Freya chuckled. “You have the Costner family to back you, and I’ll have my
sister-in-law to back me in the future. If Ryan dares bully me, I’ll get my sister-in-
law to slaughter him.”
“Well, this is unexpected.” Catherine was in a daze for a long time before she
could digest the news. “But your brother is indeed a good man. Jessica has
good taste.”
“He is, but you weren’t interested in him when I introduced him to you back
then.” Freya snorted.
“Your brother looks at me like a sister.”
Catherine shrugged helplessly. “By the way, do you need me to talk to your
future sister-in -law? About the countless times that you’ve tried to matchmake
your brother and me?”
“...It was my fault, Madam Jones.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFreya immediately put her head on her office desk, and she was on the verge of
crying.
“Madam Jones?” Catherine pulled Freya’s ear. “We’re the same age. How dare
you call me that way, Madam Lynch.”
Being addressed as either Madam Jones or Madam Lynch made them sound old.
Freya decided not to hurt Catherine anymore. “ Let bygones be bygones, alright? Cathy, please don’t tell her that.”
“Are you that frightened of your new sister-in -law?” Catherine found it amusing.
“No. I’m frightened of my brother.” Freya sighed. “Although my brother usually pulls a long face, he really pampers
Jessica. If I try to destroy their relationship, he might kick me out of the house.”
Catherine was not surprised. Forrest might look as though he did not care about relationships, but he was an honest
man. Once he fell in love with someone, he would be serious about the relationship.
“I’ll have to prepare a gift for your brother then.”
The smile on Catherine’s face gradually faded. “By the way, the day Sarah will be sentenced to death has been set.
It’ll be the 3rd of next month.”
“Huh? She’s still alive?” Freya was stunned. “ I thought she was dead.”
“...From being given the death sentence to its execution takes some time. The process is considered fast for
Sarah,” Catherine said, feeling speechless.
“Oh, okay. I thought she had died long ago.”
Indeed, Freya was unbothered about Sarah.
After all, she was living a happy life now.
With her brother getting married soon, she even felt that luck was on the Lynch family’s side.
Catherine no longer saw the trace of sadness on Freya’s face.
She smiled, thinking that this situation was good.
All she hoped was that... Eliza could be as optimistic as Freya. She could not
understand why Eliza’s eyes revealed a deep sense of sorrow when Eliza was so
young. • • •
In prison, Sarah was locked in the innermost cell.
When she got into jail, she had cried, kicked up a fuss, broken down, felt
hopeless, and even regretted her actions before.
If she were given another chance, she certainly would not have tried everything

men in Canberra, she would not have grown greedy and wicked over time.
Every day, she was consumed by fear as she counted down the days till her
death, within three short months, she had been mentally tortured until she
became skin and bones.
Even her hair had fallen a lot, making her look much older than a 50-year-old
woman.
“Sarah Neeson, someone’s here to visit you.”
All of a sudden, the door opened, and she was taken out.
Only when Sarah entered the reception room featuring a special glass could she
see the man outside. The man was dressed in a white shirt and a pair of black
pants. He looked tall and noble with a pair of golden-rimmed glasses on his
nose. At first glance, he was good looking and elegant. However, upon closer
look, the corners of the man’s lips were dull and thin. 1
