"There's nothing much to ask, Ella may need you now, go find her in the past!"

As a best friend, this is all she can do, Ella's current mood must be really bad, what she most wants to see at this moment should be Xavier, hiding in his arms to seek warmth and vent her emotions properly.

After all, this man is her refuge, she can lean on his shoulder, freely lower her own posture, and show her vulnerable side.

From Freya's words, Xavier faintly sensed that something had happened, quickly took out his phone, and called Ella as he walked.

Seeing his anxious look, Freya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that she underestimated Xavier's feelings for Ella.

Xavier, a relatively stable person in terms of personality, always remains calm even in life-threatening situations, but his current panicked appearance proves that Ella has truly entered his heart and become an indispensable part of it.

"Doctor, go to the clinic and find her, she should be there!"

Freya knows Ella well, when she is in a bad mood, she will use work to numb herself.

She didn't answer the phone, proving that her heart was truly in extreme sorrow!

...

Upstairs in the study.

Bradley and Gabriel were discussing matters in the southern country.

After speaking, Gabriel, with no expression on his face, said, "Also, you asked me to investigate the whereabouts of Soul Restorative. Sorry, I still can't find Soul Restorative."

Bradley narrowed his eyes slightly and tapped the table with his slender fingers twice, "What about Shadow, did you find her?"

"No," Gabriel answered truthfully, "After leaving the organization, Shadow seemed to have disappeared from the world. We couldn't find any trace of her. However, according to our investigation, Shadow has been spotted in Zylandia before, but she left too quickly, and our people who tried to track her down were discovered and lost her."

Upon hearing this, Bradley slowly clenched his fist, making a cracking sound as his knuckles turned white. A cold, sharp glint flashed in his lonely and narrow phoenix eyes.

There is no doubt that Shadow and Soul Restorative know each other, and Soul Restorative's disappearance is definitely related to Shadow's escape.

"I suspect that Shadow may have changed her identity, after all, she has studied the art of disguise. It is not difficult for her to change her face. But why are you pursuing Shadow so aggressively?"

When Gabriel received the assassination order issued by Bradley, he was quite shocked.

The assassination order from the S organization would trigger operatives hidden all over the world to relentlessly pursue the target.

Bradley had never used this token before, even when dealing with the Loganfamily, he had never mobilized such a large-scale operation.

But now, for the sake of Shadow, he had activated the assassination order, and Gabriel still did not know what was going on.

"In the south, bribing Lucy and Serina to confront Freya in court, attempting to defame and imprison my woman, this is the first crime; at the fashion show in the capital, impersonating the identity of Soul Thought to assassinate Freya, this is the second crime; even buying off Arthur and Jinny, poisoning the old man, and putting lethal poison on Freya's bird's nest, intending to kill both my wife and daughter, this is the third crime. All these incidents combined are enough for her to die a thousand times over. Do I need to continue?"

Gabriel was stunned by the words.

He never expected that Shadow, who had always been loyal to Bradley, would commit such a heinous act.

The three crimes listed by Bradley had seriously touched his bottom line, no wonder he was so angry that he issued the assassination order against Shadow.

This time, Shadow had truly provoked Bradley.

Gabriel frowned deeply and asked, "So you've found Shadow, how do you plan to deal with her?" The man's lips curved into a cruel smile. Those who knew Bradley were aware that he rarely smiled, except for his gentle smile towards Freya. For others, his smile meant someone was in for big trouble. "I don't care how you do it, but I want to see her in a month. If she dies, let her die. Bring back her body and dump it in the sea. If she miraculously survives, follow the organization's rules. Keep her alive and slowly torture her until life is worse than death!" Hearing this, Gabriel shuddered violently. He was well aware of Bradley's methods, as was the fate of Kevin. Keeping someone barely alive, living in constant agony as if being chased by wolves every day, unable to die but enduring endless suffering. This kind of torture could push someone to the extreme, making them regret ever living in this world. "Bradley, this is too much..." Gabriel hesitated, after all, Shadow had grown up in front of them. So cruelly torturing her seemed incredibly inhumane.

"What, do you care for her?" Bradley turned his head and looked at him with icy eyes, "If you are unable to handle this task, I will have Shadow take care of it personally." Gabriel frowned heavily. Having Shadow handle it... Sibling killing, this... He clenched his fists, sighed deeply, and said, "Forget it, Shadow is indeed reckless, ending up in this situation today is entirely her own fault. I will do my best to find her and capture her alive!" After saying that, he stood up ready to leave. At that moment, Bradley suddenly called out to him, saying, "Oh, one more thing." "Hmm, go ahead." "I want you to investigate the incident of Charlotte being humiliated while drunk nineteen years ago, and also the identity of the man who had a relationship with her. Report to me immediately as soon as you have any information."

Bradley, this matter has passed for nineteen years. It may be difficult to investigate, but I must know the truth in the face of difficulty. Feel free to conduct the investigation, and let me know if you need any information.

Although Freya doesn't care about her own origins, he cannot bear to see her being wronged. Therefore, he will thoroughly investigate this matter on her behalf. After all, he knows that she has too many questions in her heart and wants to hear the truth from that man.

"Yes, but it has been too long. It will be difficult to investigate, I need time." Bradley coldly replied, "You may."

After Gabriel left, Bradley leaned back on the leather seat. He closed his eyes slightly, pinched his brow with his fingers, and carefully recalled what Gabriel had said. Shadow is proficient in disguise. If she really changes her face and blends into the crowd, it won't be easy to catch her.

It seems that waiting passively is not working, so... I really have to take a risk and lure her out on my own.

Footsteps are heard outside, Freya knocked on the door, "Can I come in?"

The man's thoughts were interrupted, he calmed himself and then said, "Yes."

Freya pushed the door open and entered.

Seeing the man's uneasy expression, she narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "What's wrong, what happened?"

As she spoke, she walked closer, grabbed his hand, and checked his pulse.

Seeing that his heart rate and pulse were normal, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to speak, the man suddenly pulled her onto his lap.

"Freya, there's something I think I need to tell you, do you want to hear it?"
