Xander looked utterly confused.


    “Go retrieve her. Even if she’s dead, I want to see the body,” Elijah said.


    Xander instructed people to equip themselves and go into the sea to retrieve Liora.


    Distressed, Rn genuinely liked Liora; otherwise, he wouldn’t risk angering Elijah to get her out of jail.


    “Elijah, you’remitting murder!” he shouted angrily.


    Elijah remained icy-faced, not even ncing at him. Xander felt Rn was seeking trouble. He sneered, saying, “She jumped into the sea herself. Who killed her? Besides, we’re going into the sea to save her!”


    Rn, infuriated, turned red in the face. “You’re twisting the truth!”


    “I told the truth.” Xander shrugged, adopting an indifferent attitude that almost made Rn unhinged due to anger.


    After an hour or so, the men who went into the sea returned to the boat. One of them said, “We couldn’t find her, it’s too difficult. The sea is vast, especially at night. The visibility is poor, and it’s challenging to find someone.”


    Rn, looking over the railing and seeing the endless sea, lit by the faint moonlight, knew that it would be nearly impossible to find her. If she hadn’t drowned, she could sumb to the cold or be attacked by sharks.


    “Liora.” Rn felt heartbroken, almost on the verge of tears.


    Xander sneered, thinking Rn had never seen a woman before. Why would he go to such lengths for someone like Liora?


    But Rn wasn’t necessarily wrong; he simply liked a woman, and in his eyes, she was the best.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He just liked her.


    It was probably the same reason Elijah liked Freya.


    There was no specific reason for the feelings.


    Xander quietly asked Elijah, “What do we do now?.”


    Elijah pondered for a moment and said, “You take some men to guard the ship overnight.”


    He wanted Xander to board Rn’s ship in case Liora was saved by Rn.


    “Alright, I know what to do.”


    …


    Back at the vi.


    After Elijah left, Freya waited for his return. She wanted to finish what she hadn’t said before. She needed to tell Elijah about the twins she was carrying. Although she lost one, she managed to keep the other. While waiting, she video-called Elowen, watching her son through the video.


    A smile lit up her face.


    “Freya, do you have something happy to share?” Luna appeared in the video as well.


    Freya replied, “Kind of.”


    She was more at ease now, having confessed to Elijah.


    “Oh, Freya, I might have to go to Urbora City for a while,” Luna said.


    Before Freya could ask if it was rted to Orion, Luna Ann continued, “It’s work-rted.”


    Freya still wished Luna would be honest with Orion. However, she could only sigh as an outsider.


    “I’m here, and I can pick you up,” Freya adjusted her mood, smiling.


    Luna responded, “My team might not have time to meet you.”


    Freya didn’t see it as a problem. “If you can’te to see me, I can go to see you.”


    “Alright,” Luna smiled.


    Kai suddenly cried.


    Freya nervously asked, “What happened to Kai?”


    “Ah, he’s probably hungry or needs a diaper change.” Elowen interjected. “When can you wrap up things on your end ande over?”


    Freya pondered their current situation and replied, “Soon.”


    After a moment of hesitation, she asked, “Mom, do you want toe over?”


    “Come over for what?”


    Freya wanted her to meet Leo, considering his current situation–his time was running out.


    “Maybe we could still live in Urbora City…”


    “I think things are fine here.” Elowen remarked, having grown ustomed to life on that side. She had no worries, just taking care of Kai.


    Freya didn’t insist and nned to discuss it when they met.


    They continued chatting, with Freya asking about her son’s well-being.


    After ending the video call, Freya went downstairs feeling a bit hungry. She found a piece of cake in the refrigerator, scooped up a bite with a spoon, enjoying its soft texture mixed with the fragrance of cream and the fruityyer.


    Suddenly, the doorbell rang.


    Linda wasn’t around.


    She ced the cake on the table and went to open the door. Seeing the visitor, she was momentarily stunned. The person at the door was Ynda.


    Freya, with a cold face, asked, “What are you here for?”


    Ynda looked at her, cried out suddenly, “Freya, your father is not doing well. He wants to see you for thest time. I had no other way to contact you, so I came to tell you in person.”


    Freya’s heart felt like it had plunged into icy water, chilling her whole body. Shocked, she couldn’t believe it. “So soon?”


    The experts had mentioned there was still some time.


    “Yes, it was sudden…” Ynda said, crying.


    Freya didn’t hesitate; she called for a driver.


    But the driver wasn’t there.


    Ynda said, “I have a car. Come with me; your father can’t wait. We don’t have time.”


    Freya, anxious, didn’t think much. She quickly put on her shoes and rushed out. “Let’s go.”


    Ynda stared at Freya’s back, revealing a triumphant cold smile.


    Once Freya got into the car, her face disyed an urgent expression.


    While driving, Ynda said through tears, “The doctor said your father still had some time, but somehow, he suddenly couldn’t make it…”


    Freya clenched her fists, forcing herself to stay calm. “Focus on driving.”


    “I will,” Ynda said as she sped away.


    Freya looked out the window. But soon, she realized they were on the wrong route. It wasn’t the way to the hospital. “Are you going the wrong way?”


    Ynda calmly said, “I’m taking a shortcut to the hospital.”


    “From the mansion to the hospital, I know the shortest route, and this isn’t it. Taking this path will only make it longer. Ynda, what are you up to? Where are you taking me?”


    Ynda calmly replied, “I’m taking you to see your father.”


    “No, this is wrong!” Freya realized something was amiss.


    “Freya, tell me the truth. What secrets do you and your father have?” Ynda changed from her previous mournful expression to a sinister one.


    Freya squinted, “Are you deceiving me? Is my dad really not okay?”


    “Of course, he’s fine. He can’t die now. Only if you die first will he be able to leave everything to my son.” Ynda said coldly.


    She discovered that Leo had secretly consulted awyer. She couldn’t get information from thewyer since he was loyal to Leo. Combined with Freya’s unusually mild attitude towards Leo and her expressing gratitude, it was clear there was a secret between father and daughter.


    She had to be cautious.


    Freya asked in disbelief, “You want to kill me?”
