Chapter 45 The Heirloom Ring

After Sylvia left, Freya changed the TV channel again with the remote control.

Even though she had seen some of the shows two years prior, she couldn’t recall the ending, so re- watching them felt new.

Freya was engrossed in the show when her phone rang, and when she checked it, she saw that Radley was calling.

Freya clicked her tongue. The last time, this jerk informed her that his grandma was ill and wanted to speak with her later that evening to discuss something, but ten days later, she had still not heard from

him.

Answering the phone lazily, Freya said, “What’s up, Mr. Monaghan?”

On the other end of the line, Radley’s voice was cold and stern. “Freya, is my grandma with you?”

Freya’s relaxed nerves tightened instantly. She sat up straight and asked, “Why would she be with me? Did she get lost?”

Radley responded in an icy tone. “Yes. She kept saying she wanted to see you, so I thought she might come to you after she recovered.”

“Come to me?” Freya hurriedly got up. Tm leaving right now to look for her. You should also send someone to find her!”

Where would Grandma go if she got lost?

Freya, dressed in her home clothes, got into and started her car, only to realize she had no memory of anything.

She’d overheard some young girls talking about the general direction of Smalzot Yard at a banquet she’d been to before.

As Freya approached Smalzot Yard, she noticed an elderly person walking along the roadside from a distance. Worried about Daniella, Freya dashed out of the car and went after her.

“Grandma!”

“Oh, it’s Frey! I was just going to see you.” Daniella smiled sweetly.

“Grandma, why are you walking around by yourself?” Freya spoke somewhat irritably and bitterly as she had been worried sick this whole time.

Daniella took Freya’s hand and gave her something cool to the touch. “Frey, I’ve been meaning to give you this but I kept forgetting.”
