Chapter 2521
Hal jumped on top of the pile of trash and started digging as if it found the target. His owner
said, “Dogs have a very strong sense of smell. I’m guessing it’s buried down there.”
Hal barked a few times, and two villagers started helping with digging.
Soon, they found a new bag under the trash. The villager picked it up. “Is it this one?”
Colton walked forward, took it, and chuckled. “It is.”
He opened it, and other than money, the ID and passport were still inside. There was also
the key to a safe in the bank that was squashed behind the passport.
That was what Freyja had inherited from her grandfather after his passing. Freyja had asked
Colton to keep it, so he always brought it around with him. He wouldn’t be able to explain to
her if he lost it.
He was glad he found it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtColton suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the floor.
“Colton!”
“Mister!”
When he woke up, it was already evening. Freyja, who was sitting next to the bed, saw that
he was awake, so she got up and looked at him. “You’re up.”
He asked, “How long was I out for?”
“It’s 5:30 p.m., and this is a nursing home. The nun let us stay and rest.” Freyja sat down on
the bed and couldn’t help but smile. “Mr. Goldmann went through the trash for half a day
and ended up fainting. It’s going to be big news.”
He squinted. “You’re laughing at me?”
Colton slowly sat up and leaned against the headboard. “Do you think I care about my
passport or ID? Even though getting them back overseas is a hassle, it would just take
fifteen days.”
“Then why did you go?”
“I was afraid that you might blame me if I lost one thing.”
Freyja was surprised when she saw him take out the golden key. How could she not know
what key it was? It was the key to the safebox of the royal bank!
The key symbolized the family. It was a royal gift. Without the key, everything left to her
would just be there to fill up the safe.”
Freyja didn’t know how to feel. “A–Are you stupid?”
“No. You gave it to me because you trust me. If I lost it, I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself.
This was a gift from your grandfather.” He placed the key in her hand. “I can’t let you
down.”
Freyja looked at the key in her hand and pressed her lips together. After a moment, she
said, “I wouldn’t blame you even if you did lose it.”
“$150,000,000 worth of gold, $150,000,000 worth of cash, two cases of antique jewelry. Do
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou know how much that all costs? Even if it was just the cash, that would be a lot of
money, my little rich wife. Are you really alright about losing it? That’s your goldmine.”
“Since when do you talk so much?” Freyja raised her brows and chuckled. “If you lose the
key, I still have
you, my goldmine. You can pay for my expenses.”
Colton squinted. “Didn’t you say that you don’t need me to pay for you?”
Freyja choked. “It’s because-”
“Because you don’t want people to look down on you, right?”
Colton knew her too well. He was able to guess what was on her mind too. “You don’t feel
comfortable about spending my money because you think it’s not yours. You like to make
what is yours and mine very clear. Not only are you afraid that people will look down on
you, but you’re also afraid that I will do the same.”
