The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
Chapter 1501

Chapter 1501

As she stepped out of the hotel, Aubree's mind drew a blank. She had no idea what to do next.

There was no way she could return to the mansion on the outskirts, as Lucian would definitely have it watched.The same could be said of the hotel.

Feeling desperate, she gave Frieda a call.

The latter, who was already sound asleep, was woken up by the ringing of her phone.

Just as she was about to end the call by reflex, she was jolted awake by a glimpse of the caller ID. It was then that a glint ofannoyance flashed across her eyes.

Aubree! When is she going to stop bugging me?

Upon regaining her composure, she answered, “Aubree, is there anything | can do for you?”

“Where are you now? Come to the hotel. I'm downstairs waiting for you. Remember, don't let anyone replace out!”The tension in Aubree's voice couldn't be any more obvious.

Her tone caused Frieda's heart to inexplicably sink. Before she even replied, she had already gotten out of bed.“What's wrong? Did something happen? Why do you want to see me?” she asked while getting dressed.

Aubree answered flatly, “They have evidence against me and have probably called the police too. That's why I've gone intohiding. If you lead anyone to me, I'll drag you down to hell with me!”

Frieda froze as panic began to fill her eyes.Aubree is on the run from the police. Should | help her now? What if | lead them to her?

While she was hesitating, Aubree's voice rang out again. “If you don't show up. the first tiling I'll do when I'm caught is to exposeyour crimes. When that happens, | can't guarantee what my tongue will let slip. If you cross me, I'll definitely make you suffer forit!”

Faced with the blatant threat, Frieda lost her temper and snapped. “You better not cross the line!”

Aubree snorted in response. “You chose this path back then. It's too late for regrets now. You have twenty minutes. If | don't seeyou, you're going down with me!”

With that. Aubree ended the call.

As the call-end tone rang out from her phone, the furious Frieda glowered insidiously.It was then that Cory's words began to echo in her mind.

If | had known this was going to happen, | would've worked with him that night!Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now;

Frieda had no choice but to get herself ready and slip out of her room stealthily.

To avoid her family's notice, she didn't even drive her car. Instead, she flagged down a taxi by the street to send her to the hotel.She knew’ the location well since she was the one wrho made the hotel reservation on Aubree's behalf.

By the time she arrived, twenty minutes had passed. There was also no sign of Aubree anywhere.

Asense of dread began to swell wdtliin her. and she scanned the surroundings anxiously.

“Im here!”

Aubree's voice rang out from an inconspicuous alley.

Given a fright, Frieda took a few seconds to regain her composure before walking over.

“What's your plan?” She gave Aubree a wrary look.

The last thing Aubree had was a plan. “Anything will do as long as | can escape!”

Frieda suggested unreservedly, “Fleeing overseas is your only option. If you stay in the country, the Farwell family will get youeven if the police don't.
