In her haste to return to The Kennedys, Freya was taken aback by the unexpected absence of Walter from the
office that day.
He was sequestered in the bedroom, engrossed in a phone call, his countenance etched with seriousness. Freya
hesit ated at the doorway, her ears straining to catch snippets of the conversation, but Walter's contributions
were sparse, limited to noncommittal affirmations of, "Mmm, okay, go on."
Despite her best efforts to eavesdrop, she gleaned no useful information.
No sooner had Walter ended the call than Freya closed the distance between them, her voice echoing softly in
the room, "Walter."
His cell phone disappeared into his pocket as he turned to regard her. "Why's your hair all wet?" he queried, his
hand reaching out to smooth her damp tresses.
Yet, Freya was painfully aware of the lack of genuine emotion behind his seemingly tender gesture-it was as if he
was merely leafing through a book, even as his fingers brushed through her hair. Freya found herself riveted by
the sight of this man, his sturdy figure silhouetted against the rain-lashed window, his features softened, as
though a grayish filter had been cast over him.
In that moment, her guilt seemed to dissipate. She launched herself into Walter's arms, her grip around his waist
unyielding. "Walter, let's go abroad."His hand, which had been stroking her hair, stilled. He looked down at her,
his expression one of puzzlement. "Why the sudden urge to leave the country?""I'm scared."""What are you
scared of?"Freya shook her head, her fear rendering her mute. She was terrified that Walter would find her cruel.

After all, in her eyes, Walter had always been a gentle soul who wouldn't fancy a woman with malevolent
intentions.
Walter's gaze flickered, and he resumed stroking her hair. "I can't, my dear. The company matters haven't been
settled yet. If | leave now, they'll think I've absconded with funds."
"I don't care. | just want to go overseas with you, take Harold with us, and the three of us can live abroad forever,
never returning. Who cares what they say when we won't be here to hear it?"
"But | can't," Walter reiterated softly, his voice gentle yet his resolve firm. He couldn't leave everything would be
lost. All his efforts would be for naught. How could he just go?
Freya looked up at him. "You really won't go? Can't you... for me... cwith me?"Walter met her gaze silently.
His silence was his answer. Freya clenched her fingers, seeming to muster her will, and said softly, "Whispered,
the thing with Valerie... | did it."

Walter listened intently to her words,

and we're fleeing from a crime."l..."

Freya hesitated after hearing this,
"But what if they start to suspect me?
Wouldn't that mean | can't escape?"'It
