“Aubree, I only noticed your missed calls now because I was in the shower. What’s up?” Frieda sounded very
concerned.
It was as if the engagement between the Farwells and the Pearsons was never canceled, and they were still on
good terms.
Aubree knew that Frieda only called because of the message she had sent, but since she still needed Frieda’s help,
she decided to play along.
With that thought in mind, Aubree coldly bit her lower lip. “Nothing much. Seeing how we haven’t seen each other
for a few days, I wanted to ask you out.”
Frieda hesitated for a few seconds, but because of Aubree’s threat, she had no choice but to agree to the woman’s

She wanted to follow Jonathan’s advice, but what happened to the Pearsons was too shocking to ignore.
Frieda worried that her family would be in trouble if Aubree really did sell her out.
After confirming the place to meet, the two ended the phone call.
Then, Frieda got changed and was about to walk out the door when she bumped into Jonathan.
“Where are you going?” Jonathan gazed suspiciously at his sister.
In response, Frieda plastered on a smile. “Nowhere. I’ve stayed home for too long, so I wanted to go for a walk.”
Jonathan was still unconvinced, however. “I don’t care if you have to stay home for another few days! Just look at
those comments online. You’d better stay away from Aubree if you don’t want our family to end up like hers!”
Standing still and staring coldly at Frieda, Jonathan had no intention of getting out of his sister’s way.
On top of feeling guilty, Frieda was afraid to meet Aubree then, so she nodded meekly and returned to her room.
Nonetheless, she eventually gave in to her anxiety and called Aubree. “My brother’s not letting me leave the
house…”
“I bet he doesn’t want you to meet me because he has no idea what you did!” voiced Aubree through gritted teeth.
Frieda nodded guiltily. “I can’t let him know. Otherwise, he’ll kill me before Lucian does!”
“Does that mean you’re not afraid that Lucian will find out?” sneered Aubree.
After being rendered speechless for a moment, Frieda hurriedly reassured Aubree of her loyalty to the woman. “I
believe you, Aubree, and I’ll do my best to help you in any way I can. However—”
“Don’t worry. I won’t tell Lucian even if the plan fails, but you have to be a part of it,” interrupted Aubree
unceremoniously as though she knew what Frieda wanted to say.

Frieda finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. “What do you need me to do?”
On the other side, Aubree was sitting alone in the corner of a café.
Because of how widespread the online public opinion was, almost everyone in Horington was discussing the matter.
In fact, it was difficult to find anyone who did not recognize Aubree.
Even the waiter who served her coffee gave her a dirty look.
Aubree could not help but harden her face when reminded of her situation. “How have things developed on the
internet?”
After turning on her computer, Frieda was unsure how to reply to Aubree because the truth about Roxanne was
close to becoming public knowledge.
Almost everyone was praising Roxanne for her beauty and kindness and saying what a perfect match she was for
Lucian.
On the other hand, Aubree, who used to be put on a pedestal, became a laughingstock overnight.
Some even said that Aubree made up the story that she was Lucian’s first crush.
“What’s going on?” Aubree’s heart sank when she heard nothing but silence from the other end of the line.
