Chapter 2025

Freya felt pretty hungry upon hearing Ryan mentioning breakfast. However, she was in too much pain
and did not have much of an appetite. “ The doctor told me to eat soft foods…”

“Okay. I understand. ” Ryan nodded and went out with Shaun. As he left, he closed the door as well.

Catherine looked at Freya with a straight face. “ Freya, do you know the person who kidnapped
Sarah?”

“As expected, you know me best.” Freya laughed bitterly. She said with complicated feelings, “The
person who kidnapped Sarah was Eliza.”

“…”

Catherine’s pretty face carried a shocked expression.

“It’s shocking, right? I had the same reaction as you when I found out.” Eliza’s cold gaze from before
flashed across Freya’s mind. She could not help but shiver. “It was Chester who found out about it first.
He contacted me. When we rushed over, Eliza was about to kill Sarah. However, I stopped her. I was
afraid things would be difficult to deal with if she really killed Sarah. Besides, when I checked on Sarah,
Eliza had cut the tendons to her limbs. Chester said that Rodney could surely figure out it was Eliza
who did it if he continued investigating the matter. The only way was for me to stay at the scene. With
concrete evidence, Rodney would not be suspicious as I do have an ulterior motive.”

Catherine understood quickly. “So Rodney was the one who hurt you?”

Freya nodded. Her eyes were filled with mockery. “ Rodney arrived after Chester took Eliza away.
Sarah is really very important to him. I’ve never seen him so furious before. If he wasn’t in a hurry to
send Sarah to the hospital, he probably would’ve killed me there and then. He initially wanted to send



me to the police station, but Ryan came over and took me away. Nevertheless, Rodney surely won’t sit
still and do nothing.”

“Rodney has truly gone mad.” Catherine clenched her fists out of anger. “Sarah has done so many bad
things. She’s just receiving retribution for them. ”

“But Rodney doesn’t think so. In his heart, Sarah has gone through a lot.” Freya sighed. “Actually, it’s
good that I stayed back instead of Eliza. I don’t dare to imagine what would’ve happened if Rodney
knew the culprit was Eliza. He would’ve killed Eliza on the spot.”



“Did Eliza agree to you taking the blame for her?” Catherine asked.

“No. Chester knocked her out and brought her away.” Freya recalled the situation. She frowned. “ Eliza
was in a crazy, extreme state. Actually, we all despise Sarah, but I think Eliza hates her more.

Chester said Eliza and Charity were best friends from childhood…”

“We were Charity’s best friends too, but we’ve never gone that far just because of our grudges. ”
Catherine was ashamed. However, she felt something was strange at the same time.

“That’s right, ” Freya said bleakly. “Ever since Charity left, we haven’t done anything for her. Think
about it. When Charity went to jail back then, Shaun and Rodney played a role in putting her there.
Although they were deceived, some things are still facts. I just took the blame after thinking about it.
This way, I can protect Eliza and avenge Charity at the same time.”

“Mm.” Catherine’s heart grew heavy upon hearing it. She was upset. She was living happily, but she felt
as if she was living on stolen happiness when she thought about Charity sometimes.



Charity would be their regret for the rest of their lives.

“Cathy, I’m only telling this to you. I hope you don’t tell anyone else about this, including Shaun. After
all, it’s better not to have so many others in the loop.” Freya reminded Catherine.

“I won’t. Rodney might not let things slide, but don’t worry. I won’t let you go to jail. Even if it means…
contacting my mother and asking her to pressure the prime minister…”

Freya’s pale lips moved. She stammered, “Ryan said he’ll solve this problem…”

Catherine was stunned upon hearing that. She gave Freya an astonished and ambiguous gaze. “He
treats you pretty well, huh? By the way, if it weren’t for him getting there in time today, you would’ve
been at the police station now.”

“I’m his sister, okay?” Freya’s heart warmed all over. At that time, her whole body was in pain. She was
scared and helpless. However, after Ryan showed up, she suddenly did not feel scared anymore. It felt
like she had someone to lean on.
