Rodney turned around and gave his orders. “Call the police. Capture this woman and send her to the police station.”After giving out instructions, he carried Sarah and hurriedly headed out.He turned back after walking a few steps. He looked at Freya coldly. “You brought everything upon yourself. You have to bear the responsibilities since you broke the law. You’d better pray that Sarah doesn’t die. If not, I’ll make you compensate with your life.”He left afterward.Freya got up groggily. Before she could properly stand on her feet, both of her arms were restrained. She was taken outside. With each step, her abdomen hurt from getting kicked by Rodney. Even her ribs were hurting. The pain made her face pale, and she was swaying as she walked. Those people did not care about Freya’s condition. Seeing that she could not walk properly, they simply dragged her toward the car.When she was about to get dragged into the car, a black off-road SUV sped over. Then, Ryan’s sturdy figure
After informing Shaun, Ryan’s hand moved toward Freya’s stomach. If it were before, Freya would definitely push him away. However, she was in too much pain to bother. Therefore, she let his fingers press down on her stomach. “What happened?” Ryan’s brows were knitted together in such a tight frown. “Did someone kick you?”“...”Freya did not say a word. She just lowered her head. Her eyelashes cast shadows below her eyelids. Not long after, there were tears on her eyelashes.“Who did it?” Ryan asked coldly. “Rodney?”Freya bit her lip. It seemed like all of her pain and grievances were brought upon by Rodney. She felt like crying, but she did not let herself break down. However, when she spoke, her throat was hoarse. “Sarah was badly hurt. He kicked me twice. Do you think I’m an evil person?”“You wouldn’t have done this kind of thing,” Ryan said without hesitation. “During this period, we’ve been staying in the official residence and saw each other every morning and night. Wh
Then, Ryan accompanied Freya to undergo body check-ups. When the results of her chest X-ray were out, the doctor confirmed that she had a broken rib. Freya did not expect Rodney’s kick to be so ruthless.He kicked her until she broke a rib on the spot. No wonder she was in so much pain. She even had difficulty breathing. “Doctor, with my condition… How long do I need to recover?” Freya could not conceal the worry in her eyes. “I still have to raise a kid…” She had to breastfeed too. “About one month. With your condition, you can’t even carry your child, not to mention take care of the child. You have to be careful too. Don’t ever catch a cold. Once you catch a cold, you’ll get a chest infection easily.” After the doctor reminded her, he glanced at Ryan. “You’re her husband, right? Take care of the child more often. You can only wean the baby as well.”“...”Ryan’s face heated up. A hint of awkwardness flashed across his face. Freya quickly explained, “He’s not my husband.
Freya felt pretty hungry upon hearing Ryan mentioning breakfast. However, she was in too much pain and did not have much of an appetite. “The doctor told me to eat soft foods…”“Okay. I understand.” Ryan nodded and went out with Shaun. As he left, he closed the door as well. Catherine looked at Freya with a straight face. “Freya, do you know the person who kidnapped Sarah?”“As expected, you know me best.” Freya laughed bitterly. She said with complicated feelings, “The person who kidnapped Sarah was Eliza.”“...” Catherine’s pretty face carried a shocked expression. “It’s shocking, right? I had the same reaction as you when I found out.” Eliza’s cold gaze from before flashed across Freya’s mind. She could not help but shiver. “It was Chester who found out about it first. He contacted me. When we rushed over, Eliza was about to kill Sarah. However, I stopped her. I was afraid things would be difficult to deal with if she really killed Sarah. Besides, when I checked on Sarah, Eli
“Sister? Aren’t you a few months older than him?” Catherine teased playfully. “Oh well. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the one you slept with back then. His character is much better than Rodney.” Freya was stunned. She would not argue with Ryan, nor would they turn against each other. Moreover, Ryan was quite attentive and warm. If it had been him...Hold on. What on earth was she thinking?Ryan was Rodney’s cousin. She should not even think about such a thing at all.“Don’t talk nonsense.” Freya quickly glared at Catherine. “He’s my godbrother and Rodney’s cousin. Your thoughts are ludicrous.”She spoke so hastily that she became agitated. Her chest hurt, and she was a little short of breath.“Fine, fine. I was just saying. Why are you so agitated?” Catherine promptly comforted Freya. “Since I’ll be accompanying you in the hospital these few days, I asked Shaun to find out Sarah’s condition.”She went out to search for Shaun and spotted him talking on the phone at the staircase.On
Catherine replaced Ryan by sitting in his seat. She learned to blow on the soup as he did. However, when the food entered Freya’s mouth, Freya grumbled softly, “Cathy, it’s hot. Are you trying to burn my tongue?”Catherine was speechless. “But it wasn’t hot when Ryan fed you just now, huh?”“He cooled it down first.”“...”Fine. Did that mean Catherine was not attentive as a man?…Outside the emergency room.Rodney wrapped his hands around his head and waited outside for two hours before the doctor finally came out.He promptly dashed toward the doctor. “Doctor, how’s the patient?”“She’s in a bad condition. Her face… is disfigured. Her muscles and tendons are broken due to excessive blood loss, the delay in sending her here, and her infected wounds. Although we’ve fixed her tendons through the surgery, her nerves have certainly been injured. It’s uncertain whether she can walk in the future. As for her hands… After a few months of treatment, it’ll be good enough if she can e
Rodney could never be able to fully compensate Sarah in this life.He was so guilty that his eyes reddened.He had never thought Freya would be so cruel. She used to be quite a nice person, but to think she was cruel enough to kidnap Sarah and even break her limbs.How wicked of her.Why did he marry such a wicked woman as his wife?She even gave birth to his child.If Rodney had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.What tormented him more was that he had no idea how to face Sarah.After the doctor left, Landon from Snowden walked up to Rodney and reported, “I’m sorry, Young Master Snow. We wanted to send Young Madam to the police station as per your instruction, but after you left, Little Young Master Snow came to take her away.”Rodney pulled Landon over. From his eyes, he looked as though he was going to eat Landon up. “Even with so many of you, Ryan managed to take her away. What’s the point of paying you guys?”Landon’s thin lips twitched. I
The most furious moment in Wendy’s life was caused by her son.Jessica held Wendy’s shoulder. Then, she turned around and said to Rodney frostily, “Rodney, no matter how stubborn you are, don’t think of turning against the whole Snow family. You should be clear about the consequences. Don’t end up losing everything for the sake of Sarah. You might not care about it, but Shaun is targeting Sarah too. If you hadn’t been keeping a close watch on Sarah, he would’ve done away with her. If you offend the Snow family behind you, how are you going to protect Sarah?” “Who on earth is your biological child now? Freya or I?” Rodney was infuriated that they took advantage of his Achilles heel.“Firstly, Freya is Dani’s mom, so your grandpa won’t allow anything shameful to happen to his grandchild’s mom. Secondly, this is your uncle’s order,” Jessica enunciated each word coldly. “Don’t always think about Sarah. You should be considerate toward your child too.” “Hah. I hope so too, but has Fre
