Chapter 489 A Desperate Journey

Frey was jostled by the crowd on the streets of Maruva. Though she had lived in Pontenero for a while, her life had been confined to Pontenero.

This was her first time in Maruva, a coastal city.

She glanced at her phone, noting twelve missed calls from either Nathaniel or Koen.

She surmised that Nathaniel had received her divorce agreement and wanted to discuss it.

But Frey had more pressing matters. Her brother's life hung by a thread, and she had no time or mood to discuss it with Nathaniel.

She was already prepared to leave him and gave Nathaniel and Luna her blessings. Discussing anything else seemed pointless now.

What was there to discuss?

Money was no issue for either party, and she had completely yielded on that front. She valued Nathaniel's life far more than his money.

As for feelings?

Frey smiled bitterly. After everything she had been through, discussing feelings felt redundant. She was numb.

Michael's message popped up on her phone again, instructing her on what to do

next.

She couldn't act rashly; the location on her phone kept moving.

She had killed Michael's adopted daughter Abigail, and Mason was in Michael's hands, either dead or injured.

She couldn't afford to act impulsively. She even obeyed Michael's orders and refrained from calling the police.
