Chapter 82 A Man Named Arcs
Finished
Even though she hadn’t given Peyton the shoes, she had worn them a few times and was planning to discard them to purchase new ones. She was merely seizing the opportunity to do a good deed, but she hadn’t anticipated that Peyton would remember it for so many years.
Peyton expressed her gratitude to Freya with a warm smile. “Freya, you’ve saved my life twice! And now, you’ve rescued me from the pool. I owe you three lives! I’ll do anything you ask of me! I concur with your decision to leave Saeville. I think…”
Peyton lowered her voice, “That creep Nathaniel is likely after you! If you need to get in touch with someone. I can assist you.”
Freya nodded. She was indebted to Peyton, but all she could offer in return was a promise of gratitude.
“Peyton. I promise you a good life. In the future, you’ll reside in a grand villa, cultivate golden flowers in your garden, and own a chain of flower shops.
Peyton wanted to scratch her head, but it was inconvenient. She lifted her arm slightly, looked at Freya, and joked. “Your promise sounds like something a scoundrel would say.”
Freya laughed genuinely. It wasn’t too late. She still had hope.
She wouldn’t wait for Jacob to return from Porejimo. She was curious about what had happened to Jacob in Porejimo. He hadn’t been in touch for several days.
She couldn’t just wait around. She decided to leave Saeville and travel abroad to meet Jacob in Porejimo.
Jacob had asked her to wait, but she couldn’t afford to wait any longer. She was afraid that the people around her would be harmed again. Those people were unhinged.
Freya’s voice dropped to a whisper. Peyton stood up awkwardly and leaned in to hear Freya’s words.
Freya spoke slowly, “Not long ago, Jacob took me to the underground boxing ring in Saeville. He mentioned that if he ever had to leave Sacville for Porejimo, I could seek help from a man named Ares in case of any emergencies.”
“Ares?” Peyton was taken aback and said, “I’ll look for him. Sounds a bit thrilling. Is there a secret code or something?”
Freya was unsure. Jacob had left for Porejimo in a rush. Due to the incident at the ball that night, they hadn’t had the chance to discuss the details.
Freya recalled that when Jacob took her to the underground boxing match, he had casually mentioned something, but one sentence had stuck with her.
He had stated that in Saeville, only he and Ares were unafraid of Nathaniel!
Ever since Freya had awoken from her coma and confronted Nathaniel, he hadn’t shown up again.
In the past few days, she had led a peaceful life, free from humiliation and threats. It was a tranquil
existence.

Even the nurse who administered Freya’s medication seemed a bit frightened. She quickened her pace as she left the room with the empty tray.
The two bodyguards didn’t restrict Freya’s movements. When Peyton accompanied Freya for a stroll in the garden, they didn’t interfere, but they kept a close watch.
Peyton’s arm was healing, and the physical therapy equipment had been removed, but her muscles would che for a while, and she needed regular check–ups.
