Chapter 1861 The Tears Of Frida
Levant agreed with Davin. After all, they only needed Zayden’s blood, so Joy did not need to go up.
Evan turned to Nicole, hoping to hear her thought on this.
Nicole kept mum for a moment. She was not particularly interested in the treasure. Besides, she could ask Juan and the rest for an update if she wanted to know more about the treasure. At this point, she was more concerned about Joy’s thoughts about it.
She lowered her head, looked at her precious daughter, and noticed Joy was glaring at Elias and Gale and asked, “Are only boys allowed to go up? Why not girls?”
Nicole and Evan thought she raised a good point. They then turned their attention to Elias and Gale to see their response.
Gale was a forthright person. He raised his voice and said, “Don’t ask so much!”
“Why can’t I go up?” Joy refused to give in, as she felt she was not treated fairly.
Evan and Nicole, too, knitted their brows as they wondered what the reason could be.
Upon seeing the suspicious look on their faces, Elias plastered a smile on his face and explained, “It’s for your own good. Daemonic Mount has an evil aura that can harm young girls. We don’t have that to happen, do we?”
He tried to convince them with another explanation. “We’re doing this not only for your safety. We’re also thinking about Shermaine. If anything bad happens to you, Evan will not let Shermaine off easily.”
What Elias said made sense. Davin just wanted to get this done and leave Daemonic Mount as soon as possible. He stepped forth and said, “He’s right, Evan. I think it’s safer for Joy to stay here and wait for us.”
Sheila also agreed with the arrangement, as she felt they should focus on accomplishing the mission.
Evan leaned forward and looked at Joy. “Mommy will stay here with you, all right?”
Joy thought about it and pouted. She then nodded before shooting daggers at Elias and Gale.
Gale opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but words were stuck in his throat.
Elias lowered his head and avoided Joy’s eye contact.
It’s for your own good!
Nicole and Joy stayed back while the others continued their journey to the mountain. The men even told Frida to come and keep an eye on Joy.
Upon receiving the instruction, Frida rushed over. She was overwhelmed with mixed reactions when she saw Joy standing in front of her. She was excited as if she finally got to meet a long-lost friend, yet at the same time, her eyes were filled with fear.
Frida looked at Joy and gave her a gentle grin. “How have you been?”
Joy froze for a moment. She studied Frida from head to toe before responding with a nod.
When Frida was about to reach out for her hand, Joy immediately put her hands behind her and looked at Frida warily.
“Don’t be scared. I just think you look adorable.”
Nicole felt Frida was overreacting. Why would she react in such a manner when she had never met Joy before this?
“Do you know my daughter?”
Frida lifted his head and looked at Nicole. “Nope. I just like kids very much. You’re very blessed to have given birth to such an adorable daughter. I hope you treat her well!”
“Mommy takes very good care of me. I’m very blessed to have her as my mommy,” Joy said.
Frida turned her attention back to Joy. “That’s good to hear…”
Both Nicole and Joy were puzzled by Frida’s behavior.
Joy looked around and felt the area looked familiar.
