Chapter 690


    Ava stopped for some time, but she then shifted her attention to Trinity. Cordelia no longer received her


    constant messages now. Trinity, instead, was on the receiving end of her harassment every day. It was


    a sunny weekend today. Cordelia wasfortably basking in the sun on the recliner in the yard when


    she heard the doorbell ringing hastily. The butler went to open the door, and Trinity barged in with


    disheveled hair and dark eye circles. “Gah, Cordelia, I beg you. Exorcize that devil, will you? Take her


    away!” Cordelia giggled and yanked Trinity over to sit with her. Trinity then showed the various texts


    and emails Ava had sent Trinity these days. Other than the usual motivational quotes and messages,


    there were countless photos—***y photos, barefaced photos, no-makeup makeup photos, morous


    makeup photos, casual daily photos—from all angles. The scariest one had to be the one she had sent


    last night. It was a close-up photo of her. Cordelia was having a yogurt drink and nearly spat it on


    Trinity’s face. “Do you know how much pain I’m in every day?” Trinity looked at her in disbelief. “She’s


    asking to be the female lead every day! There’s really someone so shameless in this world!” Cordelia


    bit back augh. “Block her!” “You think I haven’t?” Trinity sighed. “Each time I do that, shees to


    my studio straightaway. What course am I attending? I don’t even have to go to sses or edit my film


    anymore!” Cordelia hugged her with great sympathy. Speaking of which, this was all because of her. If


    she had not dismissed Ava’s position in thepany, thetter would not be so free to harass Trinity. “I


    can’t take it anymore!” Trinity punched the recliner. The talented director had filmed all sorts of scenes.


    She was talented and known for her calmposure. Now, though, she had lost all that just because


    of Ava. If she were to react harshly and some nosy paparazzi took photos of that, it would be a loss if


    news got back to Centrolis. “It seems like there’s no other solution except to put up with her.” Trinity


    sighed. “If only Millie was here. She certainly has ways to handle her!” “Oh, yeah, where’s Millie?”


    “Shooting a new film, very busy!” “I’ll think of something for you!” Cordelia blinked and smirked. “Get


    Neil over here! He’s so handsome Ava will definitely be overjoyed to meet him. She won’t pester you


    then!” “You…” Trinity red at her and raised a hand to act like she was going to hit her. “What?”


    Cordelia giggled heartily. “Unwilling to do it? Don’t want Neil to help you out with his good looks?”


    Trinity blushed. “Cordelia! Just wait until I whoop your *ss!” Both of them messed around, giggling. As


    the flowers in the yard swayed with the breeze, they seemed to bloom even more radiantly. “Alright, I’ll


    forgive you this time for the sake of my godson!” Trinity flicked her hair coyly. Cordelia hugged Trinity’s


    neck. “Seriously, it’s been so long, and you haven’t made any decision?” “What are you talking about?”


    “Your Mr. Right, duh!” Cordelia was even more anxious than her. However, Trinity quickly swatted her


    hands away. “Mrs. Hamerton, your husband’s home! Stop clinging to me!” “You—” Before Cordelia


    finished, she saw Zephyr walk out in haste. He looked grim and nodded to greet Trinity when he saw


    her. “What happened?” Cordelia got up to walk over.


    Zephyr hesitated for a bit. He nced at Trinity and pondered before saying heavily, “Something


    happened to Fredric.” “What?” Cordelia was astonished. Trinity was stunned. It felt like her heart


    stopped beating as her mind went nk. … Trinity could barely remember what happened after that.


    She could only remember Cordelia staying by her side and warming up her cold, shaky hands with her


    palms. Her mind was in turmoil, and her ears buzzed as she sat in the police station. It was like she


    had lost her ability to move or think and could only let Cordelia and Zephyr take care of everything for


    her. The police had caught several suspects—local thugs who specifically robbed foreigners around the


    airport. Among the loot was Fredric’s suitcase and messenger bag. The thugs had confessed that they


    robbed a foreigner in an alley the day before yesterday, but the man had fought back and even wanted


    to report it to the police. Angry, they stabbed him twice with a dagger. They stole all his belongings


    while hey in a pool of blood. Whether he lived or died after that, they had no idea. Trinity sat there


    stiffly, clutching the lucky charm Fredric had gifted her. “Trinity, don’t worry.” Cordeliaforted her.


    “Fredric’s lucky. He’ll be alright. Besides… he’s awyer. He knows a lot and has plenty of friends here.


    He’ll be able to make it out safely…” Trinity sniffed and tried to force a smile. Zephyr held Cordelia’s


    shoulder as he looked at Trinity. “The police’s searching for him in full force right now,” he said. “I’ve


    sent men to look for him as well. It should be fine.” “Mm.” Trinity nodded. It was “should be fine”, not


    “definitely be fine”. Actually, she knew even without them telling her that Fredric was severely injured.


    Those thugs would never go light-handed. He did not even have a cent on him now, and his phone and


    passport had been taken away too. To be stranded in the streets of a foreign country alone and beAll content is ? N0velDrama.Org.

    Trinity did not dare to think further as she screwed her eyes shut. Zephyr’s phone rang, and he quickly


    picked up. “How is it?” “Sir, we’ve asked all the hospitals in Melorian. No one’s taken in a foreigner


    who’s been stabbed!” Zephyr’s heart lurched, and his fingers tightened shakily. “Keep looking!” he


    growled into his phone, “There’s no way a living person is gone just like that! Find him even if you have


    to flip Melorian upside down!” “Yes, yes…” Zephyr sucked in a deep breath and felt guilt flood him. If he


    had not casually mentioned that Trinity was taking a course in Chaisnd on the call, Fredric would not


    have rushed his way here with the excuse of going on a business trip. If Fredric had note to


    Chaisnd, he would not have been caught in this mishap. They had grown up together since they


    were kids and were really close, yet he had brought harm to him! “Darling…” Cordelia sat beside


    Zephyr and stroked his back. Zephyr was caught in regret. “I won’t forgive myself if something happens


    to Fredric!” Cordelia bit her lips, not knowing how tofort him. A police officer came over. “A male


    corpse was discovered by the river. The appearance and physical characteristics are simr to your


    friend’s… It’s transferred over here. Who among you cane with me to identify him?” Zephyr was


    stunned, unable to utter a word.
