Chapter 241
The Next Day
Harry and Rex arrived at Cole at the same time.
Rex greeted him. “Mr. Becker, what a coincidence?”
Harry responded. Quite a coincidence.”
Rex was about to speak when he saw Freya and Johnny coming out to great him and Harry.
Yesterday, Freya had quickly gotten out of Matteo’s car.
What exactly she had said to Matteo afterward, Rex wasn’t sure.
But it couldn’t be denied that, whether at last year’s year end banquet or yesterday’s events, it seemed like Mattes was was the me taking the initiative toward Freya.
Freya, on the other hand, seemed somewhat indifferent toward him.
Rex noticed this and found it puzzling
Freya was quite attractive, and while he could understand other men’s attraction to her, Mattes wasn’t jur angone
Apart from looks, there was no comparison between Freya and Raven.
Rex didn’t understand why Matteo, after getting involved with Raven, would will be interested in Freya.
Freya noticed the cold and somewhat disgusted look kex shot her.
She replied coldly. “Mr. Hardin, do you have something to say to me?”
“Miss Miller, you’re overthinking,” kez said coldly. “I thought we had nothing to discuss.”
Both Johwary and Harry had watched the news of the meeting
They both knew that kez and Freya had met yesterday
Johnny, hearing this, guessed that something unpleasant must have happened between them at the meating
He smiled without reaching his eyes and looked at kex. “Oh? What happened?”
Freya didn’t want to waste time, so before kez could speak, the answered firu, “Nothing”
Then, she turned to Harry and said. “Mr. Berker, please follow me.”
Harry nodded, glanced at Rex, and followed Treya unto the meeting room.
Although Freya and Jobrany didn’t explicitly state it, Johnny knew that their degreement mut have something to do with Lo
That shite Freya didn’t speak, he didn’t prew the matter. He coldly said to kaz, “Mr. Han dan, please.”
After the New Year’s Eve, this was the first time Harry had seen raya again.
When he saw her earlier, his gaze had practically stayed on her.
But, due to the tension between Freys and Kaz, the free of them hadn’t noticed it.
Once inside the meeting room, Harry looked away and, as he sat dower, said, “I had planned to attend yesterday’s meaning but I had to leave for a
Chapter 241
business trip and couldn’t make it. I had someone else attend in my place.”
It was common for clients to chat a little before getting to the main topic.
Freya didn’t think much of it.
She said, “I see.”
Noticing that Freya hadn’t picked up on his intentions, Harry lowered his gaze and changed the subject to business.
Harry had social engagements that evening, so after discussing business, he was ready to leave.
Seeing Harry looking at her, Freya raised her head. “What’s wrong?”
Tomorrow was Valentine’s Day.
But Harry didn’t mention it. He shook his head. “Nothing.”
Freya was so focused on work that she had completely forgotten about Valentine’s Day.
It wasn’t until the next day when she arrived at the office and the people there greeted her with a cheerful “Happy Valentine’s Day” that she suddenly realized what day it was.
Just as she was about to head into her office, a voice called out from the entrance, “Excuse me, is Miss Miller here? Someone has ordered flowers for you. Could you please come out and sign for them?”
Freya turned back, and saw a delivery man holding a large bouquet of red roses standing outside the door.
The delivery man’s words, along with the extravagant bouquet of roses, immediately drew the attention of everyone around.
There had been rumors that Freya and Johnny were romantically involved, but in fact, many people in the company knew that Freya was already married.
However, Freya rarely mentioned her personal life, so most of them were unaware of the details of her marriage.
When they saw someone sending her flowers on Valentine’s Day, some colleagues couldn’t help but remark enviously,
“What a huge bouquet of roses! Is this from your husband? He must be really sweet.”
“Yeah, I’m so envious!”
Freya thought to herself, How could Matteo possibly send me flowers? But she didn’t voice her thoughts.
The card had indeed listed her contact information, which meant the flowers weren’t delivered to the wrong person.
The delivery man, once he confirmed she was Freya, handed her the bouquet and said, “Please sign here.”
Not wanting to make things difficult for the delivery man, Freya signed for the flowers.
Holding the bouquet, she returned to her office.
She opened the elegant card and glanced at it, only to find that the sender hadn’t left a name, simply writing “Happy Valentine’s Day.”
At that moment, Johnny pushed the door open and saw the red roses on the coffee table. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Who sent these?”
Freya shook her head. I don’t know, but the handwriting looks somewhat familiar.”
Johnny chuckled. “Looks like someone has a crush on you. Can you guess who it is?”
Freya shook her head. “I have no idea.”
Johnny stroked his chin thoughtfully.
