Chapter 423 Matthew’s Lie

The man who answered the phone glanced at Freya Kaufmann and said, “A local Kundin

woman.”

Matthew’s expression turned serious. “Let her take the call.”

Although the man was somewhat surprised, he still handed the phone to Freya and said, “Someone wants to talk to you!”

She took the phone through the protective net and placed it to her ear.

On the other end, Matthew’s voice sounded anxious as he spoke, “Freya?”

She felt a sense of relief upon hearing his familiar voice. “Matthew, are you in this town?”

There was heavy breathing on the other end of the phone. “I am! I brought a lot of people to find you. Stay where you are. I’ll be there soon!”

She smiled and hummed agreeably.

Then, she handed the phone back to the man in black, who now seemed more pleasing to her eyes. Plus, since Matthew had brought his men along, she felt a great deal safer now.

A speeding black car stopped next to her car in less than 10 minutes.

The car door swung open, and Matthew’s tall figure stepped out of the vehicle.

She looked at that familiar face and felt a warmth in her heart. Finally, she had a friend in Kundin.

So, she opened the car door and got out. “Matthew.”

He looked at her and walked up to her before reaching out to embrace her tightly.

She quickly tried to push him away. “Let go.”

Alas, he only held her tightly, making her feel uncomfortable.

“No, I won’t.” His voice was muffled, and it seemed as though he was crying. After a while, he sighed and murmured, “I finally found you.”

Freya felt a bit awkward. “Let go. It’s not appropriate for you to hug me like this, especially considering our relationship.”

He buried his face against her neck and took a deep breath before straightening. It was clear
