Chapter 148 You Are Stronger Than She Was
Upon hearing this, Freya couldn’t help but smile wistfully. The two offspring of the Lloyd family were indeed intriguing.
One had chosen law, the other medicine, neither

Sawyer continued, “Back then, I was living aimlessly, nothing piqued my interest, except for this one incident I heard about.”
“I told my classmate I wanted to see it for myself. He had been there for a few days, doing an internship with the prison doctor.”
“Money was not an issue for me, so I arranged it and went in.”
“The prison was poorly managed, chaotic and unregulated. Perhaps that’s why Nathaniel chose it in the first place, to target you?”
“I didn’t expect to run into you there. I saw you, distraught, burying the deceased child in a secluded flower pond. Your mental state was clearly unstable.”
“I took you to the warehouse. You were completely unconscious. I asked my classmate to bring painkillers, anti–inflammatory drugs, and saline for disinfection.” Ads by PubFuture
“I stayed with you in that warehouse all night. Honestly, I’ve never been so patient. But there was something about you, something special. Your eyes reminded me of my own.”
Freya gave a bitter smile. She was starting to remember. She had just lost her child and undergone surgery. She felt like she was on the brink of death.
Physical pain she could handle, but the mental anguish was unbearable.
Nathaniel’s attack on her child was more devastating than any physical injury she could sustain.
That night, a kind stranger had taken care of her, but she never imagined it would be Sawyer.
Just a few days ago, his brother Alexander had betrayed her. Now, Sawyer was claiming to be her savior. The world was indeed a strange place, leaving her feeling disoriented.
It seemed the world was a small place, and no one could escape its cyclical nature.
Freya looked at Sawyer, “How do you expect me to repay you?”
Sawyer raised an eyebrow and smiled, “You’re quite… direct.”
Freya responded, “Nothing in this world is without reason, good or bad. Everything has a cause and effect. Since you’ve sought me out and shared so much, you’re clearly not here just for a casual catch–up.”
“If I’m not mistaken, this has something to do with your brother and Nathaniel!”
Sawyer was momentarily taken aback, then burst into laughter, “Conversing with intelligent people is truly refreshing.”

“A few years ago, my father and Nathaniel’s godfather had a business dispute. Nathaniel is ruthless, I won’t elaborate on his methods. You’re well aware of them, aren’t you?”
“My father lost that battle and fell ill. Our family was thrown into chaos. My elder brother Alexander had no choice but to return and take the reins.”
“My mother had taken me abroad, but w appearance.”
ch a crisis at home, I, as the youngest son, had to make an
“My father was gravely ill, but as long as he was alive, I was safe. However, soon after his death, the family was handed over to my elder brother.”
Sawyer’s eyes were icy, “He had changed, become a stranger, and was ruthless even towards my mother and me.”
“I didn’t want to fight him. The Lloyd family’s issues were not my concern. But then he targeted my mother. He drove her to madness, yes, madness.”
“Look at this,” Sawyer handed over an old photo. The girl in the photo was dressed in white, radiating purity and innocence. It was hard to imagine her as a madwoman.
Sawyer spoke slowly, “Freya, when I first saw you three years ago, I thought you resembled my mother. But you’re stronger than she was. You’ve kept your sanity, and you’re a skilled actress!”
