"Except when helping the Imbe Group, I have never tried to trick anyone. What makes you think that I will hurt Ms. Stella, who I have never met?" Freya asked, "If you really think of me like this, you might as well kick me out of the Imbe Group..."
Byron promised to protect Freya.
Hence, he was a little reluctant when he heard this.
But... What Byron was even more afraid of was that after his wife had softened up toward him, she would go back to being cold to him again because of Freya.
He was so careful because he did not want her to abandon him.
Therefore...
"Freya, I'm sorry." Byron said softly, "This matter is not for discussion."
Freya sat in the car.
Her body became stiff as if the blood all over her body was being frozen bit by bit.
Byron had never protected Athena like this, even when Athena had just returned from abroad back then.
Whenever Freya needed Byron, he would leave Athena and come to her side.
Now...
All she tried to do was to be friendly to Chelsea, yet Byron was so on guard.
Why?
"I understand." Freya lowered her eyelids. She knew that pretending to be pitiful and innocent was useless now.
She looked out the window.
In the past five years, Athena had become Byron's obsession. After meeting Chelsea, who was so similar to Athena, this obsession completely turned into a hypocritical and strong love.
Just when Freya was being extremely jealous, her sharp ringtone suddenly sounded.
She thought it was Byron calling back, so she immediately picked the phone up.
However, after seeing the caller ID, she felt like someone had just poured cold water all over her.
It was Collier.
"I'm not going to bring my girlfriend to just an ordinary island, okay? Plus, she needs to buy bags, jewelry, and stuff. Two million dollars is already little!" Collier's tone sounded like he was making perfect sense.
Freya gritted her teeth. "I don't have that much!"
"If you don't, go ask Byron!" Collier instantly yelled at the top of his voice.
"Didn't you read the news? Byron married someone else! How can I ask him?" When Freya said this, her heart was bleeding.
This was the last thing she wanted to admit.
Yet, she had to use it to convince her greedy family!
"I don't care. My girlfriend is going to the best island in the Maldives. She has to buy bags and jewelry. Without this, she will break up with me. I love her. If she breaks up with me, it will kill me. If my life is ruined, I'll ruin your life too. I'll call Byron and tell him the truth, and you and I will both go to hell!"
Collier sounded like a rascal.
"Collier!" Freya roared hoarsely.
Collier did not care at all.
