The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1025

Chapter 1025 I Will Reward You

Frieda froze when she heard that. Although she hated Roxanne and her kids, she never intended to hurt Estella. After all, doing so would mean making an enemy of Lucian, and nobody in Horington would dare to get on his bad side.

However, Aubree had gotten her involved in her evil deeds without her knowledge. “What’s the matter? Are you scared?” Aubree asked while looking at her coldly. Frieda came back to her senses.

Aubree is right. Regardless of how I feel about the situation, I am indeed in the same boat as her now. Since there’s no running away for me anymore, my best bet is to help Aubree become Lucian’s wife! Once she rises to power, we’ll be able to cover our tracks!

With that in mind, Frieda flashed Aubree a nonchalant smile and replied, “Since when have I ever been scared? Those little b*tches had it coming! They only have their insolence to blame!”

Aubree simply stared at Frieda in silence. The tension was so high that it took Frieda every ounce of willpower she had just to maintain her smile.

After what seemed like forever, Aubree nodded and said, “That’s more like it.” Frieda then mentioned the text message from Cory. “What should we do about the ten million? Do we really give it to him?”

Aubree’s expression gradually grew cold as she gave it some thought.

While waiting for her response, Frieda continued, “He had the audacity to threaten you, so we can’t just let this slide. I’m surprised he dared demand ten million from us!”

“What do you plan on doing about it?” Aubree asked with a chuckle. “We mustn’t pay him the money. Doing so might just provide him with more dirt on us!” Frieda replied.
