Chapter 1988

Sandy lost her balance and fell to the floor. Her entire body was trembling nonstop in fear. When Colton
learned that Sandy was still in Zlokova, he hastily sent someone to look for her.

Meanwhile, the police had put Sandy on the list of people wanted for illegal entry.

When Freyja passed by the study room with Deedee, she overheard Colton and Leonardo’s
conversation.

She tightened her grip on Deedee when she learned that her mother was still in Zlokova.

Deedee raised her head to look at her and said in a low voice, “Aunt Freyja, you’re hurting me.”

Freyja snapped herself back to reality and loosened her grip a little bit.

Leaning forward, she touched her hand and said, “I'm sorry.Does it still hurt?”

She shook her head.

"Not anymore." Leonardo suddenly opened the door at that moment, and both of them were startled.

“Ms.Pruitt?” he said.

Colton raised his head and looked toward the door.

Freyja met his gaze and lowered her head to say to Deedee.

“Go back to your room first.I'll come to look for you later." Deedee returned to her room obediently.

Leonardo felt they might want to talk about something, so he left.



Freyja entered the study and said, “I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation.”

Colton leaned against the desk and asked, “Are you worried?”

Freyja knew he was talking about her mother.She lowered her head and asked, “Did she run away?"

Frowning, Colton replied, “I guess someone is helping her.Besides, I'm sure you're not her only target."

Initially, he assumed Sandy was there for Freyja, but if that was the case, she would no longer have
any reason to stay in Zlokova.

After all, it would be considered an illegal entry if she continued to stay in Zlokova.If she did not obey
and leave the country, she would be forcibly deported eventually.

If she wanted to fight against the Goldmanns all by herself, it would be like throwing straws against the
wind.

After learning that she was taken away by someone posing as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ staff, he
realized that Sandy was supported by someone from the dark,and that person was never meant to go
against the Goldmanns.

If their target was the Goldmanns, they would have started from Freyja instead of using Deedee’s
background to falsely accuse Freyja.

Therefore, he was certain that Sandy and the people behind her were targeting another person.It was
not the Goldmanns, nor was it Freyja, but...

Freyja suddenly said, “It's Nollace, right?"

Colton pressed his lips tightly and did not say anything.

If Freyja could guess it, it went without saying that he could guess it as well.



Frevja took a deep breath and continued.

“I knew it.It must be because of Ken’s death.My mother hates Nollace to the core because of my
brother.” Colton grabbed her into his arms and smoothed out her tightly furrowed brows.
