Seeing that he was about to leave, she asked anxiously, "How... How long would it take?"

She immediately regretted it after asking him that question. Since young, she hated being a woman due to the patriarchy practices within her family. Because of that, she never relied on anyone. But now, she was slowly starting to rely on him and was actually worried that he would just ditch her.

"I'll be back very soon," he answered.

"Alright," she replied.

After Matthew left the room, she curled herself up in the blanket as she felt a sense of helplessness. Luckily, he returned shortly after with two sets of clothes-one of them men's clothing while the other women's clothing. They looked simple since they were off-the-rack clothing.

Matthew looked down as he threw the clothes onto the bed. "You should change into them first. I'll be waiting outside the door. Let me know if you need anything." He then headed out and shut the door. She had mixed feelings as she looked at the clothing in front of her. She stretched her hands out to touch the female clothing. Although it wasn't anything fancy, she had a strong urge to try it out. Growing up, she never had the urge to dress like a woman.

For the longest time, her only wish was to make herself stronger; she wanted to be better than all the men within her family so that the elders would look up to her and not despise her just because she was a

woman.

At one point, she even felt that being a woman was a disgrace; just because she wasn't a man, she was worse off. The thought of dressing up as a woman never crossed her mind, and she even looked down on Zoey for always wearing eye-catching clothes. But now, she had a strong urge to try it on and would be content even if she only put it on for a minute.

However, after a round of contemplation, she decided against it. She then reached for the male clothing and put it on before telling Matthew to enter the room. The atmosphere got rather awkward as both of them stood inside.

Soon after, Matthew spoke. "Gregory and Lord Voodoo must have gone to look for Freya, so we shouldn't stay here for too long."

"Alright, let's find a hiding spot first. I will contact my family and get them to bring us back!"

After leaving the place, they got into the car and drove away. It took them less than two hours to reach another urban district next to Granville. Once they settled down, the first thing Tristan did was to contact her family.

Matthew gave a call to Crystal too. After finding out that she was in the plane headed to Eastcliff, he let out a sigh of relief. He was initially worried that Freya would make things hard for Crystal after he ran away. However, based on this, he could tell that Freya was a principled woman.

She had to let Crystal go so that she could save Raven, but since she had promised Matthew that she wouldn't hurt Crystal, she kept her promise even after the man had run away. Although Freya was a vicious woman, she was a woman of her word-this impressed him greatly.

After the call ended, there was finally a trace of joy on Tristan's face. "Dr. Larson, my family will be sending some of our top fighters over, and they will be reaching within three hours." "That's great." He nodded.

"Even if Freya is highly capable, she wouldn't expect us to leave Granville

in just three hours. They won't be able to locate us here for the time being, so we'll just have to remain in hiding for now."
