“Give me the knife.” Eliza did not want to hide anymore.“ I’m doing what I have to do. Let me take
Sarah’s life.”
“Eliza, you can’t kill her. You’ll go to jail. Once you’re in prison, the rest of your life will be ruined,” Freya
dissuaded her anxiously. “Sarah is hateful. I desperately want her to die as well.
However, the law will punish her. She’s not worth you using the rest of your life to get revenge on her.”
“I want her to be punished by the law too, but there’s no evidence. If possible, I don’t want to go this far
either.” Eliza’s eyes were filled with determination. No one understood her pain.
“We can slowly collect evidence,” Freya shouted at Eliza. “You’re my best friend. I can’t just stand by
and watch as you ruin your life for such a scumbag. C’mon, let’s leave quickly.”
“Leave?” Eliza laughed. Where could she go?
She had nowhere to go. As long as Rodney kept investigating, he would easily find her.
Rather than have that happen, it would be better if she killed Sarah first.
“Even if I leave, I have to kill her before I go.” Eliza tried to escape Chester’s grasp, but that man’s
hands were like handcuffs.
She could not hold it in anymore and pushed Chester. “Chester, let go. This is my own business. ”
Moreover, if it were not for the man in front of her, she would not have to go that far. Her parents would
not have died either.
Chester did not waste any more time talking to Eliza. He raised his hand and knocked her out.
Eliza’s body fell toward the ground. Chester immediately caught her.
Freya was flustered. “Why did you…”
“Would she leave if we don’t knock her out?” Chester took the car keys from Eliza’s pocket and tossed
them to Freya. “If you want Rodney not to suspect Eliza, remember what I told you before. The car
outside is yours, and you were the one who hired the people who kidnapped Sarah. When Rodney
comes, you mustn’t let him suspect anything.”
Freya, who had to bear such a huge crime, panicked. However, looking at Eliza’s pale face, she held it
in and clenched the car keys tightly. “I know. Take her and leave.”
Chester carried Eliza. As he left, he glanced at Freya. “Hang in there. I’ve already contacted Catherine
and Shaun. They’re on their way here.”
After he spoke, he left with Eliza in his arms.
Freya stood there alone for a while. She found the surroundings smelly and creepy.
She crept toward Sarah and checked for her breath. Sarah was still breathing. Luckily, she had not died
yet.
Freya was actually very frightened. Chester said Rodney would let her off the hook, but she did not
really believe him. Sarah was so important to Rodney. When Rodney saw Sarah’s state later, Freya did
not know whether he would kill her on impulse or not.
However, Freya did not regret it. If Eliza stayed back, the chance of her dying was 1oo percent. At
least, Freya still had a 50 percent chance of living.
Nevertheless, the other 50 percent made her think of Dani. She became terrified.
At that moment, Freya’s phone rang. The word ‘ Ryan’ on the screen was like a lifeline in the darkness.
She picked up the call immediately. Her voice was trembling. “R-Ryan…”
“Freya, where did you go? I’m on the federal highway. Tell me the location.” Ryan’s anxious voice came
through the phone.
“What highway?” Freya reacted half a beat later. She almost cried. “Is it the place that I passed through
just now? I’m inside this factory…”
