Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 2209

Athena was still locked up by Tyler, but he hadn't cut her off from the outside world. When her phone rang and Elsa's name flashed on the screen, Athena barely reacted-she had nothing to say to her.

But Elsa's first words caught her off guard.

"Athena, can we meet? I know who killed Kerwin."

A flicker of emotion crossed Athena's eyes, but when she opened her door, she found two bodyguards standing outside.

Tyler wasn't letting her out.

On the other end, Elsa didn't hear any response, so she kept talking. "I'll admit, I never liked you. I was in love with Kerwin-really, deeply in love. Back then, my stepfather used to beat me. I'd hide in a corner, crying, and Kerwin would show up out of nowhere, like some kind of guardian angel. He'd bring me something to eat, comfort me, ask if I wanted to call the police. But I was too scared to do anything. After that, I always watched over him from afar. He was so kind, so talented. You liked him too, so you must know what it felt like to be around him-like all the good in the world was wrapped up in him. That's why I took so many pictures of him. I used to be jealous of you, jealous because he was always protecting you. I thought you only got with Tyler because he was rich."

"Athena, please meet me. I found out a huge secret tonight. Think of it as my way of making it up to you."

"All right. Text me the address," Athena replied.

As soon as the call ended, she dialed Maja.
