In the main office building.
Freya stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the cars below her feet.
Her eyes flashed with a hint of unspeakable confusion.
Her mind was in a mess. She probably started feeling this way after learning that Rodney lied to her
yesterday morning.
As such, she could not help but call Catherine. “ When I had breakfast with Rodney this morning, we
talked about Sarah, and I felt that his attitude was strange.”
“What was strange about him? ” Her words made Catherine uneasy.
“He wasn’t as… disgusted as he used to be. It felt like he was trying to avoid the topic. But I can’t put
my finger on what it is.” Freya slid her finger over the window, not knowing why she did so, just like her
mood at that moment.
“Could it be that you’re overthinking it?” Catherine fell silent for a moment before she comforted Freya,
“Sarah has done a lot of evil deeds in the past. She even cuckolded Rodney and humiliated him. No
man can forgive her.”
A thought struck Freya’s mind. “Yeah. Whenever we used to mention this woman, he would make no
pretense of resenting her. But today… I didn’t see it on him. He kept lowering his head.”
Catherine could not deny Freya’s thoughts. As women, they had very keen senses when they were
with their partners.
“One more thing…” Freya continued uncomfortably, “As you know, he was on a business trip earlier.
Yesterday, a friend of mine spotted him in Canberra in the morning, but he lied that his flight was
around five or six in the evening. He only returned home at night and had even changed his clothes. I
went to his office yesterday, but he wasn’t there or at Osher Corporation. I don’t know why he lied to
me…”
“I suspect… he’s hiding Sarah, ” Catherine voiced out the thought that she did not wish to be true.
Freya instantly felt as if she was plunged into a
deep abyss. She kept falling but could not reach the end. The feeling of being lost was miserable.
After a while, she muttered, “Maybe I am overthinking things. He might have something else to deal
with.”
She did not believe that she was so unlucky.
In her first relationship, she was betrayed. Just as she planned on getting married in her second
relationship, it turned out to be a mess.
Rodney claimed that he loved her.
In fact, she had only agreed to marry him because she found it blissful to be loved by him.
“Yeah, that’s possible.” Catherine understood Freya’s feelings and consoled her, “What’s more, this one
time doesn’t mean anything. It could be a misunderstanding, or he did something that he doesn’t want
you to know. It’s impossible for all married couples to be completely honest with each other. This
happens to Shaun and me as well. How about you keep an eye on him and see what happens?”
“By the way, he said he’ll get Snowden members to hunt Sarah down.” Freya felt better after hearing
Catherine’s words.
“Let’s hope that we can find out Sarah’s whereabouts as soon as possible.” Catherine said, “ After
checking the footage of the surveillance camera, we can confirm that Sarah is back in Canberra. But
she seems to have vanished into thin air. Shaun suspects that she’s staying in an old residence that
doesn’t require any identity documents. He’s trying to look for her by targeting those areas.”
“Okay.”
“Don’t overthink things. We’ll handle this issue. ”
As soon as Catherine hung up the call, she happened to spot Shaun’s car entering the manor.
He soon went upstairs and hugged her from behind. “Cathy, I just dropped Lucas and Suzie at
preschool. Their teacher said that there’ll be some Halloween activities in a few days and asked us to
join.”
“Their preschool really does have quite a lot of activities.” Catherine sighed.
