Freya furrowed her brows and opened the message, “If you don’t agree to meet, I’ll come to your workplace to find you.”
There was a hint of threat in this message.
“What does it say now?” Elijah asked.
Freya pursed her lips, her mind constantly searching for who this might be.
As far as she remembered, there shouldn’t be anyone like this anymore.
Adam had broken legs, so he wouldn’t be looking for her.
Thinking about it, there was no one else.
“If I don’t go, they’ll come to my workplace to find me,” Freya felt uneasy.
She didn’t like these inexplicable things happening.
She became wary herself.
“I’ll accompany you to work tomorrow,” Elijah said.
Freya looked at him, feeling a sense of guilt.
As a wife, she couldn’t take care of the family well, leaving him worried.
Instead, because of her, he couldn’t work properly.
She lowered her head slightly.
Looking at Kai in her arms.
Kai was mostly raised by Elowen.
Little Treasure was also taken care of by Elowen now.
“Elijah, give me two years. The dean chose me. If I quit now, he may not find a replacement for a while. Two years should be enough time to complete the research and development. By then, I’ll resign and take care of you and our children at home,” Freya said.
Elijah turned to look at her.
He felt she was under pressure, holding the steering wheel with one hand, he used the other to touch her face, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” she smiled, “Anyway, you can support me, so I’ll just enjoy the good life at home.”
Elijah had heard from Orion’s mouth more than once that she was a person with dreams!
To let her give up herself for the family.
Would she really be happy?
“I thought you were going to support me? What’s this, trying to wriggle out of it?” Freya looked at him, “I might not be able to afford you, you’re too expensive.”
Elijah, “…”
Why did that sound so unpleasant?
What did he mean by too expensive?
“Don’t overthink it,” he held her hand, “I’m here, aren’t I? Don’t be afraid.”
At this moment, Freya felt it was good to have someone to rely on.
She sincerely said, “Thank you.”
“Between husband and wife, there’s no need to be so polite.”
…
Orion had already traveled a long distance and was very tired.
But lying in bed, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
He couldn’t forgive himself for the mistakes he had made.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt restless and anxious.
He suddenly sat up.
How could he, in an unconscious state, do such a thing?
To a woman who was meant specifically for accompanying men!
He got out of bed and went to the study.
Because he had accumulated some documents from his out-of-town inspection, he had planned to deal with them at the company tomorrow, but now he couldn’t sleep, so he decided to start working now.
…
Late at night.
Luna couldn’t sleep either, she curled up on the windowsill, looking at the stars outside!
Buzzing.
Her phone, lying at her feet, suddenly vibrated.
She picked it up.
“Luna, come to the station right away.”
“Okay,” she immediately replied, while quickly adjusting her mood.
She put on her clothes and went out.
When she saw Tyler there too, she frowned slightly, “Are you also going on duty? Your injury hasn’t healed yet.”
“I’ll be fine.”
When Luna worked before, she had seen this kind of workaholic.
Actually, he couldn’t be called a workaholic.
It might be more about spirit and values!
For someone like Tyler, solving cases is what gives meaning to his life.
And fulfilling work is also a good thing for her.
It helps her forget about chaotic thoughts.
The location they were called to this time was a karaoke bar.
A woman was found dead in one of the private rooms.
When Luna saw it, she subconsciously covered her mouth and nose.
She had seen many bloody scenes before, but this was…
