Chapter 347 Facing the Past The car stopped in the underground parking lot.
Frey and Nathaniel took the elevator to her floor together. She glanced at Nathaniel, who was always following behind her, and finally couldn't help but say, "Goodbye, Mr. Nathaniel!" Nathaniel's heart ached terribly. This obstinate woman, who refused to acknowledge her feelings even when clothed, had enjoyed their night together at the castle.
Her trembling body had been the most honest and least deceptive part of her.
But now, as soon as they got off the plane, she acted like they were strangers again.
"Frey, letstay with you. I don't trust leaving you alone," Nathaniel insisted.

He was always a few steps behind, and when he managed to catch up, she would slip away again, leaving him to continue his pursuit.
"Okay, okay! I'll sleep across from you. If you need anything, call me." With a rare expression of grievance, Nathaniel watched as Frey ignored him, turned around, opened the door, and walked in.
He wanted to follow, but the door was shut in his face with a bang, stopping him in his tracks.
The court date arrived quickly. Frey chose a black dress for the occasion, pairing it with a long white sweater. Before leaving, she slipped a bear keychain into her bag. Three years ago, shortly after she was imprisoned, she found out she was pregnant.
At that time, she had nothing but this teddy bear keychain.
Beaten and tortured, she would hide in a corner, touch her belly, and tell her unborn child to be as strong as the bear.
But the child didn't survive.
Clutching the teddy bear tightly, Frey recalled how many times she had taken it out. Much of its coating had worn off. She placed it in her bag, walked out, and drove to the courthouse. en Abigail's case generated a lot of controversy and public attention.
Nathaniel worried that Frey wouldn't be able to handle the reporters, asked Taylor to accompany her and help fend them off. Frey did not refuse his kindness.

"Ms. Frey! What do you want to say to the media during this court session?" "Ms. Frey, I heard that the case three years ago was unjust. Are you going to appeal?" "Ms. Frey! Is Mr. Nathaniel involved in this case?" Frey's steps faltered. This time, she had not involved Nathaniel in the case.
The battle between Abigail and her was personal. The rumors involving the three of them were blocked by Taylor and the others, keeping the deeper issues under wraps. After all, if this case affected Nathaniel, his situation would becvery delicate.
Frey didn't want to force him to admit his mistakes from three years ago. It wasn't just Abigail who had sent her to hell, it was also Nathaniel. "Ms. Frey, someone said they saw you and Mr. Nathaniel in Stanna recently. Is it true?" Frey was stunned. How had the paparazzi uncovered that? "No comment!" She smiled faintly, turned, and walked into the court. The reporters were blocked from following her.
Frey sat at the plaintiff's table. This trial was about Abigail hiring om someone to kill, torture, and bully in En prison.
