My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Chapter 404 Caught in the Act

Freya returned to her office after visiting Edward’s room, sinking into her chair with a whirlpool of thoughts in her mind.

Russell approached her, saying, “Miss Kaufmann, it’s time for a break. You should head to your room and rest. You seem tired today.”

She nodded, feeling the frustration of the day weighing on her. Most of the medical equipment relied on electricity, and the few electronic components she had acquired the day before came from the only available machine. Hence, her plan of contacting Radley today seemed impossible.

Lucius said, “Miss Kaufmann, I’m leaving as well.”

Just as Freya was about to bid him farewell, her eyes locked onto the electronic watch on his wrist. She quickly said, “I’ll walk with you. We can discuss the patient’s condition, and I need to brief you on tomorrow’s medication.”

Their rooms were on the villa’s second floor. As they climbed the spiral staircase, she noticed the absence of surveillance cameras. So, she discreetly reached out and grabbed Lucius’ hand.

He was taken aback and asked, “Miss Kaufmann, what’s wrong?”

She whispered, “Give me your watch.”

Lucius stared at Freya, his brow furrowed with confusion, but he did as she asked. He took off his electronic watch and handed it over.

“Do you like this watch. Miss Kaufmann?” he inquired.

She shook her head and whispered, “Wait. She quickly opened the back of the watch, removed three button batteries, and returned it to him, cautioning, “Keep this between us.”

Lucius put the watch back on, feeling a strange sense of urgency. He deduced that Freya must be planning something, as she had taken the electronic components discreetly and hid her actions from the kidnapper.

“What are you—”

Freya met his gaze. “You’re a medical prodigy, and I won’t allow you to die here.”
