Fred smiled as he leisurely walked out. “Miss Santos, long time no see…
Angel nced at him. She felt that his smile gave off an ufortable vibe. Although his features
bore some resemnce to Matthew, his eyes were sinister and repulsive. She coldly turned her
gaze away, clearly not wanting to engage with him.
Fred was naturally unhappy to be ignored. He lowered his
is voice in displeasure. “Angel, don’t you recognize me? I am Matthew’s…”
“Get lost! Don’t try to cozy up to me Angel snapped, rolling her eyes and walking away without a
second thought. She had recognized Fred, but she was well aware of the Grant family’s dirty
dealings, especially Fred’s notorious reputation in Kranson City. Seeing him made her feel
disgusted. Fred was already filled with anger. Now, he was further humiliated by Angel’s outburst.
He had always been overshadowed by Matthew at thepany, but he hadn’t expected to be
disrespected by a mere actress here.
Despite being the daughter of the Santos family, Angel was just a vase to Fred, a useless
decorative piece. Now, she dared to speak to him so rudely just because of Matthew.
“That bitch” Fred clenched his fists, pulling out his phone with a cold smile. “Angel, you forced my
hand. Don’t me me for not giving you a chance. me Matthew instead.”
Soon, several figures were stationed at the foot of the mountain.
The Anderson family’s memorial service didn’tst long, given that Sarah’s body was never found,
and many formalities were omitted. In the end, a burial teamid her symbolic grave under the big
tree in the Anderson family’s backyard, a way of returning her to her roots.
However, only Owen knew the real purpose behind this.
Olivia often took walks in the backyard, basking in the sun. There was a small wooden house in the
backyard, which served as her private painting studio. Now, if she were to go to the backyard and
see therge tree, it would remind her of Sarah. Coupled with the solitude of the backyard, it would
likely bring her more sorrow thanfort

Angel apanied Olivia in seeing off thest guests was exhausted by the end. Thinking she
could finally leave, she heaved a sigh of relief and bid farewell to Olivia. As she stepped out, dusk
had fallen,
Olivia wanted to keep her for the night, but Angel thought Matthew had probably gone to find
Valerie. This thought made her so angry that she couldn’t stay. She insisted on leaving.
“I won’t keep you here if you want to leave. Be careful on the road, Olivia said.
“Don’t worry, Olivia. I’lle to keep youpany in the next day or two Angel said coquettishly
before leaving. She pulled out her phone to make a call when she saw a car approaching.
She moved aside to let it pass, but the car veered slightly off course, startling her. She stepped on
the elerator, but a sharp braking sound cut through the night.
Her car was hit, and Angel was furious.
Her mood had already been sour today, and this was her new car. Angered, she got out of her car
to inspect the damage when a young man stepped out from the other vehicle. It was too dark to see
his face clearly. Angel was about to shout in anger when she noticed a cold smile on the man’s
lips.
The smile sent a chill down Angel’s spine. She was about to return to her car when the man moved
swiftly. He immediately covered her mouth and dragged her into a van, blindfolding and tying her
up.
Another man jumped out of the van, and they drove off,
, one car leading and the other following.
They clearly knew the area well, having likely scouted it beforehand. After winding through the roads
down the mountain, they soon disappeared into the night.
The night was as ck as ink, making it seem like nothing had happened.

was sitting in Matthew’s car, pouting a bit angrily.
She was supposed to leave on her scooter, but halfway through her ride, she heard a honk behind
her. Matthew had somehow followed her and insisted she get into his car.
She hadn’t stopped her scooter, but Matthew still managed to block her path.
She thought, ‘So what if you have a car!‘

Matthew folded down the back seat, stashed the scooter in the back of the car, and drove down the
mountain.
He thought Valerie had fallen asleep, but when he nced up, he saw her reflection in the car
window. Her cheeks were puffed up like a cartoon character, making him want to pinch her.
“Don’t be angry. I’m taking
ing you to see something.” he said.
Just before heading down the mountain, Charles had sent him a message. They parked the car at
the park in front of Slotmond Estate.
Valerie listened in a daze, but since she was already in his car, she couldn’t run anywhere. So she
nodded. However, Matthew still acted mysterious, When they arrived, just as she was about to get
out, her vision went ck. Something cold was ced over her eyes.
She took a moment to realize that it was his tic. She was confused. ‘Why is he covering g my eyes
with his tie?!
“Come with me.” Inplete darkness, Matthew’s voice became particrly clear and deep.
Valerie felt her hands enveloped by warm,rge hands. She had to follow his footsteps carefully
because she couldn’t see anything.
Even so, she identally stepped on his feet However, Matthew didn’t get angry. They walked for
about twenty–something steps, and Valerie vaguely heard the sound of music ying
In her confusion, the tie was untied. When she regained her sight, she saw a pink car parked not far
away.
“Is this… did you prepare this for me?” she asked in surprise.
The car wasn’trge. It was the same model Matthew usually drove, but the interior of the car
seemed to have been body, there were images resembling her cartoon hamster. Valerie’s heart
skipped a beat unexpectedly.
