Chapter 1255

“Freyja, that won’t be possible. I’m in the countryside right now.

But tell grandmother that I will come and see her as soon as I return to Preagend.”

Freyja frowned in confusion.

“Why are you in the countryside? Is there something you need to take care of there?”

“My grandma had a car accident. I had to come back and take care of her.”

“Oh my God! Is she alright? Shouldn’t she be brought to Preagend for treatment?”

“Thanks, Freyja, but that won’t be necessary. It’s better that she stay put than travel. She’ll be treated in

the countryside for now.”

Claudia who was listening in on the conversation furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Then, she motioned

for Freyja to ask how the accident came about.

Freyja nodded and asked into the phone, “Mrs. Thomas, was your grandmother’s accident actually just

an accident?”

Millie shook her head on the other end of the line.

“It wasn’t.

Someone deliberately hit my grandma.”

“A deliberate act, I see. And who is the culprit? Have they been arrested?” Freyja and Claudia

exchanged a meaningful glance as Freyja kept talking on the phone.

“We reported the case to the police and the person was caught and arrested. However, the police are

still doing some investigations to find out the mastermind behind it,” Millie explained.

Freyja nodded and said, “Please take good care of yourself over there.”

Millie smiled softly and asked after Claudia.

“I will. What about grandmother? How is she doing?”

After a small nod from Claudia, Freyja said, “She’s fine. Don’t worry about her.”

After the call, Claudia’s brows were still furrowed. As soon as Shera returned, Millie had to go to the

countryside. This was no coincidence. It was giving Shera ample time to get closer to Marcus.

““Freyja, send someone with some high-quality supplements to go and visit Millie’s grandmother in the

countryside tomorrow,” Claudia instructed after a while.

At the Cloud Villa.

Marcus returned home and found Shera standing at the door, hugging her arms to herself. When she

saw Marcus coming, she stared at him with watery eyes, shivering like an injured little deer.

“Marcus, you’re finally back.”

“What are you doing here?” Marcus asked coldly, placing his thumb on the fingerprint lock to open the

door.
