MainNovelChapter 556:
Norah didn’t respond. She left the café, cool on the outside, stormy within.
Once in her car, the mask fell. Worry etched itself across her face. She locked the doors, rolled up the windows,
and placed a call.
“Miss Russell, awaiting your instructions,” a male voice responded.
“Cut off all contact with Melvin. He's pretending to switch sides and betray Freya,” Norah said, rubbing her
temples, surprised by how sideways things had gone. “Cancel tomorrow's plans too.”
There was a moment of stunned silence, but then cthe reply: “Understood.”
“Dig into Freya Briggs,” Norah added, a flicker of panic rising beneath her words. “I want every bit of information
on her. Fast.”
“Got it.”

Of course, Freya didn’t lay everything bare—she just touched on Ashley’s car accident and the bribe involving
Melvin.
Upon hearing everything, Farrah was utterly stunned. “Wait—her? That doesn’t make any sense. | always
thought she was genuinely kind, especially since she was the one who helpedmake that call back then.”
It was baffling. Truly beyond belief.
“I was a little taken aback myself,” Freya admitted honestly.
“I just don’t get it.” Farrah’s mind couldn't grasp it. “If she was trying to mess with you, why would she go out of
her way to help me?”
“There are two possible reasons,” Freya had already given this plenty of thought.
Farrah asked, “What are they?”
