Chapter 1831 The man leading the group of three took a puff on a cigarette, and his gaze landed on the room‘s
door across the hallway. He did not see any light shining through the seams, making it obvious that no one was
there.
He snuffed out the cigarette. “Keep an eye on this whole floor for me and wait for them to come back. Remember,
grab the woman first.”
When the footsteps went further away, Freyja‘s clothes were. already soaked in a cold sweat. She then realized
Colton‘s hand was still covering her mouth, so she gently pushed it off her face.
Colton regained his senses and retracted his hand.
Freyja leaned against the door and sneered. “Do you believe me now?”
Colton did not utter anything. He caught a glimpse of her lacerated palm and grabbed her wrist.
She pulled her hand away instantly. “What are you doing?”
He stared at her. “Your acting skills are just so–so.”
Freyja scoffed. “Didn‘t you just say that my acting skills are so fabulous that I even managed to trick your brother,
and you‘re now saying that my acting skills are poor?” “Why did you buy that thing?”
“What?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that his gaze was fixed on the bag she had brought back, Freyja finally came back to her senses and
reacted, then turned her face away and gnashed her teeth. “I grabbed it by mistake.”
‘I grabbed it in such a tense situation, so how would I have the time to focus on what I took?‘
“Grabbed it by mistake?” Colton scoffed and approached her. “I think you‘re just trying to cover your actions with a
lie.”
Freyja pushed him away and went to pack her luggage. “If you have the time to mock me, you might as well think
about how we can get out of this room.”
There were no lights in the room, and the interior dimmed gradually as the sun set and the sky darkened.
The weather was hot, and the air conditioner was not turned on, so the whole room felt extremely stuffy.
Colton opened the French window, and the sea breeze blew in through the window and made them feel a little
better.
Freyja sat on the couch and could only munch on the snacks she had bought to fill her stomach.
Hearing the crunching voice that was coming from behind him, Colton was a little irritated. He turned his head and
was about to say something when he remembered that he was the one who had thrown her dinner away.
However, he could not help but think that those people would have found and caught her when they came back just
now if he
had not come after her and asked her for an explanation.
“How are things on Nollace‘s side?” he asked her.
Freyja raised her head. “I don‘t know yet. Maybe he’s also trying to figure things out. But no matter whether they‘re
the ones who come back or we‘re to go out, we‘ll be discovered.”
After saying that, she sighed and could not help but complain,” It‘s really bad to encounter this kind of situation
during a vacation, but it‘s even worse to have to stay with someone.”
Colton‘s gaze dimmed. “What did you just say?”
Freyja shrugged and ate a biscuit. “It‘s nothing.”
At that moment, in a hotel near their resort...
Nollace stood in front of the French window and called Edison. Edison told him something, and his expression turned
gloomy in an instant. “Are you sure it‘s him?”
Edison replied, “I‘m sure. He‘s someone who works for Donald, but he colluded with Ken secretly long ago.
“Otherwise, Ken wouldn‘t have found that you had secret dealings with Donald and chosen to kill Mr. Reese in order
to sow discord between the both of you.”
Nollace did not say a single word.
‘I was still wondering why Ken would have the guts to frame Donald through Jonah‘s death so that Donald would

next to Donald.
‘However, even up until the moment he died, I don‘t think Ken would‘ve thought that his men would also be
interested in Jonah Reese‘s inheritance.‘
“You‘re to arrange for a group of people to come over and be on standby secretly. It‘s known that they‘ve sent
three men here. I don‘t know if others will be waiting around for a chance to ambush us.”
After Nollace finished speaking, he gave off a gloomy smirk. “By the way, deliver my words to Mr. Matthews too. I
believe that he‘s a pro when it comes to picking out moles.”
He then hung up the call and turned around.
Seeing the figure hiding outside the door, he placed his cell phone on the desk and chuckled. “Someone was found
out when she stole a glance the other day, and she‘s been discovered again while eavesdropping this time. You‘ve
not grown at all, huh?”
