THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 265

Good news?

What good news?

Keira blinked in surprise at Stephanie’s words.

But before she could even react, Stephanie’s voice came through the phone again, urgent and bubbling with excitement. “Grandma, we found Freya! She’s in Silverhaven right now. My mom and I—we’ve already decided to head there right away and bring her home!”

“What?” Keira’s headache vanished. The ache in her back disappeared, too. Suddenly, it felt like every ounce of energy had returned to her body. She shot upright in bed. “Stephanie, what did you just say? Say it again!”

Though Keira hadn’t put the phone on speaker, Amanda couldn’t make out what was being said on the other end, but she was sure this call from the Richards family must be about Ann—surely they were calling to praise her daughter.

If it wasn’t Hannah gushing about Ann, there was no way Keira would be this worked up.

Maybe—maybe Hannah was even mentioning Ann and Daniel’s situation.

The more Amanda thought about it, the more excited she became. She wanted to say something, but didn’t dare interrupt Keira’s conversation.

Stephanie continued, “Yes, Grandma, you heard me right, you didn’t mishear—Freya has been found. She looks just like Carey and Stuart, and she’s absolutely outstanding. I’ve already sent the DNA test results to your WhatsApp. Open it and you’ll see for yourself.”

In fact, the WhatsApp message had arrived five minutes ago, but Keira had been too lazy to check her phone while lying in bed.

So she had no idea Stephanie had already sent her anything.

Now, for a moment, Keira’s mind went completely blank.

She wasn’t imagining things.

She wasn’t hearing voices.

They had really found Freya.

After all these years, hope was finally within reach.

Keira started to laugh and cry at the same time. Her emotions were a whirlwind, overwhelming and raw.

Even after Stephanie hung up, Keira still sat there, lost in her own world.

Seeing her mother like this only made Amanda more certain that Hannah must have sung Ann’s praises to the heavens.

Her Ann was so exceptional—she deserved it.

How could a dead person suddenly have news?

Keira must be thinking about Freya because of Ann.

Yes, that had to be it.

No wonder her daughter always complained that Keira played favorites.

Looking at it now, she really did.

Ann should have been the center of attention today.

Ann was the one who’d won Hannah’s favor.

Yet, in this moment, Keira’s first thought was still of Freya.

Ann had said it herself: No matter how exceptional she was, she could never measure up to Freya in Keira’s eyes.

Amanda frowned slightly, a bitter taste rising in her mouth. Still, she swallowed her feelings, stepped forward to the bedside, and tried to steady her voice. “Mom, what exactly did the Richards family say to you? Take a deep breath. Tell me slowly.”
