Chapter 38 Jacob Believed Her
Jacob ate his dinner, so he did not have an appetite; he was serving the food to Freya.
He felt that he was closer to her now; she even took the initiative to call him and have dinner with him.
“What’s wrong with your vocal chords?” Jacob was obsessed with her voice.
When he was playing with Freya back then, he always heard her singing, and he had to admit that the Gomez family had raised her up excellently; she could play piano and guitar, draw, be an excellent equestrian…
And she could even sing really well.
Freya tightened her grip on the plate, and she said hoarsely, “They locked me in an enclosed storage room, and they burned my clothes and stuffed them in.”
Jacob’s face crumpled.
She said calmly, “And they think it’s not fun enough later on, and they drag the out, and they stuff my mouth with burning cotton buds….
“Let’s eat; let’s not talk about it anymore.” Jacob sat straight, and his expression seemed off.
He subconsciously poured a glass of fresh juice for her; his hand was trembling.
She looked into his eyes and said, “Jacob, I’m not a murderer… I didn’t push Abigail; I…
“I believe you!” He looked at her, and he responded, believe you now; I’ll investigate it for you; let’s do one thing at a time.”
Jacob believing she had softened a spot in her heart, she gasped for a second.
The playful Jacob could even believe her, but that man would just believe her.
Right from the start, he saw her as the villain.
She was gripping her fork so hard that her knuckles turned pale.
Her left hand was underneath the table; it would ache during changes of weather
She looked at Jacob with a complicated look. Jacob felt that she looked so innocently cute, and he subconsciously caressed her hair.
“I might have been busy recently; something happened to my business. At most, after three months, I will bring you away from Saeville. You will get a check–up on both your face and hand, and then your vocal chords later on. I’m worried it will be too much for you if all the surgeries happen at the same
titne.”
She nodded her head; she felt that she should believe in him for being able to bring her away from this

Chapter 38 Jacob Believed Her
Jacob continued to say, “I’ve contacted a nursery home abroad; they were experienced in treating coma patients.” And by then, we can buy a house near there, so that it’ll be easy for you to visit Auntie Linda.”
“Nathaniel might be dominating in Sacville, but he can’t possibly influence you overseas. Once your hand has recovered, I believe that your talent won’t go to waste.”
“If your friend, Peyton, would like to go with us, we can bring her along to be your companion.”
“Oh, right, you and your friend should apply for a new passport as soon as possible.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“You should know about these procedures since you used to go abroad a lot.” Her heart felt warm, and she nodded.
This was the best arrangement she could ask for, so she would not ask for more. All she wanted was a normal, ordinary life.
She raised her head and looked at him. “Mr. Rivera.”
“No, just call me Jacob; you can also call me Crocodile like you used to.”
She flushed hearing his words; she said that he was a big bad fish, and for whatever reason she addressed him as a crocodile.
Time flew by; her life was drastically changed and not the same as it used to be.
The following day, Jacob brought Freya to the police station. Everything was settled with him hiring a lawyer who was efficient.
