Chapter 1674
In fact, Tristan was unaware that Matthew merely wanted to provoke Freya when he attempted to hit her with the
car earlier on. When he walked past the manhole cover before dinner, he had noticed that it was faulty. He
merely ignored this, but when Freya suddenly turned up, he realized that he could use it as a trap. He purposely
made a round in front of her to provoke her so that she would chase after them. Sure enough, Freya fell into his
trap when she stepped on the manhole while she was chasing after them. Seeing that, Matthew seized on to the
opportunity and sped the car toward her to get rid of the monster on the spot.
As Freya stared at the car which was driving in her direction, she frowned while she grabbed onto the scabbard
with her right hand. Just as the car was about to hit her, something unexpected happened. Matthew suddenly
turned the steering wheel, and the car sped past Freya before hitting on the wall at the side. Freya, who was
ready to attack earlier on, was unharmed as she stood in the manhole. She was stunned as she didn't expect

by.
Even Freya doubted that she would survive the crash earlier on. Why did Matthew suddenly change his mind?
she wondered. She immediately snapped out of her thoughts and jumped out of the manhole. On the other
hand, Matthew was on the run again after failing to kill Freya.
Freya remained at the spot and didn't chase after them. When she looked behind her, she saw a little girl holding
a basket of flowers standing there, looking dumbfounded. She seemed to be startled by what just happened. It
was apparent that the little girl would be hit too if Matthew hit Freya with the car. Thus, the reason he dodged
her wasn't because he didn't want to kill her, but because he didn't want to harm the little girl.
After staring at the little girl for a while, she recognized that it was the sgirl who had sold flowers to
Matthew earlier or. She was holding another basket of flowers and was ready to sell them. Freya could tell that
she was under the control of syndicates who forced children to sell flowers on the streets. When Freya looked at
the little girl, there was a rare hint of tenderness in her eyes.
With that, she walked over to her girl and caressed her head before saying softly, "Don't be scared. Everything's
fine now!"
"Miss, would you like to buy sflowers?" the girl asked while nodding.
"Wait forhere. I'll be back soon to buy some," Freya answered as she gazed at the basket of flowers.
Right after, Freya stood up and ran into an alley. Matthew, who had missed the opportunity to kill Freya,
immediately drove away from the city; it wasn't safe for them to stay there anymore since Freya had managed to
find them.

After around ten minutes, they managed to drive out of the city. When Matthew was sure that they weren't being
chased, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"How did Freya manage to find us here?" Matthew asked.
"I have no idea. How could she manage to find us when not a single person knows that we are here?" Tristan
looked bewildered.
The car was approaching a turn just as both of them were trying to figure out the situation. After they drove past
it, they suddenly saw a figure standing in the middle of the road. It was Freya! Upon seeing that, he frowned and
was surprised at how fast she managed to catch up to them.
Since they were on a narrow mountain road, turning back wouldn't be an option. Matthew gritted his teeth as he
slammed on the accelerator. He had no other choice but to do so. Just then, Freya, who was gripping onto the
scabbard, drew the sword out when the car was approaching her. She then gripped the sword with both hands
and slashed the car.
