HappyNovelChapter 720:
At exactly nine o'clock that night, Freya arrived at the facility. Lawrence was already outside waiting. When he
saw her, he offered a courteous smile. “Ms. Briggs, you're here.”
“Where's Kristian?”

She remembered—Kristian had made a deal with Lawrence to rescue her. And knowing Lawrence, there was no
