Freya arranged for Brisa to room on the second floor.

That was mainly for the sake of convenience because Freya, Sylvia, and Brisa would be living on the second floor. Meanwhile, Isabella and Braxton had the whole third floor to themselves.

Braxton returned from work around the evening. Once he did, Freya specifically pulled him aside and brought him up to speed.

Braxton had a serious expression on his face as he listened to what she had to say.

Freya sat beside him and said, “Brax, we have confirmation that Jamie is alive. In fact, there’s a high possibility that he has become even more unstable than before. Izzy is in a vulnerable position right now. It’s not very feasible even if we arrange for them to go on a cruise somewhere far away from the eye of the storm. Instead, it’s actually better for us to arrange for reliable people to stand guard when we aren’t home.”

Braxton trodded solemnly before replying, “I understand.”

Just as they were about to wrap things up, Isabella popped in after decimating everyone in chess.

“You’re home!”

Isabella had an orange in her hand as she playfully ran into Braxton’s arms.

Braxton took the orange and peeled it for her. The sweet and affectionate scene made Freya smile.

“Isabella, how you’ve changed! You’re so gentle now.”

Isabella leaned into Braxton’s embrace and winked at Freya before teasing. “Well, are you jealous?”

Freya simply chuckled at her.

Braxton handed Freya half of the orange before joining in on the fun, saying. “Don’t be jealous. I care about you too, Frey.”

“Thank you, but I’m so full after eating so much sugar. Freya giggled.

Since they had already said all that needed to be said, Freya tacitly left the couple to have some alone time.
