couldn''t buy the idea that Walter would be her knight in shining armor. Alexander seemed like a way better bet.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the guy suddenly said, "Mr. Kennedy sent me."
Freya was caught off guard and blurted out, "Wait, really him?"
She was kinda shocked, but it also made some sense. Her face got allplicated for a sec.
"Why would he wanna help me?"
The guy didn''t bother answering and instead said, "Oh, and Mr. Kennedy wanted me to tell you that your hubby is now in Las Vegas."
The word "hubby" hit her like a ton of bricks.
She instinctively nced at Peanut sitting next to her. He was leaning against the window, eyes wide with curiosity. The bruises on his arm, peeking out from his slipped sleeve, were hard to miss. She had thought she had it all, but in the end, she had zilch. It was all just a fantasy she had cooked up for herself.
Freya lowered her eyes, her fingers clenching tight.
To be real, that paternity test had been haunting her for years. She often wondered if Alexander had faked the results to mess with her.
Now, she was dying to know the truth.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
The guy handed Freya an envelope and then told her to get out of the car.
Freya stood at the intersection. Inside the envelope were her passport and a bank card.
Was this Alexander''s doing?
Did he want her to track down Walter?
After Freya left, Getty went on a rampage and trashed the house again.
She had nowhere to go now, spending every day tangled up in court battles. Everyone thought she was living the high life, but only she knew what a mess her days really were. Quinn and Abigail had been hanging out in Sylvadora for a few days. They''d hit up almost all the tourist spots and were now in some remote area, close to the border. Standing on this hillside, they could barely make out the neighboring country.
"This ce gives me the creeps. How about we head back?" Orion said softly. The ce looked deserted, with nothing but rocks and trees, and hardly any people around. Plus, they''d heard it was kinda sketchy here.
Abigail shot him a disdainful look and scoffed, "You''re a grown man, how can you be such a wuss?"
Orion felt a bit embarrassed and defended himself, "I''m just looking out for you guys, okay? If we get snatched and taken somewhere, I might just lose a kidney, but for you two, who knows what could happen..." Before he could finish, Abigail kicked him and shouted, "Shut up!"
Orion was used to it and skillfully dodged Abigail''s kick. "I''m just being real. Don''t you guys watch the news? And here we go again!"
After a bit of yful banter, they both stopped and turned to look at Quinn.
She was sitting alone on a rock, staring off into the distance, lost in thought.
Abigail frowned and pushed Orion aside but didn''t move any closer. She just stood there, watching Quinn.
She had been like this for days. Even though she always came out to hang with them, she spent a lot of time daydreaming.
Orion noticed too and sighed, "What''s she thinking about?"
Abigail didn''t say anything, but her face was serious. No one knew what was on Quinn''s mind.
Abigail hadn''t seen Alexander in the past few days, and his behavior was totally different from what Quinn had described on the phone, like he had just vanished into thin air.
