Chapter 290 The Murderers
Freya and Radley walked out of Jonathan’s office. However, upon a brief hesitation, Freya eventually decided to say something that was at the back of her mind “Radley”
“Yes?” Radley looked at Freya while walking beside her.
“Actually, after fighting the mysterious man who was armed with a crossbow, I had my friend investigate his whereabouts Freya frowned and added, “He was last seen in the area that was under development in North Geft.”
Radley squinted in response, knowing there was only one place, which was under development, in North Geft. More importantly, that region was owned by the Monaghan Group. “I see. The man nodded and gazed at Freya. “You mustn’t put yourself at risk ever again. It’s not worth jeopardizing your safety just to gather the evidence we’re looking for.”
On the other hand, Freya appeared hesitant in response, thinking she was to blame for having gotten Melissa and Hannah involved. “After the fight with that man, I’ve become more certain that those people are the same stalkers who had been secretly investigating me earlier.” She spoke softly, looking at Radley. “However, I’m still confused. Why didn’t they attack me directly? They instead targeted the people around me instead. Why?”
After careful deliberation over the past few days, Freya believed her stalkers wouldn’t have dared to do anything silly due to the publicity she was gaining. That’s impossible! They’re trying to kill somebody note
“Don’t worry too much about that. Just stay safe and leave the investigation to me,” Radley replied.
“No need for that. I told you that because I feel responsible for what happened to Hannah.” Freya frowned in response.
they continued their conversation, they unknowingly found themselves arriving in the corridor of the
room. “You know what, Freya? Grandma has been talking a lot about you lately.” Radley’s gaze softened.
Frey’s fell silent when Radley mentioned his grandmother. After all, it had been almost half a year since she returned from Vroria, yet she hadn’t visited Radley’s grandmother at all. To Frey, the old lady had always been the same benevolent person before and after she gained her memories because she was the only one who always stood up for Freya when the entire Monaghan Group doubted her.
Ar the thought of that, Freya’s heart was filled with pain and sympathy. Although Radley’s grandmother had Alzheimer’s disease, Freya was the only person she could recognize whenever her condition relapsed. “TH pay her a visit whenever I’m free, “she spoke with a soft voice and took a deep breath.
Not long after that, they found themselves standing outside Melissa’s cell room while talking. “See you” Freya nodded.
In the meantime, Radley had been waiting for a chance to visit Melissa as well but could tell from her expression that she was reluctant to let him join her. It’s pretty obvious that she doesn’t want me to stay with her for too long, isn’t it? He then pursed his lips and made a turn at the corridor’s comer, where Hannah’s cell
room was located.
On the other hand, Freya stood outside the cell room and looked at Melissa, who was still sleeping in bed “Wake up, Melissa.”
Melissa tossed and turned in bed a few times before sitting up straight and seeing Freya through the door “Freya, you’re here!” She ran to the door excitedly.

Freya smiled. “Yes, I’m here.”
“Freya, have you found the murderers who killed Benjamin?” Melissa’s eyes were filled with tears.
Freya sighed in disheartenment. After all, Melissa’s first question was always something about her release every time Freya paid her a visit. Furthermore, Benjamin was Melissa’s first love, and the fact that he died because of her only added to her disappointment. In order not to upset Melissa, Freya smiled and tried to light up the atmosphere. “Don’t worry, the law enforcers have been actively investigating the case, so I think it shouldn’t be long until you’re released.”
“What about the murderers who killed Benjamin?” Melissa asked.
“We found a witness who seems to know what the murderers look like. So, once he is arrested, you and Hannah will be released in no time, Freya said with a smile. After a brief chat with Melissa, she walked out of the building without telling Radley she was leaving. Instead, she went straight to her car, which was parked at the police station, and returned to the Kaufmann Residence..
Deep down, Freya’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. In fact, her heart had always felt a stab of pain recently every time she saw Radley, but fortunately, she seemed to feel better than the time when she first gained back her memories.
Upon returning to the Kaufmann Residence, Freya informed Noah and Ashley that they could visit Melissa anytime they wanted. “The knife that was deemed to be the evidence in the case is now likely considered to be fake. As long as we can raise questions about that evidence’s authenticity, Melissa and Hannah should be released soon,” Freya said with a smile.
At the same time, Ashley sat in the living room, tears welling up in her eyes as she listened to Freya’s words. Then, Noah sighed and replied, “Freya, you have no idea how grateful we are to you for this!”
Ever since Melissa was suspected and arrested for the murder, Braxton and Freya had been trying their best to help her get out of trouble. Worried about Melissa, Noah even put his work at Marshall Enterprise
ide and rushed all the way back from Vroria.
After Freya took a bit of time to comfort Ashley, the latter finally wiped her tears and smiled. “Alright. Freya, you must be tired after all the trouble you had to go through just to help Melissa. Now, please head upstairs and get some rest.
What about you, Aunt Ashley?”
I’m going to visit Melissa.” Ashley was excited because she had always wanted to visit Melissa every day, Furthermore, she couldn’t stand by and do nothing while her daughter was locked up in a cell room all alone due to a false accusation that was made against her. Moreover, Ashley couldn’t sleep on the floor to keep her daughter company because of the visiting hours fixed by the police. Nevertheless, now that she had learned from Freya that they had been given leeway to visit Melissa for as long as they wanted, she couldn’t wait to accompany her daughter right away.
Freya looked at Sylvia sitting on the sofa and smiled in relief. “Get some rest. She then went back to her bedroom on the second floor, whereupon she turned on her computer and sent two photos of the
suspects that she had received from Radley earlier that day to Ink.
Ink these photos are the suspect’s portrait. Can you help me find out more about their backgrounds?” Green Scylla asked.
Sure Ink replied.
Soon, Brisa appeared in the group chat and responded. Hey, Green Scylla, I’m back to Caltun. Is there

an do for you?
Freya took a moment to think but couldn’t figure out anything for Brisa to do. After all, she and Radley had spent the last few days clearing Melissa and Hannah’s names, although they still hadn’t managed to bring Benjamin’s murderers to justice. Considering how dangerous those two suspects could be, Freyal didn’t think letting Brisa investigate them without knowing much about their hackgrounds was a bad idea. Nevertheless, she was still grateful for the support her friends from The Green Flamation forum gave her. which warmed and touched her heart. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
The issue has basically been addressed. So, why don’t you go to the medical building and stay there for a while? The people there look like they’ll stir up some trouble, Green Scylla answered.
At the same time, Freya furrowed her brows, thinking about the people responsible for the car accidents. that happened to herself and her brother. More importantly, they also sent someone to infiltrate the Kaufmann Residence. Nevertheless, it wasn’t until they targeted Melissa and got someone killed in the process that Freya began to think the situation had gotten out of hand. Soon, she took out The Compendium of Medical Wisdom and stared at it. “What secrets do you hold?” She murmured to
herself with a serious look on her face. Considering how serious things have become, I mustn’t put anyone else in danger just because of this book anymore.
