Chapter 432 Say It Again
Chapter 432 Say It Again
Only a few maids were cleaning, along with Radley and Freya in the living room.
She pursed her lips and hesitantly asked, “Radley, I received a video call from Izzy this morning. She told me that the Monaghan Group is targeting the Hood Group. Is that true?”
He didn’t raise an eyebrow or move his eyes. He lowered his head and looked at the documents in his hand. “Shouldn’t I handle him? He took you away from ine.
Freya frowned slightly. “It’s not Matthew’s fault. I didn’t want you to see me in that state, so I asked him to bring me to Mutrya”
“Frey, I know you didn’t mean it that way, but I understand Matthew’s intentions. Radley’s gaze was intense. He could ignore everything else, but daring to have intentions toward Freya was already pushing. it. It was a miracle that he didn’t throw Matthew off the rooftop last night.
She sighed lightly, but he didn’t react.
She blinked her eyes and quietly hooked her small hand onto his arm before she sighed again.
The corners of the man’s mouth stiffened.
Freya sighed and looked extremely worried for the next half an hour.
Until the chef in the dining room came out and respectfully said, “Sir, madam, breakfast is ready.”
Radley stood up and offered his hand to Freya. “Let’s have breakfast. You need to eat to have the energy to sigh.
She clenched her teeth and supported her forehead with her hand. “I can’t eat.”
He narrowed his eyes and bent down, with one hand supporting the back of the sofa chair, and approached Freya.
“Are you trying to provoke me?”
“No.”
Freya’s timid and cute appearance blinked her eyes. “Radley, you know you’re the only one in my heart now. I only see Matthew as a friend. I don’t care about his feelings for me, but I won’t respond. Matthew is also a longtime friend of my brother, and the relationship between the Hood family and the Kaufmann family is at stake. It will be difficult for my family if you act like this.”
Freya tried to reason with him.
Radley’s breath gradually became dangerous. “But he desires you.”
She smiled. “But I don’t like him. I like you. Anyway, if the Kaufmann family faces difficulties later, I don’t know if my brother will make it difficult for you when you come to propose. I am a person who values tradition, and if my family doesn’t agree at that time, I won’t be able to marry you.”
“Propose?”
His mood improved a lot. Yet, when he thought Freya was pleading for Matthew, he snorted and entered the restaurant.

Freya followed eagerly, and her two small hands awkwardly grabbed his sleeve.
“Radley? Rad? Can you please not argue with him? Just think of it as doing it for me. When I disappeared, the Hood family also helped you. If you push the Hood Group to the brink of bankruptcy, my brother will use my family’s money to help the Hood family.”
She looked adorable. “If my family loses money, I’ll make you compensate for it. After all, it’s your fault.”
He sneered and replied, “You’re quite good at keeping accounts
Freya smiled. “Is that okay?
He thought for a moment. “What did you just call me?”
“Radley?” Freya Kaufmann was surprised. Seeing that his expression didn’t change, she asked again, “Rad?”
Radley’s eyebrows furrowed.
Freya squinted her eyes, knowing he would not give in if there weren’t sweet talk.
She tiptoed and leaned close to his ear.
The words floated lightly like a breath, and he grabbed the person trying to escape and held her waist.
“Repeat it.”
She coughed lightly. She thought her face was thick enough, but she couldn’t say it out loud.
“We’re not married yet.” Freya glared at Radley angrily.
He saw the blush on her face and didn’t bother her anymore. “Let’s eat first.”
Freya knew he was going to help. She followed him into the restaurant. They couldn’t finish all the food, so she fed him.
After finishing the meal and stepping into the living room, she played with her phone beside him.
Radley looked up. “Frey.”
“Yes?” She looked up.
“I can temporarily stop dealing with the Hood Group’s affairs. Yet, if Matthew does it again…” Radley’s tone became heavier. “You can’t always make me compromise.”
Her expression became serious. Matthew had already provoked Radley more than once.
Last time, when Radley targeted the Hood Group, she was the one who persuaded him.
She frowned. The responsibility still fell on her in the end. Yet, she explained that she had no other feelings for Matthew several times.
I understand.” She pursed her lips. Braxton needed to have a serious talk with Matthew.
Radley and Freya stayed in the living room until noon. In the afternoon, she walked into the garden and returned with a pale face.
Radley on the sofa looked up.
Freya clenched her lips and quickly went upstairs, rushing into her bedroom.
Upon seeing this, he immediately stood up and wanted to follow. Yet, he stopped seeing Freya’s fleeing appearance.
He furrowed his brow, wanting to share some of her pain, but she didn’t want him to see her like this.
He immediately called a few experts to go upstairs. He could only wait quietly on the first floor.
Time passed by slowly.
They could hear the Faint struggling sounds upstairs.
Radley’s hand clenched into a fist, his knuckles turning white.
No matter where Jamie was, Radley was determined to find him and make him pay!
It wasn’t until evening that the sound finally disappeared.
An hour later, Freya, her face pale and her steps unsteady, descended the spiral staircase.
Upon seeing Radley standing by the sofa, she smiled forcefully and said, “I came down to have dinner. I’m so hungry.”
His eyes flickered slightly, and he hugged her, saying, “Alright, let’s have dinner.”
In the following days, Freya’s pain gradually diminished. She received news from Isabella that Matthew had returned to Caltun, and the confrontation between the Monaghan Group and the Hood Group had ended. Only then did Freya finally feel relieved.
With some free time these days, Freya would video call a few people whenever she didn’t have an episode. She greeted Daniella and Rosie and sent a video to her master and Mrs. Lane..
As she was absent for so long, her master was angry and scolded her during the call. “I thought something had happened to you and was about to inquire!”
Freya’s heart sank, but she smiled and replied, “What could have happened? I came to Mutrya for a vacation.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
She sat in the living room at noon, counting on her fingers. It had been twelve days since she quit.
There would be a huge hurdle at the one-month mark, and if she could successfully overcome it, she could go home in three months!
