"Sangua City," Lisa thought for a moment, tapping her chin, "If that sounds familiar, how about we head to my place after the shift ends? We can ..." She wiggled her brows, but Aniya could still feel the stinging of Valerie’s slap on her cheek.
"I don’t think so I can..." she hesitated, "last time when I stayed, Mom didn’t like it." frёewebnoѵēl.com
She could feel Lisa’s eyes on her face but thankfully she didn’t interrogate her further, nor she tried to push her for any explanations.
"If you want freedom," Lisa’s voice dropped to a whisper, "then you have to do something about it, Aniya," she went to the bathroom mirror and grabbed a comb. She needed to start working on the ends of her braided hair-tail, "Ever seen a frog left to die in boiling water?" Lisa asked her casually without looking at her, "You know what it does?"
Aniya didn’t reply, not certain where this was going.
Lisa at last turned to meet Aniya’s eyes, "It fights. It keeps fighting for its freedom. You need to do the same. That’s what you have to do. You can’t just sit there and take it."
Aniya couldn’t hold her gaze and looked away. Her friend was right, and it stung.
Lisa sighed and pressed on, "Do you want freedom, Aniya? Or do you want to rot in that hell forever?"
Oh, that struck a nerve. Aniya’s eyes snapped up to her face, "Don’t stop struggling. Don’t stop fighting."
Aniya balled her hand into a fist and held it up to Aniya, "You can’t give up now when you are so close to victory."

Later that evening, they were back at Lisa’s place after their shift ended.
Lisa had her laptop open, scanning articles and profiles related to Sangua.
She was digging about all the influential people of Sangua City, "And here is the hottest, and most talked-about couple of Sangua. Mr. Rafael Sinclair and his wife Mrs. Marissa Sinclair," She announced, turning the screen towards her friend.
There on the screen, she could see a couple where the man was strikingly handsome and wore glasses. He hardly had a silver hair on his head.
The same was the case with his wife. She was beaming while standing beside him.
"The couple lives in Kanderton but both have their hometown at Sangua. Their permanent residence is at Kanderton. I don’t think these are the ones you’re looking for."
Aniya felt confused.
Kanderton.
She had heard about this place too. All those names sounded familiar.
"I need to know about Kanderton," she told Lisa who gestured her to use her laptop. Aniya wasn’t trying to stay tonight but she needed to invest some time for her future. She wouldn’t have much time after her birthday that’s why she wanted to get ready for the smooth move to another country.
There was a family picture of the Sinclairs where they were standing with their kids. She wanted to click on it to have a better look when her phone started ringing.
"Where are you?" Valerie’s stern voice came out of her phone, "At Lisa’s?"
Georgie?

I was into the story but then the translator who was translating it for whatever language to English stopped translating half the words are half English and another language it's very hard to follow a book when you can't understand what the written word is translators need to do better...
