Chapter 826
It seemed that everything he said had gone down the drain!
Frederick was done sugar-coating things for her. "I also want to live for myself! I won't be with you!" Whether in life or death, the person he loved was Alicia! He didn't want her to be sad. Even if he had to go to hell because of her, he wouldn't regret it!
Taking her illness into account, he couldn't bear to say the last sentence out loud and add salt to her wound.
Even though she had done terrible things, she was leaving the world soon. He didn't want to be like her! Subconsciously, Frederick still respected life!
The sound of choking sobs could be heard. Frederick could imagine just how hared the person on the other end of the line was crying her eyes out. It was his turn to stay silent. He wanted to give her time to process this and accept it.
What he didn't know was that on the other end of the line, Danica was not only crying a river, but there was also a pool of darkness surrounding her. In an instant, Danica's nails were broken.
"You really are cruel! Since you are so ruthless to me, don't blame me for being heartless to you!
You will regret it! I will make you come and beg me in person to be with me!"
"You'll definitely come and kneel before me!"
The last sentence seemed to have used up all her strength. Every word seemed to be said with her jaw clenched. She shouted at the top of her lungs, hurting Frederick's ears. His heart dropped a beat as a terrible feeling within him arose.
"What are you planning to do again? Don't mess around! Hey!"
Silence. Hitting his phone, Frederick's eyelids kept twitching. "What did she mean by this? Why do I suddenly feel so uneasy?"
Frederick instinctively looked for the unknown number that called him earlier. Then, he paused. "What's wrong with me? Why are my thoughts affected by her words?" He questioned himself.
He closed him eyes for a moment, before putting his hand down. However, he could not get rid of the uneasiness he was feeling. His intuition was ringing like an alarm.
People were not scary; the scariest were those who were not afraid of death.
Obviously, Danica had become the latter. She had gone mad. At that point, he believed that she would do absolutely anything to get what she wanted!
However, what exactly could she do?
All kinds of possibilities flashed through his mind. He picked up his phone and dialed another number. "Chet, come in!"
There were only so many people he cared about. His grandmother had accompanied Miranda back to her hometown in the countryside. Danica might not be able to find where that was. Hence, the only person he cared about the most was Alicia! As long as he sent someone to keep an eye on Danica and secretly sent more people to protect Alicia, he should be able to get a good handle of the situation!
Tapping his head, Frederick felt the migraine threatening to split his head wide open.
"Was there really no way for me to deal with this crazy woman? Did she say that out of anger or was she serious? A sick woman... Even if she really wanted to do something, she can't possibly see it through!" He thought to himself.
She was already at death's door. Did he have to have her blood on his hands? That was the last resort! Although he didn't mind, it was just not worth getting into trouble for that woman.
It was better to be safe than sorry. That day, after Chet came in, they engaged in a discussion for a long while, planning things out ahead of time. Three days later in the women's prison in Casterwich City, Willy suddenly disappeared without a trace again. Lauren sat in her cell, turning the pages in a book, feeling extremely impatient.
Zedd's engagement and him going overseas was just around the corner. "That d*mn Willy. He wouldn't go missing after eating and drinking to his heart's content, would he? Is he shotting me?" Lauren thought to herself.
After closing the book, Lauren paced back and forth in the empty cell.
What was wrong with her recently? Why couldn't she calm down? She was someone who did research. Patience was her strength, and frustration
was a no-no.
Since he had come here, life in prison, which was originally slightly lonely, suddenly became torturous.
She seemed to trust him from the bottom of her heart. She was well aware that a well-known person of Casterwich City would not waste his time playing tricks on a nobody like her in prison, but she couldn't help feeling hesitant about this.
In the past, when she looked at the iron bars before her, and the sun outside the window, her mind would be empty and she would be void of any thoughts. However, at that moment, she wanted to get out of there.
Having nothing to do, she went back to flipping through a book from the table. The book was crammed full of words, but she couldn't process a single one of them.
Although she had also lost so much,
she had to admit that since he came here, her life had had a big
difference. Not only did she eat well every day, but she also didn't have to participate in daily work anymore. Occasionally, she would attend lectures just for show.
Other than not having the freedom to move around, all she had was a cold and empty room. It wasn't very different from the feeling of staying in bed for the weekend.
If she wanted, she could stay in bed
all day. Although there was no phone and computer, she had books. Even if she wanted to dress up and read the newspaper, as long as it was nothing too excessive, the warden would accept it and turn a blind eye to her situation
Obviously, whether it was for power or money, Willy must have done all of it!
She should have been used to such a quiet and unambitious life!
Sitting by the bed, flipping through her book, Lauren couldn't help sighing.
Why did her most comfortable life become so uncomfortable?
"Willy, the day is approaching. You b*stard, what are you doing? You said that you would not go back on your words! You are a dog! When you feel like it, you would come and tease me. When you don't, you're nowhere to be seen..."
As she subconsciously hit the book, Lauren's heart was racing again. At that moment, footfalls could be heard, and at the same time, a bell rang.
It was time for food!
That was also one of the perks she received. She didn't have to line up to get food in the canteen anymore and could enjoy better treatment in prison. Not only was the food better, but they would also be sent to her room.
"Thank you."NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Taking over the tray, Lauren habitually and politely nodded. After the warden left, she sat down on her cell floor.
There were three dishes and one bowl of soup on the tray. There was meat and vegetables. Although there weren't much, they were more than anyone could have asked for in a place like this. There were ribs, a steamed bun, and a small
dessert.
These were the treatments that she had been receiving recently. They were probably part of the privilege he had given her!
Only by looking at them could she feel his existence, and have confirmation that everything was real.
Just as Lauren picked up some cake to put it into her mouth, she heard rushing footsteps. The next second, a beautiful woman with a ponytail, English vest and short boots rushed in. She was fashionable and seemed to be dressed in a practical horse-riding outfit.
