Translator: Endless Fantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
At 9 AM.
Connor came to Freya’s company with a bouquet of roses, silently waiting for Freya to appear.
Before he arrived, Connor had called Freya a few times, but she had hung up on him.
Therefore, he could only choose the simplest and most direct way to resolve this: to wait for her at the entrance of Freya’s office.
However, when Connor appeared at the entrance of Freya’s company, he suddenly regretted listening to Yelena’s advice.
He was holding a bouquet of roses and standing downstairs like an idiot.
People passing by here to go to work would cast a strange look at Connor and talk about it from time to time.
However, this wasn’t what made Connor the most embarrassed. What made him the most embarrassed was that a few girls
surrounded him, curiously waiting for the woman he was waiting for to appear.
“Hey, handsome, are you proposing to someone?’1
“Yeah, you’ve been waiting for so long. Why hasn’t the girl appeared yet? Did you spend a lot of money on these roses?”
“I think you re quite infatuated! So, who is the person you want to propose to? Maybe 1 know her...”
The girls around Connor didn’t seem to be able to sit still. From time to time, they would chat with Connor.
However, Connor was not in the mood to pay attention to these girls. He stared at the street not far away.
Ten minutes later, Freya’s white Mercedes finally appeared at the bottom of the building.
Sitting in the car, Freya could not help but bite her lip when she saw Connor standing downstairs.
She couldn’t accept that Connor had slept with another woman. She naturally hated Connor, so she stepped on the accelerator
and wanted to drive past Connor.
However, Connor did not care about the speed of the Mercedes-Benz. He rushed to the middle of the road and blocked Freya’s
path.
“Screech!”
Freya slammed on the brakes, pushed open the car door, and got out.
Freya was dressed very beautifully today. She wore a body-hugging white outfit, her breasts about to burst out the top, and a
black professional skirt that revealed her slender and fair legs. She wore a pair of black high heels, making her look sexy and
elegant. She looked like a goddess.
Even though Connor had seen many beautiful women like Yelena recently, in his heart, Freya was still not something those
women could compare to. Freya’s temperament was especially attractive.
“Connor, are you crazy? Why did you stop my car?”
Freya approached Connor and glanced at the bouquet in his hand.
The girls were shocked when they saw Freya get out of the car.
“I didn’t expect this kid to confess to Ms. Phillips. He’s shameless. How could a woman like Ms. Phillips be with him? Why
doesn’t he take a look at himself!” “That’s right. Ms. Phillips is famous for being cold and aloof. Countless rich heirs in
Porthampton want to pursue Ms. Phillips, but she rejects them. This kid dares to come and pursue Ms. Phillips. Isn’t he asking
for it?”
“He’s really too shameless. He’s not worthy of Ms. Phillips at all!”
A few girls started whispering among themselves.
“What nonsense are you guys talking about? This person is Ms. Phillips’s boyfriend. Ms. Phillips admitted it herself back then!”
At this moment, the beautiful receptionist in Freya’s company spoke up.
“What did you say?”
“This person is Ms. Phillips’s boyfriend?”
“Are you kidding me? How could Ms. Phillips like such a person?”
“Didn’t Ms. Phillips reject Cody Shenaur? How could she possibly be with someone like this?”
When everyone heard this, their expressions seemed to be in disbelief.
“Don’t underestimate Mr. McDonald. Mr. McDonald is also very powerful. If it weren’t for Mr. McDonald’s help back then, our
company might have gone bankrupt long ago!”
The girl had a deep memory of Connor looking for Thomas that day, so she had a good impression of Connor.
On the other side, Connor looked at Freya before him with a hint of nervousness.
Actually, before he came, he had already thought about how he would explain this to Freya when he saw her.
But for some reason, when he saw Freya, Connor didn’t know what to say.
“Freya, the matter was actually...” Connor opened his mouth to explain.
“Connor, you don’t have to explain to me. I’ve already heard about you from Maya. That girl is called Mandy Hines, your ex-
girlfriend. Moreover, to threaten her to get back together, you spread photos of the two of you in bed in school. Moreover, you’ve
always had ‘situationships’ with other women. You even threatened Mandy’s boyfriend with being expelled from school. People
like you are disgusting...’1
Before Connor could finish his sentence, Freya started to blurt.
Connor looked at Freya disappointedly.
He couldn’t understand why Maya kept messing things up. Every time he wanted to do something, this woman, Maya, would ruin
it.
“Freya, it’s not what you think...”
Connor hurriedly said.
“Connor, I don’t want to know what’s happening either. I’ve already thought it through. We should be husband and wife in name
only. I don’t want to interfere in your private life, and please don’t interfere in my life in the future.” Freya replied calmly before
walking toward the office.
Connor looked at Freya and hesitated. He knew Freya was not in the mood to listen to his explanation. Moreover, so many
people were watching, so Connor was too embarrassed to explain the matter in detail.
Therefore, Connor did not waste any time. He grabbed Freya’s arm and walked toward the Mercedes-Benz.
“Connor, what are you doing? Let go of me!’’ Freya shouted.
Connor did not care about Freya’s struggle at all. He pulled Freya to the side of the Mercedes-Benz and pushed her into the car.
Connor opened the car door, sat in the driver’s seat, and started the car without thinking.
The people present were ail dumbfounded. They watched in shock as the Mercedes-Benz disappeared from their sight.
“Is... Is this kidnapping?” A girl stammered when she came back to her senses..
