A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1986

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1986

The girls from the village were all extremely loyal. Hence, they would definitely keep their mouths shut. After all, they were constantly visiting Freya at the hospital. Hence, their actions would not raise any suspicions.

“Don’t worry, Joan. We know what to do.”

“That’s right. We must bring the culprit to justice,” the girls chorused.

To prevent the news from being leaked, Joan arranged for Freya’s ward to be changed. Leveraging on Dustin’s connections, Freya was moved to a luxurious VIP room on the top floor.

“Ms. Watts, I don’t know what else to say other than thank you.” Freya’s mom held her hand tightly.

Joan’s gaze darkened in response. In truth, she was partly responsible for what happened to Freya.

“Mrs. Brooks, don’t worry. This place is safe. If you need anything, I’m just a phone call away. Also, if anyone asks, it’s better that you tell them Freya has gone back to her hometown to recuperate. Or else, I fear…”

“I understand. Don’t worry,” Freya’s mom replied resolutely.

Everyone knew how important this was to Joan. Hence, they didn’t want her efforts to be in vain.

Ring! Ring!

“Hello? Joan, are you alright? I heard that you’re in the hospital.” Dustin sounded concerned.

“Oh, I’m fine. I’ll explain when I’m back.” Joan ended the call right away.

Before that, the police had discovered that there was more to the case than it met the eye. However, it was subsequently suppressed by someone influential.

Nevertheless, there were still some honest policemen who would pursue the truth and bring the perpetrator to justice.

“Don’t worry. This is our duty anyway. As long as she is in the hospital, we will guarantee her safety.”

Now that everything was in place, all that was left was for Freya to recover.

Joan could not allow her to be hurt again. Clenching her fists, a cold glint flashed in her eye.
