He smiled brilliantly and replied, “Yes, didn’t we agree on having lunch together?”
Freya felt a headache coming in. She couldn’t delve too deeply into the matter with him since he had at talent for avoiding the subject.
“You told me that you had something to discuss with me. What is it? Sit down and tell me.”
With that, he sat down and took the cup of tea that Freya had poured for him. Without any hesitation, he took a sip.
“Kittie, I heard from your brother that you’re pregnant.”
After saying that, he grinned and revealed a row of shining white teeth. I’m here to be the baby’s dad!”
At once, Freya found herself dejected.
Brax has clearly made up his mind about Matthew!
With a frown, Freya pinched her forehead. “Didn’t my brother tell you about my thoughts?”
“He did, Matthew replied bluntly. “He told me that you don’t agree.”
“Since you know that I don’t agree, so why are you here?” Freya gritted her teeth. Apart from anything. else, his personality was not suitable for impersonating the child’s father.
“Because I want to,” he answered expectantly.
He did not seem like someone who wanted to be a child’s father at all.
Freya sneered. “Matthew, it looks like the rumors are true. You’re willing to sacrifice anything to chase after a girl.”
“Kittie, you’re wrongly accusing me. He frowned. “I’m sincere.”
“My baby will need a birth certificate and a household registration after birth. These things require a marriage certificate,” she explained calmly. “You and your Hood family are not a suitable match.”
She didn’t want her child to be confused for a member of the Hood family, not to mention the way the Hoods had treated Matthew.
Her idea was to find a trustworthy person to register for marriage when the child was about to be born. and then divorce after two years. She would pay a fee, but the person must keep it a secret forever.
If it were Matthew, her pregnancy would not be kept a secret at all and would probably create a stir in Caltun.
However, he didn’t mind at all. “Take your time to consider. I’m not in a hurry.”
Freya was so angry with his indifferent attitude that she gritted her teeth. “No, you’re definitely not the one! Matthew, you are my brother’s friend and now my friend too. I don’t want you to end up as a divorced man.”
Η
Matthew’s eyes widened. “We haven’t even gotten married yet, and you’re already thinking about divorce?”
“Kittie, I promise to treat the child as my own. Please think about it,” he reassured.
“Not a chance!” She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. “Did you come here just to discuss this? If that’s the case, let’s forget about it.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Matthew looked aggrieved, but Freya’s firm rejection didn’t deter his determination.
After that, he squinted as he changed the topic. “Alright, we’ll talk about this later. Since I’m already here, you have to treat me to lunch.”
-Freya remembered that she had asked Matthew to come after lunch. Thinking of him carrying roses to
the top floor, she wondered how many people he had caught their attention.
She was afraid that the company would start spreading rumors about her and Matthew again tomorrow.
Freya was both angry and helpless.
Matthew was not a horrible person, but there seemed to be an inexplicable repulsion between their
She always felt that there was a hint of insolence in his demeanor, which was similar to that of a playboy.
“Okay, I’ll treat you to lunch.” She held back her urge to ask him to leave.
It was 2 p.m.
Radley returned to the Monaghans’ mansion, and Connor was already waiting for him there.
In the living room, Daniella was very clear-headed at the moment as she scolded Rosie sternly.
“I can’t believe none of you tell me such a big matter. You’re also at fault. You’ll regret losing such a good daughter-in-law in the future!”
Rosie was a little aggrieved, but she didn’t dare to argue and only muttered under her breath, “I won’t regret it.”
In the past, Rosie looked down on Freya for being soft-spoken and lacking a strong family background. How could a person like Freya deserve her son?
After Radley and Freya divorced, she was even displeased to find out that Freya was the young lady of the Kaufmanns.
The young lady of the Kaufmann family secretly married into their family, and for two whole years, she had never revealed her identity.
No one knew what plans the Kaufmanns had up their sleeves.
“Grandma, don’t be angry. Radley was the one who told us not to tell you,” Hannah whispered as she sat next to Daniella and gently tried to calm her down.
Daniella glared at her granddaughter. She had intended to be fierce, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it. when she saw Hannah’s innocent face.
Turning her head, she glared at Rosie and scolded, “It’s best if you don’t interfere in the matter between Radley and Freya anymore, and keep that Danna away from our house!”
“It wasn’t me who asked Danna to take care of you,” Rosie replied as she looked away.
Hearing that, Daniella angrily slammed the armrest of the sofa in anger. “Why is that woman coming to our house every day? Radley is divorced now and is single. Who knows if she has some ulterior motive for
him!”
Both Hannah and Rosie fell silent.
Daniella only knew that Radley and Freya had divorced, but she didn’t know the role Danna had played in it. If she had known that Danna was a “mistress,” she would have probably fainted from anger.
After entering the house, Radley saw his mother standing before his grandma receiving a lecture.
I know you come from a prestigious family and have a spoiled attitude. You were pampered by your husband in the past, and after his death, your son became a successful man, so you never experienced any setbacks in life. Your attitude has never changed. If you keep going like this, you’ll suffer a big loss sooner or later. Even if you don’t want to change your attitude, you would also have some judgment of character from others!” Daniella rebuked.
Rosie had held her tongue until now. Seeing her son return, she couldn’t help but speak up. “Radley, come and explain it to your grandma.”
Daniella looked at Radley, who had always been her favorite grandson, but now he seemed particularly
irksome.
“I don’t want to hear him talk!” she declared.
“Okay, Grandma, if you don’t want to see me, I’ll go to my study,” Radley replied respectfully as he nodded and intended to go upstairs.
“Wait a minute! You have to get Frey back for me!” Daniella slapped the armrest of the sofa and turned her head to see that Radley had already gone up the spiral staircase.
Radley stopped in his tracks. “Grandma, Freya and I have already divorced.”
As he spoke, he suddenly felt a dull pain in his heart.
“You can still remarry even if you’re divorced!” Daniella’s anger had subsided, and her eyes were s red. “Radley, Frey had been good to you and our family for the two years she had been married t
“If you don’t bring her back now, she will be taken away by someone else. You’ll regret it for the res your life!” Daniella exclaimed urgently.
Radley tightly pursed his lips and replied. “I got
After that, he went upstairs.
1.
After venting her anger, Daniella was now heartbroken as she sat quietly on the sofa.
Hannah sat beside her and comforted, “Grandma, don’t be angry.”
“I’m not angry. I’m just sad, Hannah.
“In the past, you and your mother didn’t approve of Frey. I always believed that a harmonious family is the key to success. Since Frey had always been magnanimous, I might have been too forgiving toward everyone at home.
“Now I truly regret it. If I had been more assertive earlier, perhaps we wouldn’t have ended up like this.” Daniella sighed softly.
Hannah remained silent.
She used to dislike Freya in the past, thinking that Freya was not good enough for her brother.
She also despised Freya’s soft and submissive demeanor.
Every time Freya visited the Monaghans’ mansion with her brother, even if her mother made things difficult for her, she was always like a malleable person without any temper.
She hated people with that kind of personality.
However, she witnessed Freya giving a stern lesson to the bullies who targeted Edward at the university.
Ever since then, she started following Freya’s live broadcast and began to see her former sister-in-law in a new light.
Maybe that’s the real her.
It’s just that during those two years with Radley, she had put away all her sharp edges for him.
Hannah bit her lip and said, “Let’s not talk about the past.”
“Your personality is just like your mother’s. Both of you are stubborn!” Daniella snorted in anger.
Lately, she had been watching Freya’s live streams with her granddaughter, and she knew that Hannah had changed her opinion of Freya.
After speaking. Daniella went back to her bedroom.
In the living room, Rosie showed her anger only after Daniella had left.
“Freya is such a jinx. Although your brother has divorced her, I’m still getting scolded by your grandma because of her!”
